Blog posting like crazy!!!!

So I FINALLY figure out how to post this video of Ana at her graduation and added Wyatt growling at Chris. Scroll to the next post for the other video.

This is the one when she read Nan the Ant and then did a little number rock. The really funny part is the cute little boy in the white to her right your left. He is a good friend of ours and boy does he get down :) The laughing you hear is all of these ladies on the front row who he had completely enamored!!!! Enjoy!
Oh, The only part I am sad about is that Chris missed when Caleb held the guitar up at the end..like in Rock Band and brought it down...totally a cool rock star!!!!


Got Milk??

Chris was trying to feed Wyatt for me last night..he is breastfed and well as you can see he does not like the bottle very much and he kept growling at Chris...I caught the last few growls....sorry it is so dark and kinda loud but you get the idea. It was Hysterical!!!!

Zoom, Zoom

ZOOM ZOOM

So we did it! We finally got a new car. Our old car Moby was on it's last leg so it was time to let her go. Chris's car Dorie aka "little blue" is sad but we are setting up some sweet bonding time for this weekend. Car washes, etc etc.
We got this car (only it is grey with tented windows) . It is a Mazda 5 and super duper cute. I luuuvvve it. It has a third row and sliding doors like a van but it still maneuvers like a small car. I can park anywhere now!! And, I do not have to lug my 19 1/2 pound kid plus 5-6 pound car seat into the middle of our old bench seat..whew! It was becoming a nightmare. Great work out for my arms but killer on my back. I am very pleased and now have the excuse to go and buy a smaller Combi stroller to fit in the back 'cause my other one is a tad to big..but you will hear no complains from me on that :) My girls love it almost as much as me. They are debating new nicknames for it and I would not be surprised if I wake up and find them asleep in the garage inside it. All I can say is that we are easily pleased :)
So now for my favor...you see my husband's family has a curse (j/K) I think.......they do something to every car. I mean it!! Ever since I married Chris we have had car problems..it is uncanny..we have owned great quality cars, Honda, Toyota etc etc and they all have horrid problems. I candidly remember having my Honda accord towed and the tow truck guy shaking his head and saying, ""Man we do not have to tow many of these cars""..yeah tell me about it...I wanted to scream!!
So please, please , please pray that my fun little zoom zoom..(that is what I am calling it) lasts a long time.....pretty please. I have spoken to it and told it to stay far away from my hubbie and his evil awful car curse. On that note..I adore my in laws and my husband. I have acknowledge that if this is they only bad thing about them then I am one lucky ducky!!!!

Rubba dub dub, Jenny..I mean Johnny jumper and I've got mail!

Splish -Splash
Little Big Man loves his bath!! He has his big boy seat now and splashes and plays..so cute. He is definitely a water baby.
My little alfalfa. He hair always sticks up in the back and he has a comb over :)

I got MAIL!!!!!!
One of the best mail deliveries I have ever received :)

His sister's wanted to ship him back...hee hee j/k they adore him. They were measuring b/c they planned to make him an airplane to sit in. sweet.

Tylenol anyone???
Please do not cringe..and report me to someone :) yes that is a bottle of (Childproof) Tylenol that he is chewing on. And yes I only let him do it with me standing there..just for the sake of this picture. He got his 6 month shots yesterday and was a very cranky little man. This calmed him. But me being the paranoid mom that I am..I immediately took it away and he completely freaked :( Oh well I got this pic. More alfalfa hair.

My Jenny..opps Johnny Jumper. Chris brings this home and I state the obvious to him...it is pink and says Jenny Jumper!! I mean he does know we have a boy and we plan to make him all boy..dirt, bugs, sports the whole thing..no girlie stuff for this kid. His excuse was that they were out of the boy one and this one was on sale. But when Little Big Man is older I will remind him his dad did this..not me.

Wondering what he is suppose to do???


Quickly figuring it out and loving it!

Grateful for family!!!!

Things I am grateful for.....I am very thankful for all of my amazing friends..which are like my family. I am also thankful for my family. I have an amazing sister who is my 2nd best friend...Chris is first :) I grateful for my parents and for my two brothers. Today would have been my little brother's Jesse's b-day. He was a great brother and I miss him very much. He had beautiful blue/gray eyes..(so far Wyatt's look kinda like his..I am hoping they stay like Jesse's) Tons of freckles and a great smile. But the best was his humor and personality. He had a quiet sarcastic slap stick type of humor that I loved!! Hence I married a man that has one too!! All of our nieces and nephews loved Jesse. He was just the fun uncle. I miss him and love him very much!!!! So Happy Birthday Jesse Lane!!! We had cookies in your honor :)

Moving on and bad to the bone!

Moving On Up!!!!!!!
Ana had her preschool graduation last night. I know I know she is only moving from one grade to the next and I had to hear endless teasing about buying a gown for this. In fact my hubbie reenacted the scene from the movie the Incredible's.."She is just going from one class to the next" ......BLAH BLAH Blah.... anyways she got her cap and gown and wore it with pride! And dad loved it! She was also asked to read/recite a story that she has been learning to read called Nan the Ant. She did such a good job!! She read loud and slow in front of everyone and there were a lot of people there. I was one proud momma!! I will be attaching a video soon. :)
Ana in her finery! I can not believe she is growing up so fast.
Me and my ladies.
Dad with his gang.


Bad to the Bone
Wyatt with a do-rag on his head.....Biker baby!


Just sweetness!
Chris looking so silly..it makes me laugh so I had to add it.

Welcome back Sleep..how I have missed you!
I guess what they say is true..third times a charm...or in our situation third child is an angel!!!Wyatt is being so good. He is sleeping like a champ! Let's hope he keeps it up. If so I am gonna love this schedule.

week of revelation

So I have had an interesting week. It has been one of those weeks where almost every day I have had one of those "awe" moments about myself. For a while I have been tossing questions around in my head and for some reason this week many of them have been answered. A few are to personal/sacred to share via the blog but here is one that is not.
For as long as I can remember I have prayed. Pretty much about everything. (I am so horrible about making any decisions so I pray a lot to make the right choices) Anyways...
I would be walking, driving or whatever and talking to my Heavenly Father. It is almost 2nd nature to me now so when I thinking of decorating or finding something or whatever I usually kinda run it by Heavenly Father...very respectfully of course. :) I started to notice that I would sometimes feel inspired to go to a store or a certain place and I would find exactly what I was looking for...and usually for way cheap and sometimes FREE....it was uncanny!!! It did not happen all of the time but it did happen often. I remember telling some friends about it and they kinda smiled and well I think they thought I was bonkers!!! And I just might be but this week I was reading a sweet friend's blog and she spoke of finding that perfect type of nail polish (Her absolute favorite!!!!) that she had thought was discontinued and it was on sale. She wrote how she was so grateful for that find and was so grateful for those little blessings that the Lord sends her to remind her that he knows her and knows what she needs and likes..even it is is nail polish (her story is way better so sorry for my paraphrasing :) )))
When I read this a light bulb went off...that is what all along has been happening to me :) I think Heavenly father is so generously sending me little reminders that he does hear all of my prayers and that he is mindful of me and the things that bring me happiness. Even if they are silly to everyone else , He know I like them and that it brings me comfort. I know that I am extremely blessed and loved by my Heavenly Father and I love little moments like these when things become very clear to me. At least for this week :)

10 YEARS AGO....



10 Years ago today I married this adorable man! He is my very best friend and has been with me through my very best moments and some of my saddest. He is always that shoulder to lean on, that ear to listen and gives me the wisest and best advice. I could not have asked for a more perfect eternal companion. I thank Heavenly Father for him daily and often hourly :)
I remember watching him with our friend's little boy when we were dating and knowing that he was going to be a great father. Well he has surpassed all of my original expectations..he plays make believe, makes up awesome stories, gives killer pony rides and does the best Bingham ball in all of Florida!!! He is pretty dang awesome!!! He works so hard at his job and still cooks and cleans and does some sweeet folding of the laundry. (seriously he would make any clothing department store employee drool) Oh he also irons better than me and he can load a dishwasher better than anyone I know. And he is athletic, adventurous, funny and super duper smart. All I can say is he is AMAZING!!!! I am not sure why I deserve someone like him..
So Hon....here is to 10 wonderful years!!!! Woo Hoo!! I think I love you more today than on the day we were sealed...if that is possible :)
