Dinner Menu

We are taking the two above to the ward dinner this evening


I must take all 3 kids grocery shopping today
here is how it will go:

Hazel will sleep in the wrap the entire trip, if she happens to wake she will entertain herself making rasberries

Jaxson will walk next to the cart until he sees something he has to pick up
after 15 times of being told to stay next to the cart he will. Then the fun begins, he will now ask me to buy everything he sees, whether he knows what it is or not

Liam will be buckled in to the seat in the cart. He will whine for the first 15 minutes in the store, next he will drop the toy he has brought with him 10 dozen times ( I really hated this when I was pregnant, all the bending down killed me)

I will leave the store with half the items I went for ( even if they are all on the list) and a thread of sanity, on the way home I will remember everything I needed & ask myself more than a dozen times WHY I WOULD TAKE ALL THESE CHILDREN TO THE GROCERY STORE.

Knowing all of these things will happen I am going to go anyway (Yes I am a crazy person)

So here is my shopping list:

dried cranberries & sour cherries
apples
pears
onion (red & white)
garlic
organic bran cereal
molasses
raisins
corinader
cumin seeds
feta cheese
brown sugar
olive oil
red bell pepper
oregano
avocado
apple sauce
arugala
chives
1lb of salmon

One More Reason to Love Springville

This may not look like much to you
however, we consider it a brillant peice of art

The Springville Art Museum holds family night once a month.
Augusts was on quilting, after seeing the displays they let the kids have a go at making quilt squares.
This is Jaxsons, I am very impressed!!!

 

tHe KiDz RooM

I have been working on making the basment MY kid "friendly"


I think it is comming along nicely

A few things to notice:

1. Kidz hand prints on the wall

2. Hazel's corner
complete with mirror
(by the by she spent the entire day laughing with herself in the mirror)

3. Reading corner
in which the boyz already have the books
we will be reading tommorow opened to the front page

4. Pillows gallore
we have already had many pillow fights, what a life
(mom not only condoned but was a participatant)

Soccer Weekend

This weekend we stayed at my mothers house
Liam got his first set of cleats so all the boyz decided to help him wear them in with a little friendly game

Look how sweet they started with the traditional
singing of the National Anthem This is Liam's idea of playing soccer
Jaxson is just getting the hang of it
he is pretty good if I do say so
Games over time for a rest!!!!
It was a very fun weekend
I am glad my kids have such fun Uncles !!!

First Time in the Big Tub

in the summertime


Yummy
I love this old thing

Welcome to the Family

Meet my new camera

the Panasonic DMC-FZ7
complete with Leica lenses ( supposed to be the best)
I am excited to get going trying it out

Look out for lots of new pictures

Out with the Old

Thanks to my two year old

I no longer have a camera

.......sometimes mothers have to go to the bathroom too

a brief account

I went to the bathroom for 5.3 seconds and in that time Liam

climbed up got my camera off the fridge

and poured water into every crevice

Angelo informed me that I could buy a new one IF, I would count it as my Christmas present( seeing as how this year is our Costa Rica Christmas )

I made that deal so

sometime this week I will be the proud owner of a new camera

I really miss my old camera !!!!

Wrestle Mania

Hey in a house full of boys
you got to learn to wrestle early!!!!! Hazel is getting more personality daily ( all we need in our home is more personality)
Jaxson loves to hold her & sometimes she lets him
