Safety first

So Ethan found these glasses and just loves them, he has been wearing them everywhere.
He thinks they are sunglasses, so he wanted to go outside, then Erik was wearing a hat and of course Ethan had to wear a hat, what makes me mad is he will Never wear one when it is my idea! (I just was talking to my sister about sending her all Eth's hats because he wont wear them... Well I will just have to see if this hat stays on long.)
So Dad and Eth when to go build us a garden outside, good thing Ethan has his safety goggles on. You never know when something might jump up into his eye!!

Home again

Well we made it home, we loved our little vacation it was very well needed. Their house just made me sooo excited to one day have a house of my own. It would be the best perk if it was remotely like theirs.

So, yesterday I saved 542 dollars, I went shopping and the stuff I got if it was not on a huge sale would have costed me $542.00. But guess how much I spent.. come on guess.... only 61.72$, I know 60 is still allot for me to, but I saved us SOOOO much! I went to OshKosh and got the kids a bunch of stuff. Like a coat for Sadie and a ton of shirts for Eth. They were in need of some good clothes. So that is my good find so far this year.

Now I am going to brag about my niece, she is 12 and beautiful, and a little cowgirl. I found this picture online to buy of her, but she just ended her year of being the princess of the Dodge National Circuit Finals Rodeo AKA DNCFR or just Pro Rodeo, she is a little sweet heart and I am just so proud to be her aunt. (She is the one in the Green, getting her crown)

Happy Easter

So not the best pictures but, that is all I can do with this laptop. They looked really cute today! I had to put the one of Sadie on her side because she is almost getting the rolling over thing down.

We all Love when Daddy's home!

We are so happy to have dad back! He had a hard week of 9 finals but he worked hard, late nights, and early mornings, and it paid off. He did another great semester. Two down and to many to go...Way To Go Dad!! Now we get to enjoy seeing him for 2 weeks! So it is so nice that we have our little resort home here to chill in for a week! We will probably head down to the cost the next week, we will just have to see if we can give in to the gas prices! I will put a picture of Erik on here just as soon as he actually walks through the door!

Change...

I am just sick of my blog look, I am sure it will change again very soon!

So I am here house sitting and loving it, Sadie is asleep in the other room and Ethan is in heaven playing with all of the toys! And I am in the craft room on their supper sweet mac changing things around! Last night I watched a good movie, Erik was studying and Eth was just going crazy in toy land. Anyways I watched August Rush WAY good, a few swearing parts but other then that GREAT! If anyone has any good movies they suggest let me know. I love a good movie!

House sitting!

Ok, I cant hold in my excitement any more, we got asked to house sit my friends house while they are gone for spring break and let me just tell you, I AM SOOOO EXCITED!! I know she is reading this and just laughing but there are so many reasons why I am so excited. Let you JUST tell you 10 of them...

2nd- I love my In-laws upstairs but they are up all night and I can hear them walking around, and the DOG RUNNING through the house.
3rd- I can put Sadie in a crib and not worry that she is to ICE SICKLE, and not get up so much to make sure Ethan has BLANKETS on him.
4th- I can go on a WALK and not get hit by a CAR or fall of a CLIFF.
5th- Its Eriks Spring break and if were here, Everyone has SOMETHING for him to do!
6th- This is just my DREAM HOUSE!! (don't worry I will repent latter!)
7th- There is a huge room just for ETHAN!

Don't get my wrong I am sooo greatful for where I live and I do love it! I am just excited for a big change for a few days!! Thanks for asking us~ and who know your Spring Cleaning Extravaganza just might be done when you get back, ok, ok, your right, its not going to happen ;) But the truth is there isn't anything to clean, She always has a very clean house!

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Happy Green day!! Ethan woke up to a note on the fridge from his Leprecon Eli and a pot of balls, and a note to Erik from me. just so I could get a kiss!

Ethan made a Good Luck Card to Daddy for his finals week this week!! WE LOVE you and know you will do Great!

4 months

Sadie is another month older!! I cant believe it, I will take pictures soon my camera broke well it takes pictures but they are all black so hopefully I can fix it. I hate not having a camera I feel like I am missing so much when I cant snap a picture. Here is some I took before the camera crashed.

She is laughing a ton, and is full of smiles and coo's! Not rolling over yet, unless on the couch where I don't want her to. She is our little princess here!

Ethan words

Ethan says the cutest things he is talking so much, here are a few things I have written down lately~

Ethan: what ok mean??
Mom: ummm, it means like alright,
Ethan: Oh OK

Ethan: Mom, where are's you?
Mom: In here honey
Ethan: Ok honey I love you!

Mom: You just wiped your buggys on me.
Ethan: Forgive me? (with a really cute face)
Mom: What, did you say Forgive me?
Ethan: Yea, Forgive me?

-How chic-key wow did he do that?
-I cannot believe it.
-That sound like a good idea? (He says this allot!)

He says Nephibite instead of Nephite, And now he sings the whole ABC's and counts to 15 and say's he's 2 old! He makes me laugh everyday, I wish I would write down all the funny stuff . He is one smart cookie. He is like his dad, loves to talk and it is getting him smarter and smarter!

Quote for the week

"Marriage is sanctified when it is cherished
and honored in holiness.That union is not
merely between husband and wife; it embraces
a partnership with God (see Matt. 19:6)."

Russell M. Nelson

Oh the sigh of relief

Erik took this pic of me today after I gave a 15 min. talk in church, and oh I feel so good to have that done! I was a little shaky at first but I warmed up. I don't know if any of you who were at our seminary graduation and remember me reading a letter that I received from my mysteries friend. (who I am thankful for) I used that in this talk. My talk was about how Heavenly Father shows his love for us. It was fun to do because I feel His love for me daily, so I had some good examples like the last post and feeling the spirit tell me when to get out of somewhere. But all and all I think it went ok, and am glad I am done! And am free from speaking for a very long time, hopefully!

I am still shaking!!!

Today I had the scariest things happen to me. I thought I would go and buy something new to wear to church because I have to talk in sacrament, so I headed to some stores. I got to the second one and I just had a weired feeling because I saw this guy keep popping up wherever I was, I tried to shrug it off, until I was looking at some necklaces and he was right there when I looked up acting like he was looking at some to. I wanted to say "Are you following me." but I didn't. So I got creeped out and couldn't find anything anyways so left.

So I was driving and remembered that there was a store I wanted to go to but missed the turn and so got stuck waiting for traffic and thought in my head if that guy was following me well he just caught up, but I thought I was just being funny, so I go to this other store and look around found something cute so I went back to the kids cloths and turn the corner and there he was, He gave me a look and I think I turned white, I started shaking I am sure, and jumped on the phone and told Erik that I think I am being followed. He said to go tell the people at the front to watch me leave, but there was a ton of people there so I looked to see if he is watching us and he was so I put the dress back and moved over by the doors and as soon as he turned his back I ran out and got into the car locked the doors and drove away.

I called Erik back and told him I didn't want to drive home because if he did follow me then I didn't want him to know where we lived. So I drove towards another store with my eyes locked on my review mirror, when I just about pulled into the next store I looked back and there was a younger guy in the drivers seat and an older guy, the guy I thought was stoking me right behind him like he had just jumped in the car and they finally found me, the were riding my butt, my whole body started shacking bad, and I call Erik almost in tears telling him that this guy is right behind me. He said just come strait here, (he was at school studying) he would have the security guard there with me so if they followed me in here they would take care of him.
But lucky for me, the car passed and they were Chinese just like the man at the stores but luckily not the same one, just someone in hurry and they had to be behind me and almost give me a heart attach. So that was my scary day.. I still am a little shaky just thinking about how scary that was.
