Honestly....

Really why do I bother.....I spent all day deep cleaning my house scrubbing floors and walls I need to do it more often but I think why? so in a few seconds Mason will spill all of his lunch, breakfast or dinner on the kitchen floor ( he spills everything) and then drip his sippy cup through the house, or Harley ( dog) will take a sippy cup off the kids table and chew the lid right off so it spills all over the carpet or get into the garbage can and drag it all through the house when we are not home. Or boys not concentrating on aiming....so gross!!!!! Yes this it what happened right after I spent hours cleaning. Ugh!! But then I think again...it feels so nice to have a spotless house for just a moment ...yes only moments I say, because thats how long my house stays spotless after cleaning up. I figure thats my job....but sometimes i dream that I can be like samantha on bewitch and with a twitch of my nose...walla the house is clean. Oh how nice would that be but I will just continue dreaming.

Yeah Aiden!!!

He finally did it...he finally learned how to ride his bike without training wheels. He has been riding his cousins pink princess bike for awhile since i ran over his thomas bike and broke the training wheels off it. The pink bike had training wheels that were off set. So he knew when the little wheels weren't touching that he was balancing. I told him to keep practicing and soon he will be able to ride his thomas bike without training wheels. He wanted to learn because our adult neighbors were making fun of him for riding a girls bike....I did take off the princess stickers so it didn't look so girly. The other night we told him lets go try and easy as pie he did it on the first try. He hasn't been off it since he learned how. (where's Aiden.?..let me guess riding his bike) he loves it.

First try....nice job!!!!!

Micah demonstrating.....ha ha!!!!

...............still on his bike.

Showing me that he is all geared up just in case he falls he said.

Mason wanting to try just like brother. A few more years mase!

Little Golfers

Nice position, but other way mason..

Aiden has been wanting to go golfing for sometime now. There is a golf course by his school and usually once a week he will remind me that we need to go. So we finally did but we did mom's version which is miniature golf. I think he wanted to go golfing just to drive the carts. To his disappointment there were no golf carts. It was fun, although it started to down pour good thing we were almost done. I think that was my kids favorite part was being able to play in the rain. I think Mason and Aiden did better than i did...it seriously takes me more than three times to get that ball into that little hole.

How did i know he was going to aim it right for that puddle.

The Holy Ghost talking

Today we got back to our house from the park and our power is out. Ugh! I heard Aiden in the back room saying something about his heart and then i heard him saying something about the Holy Ghost. I asked him what did you say....he said his heart is blinking and that the Holy Ghost is telling him to get out of the house now. Then I said really, and he said YES very dramatic. So i said Okay lets get out of here then. Nothing happened. I thought I would act on it so he knows that when the Holy Ghost is telling him something he should do it. I just had this lesson in relief society last week. He must have had the same lesson in primary. It was touching that at age 4 he knows that the Holy Ghost does talk to you and you should listen to his promptings. My little boy is growing up so much.

Mustang Tribute

I had to do a mustang post. Since Micah's number one love in his life are mustangs besides his family and yes he has gotten Aiden loving them just as much as he does. Aiden can spot a mustang from anywhere and it doesn't matter what model it is he knows it's a mustang. So when he turned three for christmas we got him a powerwheel mustang. I have to say it is the best thing we have invested. He has had it for a year and a half and we have had to replace the tires three times already. He says when he grows up he is going to have an orange mustang since orange is his favorite color. Then he wants a mustang monster truck to drive to work ( there is no such thing as one...but we won't burst his bubble yet) He is a natural at driving it's in his gene since micah loves to drive. He quickly learned how to do 180's down the steep hill of our neighbors driveway. Micah wants to put him in gocart racing when he turns five. I think he will love it too.

Happy Anniversary

We celebrated our Anniversary last night. I can't believe it has been 7 years. It was actually last tuesday the 19th. We went to the Marriot at thanksgiving point. It was really nice. We didn't get there until late but really we just wanted to get away to have a day to sleep in without kids waking us up. We sure did we didn't get up until 10:00 it was so nice and they had breakfast which was really good too. Then we went to massage envy for a couples massage....i think i was in heaven it was so relaxing. I know i shouldn 't share family secrets but this is so hilarious.....so actually the massage was for last night but micah made me cancel (I can't say why because Micah read my post and made me delete it but it's so hilarious.) Lets just say it involved a John and Co. He he.

Masons birthday party

We celebrated Mason's birthday today with the fam. I didn't do a one year party so i decided to do one this year. It was such a crazy day today I wish Micah didn't have to work. From taking Aiden to soccer , but first running to get team treats. Then going to the grocery store, then getting the boys hair cut and then going to the bank. Coming home and starting the birthday cake....oh then i forgot about Aiden's t-ball pictures so I had to run real quick and go do them. Coming home and giving me an hour to make the cake bath the kids, go get pizza for the party and fill up all the water balloons and pack everything up to go to the park for the party....Where is micah.grrrr!!! I got it all done and the party turned out nice. We had it at the park by our house. It was a lot of fun. It was such a nice day Aiden wanted to do water balloons and squirt guns for all the cousins. And oh boy everyone got so soaked including Grandpa Dale it was so hilarious I have never seen him run before and he was running from every grandkid trying to soak him. They all got each other good. Mason loved it.

He's two

I can't believe Mason is two already. Oh my goodness. He has grown so much in the last 5 months. I remember at 18 months i thought is he ever going to talk and now he won 't shut up. He says full sentences now. He is so stinkin cute and he amazes me at some of the things he says. Although he gets most of it from his big brother. His new saying is "whats up guys" and sometimes he says " whats up dude" he says that to every little kid he sees at the park or store. He got a new choo choo track and him and Aiden were up until 11:00 playing with the train set. Thats what he wanted for his birthday is "choo choo tracks" he kept telling me and a "nay" (horse) he loves horses. When we are outside he says "bye momma see nays" there are horses a few houses down and he wants to walk over there every day to see them...maybe one day we will have to go horse back riding. For right now he just likes to see them. He chickens out when it comes to petting them. When we are driving he spots every horse, bobcat and big trucks there are and gets so excited. It's so cute.
His favorite things to do .....ride his bike, play with brother and daddy, go to grandma's house. Sit on his dog harley. Play tractors in the dirt and go to the park.
His favorite toy.... has to be his baby mickey doll, and what ever big brother is playing with. He likes thomas the tank, mqueen, mickey and bobcats and horses.
His favorite foods...He loves to eat icecream, otto pops and pizza, and chips and everything has to have some kind of dip. I know I know so healthy!
His favorite saying...."whats up dude" " thankyou ? he always says a name after thankyou either broder, daddy etc...."lets hide" "more popsicle" " big hug" "lets play" "come on"
Favorite songs....He loves to sing Jesus wants me for a sunbeam, patty cake, the wheels on the bus, spider man them song, itsy bitsy spider, twinkle twinkle and the ABC's.
He loves to over exagerate his owies. It's so funny and wants you to kiss everything better.

Mother's Day

Aiden and Mason helping Dad make dinner for Mother's Day.
This is Micah's homemade Strawberry Heaven cake Sooo good.

This was the best Mother's Day ever.....it's the first time I didn't have to cook a meal. My brother made half the dinner and Micah made the other half....yep Micah actually made something and it was sooooo good. He made this spinach fruit salad and a strawberry heaven cake Oh my goodness it was so good. Him and the boys surprised me with a cricut. I had no idea he was goin to get one. He's like you have only been hinting for one for the last two years. He he...I only asked him to do the laundry for me for one day but the cricut was a much better present.

The miracle of rice!

I have had my phone dropped in water about a dozen of times i think it had 12 lives. But this last drop in about did it. I couldn't get it to work and then someone told micah to put it in a bag of rice (it sucks out all the water apparently). It worked. So when my camera got dropped in water i decided to do the same thing. Surprise Surprise it worked. I cried for joy. I can't live without my camera.

Oh Crud!!!

So I finally found my camera....and I started to cry. I found it in the bottom of the washing machine. I swear I checked my jacket pocket for my camera but apparently I didn't. This is the fourth camera i have had in the last 5 years. It was the nicest one too. I am so sad I don't know what I'm going to do without my camera every day. sigh! I just hope it is fixable but i doubt it.
