  • Finally, Some Help!

    Stan is back, which means I'm not sitting around wondering what to do at night, which translates to....no updates on the site....sorry folks, its been awhile.  Stan made it home a couple of days before Halloween and has a month of vacation before starting his next rotation.  Oh the joys of having a live-in spouse again!!!!


    I have lots of pictures, so I'll limit myself to just a few words.


    Wolf Lodge Nov. 7-11


    We had such beautiful weather so we were out playing most of the time, taking advantage of some remarkably warm fall/winterish weather.

    This is how we roll these days

    I am so blessed to be a mother to these 3 boys!!!  Playing outside with them is fun, but grocery shopping...not so fun!

    One day we will figure out how to get active toddlers to smile for the camera, it just hasn't happened yet.  On the other hand getting them to smile while eating is quite easy, especially if you enjoy a spaghetti dinner the way Logan does.

    We went to the Dinosaur Park in Ogden, UT


    They have done a great job creating the dinosaurs and making them seem so lifelike...Garrett loved them, Logan was slightly apprehensive, and Eli slept the afternoon away in the stroller.

    Garrett is super in to Dinosaurs right now...every morning he wakes up and tries to recreate a scene from the classic movie Land Before Time.


    Here is our recent attempt at getting a good picture of all of the children...seems like a joke these days.  I can hardly get Garrett to sit still for a picture and he's supposed to be the easier one!


    Here are the best ones that we were able to come up with

    Below is the one picture that Garrett actually had a "real" smile for us

    I've even tried bribing Garrett at this point, but smiling for a picture is not what he has in mind...oh well, one day (fingers crossed)
