Cannon's School ...

Cannon's Preschool acted out The Three Little Pigs. Cannon was the Big Bad Wolf. He was so darling! Wish I would have thought to take my video camera.

April Fools...

Our friends gave us the idea to have ice cream for breakfast on April Fools Day. Crew and Cannon were super excited, but Colton still wanted a bowl of cereal before going to school.

Colton's Tooth...

Colton was so excited to finally loose his top tooth. It was loose for quite some time but just wasn't ready to come out yet. He told me it was hurting him and he wanted me to pull it out. We worked on it for about 20 minutes and it finally popped out. We all laughed the rest of the night as he tried to say certain words. I love when kids have missing teeth on top. It is so cute!

This was us a dinner...We went to the Steakhouse at Little America. It is such a romantic restaurant with good food. We loved it.

Greg was so excited to go to Cabela's and get some boots for his

upcoming fishing trip to Alaska.

Spring Break...

This is how we spent our one week long spring break...Staying warm inside while looking out the window and finding cold weather and snow. CRAZY!

Really...

Really what is there to blog about when it is the 1st of April and we still are in the midst of winter. Sorry folks maybe one of these days I will feel like blogging again.

Breakfast Time...

Colton was so excited to wear shorts today to school...55 degrees feels like a summer day to him.

Colton always wants cereal in the morning for breakfast.

Cannon always want 2 waffles with lots of syrup.

Crew's diet consists of 1 waffle 3 times a day.  He is so picky and doesn't eat anything but waffles and crackers.  I am worried about him.

Haircut...

Cannon was brushing his teeth Wednesday night and saw scissors in the drawer by the toothbrushes.  He came running out of the bathroom and said, "look Mom"  pointing to the middle of his head.  I said what did you do?  He said I cut my hair because it was bugging me.  I said in a really stern voice, "Don't ever do that again, now we are going to have to shave your head."  He started screaming in a high pitch shrill voice and was freaking out.  He was saying all sorts of weird stuff like the police were going to come get him and that he didn't want to be bald.  He gets really upset when he thinks he is in trouble. I sat him on my lap and tried to calm him down.  I told him I wasn't mad at him and that we just had to cut his hair short so it would blend in.  He thought I was going to get a razor out and shave his head.  He woke up Thursday morning still so upset at himself that he had cut his hair.  If you look closely you can see the one snip he took in the middle of his head, right down to the scalp.  I didn't really buzz his head because we have family pictures in 2 weeks, but when it is spiked up in the front you can't really see the part that he cut.

Spending Time Outside Finally...

Not a good picture at all...This is where you can find Colton and Cannon when it is warm outside.  They love playing basketball!

Enjoying the scenery...

Cannon loves to ride his bike!

Colton loves to go to our neighbor's house after school and get a little treat.  She is so sweet and loves when the kids in the neighborhood come and visit her!

We actually got to walk down to the bus stop and wait for Colton to get off the bus from school.

Crew is absolutely loving the outdoors.  He stands by our front door and whines all day to go outside.  Our backyard still has quite a bit of snow on the ground, but I have a feeling Crew will spend a lot of time out there this summer.

Picture for the week...

I did not do well at taking pictures this week.  I think I was in mourning trying to get back into the swing of everyday life post vacation.  Colton and Cannon have their own rooms, but I don't remember the last time they slept in their own rooms.  This is how I found them one night after they had fallen asleep.  So Sweet!

More Disneyland Pictures...

Greg Singing...

We were walking by a Quartet singing at California Adventure and Greg sang a couple notes as he was walking by.  We stopped to watch the rest of the song and as soon as they were done singing that song, they asked Greg to join them singing "My Girl".  Here is a short clip...

Disneyland...

We just got back from an amazing trip to Disneyland.  The kids absolutely loved it and were so brave.  They went on all the rides and a few of their favorites were Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, Thunder Mountain, and Tower of Terror.  Leading up to the trip, Colton and Cannon said they were not going to go on any of the big rides.  We beg and pleaded and during the drive to California they were still saying they wouldn't go on any of the "big" rides.  Sunday night we went into Disneyland for a few hours and the boys cried and pleaded with us not to have to go on any of the rides.  We took it easy this night and went on some of the boys old favorites.  Monday morning was a new day and the boys decided they wanted to try everything and much to our surprise they loved them all.  We left Crew at home, so us four were able to go from ride to ride and do the same thing.  It was a great trip.  We were also able to hit some of our favorite restaurants...PF Chang, Cheesecake Factory, In & Out, California Pizza Kitchen, The Claim Jumper, etc.  This trip wouldn't have been possible without our friends sharing their timeshare condo with us...Thanks Ryan and Amber, we had a great time!!!!

Life is Hard Being A Baby...

Sunday...

Sunday Crew stayed home from church sick.  I was hanging out in my bed reading my camera instruction book and trying to take pictures on manual mode.  I was the only one home and Crew was napping and I didn't want to get out of my warm bed, so these were my practice shots.  If anyone wants to get together and teach me or learn together, please call me.  I need HELP!

Mommy's Boy...

Friday when I took Crew to the doctor for his well child check up, he had to get a few immunization shots.  That night he had a fever all night and the Tylenol/Ibuprofen were not helping it drop.  He was up all through the night.  Saturday he wanted nothing to do with anyone but me.  He wanted me to hold him all day.  He always is fine going to daddy, but not this day.  I enjoyed the cuddling, just not the whining!  On top of not feeling good from his shots he is getting a ton of teeth all at the same time and he also has some sort of cold virus.

His stats from his appointment...

Weight 23 lbs

Height 32 1/2 inches

Costco Trip...

Friday we decided that we wanted to drive down to the big (little) city of  P... and open a Costco account.  We love Costco.  There are just certain things at Costco that are so much better than Sams Club.  The boys were so good on the drive down and Greg and I were actually able to have some adult conversation.  There are also a couple restaurants in P... that we don't have that we like to eat at.  So, we decided that this will be a fun little trip we can take once a month to go shopping and out to eat.   We ate at Buddy's, an Italian restaurant and bought a lot of salt for our water softener.  We forgot our cooler, so that was the extent of our shopping trip.

Flowers...

A friend brought me these gorgeous flowers.  Every time I look at these spring colored flowers, it brightens my day.  I am so thankful for good friends!

When Mom Is Away...

Wednesday night this is what I came home to find.  All the boys were asleep and the T.V. was blaring with the Laker basketball game.  I am grateful Greg loves to spend time with his boys.

The Mischief Maker...

He is thinking, "What can I get into next?"

Crew is definitely a mischief maker.  He is learning more everyday and learning how to get into more stuff everyday.  Today he learned how to open the cabinet that the garbage can is in.  He was taking garbage out of the trash all day and carrying it all over the house.  He learned how to open Greg's desk drawer and was going in the office all day and taking whatever he could reach out of the drawer.  He got into all of my bathroom drawers and cabinets today and half of the day he would carry around my lotion and nail polish and leave it all over the house.  He also wore my headband half the day.  If it wasn't around his head it was around his neck.  Wow, he is going to keep me on my toes.  But, he sure is cute and easy to love. 

Colton's Reading...

Colton is turning into a pretty good reader.  He is suppose to read everyday for school.  Right now, he is reading the book series Horrible Harry.

The Boys...

Crew is always wanting to do what the big boys are doing.  We pulled out Cannon's old Game Boy and Crew loves to carry it around with it turned on, pretending to play.
