long time

It has been waaaay tooo long since I have last done this. I have recently had so much happen in our lives and so many amazing miracles and blessings!!
To start Niko is 6 months and Meeka is now 3yrs. I can't believe I'm actually saying that. A beautiful boy and girl. how lucky are we!! I couldn't be more happy and they are both healthy, Niko is officially a chunk but we love it. He is a rolling machine and that's how he gets around these days and he's into everything!! He wants to crawl soo bad it's cute, he gets on his tummy and does what I call this fish out of water flap. He flaps his lefs and tries to push himself forward. So hopefully pretty soon he'll be crawling :) If he's like Meeka though it'll be a few more months.
Meeka had her eyes checked for the first time and went to the dentist this year. All new things for her and she did AWESOME!! such a good girl (if they only knew what she was like in the stores) She doesn't need glasses yet, but the doctor did say that she would most likely need them in the future and to continue to get her eyes checked every year. The dentist went well she has no cavities, I think she swallowed the stuff to clean her teeth though because afterwards she threw up and was quite sick. I felt really bad for her. It was her first time and I could tell she didn't really know what to think of it. Poor baby!.
Well this weekend we are going to get pictures taken of the family and some pictures of the kids I won a mini session for professional pictures and I'm really excited. It will be our first time as a family getting pictures done. Hopefully we'll getsome really good ones! If the weather continues to be nice we will hit up an apple orchard afterwards :) We did Severs last weekend with my brother and nephew everyone had a ton of fun. I got us tickets for half off. Jeremy is amazed at how much I save on things. I got us renaissance tickets for half off and Jaydon and Harley's tickets for free. So yes I am a saver and save money wherever I can. (you need to these days with prices like this) Just the other day I saved us $.30 off of gas :) and we filled up the van :) can't beat those prices!! You just need to look around and shop smart! anyhow it's been awhile and hopefully I'll continue to write more often than not so often.
Oh this weekend is also general conference and I'm really looking forward to is. I love being able to hear the prophet and apostles speak, and watching it at home with the family! Nixon also enjoys hearing the talks, he once said that the stories(talks) are actually interesting :) so long for now ;)
