Cutler family pictures 2015 FOR THE WIN

Remember my account at failed family pictures? Well we went back at it again much more prepared with a tripod, a Katie who entertained the kids like a magician for smiles, mini M&M's in my pocket for smiles and cooperation from Maxson (worked like a freaking charm), and a promise to Casey for an ice cream reward for having to do this twice. PICTURES WENT SO MUCH SMOOTHER.

Some of these are from the first evening of photos, a majority of them are from our second time.

Woo! So glad I have this stage of our lives documented in some great pictures! Thank you Katie and my mom!

Tomorrow: pictures with our behind the camera magicians!

Happy Easter! 2015

Easter is such a happy holiday! We are reminded that just like spring, our bodies will be renewed to beauty and resurrected once again. How incredibly blessed ALL the children of God are to receive this wonderful, beautiful gift. I know my Savior lives, my friends! God is good, He is so very, very good.

What it takes to get the above picture:

1. Balance babies with various body parts: Casey's chin, Kimber's hip.

2. Hide the insane amount of poop that came up Bryson's back with a burp rag and hope it doesn't get on you, baby's pants unnecessary.

3. Maxson's shoes optional

4. One leg balancing shows you are great multitasking mother

5. Both parents must try to grab one of Maxson's hands as to keep him from running away in case the other parent accidentally lets go during pictures.

We will be learning about and remembering our Savior, Jesus Christ today be watching General Cnference live at 10 am/ 2 pm MST. You can join and watch here too!

All dressed up...and we went to church!

Our first Sunday to church with the whole family went smashing (the second not so much, but that's not what we're focusing on here). Bryson slept the whole 3 hours in his carseat, amazing right?!??! And Quinn only woke up the last 15 minutes to eat, it was a wonderful spiritual filled Sunday. Funny thing, I got all 4 boys to match! Khaki pants, white shirts, and the 3 little boys had matching bow ties (still trying to convince Casey that bow ties look good on men too!). Pretty much no one saw their outfits but I just thought they were so cute, I wanted to kiss them all day.

 The best picture of the 4 matching boys. It was probably hysterical watching us try to get a picture with Max in it, Casey is holding the twins following Max all around the background, Max just keeps running away, and I'm just standing a few feet away with my big huge camera hoping for a good enough picture. Silly I tell you. Max knew Casey wasn't going to be able to hold him still and totally took advantage of it.

 Our Sunday family!

 And the gorgeous sunset that evening. It makes my heart sing seeing this beauty!

 And rewind a couple weeks ago! Never got individual shots of the boys in their blessing outfits. Here's their cuteness. A couple people have asked where the clothing is from. Suspenders: ebay (search toddler suspenders, they were like $2 each shipped from China or something) and I made the bow ties.

Church is going to be hard with the twins: always worrying about feedings, naps, keeping them asleep, cleaning up spit up, etc. But during those 3 hours of the day, we are supposed to be at church and I know it will bless us!
