Parenting

If I wasn't a parent I wouldn't be picking up or stepping on things so much, I wouldn't have had to clean our car and every nook and cranny of a car seat from throw up, I would have gotten a lot more than 3 hours of sleep last weekend, I'd be able to wake up when I want to, and so much more but I wouldn't be anywhere near as happy as I am right now! Instead I get to wake up to the cutest little happy cuddle bug, laugh every day at his silly gestures, and do the smallest thing to hear my most favorite noise, his laugh. I live for those things. Being a parent is the best "job" in the world!

Dancin Fools

Star in Your Own JibJab! It's Free!Mom, you always say that you want to see us dance!

Basement remodel

Don't you all wish you had a room that looked like this? Bead board walls, drop ceiling (ripped down before picture was taken), and my favorite Brady bunch rock wall with gold fireplace! We recently had it up-dated. We were told it would be done by the end of September... it was finished last week. So, a bit longer than expected but we love it. Now for the decorating!

Payback!

These are my cute niece and nephew, Annie and Tate. We watched them last night and had so much fun with our Utah gear on!! They were so happy! I couldn't seem to get them to take off the Utah gear either. I guess they just know what team is the best and have to savor it while they can before getting home and being forced into too much blue. Annie and Tate have some big BYU fans as parents (my sister Shelby and her husband Jared). If you look at their blog (Hales), you'll know why this is titled "payback". We love you guys, hopefully your kids will grow up cheering for the red!

Happy Halloween!

Dax was a monkey (as you can see) for Halloween. He was super cute, especially when Papa was making him laugh so hard! We tried trick-or-treating and it really wasn't hugely successful. Dang! I was hoping on banking on some free candy from him this year. Dax has discovered that he likes to go outside for walks, don't even try to help! When he's on his walks he doesn't like to have any deviation from his own designated course. So to try and bring him to someones doorstep he would arch back and scream. (The same way he now does when I take my phone away from him because he's calling everyone or deleting everything. Sorry if you have random calls from us without us on the other end.) So thanks to Ama and Papa, and of course Costco, I was able to get some candy for myself!
