Our Babies are 4!!



















With every pregnancy I have known with some weird six sense what the sex of the baby was. I could not figure it out with these two. I kept having the feeling it was a boy, no a girl, etc. It kept playing on my mind. Until we had our ultra sound. I was already nervous going in...Meryn was 4 month's sitting on Bryce's lap. Enough said! Dr. Tanner came in and started the procedure. He told us we we're having a girl. Hmm, what's new? I already knew that. But, then he also told us we we're going to have a boy. There were 4 legs moving around!! I told the doctor to shut up about 5 times. I looked over at Bryce bouncing our little Meryn on his leg. I started to freak out and cry. I know that I might have seem entirely ungrateful but, I felt like this was crazy AND impossible! NO history of twins! Bryce and I were to go get lunch after. We did but, our appetite was lost! I can remember some of our loved ones reaction. First of all my mother laughed at me! Our friends wanted to go to dinner to celebrate. Everyone was excited but Bryce and I. I felt SO ungrateful! I felt like Heavenly Father had a sense of humor! :) And was laughing at this one! I guess I didn't want that many children because I wanted to make sure I was emotionally there for them! And having a big family I thought a child would get lost along the way. I had the hardest time trying to figure out their names! It took me 10 months after they were born! I know I seem a bit crazy...maybe I am. We have found the perfect names that fit our little souls. They are 4 today! Bryce we did it!! They have one year left in preschool and that will be the saddest day of my life when they start kindergarten. I love having them around! It has been a blessing. I have found all things ARE possible with GOD. Even though I didn't think I could do it....

Winter Fun!

This is at the ward "ledding party". Sweet Azure drops the "S" when she says anything with a S. Like ledding= sledding. Lippers= slippers. Leeping = sleeping, etc. It is so dang cute! We have adopted her vocabulary as our own. We have our own family language. Their is a ton but, I won't go there today. :)

Ryn LOVES ledding. She thinks it is the greatest ever! She is our little miss dare devil! She will do anything. I love it!
Cole & Ashton. Cole is SUCH a great big brother! Bryce and I see him all the time doing things that we have NOT asked him to do.

All smiles for AZURE! :) This is a gooood thing!
Lady and Cole
Awe the cutest husband and dad around!
Lady was loving trying out new "leds".

I think Bryce was getting sick of me taking picture's of him. I could not resist! He's a nice tall drink of water! Okay, So I have some "sayings". Really, if you are a movie LOVER like I am maybe you will recognize the quote? It's off of Tombstone. LOVE THE MOVIE!
I think the kids will remember their dad as a FUN guy! Because this is just a 5% of how fun he is! I like to say I'm cooler or if I'm just as fun. But, I'm not. I'm the MOM! :)

Isn't this the cutest little girl?
Mmm, Yum! Hot Chocolate time!
This picture of Azure is hilarious! Look at her loving that chocolate! haha! She is funny. I wish I caught Ashton in the moment of stirring his coco. It was super cute.

Park City

We took a drive up to Park City and shopped the outlets. The kids were troopers. This is our 6 month traditional. It was such a beautiful day. I'm just taking random picture's.

Ma wa! Taking picture's of myself! :)

He's too little to say that!

At the Westcotts we just don't stop moving things around! We decided to separate the twins and give them their own space. So, the boys are in one part of the house and the girls in the other. Cole got lady's room, Ashton got Cole's. Alayda has her own room. And Meryn & Azure share. We let them pick the rooms and beds. We had to switch 5 beds! But, everyone is completely happy!
Yesterday while I was still moving things around he was in his room blasting "Chicago" ( a classic, LOVE THEM!) on his mini CD player and dancing around. ALL DAY. "Look at my room mom," It's all by myself "! "MY room" as he would point to himself. It was so cute to see. Anyway, that night when I tucked him into bed, I laid down by his side and snuggled for a few. He then asked me " Mom can you please get out now"? I was a little shocked and sad. :( I gave him a sad face and he told me "It's alright mom, I can take care of myself now!" Really? That fast? He's our baby almost 4 but, not 18 going to college! Saddest thing I ever heard!

At Last

At last! We are so happy for Chad and Leah!This was a while coming.Though it is hard to say goodbye to Chad. We have had him to ourselves for EVER and have loved it! He has lived with us 3 different times... counting almost 3 years. He is super close to our family. I think Cole has had the hardest time. But, I do NOT want to discredit Leah! She is awesome and we are SUPER excited to have her in our lives! She complete's Chad. Congrats guys! We LOVE you dearly!
The bride and groom. I tried to keep my distance! tried. But, I was bursting with excitement for these two!
I love this picture of these two. Leah is gorgeous! I love that coat too! Classy!
