March Pics

Jace turned 8 months in March. He is now army crawling EVERYWHERE. I actually have to vacuum now:) Carson loves to wrestle with him on the love sac and to my amazement Jace actually likes it. Jace is still super cuddly and I love it!

Grammy Bowen came down for a visit and we took the boys to see Gram.

Carson being a little Cowboy. Sometimes I feel guilty because he entertains himself so much that I don't really do much. As you can tell from this picture I am laying in bed at like 7:00 at night:)

This Itty Bitty session was much more successful than the last one! He actually played and promised me that he wouldn't just sit in the corner anymore:)

February Update

We are finally getting around to some of the cosmetic fixes to the house. We had great drywallers that Brad works with come and fix all the major cracks & nail pops. I think it is one of those "its going to look worse before it gets better" type of things but at least we are making progress!

We had cracks in every room of the house which means 6 paint colors to touch up! We have actually finished with 4 of them but we have lost motivation to finish the rest:)

Thanksgiving point is a great place to go in the winter. I love Carson's face in the this pic:)

This was the boys favorite part. It is a giant sand place with water and little toys to play with.

Out to dinner with the Fam for my late B-day

Jace & Great-Grandpa Ulrich

Yes, this is Brad sewing a luv sac! Uncle Dain moved to Idaho and didn't have room for it so he is letting us borrow it for the time being. It tore while being shoved in the back of our car so Brad just whipped out his sewing kit and presto! All fixed!

Carson giving Jace "loves" (whether Jace wants them or not:)

Carson showing off all the great stuff Grammy & Papa Bowen got him for V-Day.

Tubby Time

The boys getting their clean on!

Carson loves to wrestle with Jace. I am thinking that maybe Jace doesn't love it quite as much:)

Itty Bitty Basketball!!

We attempted our first organized sporting clinic with Carson in January and let's just say it didn't go quite as we had hoped. (Brad's retirement plan is getting Carson involved in professional sport:)

This is pretty much what he did the whole time, after I could convince him to let go of my leg that is!

He did like getting his certificate and meeting Lenny the Lion

We are going to attempt again in March - hopefully it will go better:)

Farewell Elder Ulrich!!!

My brother Ryan reported to the MTC on January 6th. He will be serving the people of Singapore! We are so proud of him, we will miss him, we know he will be blessed and will bless those around him for accepting the call to serve! Love you Bro!!!

Christmas Nativity 2009

This year for Christmas my mom arranged for us to be in a live nativity! Her Neighbor does this at their farm in their stable. It was a great experience!

Live animals and all:)

Me & Jace enjoying the show.

Carson was a wise man, we loved his hat!

Aunt Denise keeping Jace warm.

The boys having a snowball fight

Me about to shove this snowball in Nanci's face!

Nanci & Mom

All the boy cousins got Cars slippers from Grammy & Grandpa Olsen

Christmas Eve

We let everyone open one gift before we headed up the the Ulrich Family party. This was Jace's favorite part of his:)

The cousin's gift exchange - this year we decided to coordinate and got them all transformers - made for a more peaceful evening!

Carson and his cheesy smile

This was Uncle Ryan's last Christmas before he leaves on his mission - he got a great camera to capture Singapore!
