Full Load

Blaine and Eli like playing in the dryer... together. I can't imagine how cramped it must be in there, but that doesn't stop them.

This looks like a good place to read my book.

Blaine was laying down in there covered up

by laundry.

This is sad!!

I have one picture from the month of November! ONE!!! And it was taken with my phone. How did that happen?

On a happier note, I am FINISHED with school for the semester! A- in math and probably a B+ in English. Not too bad. I worked my booty off and had LOTS of help from Heavenly Father on the math.

Brothers

I was so excited when we found out that we were pregnant with a boy. Blaine and Eli are only 22 months apart. I have prayed and prayed that they would become good friends and enjoy spending time together. I love seeing them holding hands or giving each other kisses.

Happy Halloween!

We had a lot of fun this Halloween. My sister and her family were in town from Washington. It was great having them here. We all went trick-or-treating together. 6 kids and 9 adults. Blaine dressed up as Superman and Eli dressed up as Batman. I found their adorable capes at the Quilted Bear. When Blaine saw them he said "I want to be a flying boy!"

Eli tried on my brother's firefighter hat.

Every Super Hero has to have a Super Daddy!

Little Miss Hannah was Minnie Mouse.

Painting

I've been wanting to work on preschool stuff with Blaine. We did some painting the other day. Blaine had a lot of fun and got super messy.

Eli wasn't too thrilled that Blaine got paints
and he got stuck with crayons. Sorry Bud!

What a messy boy!

"Farm"tastic Fall Part 2

Here are more pictures from "Farm"tastic Fall at the American West Heritage Center in Cache Valley. It was a lot of fun. We were a bit early in the season and they didn't have all the activities going, but it was still fun.

"Farm"tastic Fall

We went to the American West Heritage Center in Cache Valley. They had some fun things for the boys to do. There was a hay stack maze, pirate ships made out of hay stacks, a hay jump and a slide. The boys had so much fun! Here's a video of the boys going down the slide. More pics and videos to come. Ü

Curling Up With A Good Book

Blaine LOVES to read books. When we read together, he usually brings me 10 books and I feel hoarse by the time we're done. I haven't gotten to read with Eli as much as I did with Blaine so I've worried that Eli won't enjoy reading. It made me smile today when I saw Eli sitting behind the couch looking at a book. I had to take some pictures!

HA HA HA!!!

This is a video of Blaine eating one of those sour war head candies. H.I.L.A.R.I.O.U.S. Ü

How cute is this boy?!

I sure love him! Ü

My Little Dare Devil

Blaine loves jumping off things and doing tricks. He even does summersaults off the swing. I just know we are going to have broken bones someday soon. But when I tell Blaine to be careful, he says "But Mom, I'm Superman!"

Project Potty Train: Success

After getting chastised by Blaine's pediatrician, at his 3 year old appointment, for not having Blaine potty trained, we decided to give it a real try. It took a little over a month, but I'm happy to say that my Blainer is finally potty trained. Can I just say how nice it is to not have both the boys in diapers?! Fantastic!!

We used a potty chart and once he got it filled

out we went to Chuck E Cheese.Blaine LOVES this place!

Dani Eli and Andrew

Eli enjoyed himself!
There was food. That's all he needs. Ü

Daddy even had fun. Ü

Good job, Blainer! We are so proud of you. You are such a big boy!!! Ü

I Love My Life Ü

The other night I was trying to get dinner done. We've been potty training Blaine. So I asked him like ten times in about five minutes if he needed to go. He kept saying no. Well, a few minutes later, Blaine pees all over the floor. I go over to clean it up. Then the water on the stove boils over. As I'm headed to clean that up, Eli pulls some glass bowls out of the cupboard causing them to shatter and cut his leg a little bit. As I'm cleaning up the glass, Blaine says "Mommy, I'm going to be with you forever!" I love my boys! Ü

Biker Baby

We went swimming at my mom's house today and ran through the sprinklers. My mom has a little tricycle that's like a motorcycle. Eli really likes it. He just sits there and pushes the buttons. Love my biker baby.

Toy Story Party

Today we had Blaine's 3rd birthday party. It was seriously so much fun! Blaine loves Toy Story so we decided to do a Toy Story themed party. Thanks to everyone that came to support Blaine and show them they love him. What a spoiled little guy! We waited a while to have the party so that my sister and her family could come. Hope you like all the pictures.
