Guilty

It started out innocently.
Hayes went down for a nap so I got online to check to see if my last grade had posted. Which it finally had. Then I decided to check my e-mail.
It all goes downhill from there. Blogging is just dangerous.
I have toys everywhere that need to be picked up, a online class I need to get the first assignments done before I have this baby, and a baby blanket to bind. (I could add and bathrooms to clean but we'll just avoid that.) Oh yes and dinner to make. But instead I spend an hour looking at people's blogs and finding new ones to spend even more time looking at next time I get on. I love looking at everyone's pictures and hearing what they are up to! I'd like to make an excuse that it was my "social event" of the day but I was outside talking to my neighbors for half the day. Does anyone else have this problem? Getting online to do one quick thing and spending an hour doing something completely different. I guess at least I'll admit it, that's the first step to recovery right?

Last Night

Last night we spent the evening outside. Bracken mowed the lawn and Hayes dug in the dirt. I on the other hand, enjoyed sitting on the porch watching them, enjoying the weather, and using my huge belly as an excuse to do absolutly nothing. :)


(I'll spare you the picture of that though.)

Random Pictures from this Month


This was taken the beginning of April on one of the random warm days in between the snow. He loves being outside and as you can tell he doesn't mind the taste of dirt either! Last weekend we went down to Provo for my cousin, Aimee's wedding shower. We got to see a lot of family which was awesome and Hayes got to see all his cousins! He think he's such a hot shot when he's with Xander.



Hayes loves "helping" me cook. We made Chicken Squares for dinner and we was brushing the butter on top before we put them in the oven. I told him to take out his Binky and smile, this is the picture I got. This was one of the mishaps during finals week where I probably wasn't as good as a mother as I should have been. I was studying in the kitchen and I could hear him, I thought he was in his room playing with his toys. It was too quiet for awhile...my mom has taught me when boys are quiet it's usually trouble...so I went down the hall and he was in my room putting on my makeup! Mascara and gold eye shadow everywhere!! I couldn't get a very good picture since he was so mad that I took it away but you can get the gist. Black & Gold eyes!

Countdown!

6 days until I'm done with spring semester,
3 weeks until the baby is due, and
1 hour until naptime!

I'm so ready for the first thing to be over, hope I'm ready for the 2nd to come and wish Hayes was ready for the third!

Awkward Doorstep Scene in Action

Heather had prom this weekend. I just had to share the picture that was caught on the doorstep. I was teasing her that it'd be her first kiss but unfortunately EJ made sure that didn't happen. (or maybe fortunately in my dad's eyes!)


I'm so glad that EJ was young enough when I was dating to be asleep when I got home from dates!

Isn't she GORGEOUS!!

Oil Painting of Hayes




Dixon does a "half hour painting" everyday. When we were down in Cedar he took a quick picture of Hayes and he was nice enough to do a half hour painting of Hayes for me!

Q. where were you 10 years ago?

10 years ago I was twelve! I remember I was so excited to get into YW and out of primary. I was on the swim team and we had practice during the summer at 9 and then sometimes I would convince my mom to take me to Zuka Juice for a smoothie after practice and I loved it! Nothing better then being a pool in the summer and a cold smoothie to top it off!
