The Last Two Weeks.

I know I haven't written in a while, but I have been a little sick for the past couple weeks.  ( I think you all know what that means, do I really have to say it?)

Anyway Tyler and I did get the chance to take a vacation all by ourselves, to our favorite place.  It was super fun, it would have been even more super fun if I hadn't been sick the entire time, oh well.  We still had a great time, and we went down to the San Diego temple which was really fun also.

Nothing else to report around here; everyone is just doing what they do best.   Gem is playing Lego Batman on the Wii, basically that is all she ever does.  June is crawling all over things, she is practicing crawling on top of things, and she loves to crawl onto the bottom step of the stairs and then whine until I come and get her.   Levi is still getting into things, for example mascara.



Easter Fun

Easter morning the kids got tons of big cardboard blocks from the Easter bunny. On a side note the Easter bunny spent the better part of an hour the night before putting them together. But I think everyone had fun playing with them.

Levi is getting pretty adept at saying people's names. He has a repertoire of mama, dada, juju, gege, kiki (that's my sister Kim), caca (that is my brother-in-law Tucker), tyty (my brother Tyler), and papa (for grandpa). I even heard him say Levi today. Basically if you ask him to say something he will repeat back to you the first sound of that word.

After Levi's turn Gem wanted a turn.

Easter Eggs

I have such mixed feelings about decorating Easter eggs. You always think it is going to turn out to be fun and the eggs are all going to be adorable. You would think from past experience that I would remember how lame it always ends up being. No matter how nice you decorate an egg, it still just looks like an egg that got colored. Levi was also mad the entire time because I didn't let him eat the coloring, or ferociously stir the eggs, or much of anything. Though his dad did let him slam a hard-boiled egg into a chair. At least Gem had fun. But don't worry by next year I will forget all of this and I will think to myself how much fun it will be to color eggs.
