Boys Will Be Boys

Cass and I were crafting the other day.  Cam and Rex are now big enough to send outside together.  Nice!  Poor Coop was stuck inside, but not totally left out of the fun here.  Can you tell Rex put his hat on himself?  Do you think I need to clean my window?

If you notice that I'm not blogging quite as often, I'm sorry.  I've been pretty busy on my new blog.  If you missed it, click HERE to check it out.

Once There Was a Snowman

Today Jeff and Rex made a snowman!  A first for both of them.  (Yes, Jeff grew up in California and was too old for that by the time he moved to Utah.) 

Bade and I watched from the window.  (Sidenote: This little guy has now officially been outside of me longer than inside now.  It's happened so quickly.  Good thing he wasn't wearing that helmet in the womb.)

Here's the final product.

He was pretty proud of it.

I love my boys.

5 years

Today is our 5th year anniversary...

....and I wouldn't change a thing.

Jeff is an amazing husband and father.  He continues to exceed my expectations.  He is hard-working, funny, understanding, patient, and generous.  He is a lot of things that I am not.  He is the best thing that ever happened to me.  I love you, babe.

Scooting

Rex gets pretty excited when there is something he can do with Baden.  Today he got out his little rocket and so I put Baden in his walker.  They were pretty happy scooting around together.  I love seeing them play together.

I Am Momma - Hear Me Roar!

I wanted to tell you all about a new blog I'm starting.  The more I've gotten into crafting, the more I've wanted to share my ideas with others.  However, I don't like the idea of inviting a billion people to my personal blog.  So, let me introduce you to "I Am Momma - Hear Me Roar."

I've posted several things there that I've previously posted on this blog, but hang on.  There will be new stuff soon.  I just needed some things to jump start it. 

So, stop by, follow me, send some comment love.  It would make my day!  Thanks!

An Orange on a Toothpick

Well, these guys aren't the only ones around here wearing helmets.

Yup, Baden got a helmet. His head shape is pretty lopsided, so we took action. It's been a little hard to adjust to, but he's now wearing it 23/7. It's not really fun for either one of us, but hopefully later in life he won't be known as the kid with the weird-shaped head.
His little tufts of hair make their way out the whole on top. It's kind of funny. I got to pick the outside design and I thought this one was the coolest by far. No teddy bears for us!

Just look at that gummy little smile! He is such a trooper. Still no sign of any teeth, but he now says, "Mama!" He started saying it when we were in Wisconsin. It's funny...he only says it when he's upset - just like his brother always did.

St. George

We headed down to St. George this weekend for a little sun, family time, and bike time (for Jeff). Jeff found us a great place to stay. Rex was so excited to see the ducks and feed them. It was wonderful to be in some warmer weather for a few days. It makes me so anxious for spring.

Rex asks me a few times a day if it's summer yet. I can't wait till I can say, "YES!"
