Busy Busy Busy

This week was crazy busy. But we did have the opportunity to spend time with friends and family, so that was nice. I am glad that, for now, the craziness is over. JJ loves to read, and this week his favorite book is Are You My Mother? One day he asked where's the daddy. I think it's petty cool that he thinks about these things. JJ never ceases to amaze me. JJ is really good at recognizing letters, he loves to color, as he colors he will say a G mom, or whatever letter he happens to draw (on accident). I think it's way cute, and I'm so proud of him. I can't forget little Eva, she's so cute and smiley. I love having a baby girl!!!

Another week gone by


My how time flies!!! This week the kids and I went to the zoo, it was another beautiful day. Friday night Spencer and I went to the movies. We went and saw the Dark Knight, wow, another good Batman movie. I really like the latest actor that plays batman, and boy, the Joker was so creepy. It's time to start thinking about Halloween costumes, which prompted me to get out the matching Halloween jammies I bought last year. I couldn't help but take a picture of the cuties. This afternoon we went to a family reunion for Spencer's Mom's family. It's fun to see everyone now and then. The scary thing is that I'm starting to feel old. Spencer's cousin Tyler will be turning 21 soon, which isn't that big of a deal, unless you consider that I've known Tyler since he was 11 years old. I have a nephew that is 17 years old, he thinks I'm ancient. It's totally crazy that I'm already feeling this way, and I haven't reached my 30s yet. I guess that's something to look forward to. :)

Useful Info

If you haven't heard, the geniuses at google have another amazing service. Forget 411 if you need info just call 800goog411, it's a free service (your are charged for the air time), and it will connect you. This morning I wanted to schedule to have pictures taken of Eva in her blessing dress, so I called goog and had them connect me to Kiddie Kandids. When I couldn't get into the studio at a particular time I told them I would try another one. The offered to give me the number, but I said that's ok. I'm thinking why do I need to find a piece of paper and a pen to write down a number when goog will connect me. I love this service- I use it at least once a week, and I just want to spread the word.
By the way if you'd like to check out the Kiddie Kandids go to:

Ahh Fall!!!

The weather has been delightful this week. We have taken advantage of the cooler weather, the kids and I went on a walk everyday. One day we went to Bywater Park. JJ wanted to play baseball, but we didn't have the equipment, will that stop him? NO! I was the pitcher and JJ was the batter, and when he hit the imaginary ball we both ran all the bases. I love to see JJ's imagination in action. Eva loves to be outside too, if she's a little fussy, taking her outside can be like pushing a reset button. Friday night all of us went to the State Fair. It was nice to have some family time, Spencer was really busy this week and didn't have a lot of time at home. Tuesday he went to Chicago and was back at 10:00 pm on Wednesday- how about a quick trip! Well it's late, so I'll leave it at that. Have a great week!

Fun Times

I've kind of made Sundays my day to post a blog. It's been good for me, because I get my photos downloaded weekly, but more importantly I reflect on events of the week. We had a lot of fun this week. We went to the Children's Museum, Park City, and we went to the IMAX 3D Space Station. We also had fun watching the Utes win another game, Go UTES!!! JJ has been doing well with potty training, he's even been telling us that he needs to us the potty, there have been accidents, but that is to be expected. Little Eva is not so little, she had her two month check up this week, and she's in the 75th percentile in weight and height. She now weighs 12 pounds 4 ounces. Eva's a good little girl, except she's a night owl, she usually doesn't go to bed until midnight- it's killing me. The picture I posted is of Spencer and JJ on the Alpine Slide, the weather was beautiful, we couldn't have picked a better day to go to Park City.
