For those of you who don't know... we have connections and talk to Santa!I have an Uncle (Uncle Doug) who has an awesome job; he works with radio's. He has this really cool "radio" room with walkie-talkies and a whole bunch of other stuff that I don't know the names of.Anyway, he as a radio tower in his back yard that is taller than his house. This special antenna is aimed right at the North

We finally had our first really awesome snowstorm. It snowed for three days and I loved every minute of it. We just had to get out and play. This was Lily's first time playing in the snow.She had so much fun. Her snow suit is a little small so when she fell over, she couldn't get up:-)I can't believe she sat there long enough to let me bury her in the snow.This is Vincent and Jacob. They

Let me start by talking a little bit about Lily...She is BUSY, BUSY, BUSY! It is a wonderful quality and also a pain-in-my-butt quality. Lily loves to help me clean, do laundry, load the dish washer, etc. I love this about her but... IT IS KILLING ME! It is killing me because, as you may have guessed... She ISN'T helping AT ALL! Sometimes she even likes to help without being asked. This is

Vincent had is on-stage debut as Tiny Tim on November 27th 2009. It was our opening night and it went very well. I must say Vincent was "spot on!" I, however, got incredibly sick right in the middle of the show. Yes folks... I muddled through but was down with the flu the rest of our Thanksgiving weekend. Poor Josh:(Here are some highlights of the show:Vincent with our director "Mr. Jerry."

Here is a little clip of Vincent in rehearsal. He is doing such a great job and each time he gets better and better. I have to say that this rehearsal wasn't one of his better ones however, it is fun to see him anyway.This rehearsal is in the theatre that we will be performing in, but this isn't what it will look like. They still have Little Shop of Horrors going on right now so the theater looks

This is one of the "press pictures" for the show. I am supposed to receive more and I will post them as soon as she sends them. This is Vincent with Eric who plays the role of "Bob Cratchet".Vincent is doing great. We are a week away from opening night. We had our first dress rehearsal last night. The costume and makeup crew were there and also the owners of the company. They had never seen

Well, I have done it again... I have waited too long to post and now I am completely uninspired to write anything. However, I will do my best and try not to bore any of you. I will make up for it with lots of pictures.Halloween...We love our neighborhood as all of you know, but when it comes to Halloween, it is a big fat dud! So, this year, we decided to go to our good friends in Pleasant Grove-

So... I never thought I would say this but... Vincent had his first publicity photo shoot yesterday. It went very well. Vincent got to take pictures by himself and also with Bob Cratchet. They looked amazing. In fact, all the costumes in this show are AMAZING! Everyone who had their photo's taken looked great. I snapped a few pictures with my cell phone but as soon as I get the professional

Vincent just landed the part of Tiny Tim in A Christmas Carol at the Hale Theater. We get to be in a play together. How great is that?!?!?!I was in rehearsal one Saturday and the director announced that they were looking for another boy to play Tiny Tim. I told him that I had a five-year old son and he asked that I bring him the following Monday for an audition.I ran home as fast as I could and

On Oct. 5th I went to the Hale Theatre in Orem to audition for Charles Dickens', A Christmas Carol.It all came about because I started taking voice from a teacher who works for the Hale Theatre. At the end of my first lesson, she asked me if I would be interested in auditioning for A Christmas Carol. I said "Heck ya!" She was very encouraging and felt I would be perfect for several different

Vincent is very much enjoying kindergarten! Every Friday, the class has some sort of activity to go along with the theme of the week. This week the kids were learning about the letter D and got to invite their dad's and bring doughnuts:) Since Utah is one hour ahead, we lucked out that Josh could go because he doesn't have to start work until 9. What a treat for Vincent and Dad! The kids got to

I am so excited... Fall Is Here and there are so many fun things to do around fall time. The local farms have pumpkin patches, the haunted forests come out, Lagoon has "Frightmares," just to name a few.To kick start the season, we went to Gardner Village in West Jordan. It is an historical site where they have turned barns and old houses into shops and restaraunts, and surrounding it all are

Let me preface this by saying, all Lily had to eat the entire day was dairy products!SO...The day started with a bottle and some pancakes for Lily. We waited for Vincent to get out of school so that we could meet up at the Gateway in Salt Lake with the cousins. All went well, except that Lily didn't really want to eat lunch. She had two bites of Vincent's macaroni, watermelon and some ice cream.

This week we went to Wheeler Farm with my cousins and their kids. It is a historical farm that is located in Murry, UT and the best part of it all is... IT'S FREE!!!! About once a week my cousins and I get the kids together. Most of the time I drive to Bountiful and we go to Lagoon, however, now that it is closed during the week, we find other things to do. This week was Wheeler Farm week. It is

Kids and their bright ideas!!! Last Saturday, my neighbor and I were chit-chatting when we realized our boys and two other boys had a table set up on the sidewalk with cups and water bottles. Then, we noticed two of the other boys were at someone's house with cups of water. "What in the world are they doing" I thought? Here's what went down:Jaden (the one with the harmonica) showed up at Ashley's

Well, we finally made it to the portrait studio after having to cancel twice. The first time I cancelled was because Lily was teething and miserable (not sleeping well) and I was still stressing about what they should wear. And then, I cancelled the second time because Vincent fell out of the cherry tree the night before the appointment and had a HUGE bump right in the middle of his forehead.So,

I can't believe it!!! I am officially the mother of a kindergartner. Vincent's first day of school was Aug. 27th 2009, one week and a day after all the other grades in the school began. Vincent went in for his kindergarten testing on Aug. 19th and did a great job. Did any of us doubt that he would? They test the all the children to see where the are learning-wise, and place those who are behind

Lily turned 1 year old on June 12th 2009. We were in AZ for her first birthday and a lot of friends and family turned out for the big bash. We had her birthday at my sisters apartment complex by the pool. It was a party with all the food fixing's and the best part is all the cousins were there and we all had a blast. Unfortunately, I lost all my pictures off my camera so all I have of her

And that's the way it's done:)Actually, I have to say the entire fishin' experience started out with my dad casting a spinner into his ear. Yes my friends, he hooked himself... by far the biggest catch EVER!This video is only six seconds long for two reasons:1) I had to hurry before the pain kicked in.2) I was the one who had to pry it out of his ear and this was not an easy task.

Mother's Day for me started Saturday night when I fell asleep at 9:30 and pretty much slept through the night (as much as a parent can with a 10-month old). I then got woken up at 9:30 a.m. by Vincent and Josh who gave me their cards right away.Vincent was very excited about Mother's Day. He would say things like "I want to sit by you because it Mother's Day," or "I want to hold your hand because

Jelly shoes are back and my baby is wearing them with style. OK, so her fat is bulging out of the tops of them and they look like they are cutting off her circulation but I assure you, they are not too tight despite all appearances. We were at "Babies R Us" yesterday and I had a moment of weakness!!! I HAD to buy these jelly shoes. I figure since Lily is now standing by herself, then it is only

You know you're a redneck when you are cookin' breakfast outside on the griddle and you're not even camping! I definitely had a very hilarious morning last Sunday. I had just finished cleaning my house the day before and--for those of you with no vent over your stove or who have a very small kitchen will understand the reason for my madness--I didn't want to stink my house up with eggs and bacon!

I can't believe my baby is almost one-year old. It has gone by quickly when I look back on it all. It seems since she started crawling that she has just started doing all kinds of things.This is video of her standing up by herself, which is very exciting for her. No really, when she stands she laughs and thinks it's a game. It is so cute. In this video she actually stood for over a minute so I

Since I have lived in Utah--Provo of all places--I have found myself appreciating the small and simple things. For example: rain, the four seasons, my family, the smell of the shrubs after it rains, raising the shades in my house each morning and seeing the beautiful mountains, the blessing of a wonderful neighborhood, spending more time with my family because there are less distractions. It also

I believe if you were to ask some one what they think of when they think of Utah in the Spring, most would say, "Tulips." At least I would anyway. The flowers here are so beautiful--not to mention all the trees and luscious green grass.My cousins called me one evening and invited us to join them at Thanksgiving Point to see the Festival of the Tulips. We didn't hesitate for a moment; we were

I thought this picture was so cute I just had to post it! This is Lily sporting her first pair of shorts of the season and really showing off those thighs (all 5 of them). The funniest thing is that the shorts would get caught in the roll between the top of her thigh and her diaper. If you look closely in the picture, you can see a little of what I am talking about.We had a week of beautiful

Lily first crawled (Tues) March 17th. She is 9 months and 21 pounds in this picture.My little Lily is growing up!She is soooo the opposite of Vincent. Vinny would sit exactly where you put him and wouldn't budge an inch because he had to analyze everything around him. I never had to baby-proof the house; heck, I even tried to SHOW him the pots and pans and would look at me like I was crazy!

I had just finished feeding Lily green beans and milk, after which Josh picked her up, looked at her and smiled....Then, she barfed on him.Josh was laughing and screaming all at the same time, "Hurry, get it off. It's still warm!"Well, of course, I had to make him wait so I could get the camera... Nice one Lily! I know...daddy makes me want to throw up sometimes too!:)Love you Josh :)

At the end of January, we took a two week trip to Arizona. To my shame, I hardly took any pictures because the trip was nothing less than a whirlwind. If you are thinking "Well she sucks! She didn't even come to see me," well, that is because the entire second week I was there was spent moving my mom out of her house and into an apartment at the VERY VERY last minute. That is a very long story

OK, now that you have gasped in horror, I will answer the question that is going through your head... "How on Earth did he know that word?!?!?!?!?"One evening we were having fun in the tub and I said "Vincent? Can you spell a word?" He looked down and the first two letters he saw were S and X. So he sounded out "SX. SX. SEX. Six. Sex". I said "Yes Vincent, six. How do you spell six?" Well he kept

OK, I know, I know... It is March and I am just getting to Christmas! I am very behind but for very good reason! I have been spending a lot of time with my family and we even took a two-and-a-half week vacation to Arizona (minus Josh). Before you get really mad that I didn't make a trip to see you, there is also very good reason for that as well, but we won't get a head of ourselves.THE LEAD UP

I know I am terribly behind on my blog but I had to post this right away!Yesterday, Jan. 14th, we were watching American Idol and Lily got mad, yelled out a short cry, and then proceeded to say "Mama!" My heart melted. Lily turned 7 months on the 12th. I will update Christmas pictures soon!

My how the time flies!Even though I thought the first four months felt like an eternity, in hindsight, it went really fast! I can't believe all that we have been through in the last 6 months. Lily was born, we moved out of state and Josh started school.Lily has finally turned a corner. She is MUCH better now and actually enjoyable. Not to mention she is as cute as a button, and she and Vinny are

I wished for snow and boy did we get it!!! This is our beautiful winter wonderland and we LOVE it! Gotta love my husband... shorts in the snow. I guess being Arizonan doesn't have much of an effect on his blood. I told him we were going to take a family picture in winter gear and he said he wasn't putting pants on. Just to get him to put on a jacket was a challenge. Another example of his

My dad came to visit October 23rd thru the 27th. I called him and said,"Dad, the weather is going to be clear this weekend. Get up here so we can fish!" And so he did:)We were on a "Fishin Mission" and no one was getting in our way. We went fishing everyday that he was here (morning and night). A BIG "Thanks" to my neighbor who watched the kids for me. She is the bomb!Some of you may ask...Why

I don't mean to brag but...Are my kids adorable or what?!? Surprisingly, picture day didn't go too badly. It started off a little shaky because Lillian refused to smile for the first 10 minutes. So I said to the lady "Lets try taking pictures of only her and let Vincent get her to smile." Of course it totally worked and she was on a roll after that! He is the only one who can get her to bust a

Thanksgiving eve, I decided to let Thomas and Eric spend the night. The next morning at 6:30 A.M. I was making the boys breakfast and heard the following conversation take place...Thomas (8yrs) : So, uh, Vincent... what language did you speak back in Arizona? Did you speak English or did you speak another language? What languages do you speak?Vincent (in his "philosophical voice"): Weeell, I

I have officially lost 10.5 pounds! I am 140 and very excited to hit the 130's. I realized today, this whole time I have miscalculated my weight. I didn't account for one pound that I had lost. So when I looked at the scale today, I saw 140 and thought "That should be ten pounds total and I thought I had only lost eight pounds so far." So, I was very happy about that!I will be posting a

Lillian and I sat down one day to play the piano. I often sit her in the high chair next to the piano and Vincent and I will play songs and sing and to her. She loves the music. So I thought I would let her get some hands on experience. She is learning "Twinkle Twinkle" and likes it because she watches a DVD called Baby Mozart that plays this song. She sat for about 10 minutes and played

I lost another pound and a half for a total of 8 and a half pounds. That puts me at 141. I am almost to my next bracket... the 130's!!!! My 10% goal is 135 and my lifetime weight watcher goal is 125. I'm not too far. Yeah!

Why is it that the more fat on a baby and cellulite the better? I'll tell you why... because it is flippin' ADORABLE!Lily had her 4 month check up last month and weighed in at almost 16 pounds. She is 5 months from yesterday and I am sure she weighs a little more. Vinny and I love her chunk! Vincent says all the time "Oh I feel like I just want to eat her cheeks." I wonder where he heard that?:)

"Dear Heavenly Father thank you for this day. Thank you for Dad, Mom, me and Lily bless us to be safe. Help the poor and the sick. I had a horrible day today. I bless that tomorrow I won't have a horrible day. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen."Why exactly his day was horrible is beyond me but apparently it was.

I weighed in and lost 3 and a half more pounds for a total of 7 pounds in one month. That takes me from 150.5 to 143.5.I had a week in the month where I maintained thanks to my Dad and his yummy apple dumplings made from the apples on my apple tree. Thanks Dad:)

Well almost the whole neighborhood made it in this picture. This is a picture taken on Halloween night of Lillian, Vincent, Jauslyn (his cousin), his 4 boy pals, and grandma Robin. Vincent was supposed to be Superman (I got him the costume and everything) but changed his mind at the last minute and wanted to be Spider man AGAIN. Jausy was a glamour girl. Surprise, surprise:) My little Lily was a

Vincent and I were so excited because we woke up, looked outside and there was snow! For those of you who live in Arizona and don't know what snow is... It is:* precipitation falling from clouds in the form of ice crystals* a layer of snowflakes (white crystals of frozen water) covering the ground.Vincent was beside himself. We have been waiting for snow (that actually sticks to the ground)

10. "When is Lily going to have breath like mine?" (Vincent said this when we had Lily on a formula that smelled like garlic. It was the worst formula I have ever smelled. One little dribble on her check and she was contaminated for the rest of the day.)9. "We should have had lunch at the Olive Garden."8. "Do you know what I'm think-about'n?"7. "Here you go mom... you got a text."6. Josh: "

We have been enjoying the fall season. For those of you in Arizona who don't know what Fall is...the change of season from Summer to Fall when all of the trees start to die and the leaves fall off the trees.There are so many things to do...Go to the BYU campus and feed the ducks:)There is the custest pond right on campus where there are about 60 ducks.

Well, I started weight watchers on Monday, October 13th. I weighed in at a luscious 150.5 pounds which is actually a half pound less than my heaviest. My first week went awesome. I lost 3 and a half pounds putting me at 147 even. I will continue to post my progress mostly to keep me accountable. Why else would I post my weight for the world to see. I will weigh in every Monday morning. Wish me

It is official! The dry wall is up, the carpet has been laid, the movie room is put together and the train set is up! What more can a four-year old boy ask for? Actually the attic isn't totally finished but it is coming along. We still need to do some painting and then I want to decorate in the "movie room" but it is usable and boy has Vincent been using it! He has been up there every day and so

I am so excited because it snowed for the first time on October 11th and 12th. It was cold and beautiful with a high of 51 degrees. This picture is taken from my back yard. The mountain looks a lot farther away then it actually is. The mountains got the most at about 6 in.Vincent loved to watch the flakes float down even though they melted when they hit the ground.

All of you probably already know this but... I LOVE THE MARTIN GIRLS!!! Thanks to Thayne and Joy, they were willing to sacrifice time with their girls on their October break so that I could have them for a week (which I might add was not long enough). For those of you who are wondering "Who are the Martin girls?", they are students of mine from Arizona. The whole family has become friends of

Vincent was very determined to change Lily's diaper by himself. I didn't have time to grab the video camera and my phone was all I had on hand. That is why there are 7 videos and there is no way to stream them into one. It is a little annoying but worth it. Each clip is 30 seconds long.This was Vincent's first attempt to change Lillian's diaper. I say not bad for his first try. He obviously

Well, for those of you haven't talked to me recently, this is actually one of Lily's happier moments. Lillian is 3 months now, super cute and totally the devil! I can't take her anywhere. Not even for a walk to the convenience store down the street. I had my mental breakdown two days ago. She cried all day and I just cried right along with her. Vincent doesn't seen to mind though.

For those of you who don't know, I am an awesome fisher woman! I love to fish and I have been taught well by my father. Our latest fishing trip began last Saturday morning--my father and I geared up with waders, poles, lots of "Blue Fox #2 Spinners" and beef jerky for a full day of fishin'. We set out for the middle Provo river about 30 to 40 minutes from my house. It was a beautiful drive. (

Apparently a lot of people complained about all the assigned reading but Josh is very much looking forward to it. Reading is his high heaven! Today, (Sept. 3rd) was his second day and a lot more discouraging. They started class and the first thing
