What a time...

We have had so much fun lately. First, on March 14 our little man turned TWO. It is so weird. He loved his Cars themed birthday. I made a Lightning McQueen cake with car shaped sugar cookies and got him two huge car balloons from the movie. He had a lot of fun and so did Chad and I. It was so fun having the fam get together. Next up was Easter. I had to work that Saturday so Chad and his mom and dad took Jett down to the Bees stadium for the Jazz Bears Easter Egg Hunt. Chad said it was so nice becuase there wasn't too many people. Jett got a tone of Eggs. On Easter we went to my sister KayDee's house for dinner. My family, Kate's fam, and Mistee's fam (and our little bro Cole) had the best dinner and the kids had an egg hunt. It was fun seeing the kids together. The following Sat Chad took Jett to Baby Animal Days in Logan (I had to work again). They saw all sorts of animals (even some cute baby bears). Chad said Jett had so much fun discovering the animals. I wish I could've been there. Breaks my heart, but I am sure it was some good bonding time for the boys. If this summer is anything like the past month, we are going to be BUSY. Bring it on already...NO MORE SNOW!!!! (Picture post below)

Seriously?

We have been potty training Jett for a long time. He usually does well going pee but he will never go "the other one". Well, this week I decided to go hard core and just get it over with. Well, yesterday he only had one accident...but today, he has had FIVE in the last two hours. And I am talking peeing rivers, not a little here and there. It has been a ton. Whats a mommy to do? Crazy kid!!!

Little Turd

I have been searching for two days for the knob off of Jett's dressor. It is to the side door that you have to have a knob to or your cant open without a struggle. Well, tonight I could hear Jett playing with the door trap to our central vac upstairs. I went in the hall and he had his block Elmo sitting in front of him missing an arm and two legs. I told Chad and he took the bag out and went fishing to see if they made it down or if they were stuck in the tubes blocking it. While digging he found the toys, a marker lid, a medicine dropper, and the KNOB! There was probably more but Chad didn't want to keep digging (do you balme the guy?) Silly little kid. Now, I have duc-tape covering the opening and I will just remove it when I use it. Little nerd...gotta love him. Jett sulked for a little bit after he got in trouble!

NEW YEAR FUN!

I still cannot believe that it is 2010...growing up that seemed like only a year that movies talked about and not one that would actually come. I cant believe it. I am hopeful that this is going to be THE YEAR for Chad and I. Good things are coming (i.e. CHAD IS FREAKING GRADUATING) I am so happy that I get to spend this year with my boys and get to be a part of their life. They are so special to me and I love them. This year I am making it a point to be a better wife and mom...how might I do that?? I am working on my temper (gulp!), trying not to use swears as much (double gulp!) and I am going to basically give all my attention to my boys when I can. If I am at home I am going to try and give myself to them instead of myself. I want to do a fun activity with Jett everyday even if it is just coloring. I am going to try and watch and actually get into Chad's sports with him (gasp!) since they are such a big part of his life. I am going to make it a point to say I love you more often to my boys and not just say it, but show them. I am just going to try and be more committed to my family and by doing so I think all the other parts of my life I want to fix will fall into place. I love my little family and I am so blessed to have them. So, here is to New Years Resolutions and staying focused. Happy 2010!

Christmas Festivites

This Christmas kind of snuck up on us and we are sad it is already over. The week before Christmas we took Jett to his first movie and he loved it. He did great. He watched the entire thing without any problems. He thought it was neat to have his little movie meal and watch the show. It was a lot of fun. For Christmas Eve we went to Chad's parents first and did presents and ate Chili's to go. It was a lot of fun. Then, we went to my mom and dad's to play some games. Tyler wanted to play Manopoly and I hadn't played that game for the longest time. It was fun other than I lost miserably. We stayed there until pretty close to midnight!!! But, it did make for a great Christmas morning. We didn't get up until 10am and I even had to go wake up Jett. This year was so fun because Jett could actually open his gifts and he was so excited each time. He got a new chair because he loves sitting in chairs and watching tv. He got three new movies, Buzz Lightyear, a play computer, Lightning McQueen slippers (his fav movie these days), some puzzles, and some clothes. It was such a fun Christmas this year. We are really excited for the new year and to see what it has in store for us. Hope every one had a great Christmas and has a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Picture post below....

TWO THINGS...

WE WENT TO SESAME STREET LIVE!!! Chad, myself, Jett, Easton, Nikki, and Cheryl went to the best show ever. We got to sit on the very FIRST row on the floor and the characters came right up to the boys and played with them. They loved it. It was the best. We just recently went to Princesses on Ice and this was so much better. Well, maybe it was the seats but the boys were so much more into than the other. The pic above is me trying to get a good one of me and Jett without my puffy cheeks showing.

Both boys wanted to sit on Chad's lap. He loved it...even if he grumbled. Jett isn't too thrilled with his camera happy momma!

Baby Bear coming and saying hi to Jett and Easton. That is seriously how close we sat!

Tully saying hi...Jett wasn't a big fan of him for some reason

Abby Cadaby and Elmo!

Cute monkey proud of himself and his new potty!

Jett went potty for the first time on the big boy potty. I am bound to have this little man done before he is two. I have three months! I didn't want to embarass the poor thing and post a nakey pic, so I made him sit on it with is dipe on.

Better Late Than Never

We had a great halloween. It was so fun this year being able to take Jett around. We went to a tunk or treat with my sisters at my sisters ward. Then we took him around the neighborhood by Chad's mom and dad. Jett thought it was so great being able to take candy everytime he saw it. He loves KitKats so he grabbed one any time he saw one (despite my probing for him to grab the Butterfinger...mmm). I seriously already cant wait for next year. Jett will love it even more. Hope everyone had a great Halloween. There is a picture post below!!!
