Finally an update

I have a ton of updates read them and enjoy them!!!!
So for Christmas we went to AZ and worked and hung out with family. It was so great to be there. I have missed everyone so much. We are back to our regular schedule now. Ethen is loving school and Toby is loving the Snow. His favorite words are snow, no, color, and OK. He has picked up so many words it is so crazy. So this picture is of my hunk after his first choir practice. As you can tell he didn't really want his picture taken.

All I can do is laugh when I see this picture... Poor kid!!

Yes another Hair Cut... Shave

I know I know.... Toby has beautiful hair.... blah blah blah. Well you try trimming it every week. He is 18 months, he wont even sit still for Elmo. Truthfully I was just going to cut his hair so that it would have little spikes. So I did and it was really cute. Then I wanted to blend it all to make it look good. SO being the professional hair clipper that I am I got the hair shaver clipper things and started.... WOW WAY TO SHORT... STOP!!! PLEASE SOME ONE REWIND THIS DAMN THING. Unfortunately you can't cut hair long and I was screwed. Thankfully he looks cute no matter what. I am sure that when you look at these pictures you will be shocked just like I was. But if you stare long enough it is way way cute!!!

So this is before....

And now after with marker on face and all.

Oh yes... the days when it was fun to color on our hands

cute little girlfriend!

Oh how we love the snow!

New Job

So a few months ago I got this yellow flier on my door... It was about a position that needed to be filled for this lady that runs a daycare. Anyway, she runs it out of here home in the basement. I checked it out a few months back and fell in love with her and the kids that she watches. Can you say HIRED!! I started last week. I decided to do it because I can take Toby and still be the wonderful mother that I am. I also get breakfast, snacks, lunch, and a diaper a day!!! Plus I bring in a little extra money each month. It is such a huge blessing to have this job!!! I have been so depressed being away from my family and friends and my sweet Candice. It is nice to be able to meet people and get out of the house!!!

Our Neighbors the Johnson's

So we have a cute couple across the street from us. Kathy and Paul Johnson. They are so great. They also have alittle boy about 8 months old. I just love Kathy. We go on walks together everyday and switch babysitting. It is so nice to have a girlfriend!!

Crafts

Last night I got to go to enrichment. We made these picture blocks. It was so nice to get to know some of the sisters. We have such a great ward. I made one for you Anna I am going to try and get it in the mail soon!! When I came home last night the house was spotless and the dishes were done. Dinner was made and The Bud was happy as every. Ethen always has Toby clean with him. So when he did the dishes, he rolled up Toby's jeans and sat him on the edge of the sink with a scrub brush in his hands. I really wish I had a picture of it!!!! I am so grateful for Ethen he helps me out so much!!!!

Mom here are the flowers that you bought me. I panted them and they are already to be hung up!! Thanks for getting them for me. It was a fun little project. Love you and miss you!!!!

Our Little Home

I know that you have all been dying to see my John Deere kitchen. I am so in love it. It's not fully decorated the way that I would like, but here is it!!!

This is Toby's play area. Candice thanks for the basketball hoop. I think Ethen plays with is more than any one else.

Here is the part of the house that has been neglected. It hurts just looking at it. Hopefully we will get some time to do some good work on it this weekend!!

ouch... that's really bad!!
