Only for a moment...

I get a kick out of this picture. Its not the best picture but I think that it is totally Little C. He set the 2 cars, that occupy his little hands, down just long enough to play a little tune.

Trust me he was checking to make sure that they were still there.

Our Spring Break

Started with a Baby Shower for my littlest sister. My sister and I made her this gift.

A Onesie Cake I wanted to make something a little more unique than a diaper cake. Plus she is going to use cloth diapers instead of disposables. It is made up of Onesies, Receiving blankets, burp cloths and a few cloth diapers. We decorated it with pacifiers, hair accessories, teethers, socks and shoes and a few toys. It was fun! Babies are so FUN!


The main event was Sara and Brad were getting Sealed in the Logan Temple. The Sealing was awesome and I was so glad that I was able to attend. So happy that they were able to be sealed to each other.


Here is most of the Family.

Later that day we were able to go to my Uncle Mikes house. The kids had a blast. They got to ride horses and hold baby bunnies and get eggs from the chickens. They had a great time.

Little A was "chomping at the bit" to get onto that horse. I told Grandpa that if she didn't get a ride she would have been devastated.

Little C was excited too, he kept saying "Hee Haw! My turn!" When he finally got his turn I was a bit nervous. he wanted to hang onto the reigns and I thought that he was going to fall off. I made him hold onto the saddle instead.

Little D did not want to ride. I made him. After his turn he didn't want to get off and said he wanted to ride a horse all the time.


The next day we went to a giant arcade type of place with laser tag, go cars, bumper boats, bowling and tons of games. Little D was tall enough to drive the go carts. He said "Now I am like a real race car driver!"

Merry-Go-Round


The rest of our Vacation was spent in Arizona. While there we just hung out with family and had good times together.

To sum up, it was a Great Spring Break.

Kids are funny little people

Today at the dinner table the kids were arguing over what a rectangular prism was and weather or not that is the shape of a gas tank. Little A was drawing it in the air and Little D was correcting her. She had it just about right

Also and interesting conversation about staring contests.

Then there was talk about Justin Bieber, wherein Little A says, "I can't say his name cause it freaks me out!"

There was also talk of who Little D was going to marry, which I must say is a much better choice than his last one. This one is at least a member. He said that they already had a "conversation" about it. I didn't realize he knew the meaning of the word conversation.

Where did these kids come from?

Our Dairy Farm Adventure

And it was an adventure! It started off rushed this morning when we woke with only 30 mins to get 2 kids ready for the bus and Myself for a field trip and then another to go to a friends. We made it though. But then we were sitting on the bus (Which was the most exciting thing for most of the kids) and I realized that we were going where there are COWS! Lots of cows! Which means lots of Cow POO! I was so not dressed for that. I wasn't wearing tennis shoes like the other Moms. Nope my nice green flats. Little A wasn't wearing old pants and rain boots or tennis shoes. Nope She was wearing a new shirt with new tights and a WHITE skirt and dress shoes! What was I thinking? The only thing that was calming me was that the skirt was almost 2 years old so I figured it had paid its dues. I told her to just stay on her feet at least and not fall over.



When we got there we had milk and cookies while we were waiting our turn to go into the milking barn. If I had known what that was going to be like I would have stayed out and watched from the windows. Little A could hardly contain herself she wanted to see where the cows were milked. So in we went. Her teacher had told me on the bus about how when the cows poop it kind of spashes because they have to keep washing the floors. I had no Idea.... You are in this Isle probably just as wide as the isles in the grocery store, only there aren't groceries on either side. Nope, COWS! Not just cows but cow BUTTS! All hooked up to milking machines. The kids and parents slowly filed in and I thought that we were going to walking through and around. So when the line quit moving I gave it a couple seconds. But as the cows got more and more nervous so did I. When cows are nervous or scared they poop and pee! So I told Little A to go up to the front so we could get through faster. Once I reached the front I realized why we had stopped moving. THERE WAS NO WHERE TO GO! IT WAS A DEAD END! I was like you have to be kidding me! I could have just stayed by the door looked at the first couple cows and been fine! Now we had to fight the crowd and go back. Meanwhile dodging the pooping cows. One would start and we would have to stop and wait until it stopped splattering. Even once they were done I was scared that it would start up just as I was going by. It was like a mine field. There were quite a few people that got some splattered. I'm sure that I didn't make it out unscathed but I want to fool myself with ignorance. Little A had some on her shoes and socks. Like I said I'm sure it was elsewhere but we decided to ignore it. Needless to say we changed as soon as we got home.



After the milking barn we went and saw the Baby cows. That was fun, they were all within on day old. One was only a couple hours old. It was kind of sad that they don't get to stay with their Moms. They take them and raise them somewhere else until they are eating grains. But the littlest one took its first couple of steps right there. Probably only because it was terrified of all the kids.


After that we went and saw all the things that they feed the cows. Then we went home. It was quite interesting.

Little C is 3!!!

I can't believe that he is 3 already! Time goes by so fast. I guess I have to stop using him as an excuse for the extra lbs. Oh well....

Yesterday was his birthday and it was my turn for our little play group so I decided to do a little party for him.


Nothing major just friends playing outside and a pinata and cupcakes.


Little C had this for about 2 seconds and it was already in his hair!

If you think that this is bad look down....


This is one of our newest little friends and this is what she can do with a cupcake in about 10 seconds! (Take that Little C)

They had fun.

There were 8 extra kids here.

It was a little crazy. But fun. He loved all of his presents. He was very protective of his car's that he received.

In fact after this shot there is one of him elbowing his friend back. He was just too close.

All the kids wanted to look at them and he was not too happy about that Idea.

Later that evening once Big J had gotten home he was able to open his presents from us.

I made him a Car's blanket

I love this picture even though its not very clear. He is in Car's Heaven


Grandma and Grandpa Moss gave him this little Lightening McQueen rolling suitcase. He puts all his little cars in and pulls it around. He will be using it for his trip to Utah soon.

Now he can even take "Light Queen" on the boat with his new swim suit and shirt!

Here is a video of his big present! (coming soon) Followed by one of his cake.
