She's got her momma's thighs

Long Day...

2 hours of playing with toys can really wear a girl out... Isn't it cute how she never did let go of the toys?

Gotta love yardsales....

I bought this bike trailer from my neighbor's yardsale for only $35!!!! Mark came over and hooked it up and took the kids for a little ride and they loved it!!!

Problem #1...

Cash got a hold of my NEW pink fingernail polish and did what he does with everything... Threw it on the floor to hear the loud bang. Only this time it shattered and pink polish went everywhere. Luckily I was sitting right there (don't judge, I know I should have taken it away BEFORE he threw it) but at least I was able to get him away from it before he played in it.

Problem # 2

I wasn't sure how I wanted to paint my toes... So, I painted each foot differently and thought that I would see which one looked better and then I would use remover and repaint the one to match. Well, now not only do I not have the polish, I used all my remover getting the paint of the tile. So, now it is shoes and socks for me until I can get to the store and buy more remover.

Is it really the end of November?

Today we washed our cars in the driveway!!! (OK, maybe not so much WE... Thanks Sam). Anyway, it was such a nice day that we didn't even need sweatshirts but I still put Cash on one just cuz it was cute!!

Cash is about to give Izzy a kiss and I think she is looking at me to save her.

Cash is SOOOO excited to be outside!!! He hates being trapped in the house.

Always a helper...


This is my house!!! I love it. Except for the desert yard and the driveway (it is about 1/10 the size of our Herriman driveway) and I wish that we had a 3 car garage, and an RV pad, and grass in the back yard. But besides that I do love it. (Oh, and I wish it was in UT!!)

A rough day at the park.

On Saturday the boys went out shooting so us girls took the kids to the park. Cash was walking down the stairs of the playground and fell HEAD FIRST down the last 2 stairs. He had a HUGE goose egg on his head and a scrape on his neck. Luckily we were all ready to go so we just packed the kids up and left.

I called Sam and told him that I was thinking of taking him to the Dr to check for a CONCUSSION. He talked me out of it... By the time that Sam got home this is what it looked like:

I am pretty sure that Sam thinks that I am crazy for wanting to take Cash to the Dr for a little rug burn, but I SWEAR there WAS a goose egg. Kids just heal so dang fast.

And people think my kid is the wild one...

Just chillin'

Go crazy!!!

hahahahaha!

Pregnancy questions...

So not only am I reading blogs of people I don't even know, I am now stealing things from their blog, haha. I copied this from http://welcometomysoapbox.blogspot.com/ . I put a star by my favorite.

Q: Should I have a baby after 35?

A: No, 35 children is enough.



Q : I'm two months pregnant now. When will my baby move?

A: With any luck, right after he finishes college.



Q : What is the most reliable method to determine a baby's sex?

A: Childbirth.



Q: My wife is five months pregnant and so moody that sometimes she's borderline irrational.

A: So what's your question?



Q : My childbirth instructor says it's not pain I'll feel during labor, but pressure. Is she right?

A: Yes, in the same way that a tornado might be called an air current.



Q: When is the best time to get an epidural?

A: Right after you find out you're pregnant.



Q : Is there any reason I have to be in the delivery room while my wife is in labor?

A: Not unless the word 'alimony' means anything to you.



*Q: Is there anything I should avoid while recovering from childbirth?

*A: Yes, pregnancy.



Q : Do I have to have a baby shower?

A: Not if you change the baby's diaper very quickly



Q : Our baby was born last week. When will my wife begin to feel and act normal again?

A: When the kids are in college.

Not exactly what you expect to find on your couch...

Yes. A lizard. A shedding lizard. On my couch.

Boys day out...

Sam and William had a day off so they decided to take the boys out shooting rabbits.

This is what Cash is going to look like in 30 years (only I will have taught Cash NOT to point guns at people).

Small world

When I lived in Salt Lake I ALWAYS saw people from Ephraim, but I definitely didn't expect to run into anyone in AZ. A few nights a week I serve at Texas Road House, and I was dropping off salads at a table and it was Toby and Emily Ryan!!! Emily and I had been in contact through our blogs so I knew they lived here, I just didn't know that they lived so close to my work! It was so good seeing them their cute kids!

I'm a little selfish, so??

So Molly's sister Stacey came to Arizona to see Molly's new little baby, Sadie. I am sure that Stacey was hoping for a lot of lounging around, holding a sweet little newborn, eating junk food and reading gossip magazines. But no. Not only did Cash give her kids the flu, I made her take pic's of my kids. Sorry about your luck getting me as a Sister's-sister in law. :)

She did such an awesome job!!! Cash never holds still long enough for a pic but somehow Stacey got a few of him. And how perfect are these ones of Isabell?

"A basket? Really? You put me in a basket?"

If the shoes fit, buy a dress to match.

Stacey's website

Last Christmas Sam gave me a really nice Cannon Rebel XTi camera that I have still not learned to use... Unlike me, Stacey bought a really nice Nikon and taught herself how to use it. AND she bought photoshop and taught herself how to use that. AND when she learns how to do something new she posts it on her blog so that YOU can learn!!!! http://staceybishopphotography.blogspot.com/

Somehow while doing all of that she raises 3 kids (and a husband), runs the family bakery, is Young Women's President and rearrangs her furniture at midnight.

Yes, we all hate her a little.

Momma's little helper

So this morning I was sitting at my table talking to Tracey and I saw Cash walk over and put one of Isabell's diapers in the garbage. I got up and told him not to throw it away because it wasn't dirty (I assumed it wasn't dirty since I obviously don't leave dirty ones on the ground). When I looked over into the room that he was playing in, I saw that he had unzipped Isabell's pj's and taken off her diaper and that is what he was throwing away!!!

I would have taken a picture but I don't trust baby's with no diapers so I put a new diaper on Izzy asap.

What $9 can buy...

My newest love/hate relationship: coupons.

You can't see it very well but there are 6, yes SIX, cases of huggies wipes there.
Coupons are SUCH a pain but sooooo worth it. When you start cutting them out you might be tempted to cut yourself, but it all pays off in the store. It is almost like a game. :)
