The boys escaped outside for a little bit before the rain came. Here is just a couple of pictures. I didn't post all the pictures I took cause I ended up taking like 98 I think. They were just being so cute and having so much fun I couldn't stop my finger from clicking away!!

Fun in the Sun!!!

Good News Wednesday!

It seems like I just barley did this yesterday but I guess it was a week ago. Time is flying by so fast. Everything is going great with us. The boys are loving the warm weather and want to be outside all the time. Which isn't a bad thing cause then they aren't messing up the house. Tonight is once again tv dinner night so that is always good news for me!!

My Crazy Life!

I just wanted to do a quick post and express how grateful I am for my family. Yesterday was "one of those days", moms you all know what I'm talking about. The kids are constantly fighting or crying about something. Your house seems to be a disaster all day long, no matter much you are trying to pick up. Which is rather hard for me right now considering I can barley even put on my own socks. But then this morning they are all cute and sweet. And come and snuggle me when they wake up. It makes me forget all the craziness that went on yesterday. And then theres Tyler with his random hugs he loves to give everyone. Those are the best!! I'm sure later on it will get crazy again but right now I'll hang on to the peace and quiet.

Good News Wednesday!

Lets see, not much has been happening this week. Rob has been golfing twice so he's pretty excited about that. Bryan is all about his new country he learned yesterday in preschool. It was Japan and they gave him some chopsticks. So now he wants to eat them with everything. He had fish sticks last night for dinner and he had to use them for that. Then he also made me make him some noodles cause that's what they are supposed to be used for?? Colby has added a new character to his wardrobe. HEMAN!! I'm sure its pretty close to what Rob looked like when he was little. He was a big Heman fan too. If you look at the pictures below he is riding "battlecat". Thats Hemans pet tiger I think. Tyler has learned how to go down the stairs by himself. So now he thinks he needs to practice all the time. He'll just go up and down bringing me different stuff whenever I'm working. Last night was tv dinner night so I didn't have to cook or clean the dishes up after. That is definitely good news for me!

Scrapbook Pages!

I thought I would share some of my favorite pages I did last Friday!

FUN, FUN, FUN!!!

We had so much fun yesterday at the Scrapbook Expo! We got there at about 10:30 and didn't end up leaving until 9:30 that night. I didn't think we would stay that long but it was a lot of fun. I didn't really shop that much but I got a lot of scrabooking done. 35 pages was my grand total!! Plus me and Tiffany went to a class and made a wall hanging that you put pictures on. It was really cute. Thanks Camie and Tiffany for coming with me, it was a blast!!

Good News Wednesday!

I thought I would start doing a good news Wednesday every week. Just something little about each of us that has happened the past week. We'll see how it goes? Rob is really liking his new job in Salt Lake. He recently found out that he can ride the new frontrunner to and from work. And that the church will pay for most of it. He only has to pay $12 a month. So it will save us a ton of money on gas each month!!! Bryan is extra excited about school each day because they are learing about different countries. Each day after school he trys to get us to guess what country he learned about by what food they eat. Yesterday it was cheese. And that was the only hint he would give me. I didn't guess very well so he finally had to tell me it was Holland. He's favorite so far is probably Brazil for their Chocolate Milk and Cookies or New Zealand for their Kiwi. Colby is still Colby! Theres not much to say that doesn't end in craziness. That is his whole life, trying to be crazy and trying to teach Tyler how to be crazy as well. I took him to the scrapbook store with me yesterday and he was so good I told him he could pick out a treat. I thought he would pick out some candy but he wanted his very own Peter Pan stickers that he could play with. He put them on his own scrapbook paper and tells everyone that is his very own scrapbook! Tyler is getting another tooth on the bottom. He hasn't been very onry either so thats really good. He is finally off the bottle as well. I really like that cause he can't dump milk on his head anymore. And as for me. . . I'm just really excited for Friday for the Scrapbook Expo. I get to hang out with my friends and scrapbook. What else could be better? Plus I don't have to clean, cook or play "Wendy". That will be a good break!!

Life is a battlefield. . . One must always be prepared!!

Updates for Petyon!

Be sure and check out Peytons updates underneath his picture to the right. I'll update them each week as he gets bigger!!

Our fun filled day!

Yeah daddy finally had a day off today. We decided since it was kindof rainy weather that we would take the boys to the Treehouse Museum. They had so much fun. Especially Tyler because he could just run and play like his brothers and not have to be stuck in the stroller. Their favorite part was probably the knights castle where there was knights and horses and dragons they could pretend with. They also liked coloring and playing with the stamps. Afterwards we went to Warrens for lunch. Bryan got a lime-rickey for the first time and really liked it. Then we went to the mall for some Mommy fun time. I got two pairs of shorts at Aeropostale for only $10 a piece. I was pretty excited about that cause I can wear them now and after I have the baby. Rob liked that I can wear them afterwards too. He got a tie (kindof boring?). And later tonight we're going to make the boys favorite, Strawberry Banana shakes. It was a fun day!!

Another Dr. Appt

We had our appointment with the ultrasound specialist today. She said everything looks great. He is right on track as far as development goes. I get weekly updates from babycenter and he is about the size of a carrot now. Bryan likes it when I tell him how big he gets. When she was doing the ultrasound Bryan and Colby were getting so exicted when they could see stuff like his hands and feet. They wanted him to come out right now. I wouldn't mind that either, too bad he's not big enough yet! He's getting there, and he'll be here before we know it.
