Self Image

At what age do start to worry about your body image?.....Well, apparently at age 4. I picked up Ashlynn from school and asked her what she wanted for lunch she says to me, "Mom, I don't want to eat anything because my tummy is getting too big, and I want to be smaller." I was in shock and could not believe I just heard her say that sentence. At first, I honestly didn't know what to say. She is the perfect size for her little body. As Spongebob Squarepants would say, "This is not happening!" I still have no idea what inspired her to question her image, but we had a talk (as much as a cute 4 year old could understand) and had a good lunch together.

Look at this beautiful girl!

She loves to accessorize her outfits.

She picked this scarf out of her dress up drawer and

it matched perfectly with her church dress.

She even wrapped it around her the way she wanted it.

Too cute!

Fun in the Snow

We had so much last year at this place that we had to do it again. Since Park City is only a 40 minute drive from our house I think our little family is going to take up skiing and take some lessons. Carter is wanting to learn how to snowboard since seeing the Olympics. I think it will be fun and keep us entertained next winter. It seems that everyone knows how to ski around here and some start as little as 3 years old. I think we are little behind. Matt is the only one that has some experience with skiing, so we will see how all of us do.
