A fabulous day...

(lots more pictures to come.... Such a beautiful ceremony. I learned so much!)

Memories from Layne's Camera

Yesterday I found Layne's Point and Shoot camera that I wanted him to take with him on his snowmobiling trip. When he turned it on to check out the pictures these are what they found. I just coudln't believe it.  These are typical Jayci and Ellie pictures. I couldn't help but laugh at these of her in her high chair because this is just something that she would do. I Put her in her high chair and she turns around and gets stuck. Seriously, she cracks me up!

The next batch are the only decent pictures I have of those two wrestling. The ones I have are very dark and blurry. I was so excited to see these. This is just typical of their relationship. I LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM!!!

BOUNCE, BOUNCE, BOUNCE

A few nights ago I was doing stuff in the kitchen and Laney was not happy I had her in the living room by her self so I figured I'd run down stairs and pull out the airplane. The other girls started using it around this time and enjoyed it so I thought I'd give it a try. Well, it was a hit she lasted over an hour, 90% of that time her tounge was hanging out and she was all smiles. It helped getting a lot of extra loves from her sister. I truly am so blessed to have Ellie! She is my saving grace, best friend, and super helper. Not to mention she LIVES for her sisters and you can tell in the way she treats them.

Airplane Babies - All three of them


 Ellie June (Jim-Ashloom)

Jayci Lillian ("the Beast") 

Laney Marcine (goobey-that is just what I call her not a true nick name yet)

All three of my girls have played in the Airplane. I love that you can definately tell they are sisters and all are about the same age.  It cracks me up the looks on all their faces. It's the look I get all the time like "Get the heck out of my FACE with that stupid camera!"  I am so lucky to call these baby girls my daughters.

What I would give to have them all in one place, at the same time, for just one minute....

Going to the temple...

(Rexburg Idaho LDS Temple)

I am so grateful for the opportunity I have to go to the temple. I am embarrassed to say that it's the first time Layne and I have gone since Jayci passed away. It's not that I haven't wanted to go but It's just been a little hard to think what if I go and I won't be able to feel Jayci there. But as I talked with another angel Mom she gave me a few things to think about as I went in and what it really came down to was the attitude that I carried as I went through a session. And as I went through I knew she was with her Mom. I did a few goofy things and I know she was there having a good time frustrating her mom.  But the best reminder I had all day was that my family is forever. That if I continue doing the things I'm suppose to be doing and being a good person I will get to be with my husband and daughters for all eternity! I love to see the temple and love the blessings it brings into my life....

(this is as good as it got. Perhaps it was a WEE bit bright!) 
The reason why we actually went today was to go through with Layne's little sister as she took out her own endowment. It was a good experience all around. I am so proud of her for the decision she has made to be married in the temple and have her family sealed for time and all eternity.

Sisters and Best Buddies

 
 
 

(I love the Laney is consistently attacking Ellie. It sure does my heart good!)

Dear Ellie and Laney,
I hope you two know how much your mom and dad love you.
Watching you two play together puts a little patch back on that huge gaping hole in my heart!
I thank my Heavenly Father for the love and light you two add to our lives.
I pray everyday that you both continue to grow healthy and strong. That you continue to talk about memories of your sister.
That you never forget her and always keep her as a part of your life. 
Heavenly Father really does hear and answer our prayers.
Always remember to take a knee...
I love you both more then you will ever know.

Love you to the moon and back,
Mom

Ellie Funnies

"Conversation with Granny June"

Granny get's out of the car and says "I need to use the rest room."

Ellie says "You need to go potty?"

Granny "Yes"

Ellie says "Okay I'll take you."

(Granny could not even tell me the story because she was laughing to hard. I thought it was so cute she wanted to help.)



"Sacrament Meeting 08/09/08"

Ellie "Mom where is your bag"

Dad "Do you want a snack?"

Ellie "Yeah" Cough Cough Cough
Dad preceeds to get her a treat but she started gaging a little bit. Chokes spits up a little bit, and Layne catches it in his hand.
Ellie (look of disgust) "Dad go throw it in the gabage that is DISGUSING"
So Layne gets up and washes his hands.
(I about peed my pants laughing)


"This Morning 08/18/09"

I was in the kitchen making hot chocolate. Which I LOVE. Ellie decides she wants some to. But I was watching my TV show and told her to wait a minute. She was not going for that so she grabbed my arm and says "Pease Mom your the best". I love it when she says that, how can you tell her to hold on then?!



"On our way home from Twin. 8/22/09"

Ellie was whinny in the back seat and Layne started to mimic her and she got really mad and said. "Dad quit being a whiner."



"Tonight sitting on my lap in the Kitchen 9-08-09"

Ellie: I wanna get married

Mom: dieing of laughter "what did you say"

Ellie: I wanna get married

Dad: Not till your thirty!

Ellie: Ok



10/05/09

All of us playing make believe after dinner?!

Ellie: Mom you be Ellie, I'll be Dad and Dad be mommy because you have a Belly like mommy... (I laughed so hard)

So she wanted some dinner and said while deepening her voice "Darlin bring me some dinner"

We were laughing way to hard to keep playing... She was on one that night



12/02/09

After bringing Jayci home from the hospital.

Ellie: Mom why is Jayci eating your boob?(said so disgustedly)

Mom: because that is how she gets her food.

Ellie: Can she eat my boob?



01/24/2010

Getting ready for church.

I curled Ellies hair this morning and put a cute flower in it. She was wearing a new dress with her boots. I told her she looked rockin. She says "yeah i'm rockin" I tried to get her to put her coat on but she said "no mom I want to show dad how fashionable I am" Seriously what three year old talks like that.
02/08/10
Setting the scene: Ellie walks out of my room with just a t shirt on. I ask her. Where are your pants. She says: Mom their wet! well why or they wet. With her hand on her hip and shaking her finger at me she says "Because moder I had an Asserdent"
