March Madness

It is no surprise to anyone that I am behind on the blog.  Lately I have been at the point of not even wanting to blog because I am so behind.  These are feelings I had never felt before.  But then one day for story time I decided to pull down my blog books (I have published the first 3 years of my blog into books) and flipped through them with the kids.  They LOVED it!  I could see the little lights in their heads go on as they remembered the activities we did, places we went, and recognized themselves as babies.  It was seriously so fun and put the spark back into my desire to blog.  The hubs is out of town this week, so my goal is to get all caught up one post at a time.  So here goes!

March was awesome!  It flew by because we packed it full of so many things.

There was P's 3rd birthday of course

Then we welcomed a cousin home from his mission to Africa!

Em got a hold of the red dye and dyed not only herself, but the carpet, my clothes, and  my white shoes RED.

Potty Training in full force (but that deserves a post of it's own)

Took the kids to their first Drive-Inn Movie!  We saw The Lorax and we all had an awesome time!
Jeff and I also went back and watched the Hunger Games with sleeping babes there too

Discovered how Goldfish are made.  Sorry kids, that one is mine!

Em thought P's new clothes were for her too.  This t-shirt went all the way to her ankles.

Busy Season started to wind down and daddy made it home for Bedtime Stories

We attempted a late afternoon temple trip which turned into a  walking around the temple, visitors center and distribution center.  Note to self: the temple closes early on Saturdays.
I am positive there are still more random things that we did during March, but I need to get pictures of the hubby's camera.  But it really was a great March.  Not what my usually "March Madness" entails, but I survived despite watching only a few basketball games and not even making a bracket (I know, I am ashamed of myself).  Love my little family and the awesome madness they bring to my life!

What to pack . . .

So now that he really could come ANY DAY I figured it was probably time for me to pack my bag. I of course have one of those "What to bring" checklist, but I was wondering what your thoughts where. Is there anything you wish you had brought but didn't? Is there anything you would have died without if you hadn't brought it? I'm just so clueless! A few tips from you experienced mothers would be greatly appreciated!! I cant believe it is so close!!

Have you noticed?

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

No Use Crying Over Spilled Milk . . .

So being an emotional pregnant woman is definitely taking its tole on both me and Jeff (what a wonderful, patient, and understanding man he is). Saturday morning I was so excited because for the first time in weeks we actually had a morning together. I had planned to make us a delicious breakfast just like my dad always did for me. We had Eggs, Hashbrowns, and even Bacon; we were so excited. So I started cooking the bacon first, knowing it would take the longest. Then when I thought they were close to being done, Jeff started cooking the eggs and I threw on the hashbrowns. Well, needless to say, the eggs finished super fast and the others were not even close. And then to add more to my frustration the pan I was using for the hashbrowns was awful! Despite my many tablespoons of butter the entire thing was completely stuck! I switched pans in the middle to try to save them. In the meantime Jeff ate his eggs so they wouldn't get cold. I insisted on waiting so I could eat th...
