From the mouths of babes

Kids Always say the funniest things. Earlier this week, I was brushing Kailee's hair and we had a cute 4 line conversation:

Me: Kailee, is this candy in your hair?

Kailee: No, it's buggers.

Me: Why do you have buggers in your hair?

Kailee: When I woke up, I bless youed and got buggers all over my hair.

(Bless youed in this case means: sneezed)

Tonight while I was making dinner, Dallin asked me to sing a song. After I sang to him, I asked him to sing one to me. He started to sing I am a Child of God (a children's LDS church song). For those you who don't know the words, here is the first verse:

I am a child of God, and he has sent me here,

Has given me an earthly home, with parents kind and dear.

Dallin's song:

I am a child of God and he has sent me here,

Has given me an earthly home with parents kinda weird.

He then continued to the chorus thinking those are the words.

As most parents do, I think my children are funny...as do they!

Our California Trip

            Just a few of the many pictures we took when we were in CA.

Beach anyone?

If you need me, this is where I will be...

We leave for So Cal tomorrow! We are anxious to visit family, see the sun for 3 days in a row, and maybe get a tan!! It has been a year since we have been, so it will be fun to see our family and friends.  New posts will be up when we get back!! Happy Easter!

Just when I thought I did my duty...thanks, Kayla! Here we go again!!

What I was doing...

20 Years ago/March 1988- 6 years old. I don't even know. Probably chasing my dog Tippy around and playing hide and seek with Sean Forge and Tommy Webster (random to remember huh? my mom and her friends used to take turns watching each others kids after school).

10 Years ago/March 1998-Oh my gosh....just turned 16, so failing my drivers test for going too slow..LOL, having my first legal boyfriend, enjoying that fact that I was "16" woohoo.

5 Years ago/March 2003- Married for 1 1/2 years, 37 weeks prego with Dallin, and working at Artco in the Personal Touch department.

3 Years ago/March 2005- Dallin was almost 2...so taking him to the ER when he burnt his hand on our stove, Kailee was learning how to walk, going to school at BYU-I and Gus was finishing his 2nd year of interior design.

1 year ago/March 2007- In sunny CA having fun, still going to school at BYU-I, preparing for Gus' graduation, wondering if we were going to live in ID, Las Vegas, or Utah, and 7 months prego with Tylie.

So Far This Year- Moved to South Jordan UT (made amazing friends and completely miss my friends in ID), Dallin and Kailee in preschool, Tylie still not crawling, though she rocks like crazy, and Gus loving his job at FFKR Architects. Nothing really exciting other than that.

 

Yesterday- Tylie took a 3 hour nap, watched Wedding Crashers, went to IKEA for lunch and shopping, checked out our friends new granite counter, night out with Nichole: dinner at Pei Wei, quick shopping at the mall, then hanging out at her house till after midnight!! 

Today- So far, Gus taking a test for REED certification, showered, actually fixed a hot breakfast for my kids (I know...crazy huh? They were kinda waht was going on too) gave Ty a bath, put her down for a nap, my girlfriends girls are over playing, and blogging. Its only 10:45 in the morning, so many other things are still ahead. Maybe shopping for the CA trip and a cute purse and shoes???

Tomorrow- Gus teaching a lesson in Sunday School, making announcements in RS, YW, and Primary, and Nursery, calling my sister to make sure she is ok because her husband leaves for New Jersey (4 weeks) to train for a 6 month military duty in Iraq, and hopefully having a lazy Sunday other than that. 

This Year- Dallin turns 5 and starts Kindergarten, Kailee turns 4 and starts Pre-K, Ty turns 1 and will hopefully get more than 1 tooth, walk and talk, leave for CA in 5 days!!!, and have a fun family adventure.

Tagging- I tag anyone who wants to do this. It is actually fun to think about what you were doing. Good times!!

Blackmail

What else can I say besides, The perfect blackmail picture! Dallin thinks this is funny now, in about 10 years, he is gonna be mortified! As his his mom, I do have to say he looks pretty in this purple. As for Kailee, I still need the perfect blackmail picture of her.
