So today my son tried to get a toy basket ball hoop that was held on by suction cups off the window and broke the darn thing into two pieces. He brought the broken piece to my husband, who proceeded to call him the incredible hulk. I said to just throw the thing into the garbage but Jerika persisted that it could be fixed and took it and the other piece off the window and went in the kitchen. I heard her rummaging through the junk drawer and slink off to where I could not see her. Now I am not stupid so I asked her to show me what she had in her hands and it was super glue. Scary huh. Well my husband decided to do the gluing, smart move, and fixed the hoop backboard.

He then put the lid on the super glue and put it on the table, where Trenton was playing. I know what was he thinking. I was in the living room when Trenton started screaming and rubbing his eye. I ran into the kitchen to see super glue all over his eye.

I yelled for my husband to help and we worked to get it off his eye. I was worried that he got it on his eyeball, but the advise nurse I called said if he got it on his hand first and then rubbed his eye that he would have closed it first, which is what happened. I yelled for Jerika to get the camera. You know you have to take a picture of a super glued eye. The advice nurse agreed with me, so don't judge.
Here are the pics.

Here are the most recent pictures of my kids.





So last night at family home evening we made Carmel apples. Jacqueline and I had been to the mall to pick up the pictures we had taken two weeks ago and we roamed the whole mall. In one of the chocolate stores there were amazing Carmel apples. We decided that we would do it for Family night and headed to the store. We surprised the kids and had such a fun time.
Here are some pictures of our adventure.




We had our baby Tyler (new name Jonathan) for an over-nighter this last week and it was fun.
This is the second time his birth mom has asked us to baby sit him overnight. We love to do it, it is so fun having all five our our kids together. He loves it too, he remembers our home and loves to be there with all his siblings. Her are a few pictures we took of him.

Jacqueline turned six today. I can not believe how lucky and blessed I feel to have this amazing child in my life. She is so sweet and loving. I call her my little love bug. She is constantly telling me she loves me and is so happy. She is such a joy. One thing that really amazes me about her is how she bounces back to her happy self even after she just had a terrible fall, or just got in trouble and feels sad. Then just moments later, she is as happy as a lark and dancing about doing cartwheels. She just has so much joy inside that it is hard for her to stay upset or angry for long at all. What a wonderful quality for a person to have.
She is remarkable, plus she is so easy to parent, she has her moments when she can be a little disobedient but mostly she is just plain helpful, loving and kind. Jacqueline loves to talk to her parents, she is a chatterbox and always has something to say about her life,and stories to tell about what is happening in her little six year old world. I tell her she gets that from me, we are chatterboxes together. I love my newest little six year old.

So we were told to have a 72 hr kit in case of an emergency. A bag we can grab and head out it seconds that will sustain us for 3 days. Well we have them, but every conference time you are supposed to go through them and update them so they are not all expired food. So we did that for the first time ever. It was funny because so much of the food was so old, ones we did in 2006 particularly. So I headed out to Costco to get the needed supplies.

Then with the kids we updated all their backpacks. The kids loved it. It is funny because they didn't even remember that we had them for them. Here we are after finishing up our kits. So we are ready. Lets just hope we dont have an emergency and have to use them.

We went to the Zoo yesterday. We got there at 3:30, it closes at 5. But we only went because we were so excited to see the new Lion exhibit and it did not disappoint at all. It was so amazing. You are up close and personal with all the cats and it is really cool. Here are some pictures of our trip.









We also headed out to the eagle exhibit and the kids played in the nest. We walked into the enclosure and were only feet away from a bald eagle, with no glass between us. Scared me a bit, but I guess they would not do that if it was not safe.
Aren't they cute little birds?

I love Curlformers. I just bought some at Sally's (the only place they sell them.) They are so easy to use and do the best curls ever.

Here are some examples of my kids curls.

The curls are so amazing. I took out Jennedy's bottom Layer too early, but the top looked awesome.

We had a great FHE on Monday. We talked about Nephi building his boat, and faith. Then we built a boat and the treat was boats that we made too. They were so yummy and the kids had a blast.
