HAPPY THANKSGIVING...

Since my family had Thanksgiving last night I thought I would start early and list things that Zach and I are grateful for:

1. Our Children

2. Our Home

3. Family and Friends have showed so much love and concern for us

4. Our food shortage

5. The love that we have for each other

6. A loving Heavenly Father who has truly listened to our prayers and has blessed with so much!

So we have a crazy month...so here are a few of the top agenda items. 

Zach and Kins: We are stay pretty busy with both work and church.  We are having fun by going out on our date nights and have been able to see friends that have moved or just being alone is always nice.  I am still at Datamark and I am becoming a water aerobics instructor.  Zach is busy at the Hotel and takes good care of the fam.

Izac: What can I say other than he is growing up.  He turned 6 on Sept 9th, lost his second tooth, cheers for BYU which are 4-0, and most of all started Kindergarten.  He goes to all day Kindergarten and loves his teacher and hot lunch.  I can't believe how big he is getting.

Dannie: She keeps us entertained and on our toes.  She is in love with her new princess shoes that her dad has bought her, loves her hair to be done and as you can tell from the pictures,  loves her makeup.  She wanted to go to school with Izac, but now that she realizes all the attention she get from being home with Mom or with Vicki, and she is in heaven.

Jack: Baby Jack Jack is my big boy and comes in at a good 24lbs.  3lbs Behind is big sister.  He wants to be just like his big brother and sister and is learning how defend himself against Dannie.  I think he might be my quickest walker!  We will be celebrating his 1st Birthday in 3 weeks!!!!

Curls, curls, curls.  THis is all this little lady wants.  She loves her sponge curlers!  We have to put them in all the time.

Here is my jumping Jack.  This boy loves to jump and even gets air.  He is crawling all over the place and won't stay still for the life of me.  I must be getting old because I cannot seem to keep up with this one.

The boys...We had Brandon and Ashlie boys over for a few nights while they went and had a fun time in Mexico.  If you notice Izac got his first black eye. It was his own doing...he was jumping all over the couch!

Good Morning and Happy Birthday Dad...ok so I know I am a little late and a big slacker, but Zach did turn 29 in July .  We had a good day and from the mess on Dannie's face we had some good cupcakes.

Dinner at the Lybbert's House

Though dinners usually come from the oven, this is the kids favorite and in this fashion. Yum, spoon anyone?

Baby Jack in July

9 months and not crawling, but that is not to say that he is on the move.  We roll here and there.  He loves to play with the pots and pans and stays very busy!

Dannie in July

Still not potty-trained, but still taking off our diaper as you can see.  Though still trying to fashionable, I think the socks go great with her skin color.  Don’t you agree?!!

 

Izac in July

So once again we plowed up the back....but this time with a plan.  Our goal over the next year is to finally get the backyard done so the kids can go and play and Zach can get a dog!

Day at the Park

Baby Jack

Yes he has a diaper on. He is not like Dannie who wants hers off. Jack keeps on growing and growing. He loves to have things in mouth at all times and that includes food. My prayer is that he will start rolling over, however, we have not reached this point. He is just like his brother, cute and big!!! Wouldn't want it any other way.

Dannie

So, here are Dannie's two sleeping patterns: 

1) PJ's stay on, the shoes stay on, but the jammies come off

2) The PJ's come off, the shoes come off (but stay on the bed), and the diaper comes off.  Usually the diaper was on the floor, however, she left me a beautiful surprise underneath.  I was lucky because usually it is on the walls and bed for my cleaning pleasure.

Izac

Izac is 5 and growing.  Boy this kid may be skinny, but he weighs a ton.  He is not my baby any more.  

I have learned a lot  from Izac over the past couple of weeks.  We had a family night to learn about sacrifice..  We asked Izac what he would be willing to give up to help out for a fundraiser for a family in need.  To my surprise, he wanted to give up a very important and expensive bear of his.  I was convinced that there was something else to give and he would not budge.  He told me it would help the family and that it would be ok.  Maybe it was mom who needed a lesson in sacrifice.  He is a great kid.

We are joining the blog world

So I finally did it.  I'm now part of the blog world.  Please don't expect miracles.  The Lybbert's are going great.  Not much is new in our world other then staying busy.  We hope everyone is doing well.
