TV Junkie!!!

I have to admit I am one of those moms that let their kids spend most of the day in front of the TV! After all that was how I was raised and I turned out OK! Well this was one of those days when I couldn't muster up enough energy to do much and Jared and Elizabeth were a bit bored... so I put Sponge bob Square pants on for them to watch together while I got Jamie some breakfast! Elizabeth just loves to cuddle with Jared.

SLEEPOVER!!

This was just one of those days when nothing went right! I didnt have time to make dinner because bathtime when too long, I missed Gossip Girl, I had a sink full of dishes and it was already a half hour past bed time, not to mention that Jared was stuck in SLC with work and would not be home for a while. So I said to myself " Forget it" and I started to take some pics of the kids playing together! I set Jared down in Lizzy's bed and came back and found her snuggling with Jared and her blankie! She said "mom can Jared sleep with me tonight I promise I will hug him and take care of him" my answer was " Not today"! But what a cute picture of them huh??

My Favorite Toys.

Jared is getting so big so quickly! He loves playing in his walker and he loves his rattle! This is kind of cool because these were Elizabeth's favorite toys when she was this little!!!

Our Mouse Trap!

Recently we discovered this winter that we had a small mouse.. yeah I know ... I hate mice! Then we also discovered that we had a Black Widow Spider problem. So we did the humane thing and got a Mouse/Spider Trap.. her name is Satasha, she was given to us by a friend. She is a big help! so far it is March and the spiders are coming out and she is getting rid of them before the girls see these scary spiders! EEEEEEEWWWWWWWWW!!!!! She is so lazy sometimes.. this was one night I found her waiting in the bathroom sink while I was in the shower, she tends to follow me around all day! But when we need her she comes to the resuce!

Cotton Candy

Here we are at the circus during intermission. Jared thought that it would be great to have some cotton candy for dessert after a wonderful dinner at the circus of hotdogs, french fries and of course chicken! So here are the girls with there sticky and sweet cotton candy... For them this was the best part of their meal, for Jared it was a matter of getting unstuck of cotton candy!

Elephant Ride

So we took the kids to the circus while it was here in little old Farmington... It was not that great of an experience! The elephants were tired and irritable through the entire ride. This elephant in particular was the one that the girls ended up riding. Right before they got on the elephant started to stomp and make all these loud noises at his masters, almost like he was saying "I am done I am not doing this tonight!!! " Once the girls got on he started swaying and stomping violently. Luckily the girls thought it was fun rather than scary! I am definately happy that they had an experience of a lifetime, but this is a once in a lifetime deal... no more elephant rides for my girls!

Big Boy Jared!!!

What an exciting couple of weeks we are having, watching our son growing up so quickly, I feel like I have lost all sense of time, everytime I look at Jared I cant believe how much he has grown. I love spending time with him playing on the floor and making funny faces at each other. It is a real treat to watch him eat his dinner every night and to help him stand and crawl and roll over! I think it finally hit me that he wasnt going to be my little boy forever when I placed him in his sister's little couch and he snuggled up under her blankie and grabbed a hold of her squishy red Al! He looks so grown up in this chair. I left him in it for about thirty minutes and came back to find him watching SpongeBob Squarepants! He is SO big...
