Random thoughts Wednesday

So I'm stealing Emily's idea and doing random thoughts today. Since my life is a little Topsy-turvy that is kind of how things are in my head.

Why is it that the mornings you can't sleep in, your kids do sleep in? And why when you can sleep in they are up at the crack of dawn?

40 little kids in one space is just way to many.

Why do you have to have Parent Teacher conferences with Kindergartners when you are in their class at least once a month anyway?

Why is it that when you have way to much to do you always seem to get it done, but when you don't have very much to do you can never get it done?

Can you ever really have enough shoes?

Okay... that is probably enough randomness for one day.

Have great Wednesday!

We have put Ethan to work!

Last night Ethan decided that he was a big boy and could help us out with some of our work.
I guess the mouse tasted really good. :)

He was telling us that he needed some time alone to get all of the work done.

He hands are a little small to type, so he has to do the chicken peck.



He also had a couple of memos to write and some papers to fill out! :)
Isn't he a cute kid!

My Best Friend!

I think that a lot of times in our lives we take for granted the things that are most important to us. I for one am very guilty of just assuming that my best friend knows how grateful I am for him. When in all actuality I really do need to express it more. I have been blessed with an amazing eternal companion. He is the love of my life, my best friend, and one of my heroes. I know that I don't tell him nearly enough how grateful I am for who he is. He is loving and gentle, ambitious and truly amazing. I watch him stretch himself with new things and am awed by how he can put himself out there all the time. In the past few months he has tried so many new things and been success for at them. I on the other hand am very afraid to stretch my limits and as a result never really try anything new. He is a example of perseverance to me on a very regular basis. Ryan, I love you very much and thank Heavenly Father daily for allowing me to have you as my best friend.
p.s. Babe, I almost made it through this without crying. :)

Fun little post.

Okay I so I stole this off of Jenny's blog. (Thanks Jenny for the cute idea.)

Go you your pictures folder, then go to your 4th folder and the take the 4th pictures. Then give a little description of what it is.




Allie at Temple Square. Daddy asked her to smell the flower!
Okay now it is your turn. It's kind of fun to see what you have in your files.

Family Pictures at Draper Park

On Friday we decided to go enjoy the sunshine and take the kids to the park to do some family pictures. He is what we ended up with.







Ethan has just started sitting up on his own. Ryan thinks this caption should be:
"What are you looking at?"

Don't they look so cute. Sheldon has decided that now he has to play this super "Joe Cool" thing every time he sees a camera

Look Lisa it is actually a picture of me! Allie was crying so I picked her up to give her a love and this is the face she pulled when Daddy said smile. Even with tears she still smiles for the camera.


My cute boys.

All in all I think we got some cute pictures... now I just have to decide which ones to print. :)

This is what happens when your kids are quiet

So when I was a teenager and young adult, before I had my own kids I used to laugh when parents said that their kids were being to quiet. I always thought if they are quiet aren't they being good and not killing each other. I soon learned that this is the kind of things that happens when kids get quiet.

What year do you belong in?

I saw this on one of my friends blogs and thought it was cute. Try it out.



You Belong in 1958




You're fun loving, romantic, and more than a little innocent. See you at the drive in!
