25 things I want to do in this lifetime.

Games
1 Go to England, Scotland, and Ireland with Kevin. 2 Go on a week long, unplanned, road trip with nothing but a toothbrush, my camera, and my wallet (well and a few other necessities, hahaha). Just get up and go, and see where the road takes me. 3 Dye my hair brown. 4 Serve on the PTA for my kids when I don't have any more babies at home. 5 Go to my kids classes and help out their teachers, either by being a room mother, or just helping out. 6 Go to Oregon and see Kevin's mission areas. 7 Become a well known wedding photographer. 8 Achieve and stay at my goal healthy weight. 9 Go to and finish College. 10 See my kids succeed in something that makes…

Missing Church, Again!

Church, Venting
I'm so frustrated. I mentioned that I'm sick, well this morning I could barely climb out of bed. :( I figured I'd press through and we'd make it to church anyways. Well, Kevin has a nasty head cold this morning too... Aiden was supposed to be in sharing time today, but that's not happening. Sometimes it seem that when you're trying the hardest you get the most resistance. :(

New Theme!

Blog Changes
I have a new theme, it's bright and happy and makes me feel good. Not that the old one was bad, just tired, and too much geared towards my original intention for this blog, preparing for my baby boy. I also like the layout a bit, there'll be changes as I get comfortable with it, so don't be surprised, if say the header, colors, and patterns on the sides change over the next few weeks. anyways, let me know what you think. :)

Dance, sickness and Joey’s fussy.

Aiden, Baby Joey, Church, Kevin and I, Michael
I'm feeling a bit better, but it's gone from burning sinuses (think pool water up your nose as a kid, always my sign I'm getting sick), down to my throat, it never moves that fast so I'm hoping that means it'll be history by tomorrow night. We had a rough night with Joey lastnight. He decided not only to be awake, but fussy and unhappy from around 1:30 to almost 4:oo AM. He then crashed until the big boys got up, and Daddy took him out to the living room, put him in his swing and he slept happily for a while. Tonight again he's been less than happy about anyhting but being held a certain way and nursing a lot, he's spitting up a lot so I imagine that…

Tag!

Games
OK, I didn't get tagged, but saw this on Sophia C's blog and thought it'd be fun. 10 years ago~ I was Hmm, almost 16, uh oh, not a great year... I was dating a boy a bit too seriously, I "sluffed" a lot of class, my family moved from North Logan to Utah Valley, and in the process I got moved a few months early to live with my Uncle. This was the year I was suicidal, and also the year that I made a conscious effort to really be my best me and turned things around for myself with lots of support from loving family and friends. Also the year I met and made friends with Serena, Michelle, Quincy, Paul, JD, "Lobes," "Doll," Carl, Mary, Melinda, Danielle, Kim…

Aiden

Aiden
I'm sick. I've got a lot to do today, so I hope it can get under control so that I can function. I realized that I don't write much about Aiden, so here's a little about him... He likes to touch everything. This morning he got into the pantry and got out every single box he could reach, it kept him busy as I made a phone call and organized some stuff so I let him do it, he then lined up all of the boxes like lily pads (see where he's going with this?) and then started marching across them, Ummm, ugh! That was over quick! He likes treats, a LOT, he regularly points to the treat bowl that I keep over the sink with random sugars inside, begging…

Please be an Angel

Michael
This morning as we took Michael to school I reminded him, as usual, to be on his best behavior. I said "Can you please be an Angel?" He paused and said, "Um, No!" I was shocked thinking he was planning on being less than stellar. I bit my tongue and asked him "Why not?" He sighed as if I should know already and said "Because I don't have wings!" Kevin and I laughed, and explained it was a figure of speech and we really just wanted him to be like an angel... I'm sure I should have explained that real angels don't have wings, but by then he was gone on his way, smiling his sweet innocent smile that could fool you that he'd never do anything mischievous.

Paint, Daddy baby wears, and more rose pics.

Aiden, Baby Joey, Baby Wearing, Kevin and I, Michael, Pictures
Lastnight while I arranged my flowers, Kevin painted some figures and the boys played at the table doing homework and coloring. Joey got fussy so Kevin went to get him. Kevin had him balanced on his lap in a uncomfortable looking way, so I went and got the Snugli for them to use. It was the first time in this carrier for Joey and I think he really liked it. Well other than this photo, hahaha. Maybe he was worried Daddy was going to paint him. And here's the photo's of my flowers arranged. The vase that the red roses are in is one I already had from the last time Kevin got me flowers, and the big one Kevin got me yesterday. That arrangement is almost as big as…

Brother Quotes

Aiden, Allergies, Baby Joey, Michael
First off, I finally updated my "about us" section (top right) so you can go there to get a bit of history on us. So I guess that makes 7 entries during this three day weekend, LOL! I promise I won't keep going at this rate, nobody would ever keep up. If only I'd enjoyed writing like this in school, oh well, at least it'll do me some good when I'm in college in a few years. Oh, and a bit of good news on the allergy front, Joey's poop is almost the right color again!!!! Hahaha, at least I don't take and share pics guys... So for now I'm just keeping out nuts and chocolate, and I've just had a little milk products, mostly just a dollop of cottage…
