well, sort of...she came to a nearby team with her beloved Utah Flash and so we were able to meet up with her for dinner and she got us some great seats for the game. It was so much fun to see her and catch up with her and the kids absolutely loved her. Of course i wouldn't have expected anything less. To this day, they keep saying "hey lady" (what Shauri said to Eliza) and they think it is so funny. Best part of the game for the kids was that the music almost never stops and so they got a lot of good dancing in. Thanks, Shaurs!

Spinster Shauri Came to Visit

Field Trip to the Farm
Kolby's preschool was learning about farm animals and so we were able to go on a field trip to the local community college's farm. The kids love seeing the animals up close and personal, but weren't quite brave enough to touch any of them yet. No problems here with that...the fewer the germs, the better.
Playtime while Kolby is at Preschool
When Kolby goes to school 2 days a week, Eliza really loves the alone time she gets with me and more importantly with all the toys. Even though Carson is around, he is not competing for the toys (at least not yet) and she gets to be the queen! These photos are funny of Eliza and show her little personality, quite a bit. I especially love that she has to dress up in her princess dress just to play with her brother's Hot Wheels.
Carson is 6 Months Old
Wow! Time really does fly! My sweet little baby boy is already 6 months old. That does mean that in a big way, life is beginning to get a lot easier...he is growing out of his reflux, which means he is sleeping a lot better and is happier because he isn't in pain all the time. He has also achieved his big milestone of sitting up. I must say that I love this stage because they can sit up and be a little self-entertaining when surrounded by toys. He is so excited to be a "big boy" and really loves "playing" in the toy room with Kolby and Eliza. He weighed in at 17 lbs 15 ozs and was 27 in long at his 6 month checkup...not too shabby for a reflux baby! Here are some photos of our sweet little boy.
T-Ball: It's Official
Kolby is in love with baseball! And now he is finally old enough to be on the parks & rec league and play t-ball. He feels so special and loves going to practice every Monday night and to games on Saturday. His team is the Rangers and he and Eliza think they are the Power Rangers. So at his games, Eliza yells out, "Go Power Rangers." It's very cute. When he first got his uniform, he wanted to wear it everyday, everywhere. Kind of like those camo rain boots i blogged about before. Now he is to the point where he treats his uniform with respect and saves it for game day. He is doing great. He usually plays first base, which means he just stands there at first base and pretends that he is going to catch the ball when and if someone throws it to him. If he's not at first base then he is fielding somewhere...usually running to the balls in the outfield. He is so funny because he thinks his job is done when he runs and puts the ball in his glove. He runs so fast to retrieve it and then just turns around and starts walking back to the infield, very proud of himself, usually ignoring everyone yelling at him to throw the ball in. It's pretty funny. Of course his specialty is offense. Lots of homeruns for this kid, if they were even allowed in this league. He definitely knows how to throw his weight into his swing. We have so much fun watching him because he loves it so much. And the sports with our kids era of our lives has just begun...
This is What Happens...
Pressure Pressure Pressure!
So, I am feeling the pressure once again to update my blog. I know that I am probably the world's WORST blogger, but hey...I am trying. So tonight will be a blog of photos of what we have been up to over the past several weeks. Easter was so much fun. We went to Grandma and Grandpa's house and spent time with cousins and the kids had a blast. Grandma always does such a great job planning things for them to do. While there, we saw the movie "Horton Hears a Who" and when we got back home we realized we had a "who" of our very own!
