Little Miss Trouble

Sarah has bee5n such a little stinker lately and a7ll the typos are becusea0 0.s02he2 is insist]ing 6on sitting at the computer with me. Anyways, I just caught her putting chalk in the fan (thankfully it was not turned on at this moment). So I told her to get the chalk back out of the fan. She was doing pretty well and managed to get 3 pieces out so I walked away for a couple seconds while she worked on the last 2 pieces and all of a sudden I heard her coloring with the chalk on the wall. Well last night she was yelled at and put in timeout for putting crackers in the fan and a couple days ago it was crayons. Yesterday while I was helping Isaac in the bathroom I came back to the living room to find her like this.

Let me remind you everything was in its correct place when I left her. And she is not wearing a shirt because she REFUSED to put in on after lunch (I took it off for spaghetti).

She is such and girl and if she gets yelled at she instantly cries and let me tell you those tears are big crocodile tears.

She is not always a trouble maker and since we have had lots of outside time I took a couple pictures of Sarah and Isaac playing so well together.

She has been so much fun, but she is keeping me busy!

My funny little girl

Sarah is so funny when she is enjoying her food. She moans as she eats.

Memorial Day

Over Memorial Day we took a quick trip down to SLC to look at some work opportunities for Gary and got to enjoy some family time as well. Isaac was able to go to a gymnastics class with Miles and he loved it! Sarah wanted to go to but she will have to wait till next time. Poor Sarah dislocated her radial head while playing with Grandpa. I knew something was wrong with her arm when she wouldn't use it. Finally my cousin told us about Nursemaids elbow and sure enough that was the problem. Luckily Gary was able to put in back in place and she was just fine the next morning!
We also made a nice visit to see my Grandma for her 89th birthday!

Another year completed

Well they had a little celebration for the end of the year with Isaac's preschool. It was at a nearby park and it was really nice. Teacher Bridget had lots of activities for the kids to rotate to and then all the kids were given a little certificate.

Each child had to color a square of cement. Isaac drew a rocket going to the sun with his whole name of course.

Then we had a nature walk and each child was able to paint a stained glass ornament.

This is Isaac with his friends Devyn and Diego. That was quite the trio of boys! Way to go Isaac - Mommy and Daddy are so pround of you!

Phoenix

Back in May Gary had a conference in Phoenix and so we decided to make it a family vacation as well. We were able to stay with Gary's brother, Mike and his family. We had a lot of fun and had lots of BBQ's, rockband night and of course time spent in the pool.

We did get to have an adult only kayaking trip down the Salt River which was a blast. Thanks Mike and Tara for setting that all up!

Gary and I took the kids to the zoo one day and had fun walking around. We even were able to do the train ride this trip.

Isaac's Sayings

So last night we rented Gnomeo and Juliet and enjoyed it as a family. There was one part where a gnome hides in a ladies bra and Isaac shouts out, "That's a great hiding place, in the mommy cups!"
Gary and I laughed so hard. He is so funny some times.

I know I need to do some catch up on the blog and I promise it will be coming soon. Just trying to get the house sold and start up a website (which is taking way more time than I would like to admit)

Happy Birthday Sarah!!!

My Birthday Girl in the cutest outfit from Laurie! This is what her hair looks like right after I do it!

I can't believe my baby girl is now 2. She has grown so much this past year and is so much fun. She has a very strong personality which will be great for her one day - little trying for me right now. We are finally sleeping through the night which makes her so much happier during the day. She absolutely LOVES her brother. She follows him all around the house and if Isaac is doing something she wants to do it to. When asked, "What is your name?" Her response - I Kick (for Isaac). She loves to dance, color (still undecided on right or left hand), must feed herself in a chair, loves Mickey Mouse ( Mic Mou) and loves to play outside. She loves books and is really good at puzzles. I made her a Mickey Mouse cake and it was fun watching her eat the whole thing with a fork - and she did really well! We love you baby girl!
