Riding horses and turning 4!

Life has been a little crazy these past couple of months.  We are now in Silver City and have been for almost a month.  It has finally settled down a bit and we are finding our new norm!  We enjoyed a great Thanksgiving with Uncle Chuck, Ashley, Sam and their beautiful babies Benjamin and Scarlet.  I am currently 32 weeks along and on modified bed rest which means stay down as much as possible.  It is a bit difficult with my crew but we try!  Here are some updated photos of the kids.  They are getting so big and independent these days.  Dallin and Clara just turned 4 on November 27th.  Dallin has been telling everyone that he is four!  They are excited and enjoy being the big kids!

 Bennett playing on the swing set.  He is a monkey and his new favorite words are "I do."  He doesn't want anyone to do anything for him!  It is a bit frustrating at times but all I keep telling him is it is a good thing he is cute or else...
 Ava is our sweet and mellow baby.  She loves her big sister and follows her everywhere.  Her favorite phrases are "silly" and "no!"  She has an independent streak in her but as long as everyone leaves her alone and she gets what she wants when she wants it, she is perfect!
 Clara on the horse at Uncle Chuck's house.  She loves riding the horse and wanted to go all by herself!
 Ava and Daddy on the horse.  She was so mad and cried a lot when we took her off!  She didn't want to get off her horse!
 Bennett and Daddy on the horse.  I love this picture because they have the exact same expression!  And Mason doesn't think Bennett is his kid!
 Dallin and cousin Benjamin on the horse.  They were constant buddies over the holiday weekend.

We are 4!  Dallin requested a Spiderman cake and Clara requested a Princess Tiana cake.  I am a little "caked" out this year, but they loved them.  They had a great birthday filled with lots of phone calls from our favorite people and more than enough presents and goodies!  I cannot believe they are four already.  How time flies when you are always pregnant  busy with life!  They are a joy in our lives and keep us on our toes every moment of the day.  Happy Birthday my little big kids!
