Saturday, April 2nd - Easter egg hunt detour

Tony and I thought it would be fun to take our kids to the Clearfield City egg hunt. Well we both thought each other checked out the time. I we arrived just in time when the people started leaving. We missed it. Oh, well. We even told my parents to meet us there at the wrong time. Well of course Kaylie was devastated because we kept telling her we were going to go to an Easter egg hunt. We went with plan B and I ran home and got some eggs and filled them with candy I got that week and we did a hunt in my parents basement. Tony had the job of hiding the eggs while I entertained them upstairs. The kids liked that. Next year we will just have to plan better. Lesson learned. Kaylie kept finding all the eggs. Brycen kept stopping to open the eggs and eat the candy. He did not want to search for more. He was more interested in eating the few he had.

March 26th 2010 - KateLyn's, my cousin Andrew, bridal shower at Aunt Bonnie's

I have this theory about Kaylie. She loves Andrew, Uncle Lee and my friend Ben. They are all really tall. She is just drawn to them. She just must like tall guys. Whenever we got to Aunt Bonnie's she asks where Andrew is. Like she has a little crush on him. That is what my mom and Carlee say. I guess it is okay for a 3 year old to have a little cousin crush. No harm done. Afterall, Andrew is so cute with her. Kaylie loved "helping" Andrew and KateLyn open their bridal shower gifts. She kept bringing the gifts to them. I hope they didn't mind too much.

Sunday, February 21st - Celebrating my 31st birthday

Celebrating my 31st birthday at after at my mom and dad's house. Wow! I can't believe I am this age. Lots of fun years though. It seems Marie Calendars always has their pie sales in February so we get one instead of cake. I would pick pie over cake any day. I always love a good Dutch or French Apple pie. Yum!We made brownies to go along with the pie. Kaylie loved blowing out candles. We let her blow out one on her brownie.

Sunday, February 14, 2010 - Valentine's Day in St. George

- Cassie had a soccer tournament in St. George and Mark asked if they could use my parents second home in Ivins. My parents rule is they can't stay there without Tony or I going with so we went with them. It was a fun weekend. We visited the St. George temple grounds too. Brycen loved playing in the dirt here at Pioneer Park with Jayden. A fun free thing to do on a Sunday. The weather was so nice we didn't need our coats on. It was probably 60 degrees.

I don't know a kid that doesn't like to hide and go seek. They loved hiding in our entertainment center. They kept having me close the door and find them. Hmmm.... Where did they go?It's so funny. Kaylie loves to hide. She keeps telling me, Mom, you count and I will hide. By the time I count to 10 she already comes out of her hiding spot and finds me. I never have to search for her. Too funny.

Brycen is so cute. When he is interested in something or concentrating on something he sticks his tongue out a little. Absolutely adorable I think.

Kaylie's Photography (January 13th)

Kaylie loved to take my camera and take pictures. I didn't know she took all these pictures until I downloaded them on the computer. Did pretty good I think. Tony and I joke about how she says camera. She calls it "cameer."Brycen just loves the vacuum and my mop. He screams a happy squeal when I turn the vacuum on and wants to vacuum. He calls it "bacuum." These pictures of Brycen she did was really cute I think. Maybe better than I could have done. A funny picture of me mopping. I guess this is how I look from Kaylie's point of view.

Some cute kids playing in the front room. They all get along well. I got my daycare license last March and got some referrals from the state for kids to watch. I have been watching Xander and Lizzy Lindsay since August 2009. Piper is my coworker, Angie, at State Farm's daughter. I watch her every other Wednesday. It gets a little crazy but I think Kaylie and Brycen like the extra kids to play with. At least I hope so.

I haven't meet a kid that doesn't like to paint or color. This is Piper (my coworker Angie's daughter) with Kaylie. I get to watch every other Wednesday.

January 2nd 2010
I left Tony home with 15 month old Brycen and 3 year old Kaylie while I went to work on Saturday morning at State Farm. Kids in the dryer. You have to admit that it is cute isn't it? I loved getting into a dryer as a kid. A fun hiding spot too. Too bad I can't get in it now.
