in order - least recent to most recent.
cute Emery reading to her brother in her crib after a nap. they laid in there together for 1/2 an hour. there is nothing better than watching my kids love each other.
emery with a 103+ fever. tired mom. hungry van. what will i do when i have 3 kids? 4? 5?
Aaron's biggest chalk bag batch to date. all while finishing his masters and helping take care of a wild squirrel and a new baby. he's my hero.
Great Grandpa Wimmer bouncing Emery and singing the song he sings to all the grandkids. it's still a magical song for me when i see him do it and i'm 25. :)
family Thanksgiving hike
we loved the beach with Bekah and Russ-Russ. and yes, we were terribly far from the sand. it was just awful. :)
fun in the tub. russ is the funniest, most fun loving kid ever. oh, russell, you'd like to marry emery? of course! we'll take you!
Van and the beach winds didn't really get along. nice bubbles, buddy.
Van's 1's plane ride - cool sunset, eh?
em was a little wild on the plane ride home from the beach - thanks for coming with us to tame the wild squirrel, Grandpa
"uhhh, mom, help. are you trying to let her kill me?"
Em's super cute friend Aiden in Cedar - taught her how to dip her graham crackers in milk. love him. obviously she does too. look at her smile at him. 
Em's cute little BFF Skye in Cedar - these girls were nothing but the cutest friends on the planet. Skye is adorable. and her parents are equally as wonderful. we miss them like crazy.
emery's lovely smile for her requested "green eggs and ham" breakfast. she gobbled it up.
Van's favorite nap spot while we were in Orem for Christmas - on Auntie Amy
Emery wouldn't hold still for a picture with us at the Eve Eve bonfire, so here are the rest of us.
with Grandpa at the Eve Eve bonfire
one of the angels in the Christmas Eve nativity - complete with yelling "Away in a Manger" and "Joy to the World", stomping and dancing all over the stage and finally, flashing the audience. is it just me or is her halo a little crooked?
Christmas morning shot!
"hey, it's Christmas, and i'm fat. what's it to ya?"
favorite Christmas present - huge princess stickers that mom didn't ration. she used them all in 5 minutes. :)
1st playing in the snow - with her snowman! she now asks to build snowmen in Las Vegas.
exercises with auntie amy
best 2 year old birthday party ever - a life-size Dora balloon, her family wearing Dora party hats, a Dora cake (see here), ice cream, soda, pizza. perfect.
"mom, why is my head so big? this is hard."
did i mention my son had a pony tail?...
not anymore - meet "the square German head" (term coined by his Great Grandpa Wimmer upon seeing the buzz)
emery's "fishy party" (think tea party with fish instead) with the 7 dwarfs
so sad when they turned off the neighborhood hot tub.... so they improvised. yes, Aaron is wearing a swim suit.
how Aaron found us upon returning home from work one day - being "fancy" (like Fancy Nancy). yes, Van is wearing a skirt. and leggings. and a bow.

Britt! I miss you so much! Thanks for all the great pictures. It looks like you guys are having a blast out there. Cute Emery and Van are growing up!
HAHAHA I laughed so hard at some of your pictures. You're so cute! Van has seemed to get even bigger since Christmas time. We miss you. :o)
Those are such cute pictures! You guys have been having a good time it looks like! We sure miss you! I love the last pic all dressed up! :)
I was so excited to see so many pictures! I was also glad I commented on your blog, because I got to see your new family picture at the top. You look dang cute! And Emery keeps getting cuter everyday. She must have your genes. :)
I laughed so hard at the Fancy Nancy picture, especially since I have read it with Emery. And the chubby Van picture was also a classic. Oh, and way to go Aaron on the chalkbags. We sure miss you guys as neighbors. Hope the house-hunt is lots of fun!!
love fancy nancy.
Love all the pictures..and I love the one at the top of your blog, it is super cute, who took it?
I love the final picture... it's classic! Isn't that what mommy-hood is all about?? ;)
I love the update, you're such a fun mom!
You'll do fine with 3 or 4 or 5--or even 6 or 8 or 10. Emery and Van will be old enough to help. Or at least sensible enough to stay away when you're losing it. (And if it doesn't turn out to work so well, I am willing to pay top dollar for any baby you're willing to sell me!)
Oh my gosh. Look at her smiling at Aiden! That picture is so precious of the two of them. I'm so glad we got to know you guys and they became friends.
Van looks so different since I last saw him. I am so excited to see you all again. Do you see the look of love on Russell's face when he's looking at Em. Funny.
Stinking cuteness! We miss you guys!
