Our Beautiful Children

This is what makes our life so wonderful, and even though time seems to fly by, we am trying to capture every minute as we raise our family!
Spencer 6 1/2 years old

Lexi 4 1/2 years old


Tyson 1 year old

I Think I am Almost There!

Ellen this video is for you. Tyson started walking at about 14 months and it is so dang cute!
Acting out the Nativity
All Spencer really wanted for Christmas was his 2 front teeth!
Happy New Years 2011!

More Catching Up!

Happy 8th Anniversary to Mike and me! We went to San Francisco for a little getaway. While we were there we went to a Raiders game and guess what...they actually won! It was a great weekend!


For Halloween Spencer was Karate Kid, Lexi was a dog, and Tyson was a lion.


Mike came up with our costumes for a Halloween party. I thought it was pretty creative.
Go Cougs!!!
My family was all together for Thanksgiving this year, except Heidi because baby number 3 was due in January. She made us these cute hair bows. Even Jake looks good! (He is such a good sport. I guess this is what happens when you have all sisters!)

Is It Really 2011?

I was just thinking the other day, "Is my car really 12 years old (1999 Honda)...have I really been a nurse for 10 years...did I really graduate almost 15 years ago...am I REALLY turning 33 this year?" Time goes by so quickly and sometimes I am just trying to keep up? Well I guess it is time to play catch up, as always!
All the Hobbs grandchildren!

It's time for my quarterly update!

What a fun summer we have had, and not doing anything really special, but just hanging out and playing lots. We went swimming, camping, boating, fishing, biking, hiking, running, and played with cousins and friends a lot! Here are some fun pictures of our great summer!
We caught this snake when we were camping up American Fork canyon.


Lexi and Spencer ran the 1 mile fun run for the first time this year down in Fairview on the 24th of July! GO RUNNERS!!!



Hanging with friends at Bear Lake

Lexi fishing. Everyone got to catch a fish. Yummy!



Spencer has wanted a mohawk for a long time so when Uncle Jake got one he had to follow suit!

I would die to have eyelashes like these!

All my siblings

Yes, that is a parrot on Spencer's head. This is us at Lagoon.

3 kids AHHHH!

For the first few months after Tyson was born I thought to myself, "3 kids, this isn't so bad. I don't understand what everyone is talking about." Well, the last couple months I feel like I have just been spinning my wheels. I have the "sign up for everything" syndrome so I guess it is mostly my fault. But you know me, I hate to miss out on the party! My kids keep me busy, but I wouldn't change it for the world. Here are a few pictures of the fun activities we have done the last couple months. The best thing is we took a family vacation to San Diego and got to go to the beach, Legoland, and Sea World. What a blast!

Tyson 6 Months Old
I know that I am biased, but I honestly don't think they get any cuter than this!



Lexi loves books and I found her one day reading in her clothes hamper!



Happy Easter-Our 3 little cuties!



BROTHERS!






My mom just graduated from law school. What an amazing accomplishment! We are all so proud of her!



SAN DIEGO!!!



It was a little chilly, but that didn't stop these beach bums!

Baby Blue!

When Mike and I were engaged I told him I was marrying him because I wanted our kids to get his blue eyes! My dreams have come true!
Tyson 4 months old

Ski Bunnies!

I took my kids skiing at Alta a couple weeks ago and we had the best time! I wasn't quite sure how it would work out with 2 beginners, but I kept Lexi between my legs most of the time (except when she wanted me to let go and I would have to hurry to catch up to her), and Spencer just figured it out and did great! I was so proud of them and they can't wait to go again!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!

We had great Christmas. We were so glad that Santa found our house this year. After Mike and I threatening coal about a million times, the kids were glad they were good enough to get some fun presents. I couldn't help but think how blessed we are to have so much. I am especially grateful for our wonderful families. 2010 is going to be a great year!
Twin Jammies

Oh So CUTE!!!

My great friend Carolee was so nice to take these pictures of my kids for me. I think the pictures speak for themselves!

Spencer 5 years old
Lexi 3 years old

New Year's Resolutions!!!

So I really want to be on top of my life this year, and one way I can do that is to stay on top of my blog. Do you really think it will happen? I also set a resolution to get out of bed by 7:15am and the next day after I wrote it down in my journal I slept in until 8:15am. Bummer! It sure felt good though! Anyway, here is a little video I thought Ellen especially would enjoy. Our little wrestler-just like his dad!
