Its been awhile!

We moved and no longer have the internet at our house! In a way its nice becasue I don't waste my time on the internet BUT I pay my bills and blog online! I miss blogging the most- I feel like its a way to document life at the Johnson home and to let everyone know what our family is up to. I have SO MUCH to blog about that I wont be able to gt to it all! I've got to start somewhere-so I figured I would start with something current :)

Go BSU!

Here we are all ready to start the Boise State game on Sept 3! We were so excited for the season to start....especially MONTE! We let the girls stay up past their bed time to watch the game with us and that was a mistake! They ran around the whole time and kept acting their age so we put them to bed at half time :)

Another Thumb Sucker??

Mia can't decide what she wants to do.

For a little bit she took a pacifire. Then she started sucking on her bottom lip. But lately she has been favoring the thumb in her mouth. She doesn't actually sit there and suck on it-- but it keeps finding its way into her mouth!!!

I guess only time will tell :)

Today

Surprise! I cut my hair after 6 years of growing it out! It was a very traumatic experience for Mindy. All weekend long she kept telling me not to cut my hair because I wouldn't look like a princess or that I would look like a boy. She has been VERY observant of how people lately. For example today at Sam's Club she had to point out (out loud of course!) the man with a very long pony tale and the girl with the immodest dress. Anyway, back to what I was saying before, Mindy watched with her eyes filled with tears and her thumb in her mouth as my friend Dana cut my hair. Dana put a little band in my hair and then cut it and gave it to Mindy to keep. When my hair was finished she told me that I still look like a princess--so that's a good sign! I do feel bad though because both the girls want to be just like their Mama (just like all little girls do!). The other day I got dressed after Mindy was already dressed and she went and changed so that our colors would match. Then Makayla went and picked out an outfit to match too! I have been dying in this humidity this year and it is so nice to have a cooler hair cut. Mindy has asked me several times how long it will be until my hair grows back.....

These first two pictures were taken by Mindy. She is becoming quite the photographer around here! She is always asking to take a picture!! :)

Mia is 4 months old now!

So....this is what we look like TODAY :)

A Father's Day Gift

We gave Monte this picture in a frame for Father's Day.

Mindy just LOVES her "dada". Lately she will ask him non-stop if she can play a game on his ipod. She is always tagging along side Monte asking him questions and just talking :) she always ends each sentence with "huh dada". Monte and Mindy are best buddies.

Then there is Makayla......she is definitely a mama's girl but will occasionally give her Dada a kiss. Ever since Mia was born Monte has helped out a lot with the older two girls and so Makayla is slowly catching on that he is actually a good guy! She has such a cute laugh and Monte can always find a way to get one out of her. She especially loves him when he carries her to the trampoline (because she is scared of Harley) and jumps with her.

Little Miss Mia usually gets a holding session in each night with her daddy. A couple of weeks ago Monte was holding her at church and I couldn't believe how much they looked alike!!

Monte is a good daddy to our girls.I love that I can learn often how to be a better Mom by watching him be a great Dad
