Things that made me smile today

>> Tuesday, November 3, 2009

This morning Caleb and I were making some scrambled eggs for breakfast and after he helped me crack the eggs open this is what I saw.



How can this not make you smile. So that got me thinking, I should keep track of everything that makes me smile and happy today. I must say when you're constantly looking for things that make you smile you find them all around you all the time. So my list got quite long, here are just a few from today.




- Sawyer fell asleep at the begging of lunch, he's never done this before, I think he's still getting use to the time change. And look at those cheeks don't you just want to kiss them and eat them up, he's got soft squishy thighs to go with them. I love it! :o)



- Caleb had learned how to roll his tongue and wanted to show off for the camera. :o)





- The tempature in my house this morning, no AC, no Heat. It was wonderful, at least to the pregnant lady, everyone else was freezing. :o)




- Caleb shooting bad guys with his helmet on. :o)




- The beautiful fall colors that I get to see out my window and driving around town. :o)




- Since I had my camera out Caleb kept asking me to take his picture and he was being silly every time I pointed it at him. After I took one he'd say let me see, let me see and laugh at himself. :o)





- Caleb LOVES Hungry, Hungry Hippos but Sawyer's always been to little to play with us and tries to eat the marbles, well he finally understands not to eat the marbles and we've been letting him play with us. They have fun together. :o)



- Two marbles went missing after this I figured they were some where I'd find them later. After Sawyers nap I went to put his pants back on and felt two little round ball on his bum but outside his diaper. I thought gross he pooped and it got out of his diaper some how. thankfully it was just the missing two marbles caught up in his onesie. :o)



- I haven't eaten crunchy peanut butter in a long, long time. But had some today and it was yummy! :o)



- Feeling my baby move and kick me all day long, looking at my growing belly, and even catching a glimpse of myself in the mirror always makes me smile. :o) (almost 30 weeks, in just a few days!)


- Discovering a new park to play at! :o)







- This picture cracks me up every time I see it. Sawyer got so frustrated that he couldn't climb up this tunnel and kept sliding back down. (He only made this face for literally a split sec and I'm surprise I captured it. It was more the begging of being sad than mad. After this I did help him up and he was very happy.) :o)


- Caleb pretending to take a shower. :o)



- How cute is that. Going down the slide together and Caleb was so gentle and protective of his brother. :o)






- Two of the three boys I love the most in my life. :o)



- I know this puts a smile on everyones face, aren't they just the cutest! I love my boys!! :o)

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

>> Saturday, October 31, 2009

We had a great Halloween, hope everyone else did as well. We're just glad it didn't rain on us when we went out trick or treating. It had been raining off and on all day. So the ground was pretty wet but luckily that was all. The kids got tons of candy (not like they need it or me) and we didn't receive as many trick or treaters as I anticipated so we have TONS of left over candy that I bought to pass out. Any one want any or it? You'd think being pregnant during the holidays would give me a good excuse to eat anything I want but I don't think it does it just makes it harder to not eat it. I swear I look at goodies to eat or just think about them and gain another 5 lbs. Oh well, all worth it in the end when I have my sweet baby to hold. But I digress sorry back to Halloween. Here's some shots we got of our little Peter Pan and Dinosaur before we left for Trick or Treating. (You'll notice Sawyer has a sucker already because Caleb had some candy in his bag from our ward trunk or treat and he just had to have one.)

Happy Halloween!

Pumpkin Carving Fun

>> Thursday, October 29, 2009

We had a fun time carving our pumpkins tonight, although I think most of the fun was had by Ryan and my self since the boys are still to young to actually carve them. Earlier in the week Caleb and I cleaned them out and I don't know where Caleb gets this but he hates getting his hands dirty so he wasn't into helping me pull out all the seeds and gunk. He cracks me up, what little boy wouldn't want to get messy. Any ways, here are just some pics from our fun pumpkin night.

















I love Sawyers face in this last photo, our friends from across the street came home from a halloween party and the kids were running around outside together and Kiera their little girl had some lip gloss and I don't know what she was trying to do probably put it on him but Sawyers expression just cracks me up. Watch out Sawyer you're getting a little sister soon and I'm sure one day she'll try and put lip gloss on you too. :o)

Discoveries

Things my kids have discovered over the last few days:


-Dipping sauces, Sawyer now wants ranch or ketchup with everything and then he usually just eats the sauce.

- Caleb discovered the emergency button at the law school that calls the police, and they are pretty nice on the other end.

- The bath tub turns into a slide if you stand on the far end and let your legs slide out from under you. Sawyer can almost slide the whole length of the bath tub.

- There are monsters and bad guys in Caleb's room before he goes to bed, but you can get rid of them by shooting them with an invisible bow & arrow and sword.

- Sawyer has learned how the water dispenser works, needless to say I forgot to put the lock on it a couple times and now our floor is quite clean in front of the refrigerator.

- Ryan was swinging Caleb around and asked him if he was an airplane, Caleb responded, "no, I'm a child of God"

3rd Trimester!

>> Sunday, October 25, 2009

So nothing really interesting or important to blog about lately but I just want to say I'm officially in my third trimester today. I can't believe I'm already 28 weeks and only have 12 more to go, maybe 11 if I'm lucky :o). This pregnancy is going by so much faster than my last two but I guess that's just cause I'm so much busier this time around. Thank goodness. Can't wait to meet my sweet baby girl. She's definitely an active one, trying to keep up with her brothers already.

Change is in the air, I mean hair.

Before:



After:


I've been wanting to do this for awhile but thought I'd wait until the Fall. Now that it's Oct. 1 and the nice cool Fall weather has rolled around, I went for it. It didn't turn out as dark as I wanted it, it's more coppery (is that a word?) so I may redo it with a darker color, but I like it. What do you guys think?

Got Milk

>> Thursday, September 24, 2009


Our recycling day is every other week and we forgot about it 2 weeks ago so it was quite a build up. This is 4 weeks of milk and some OJ that we consumed, just to give you an idea of how much we love milk here in this house. Well at least how much the boys and I love milk, Ryan's getting a little better at it, he prefers his OJ.

Sawyer the Sawyersaurus

>> Tuesday, September 22, 2009

Sawyer's Halloween costume was delivered yesterday and I had to try it on him today. He actually liked it and the shoes and hat didn't bother him but it was nap time and I kept walking away from him to try and get a picture which he wasn't to happy about. But he's still just the cutest little dinosaur ever!






Hopefully I'll get better pictures on Halloween.
