Wyatt moment

I have to share because even though at the time I was about in tears it makes me laugh now. Monday is my Costco day with Wyatt and London. It is one of the more exhausting things I do in my life so I try and get all pumped up for the event by listening to loud music and eating a heavy dose of sugar before we go. Wyatt usually makes his rounds in the store by grabbing and running, grabbing and running some more but on this particular Costco trip he was a perfect angel. I couldn't believe how our shopping experience was pure bliss and I was hoping this was the dawn of a new era for Wyatt. As we were leaving I asked him if he wanted to stop and get some lunch. As we sat down to enjoy our chicken bake together I thought I would profess my love to Wyatt. I wanted to do the psychology thing where you point out all the good so they keeping trying to be good. I went on and on about how there was no one else in the whole world who I would rather be with than him at that moment. I told him how he was just the best child in the whole world and I loved him so much. When I was finally finished with the plethora of complements he turned to me and simply replied, "But mommy I don't love you, I love daddy!" I gathered up our food and decided it was time to go, our good thing had come to an end.

THANKSGIVING

I have to say we have Thanksgiving dinner down pack. We plan two of them in one day. The first is at the Grand America buffet with the Stone side. Here we don't have to cook or clean and there are 6 huge tables of food to choose from waffles, to Crab legs, to Turkey. Then we play a little football in between to work off the 50,000 calories that we consumed in 1 hour time, then another home cooked meal at Chip's parents home. As we waddled to our car and I look down at my belly that looks 7 months pregnant again I smiled and commented to Chip that it's a good thing it's only once a year.






Isn't she so cute!!

My Birthday

It feels like it was a million years ago but my blog is my journal and I wanted to remember this birthday. Is it wrong to admit at 34 I have always secretly wanted a surprise party? Ok it probably is but Im going to admit it anyway because that is what I got. Chip threw me a surprise party with some of our dear friends in our neighborhood and he had it catered with yummy food from Costa VIda which is my favorite. It was such a fun night but the best was that I had no idea. I usually pride myself on figuring things out before but this one took me completely by surprise. On the day of my birthday Twilight premeired so Chip had no option but to see it with me. He actually liked it better than I did. After word we had a free night stay at a hotel in Salt Lake so the kids stayed with my mom. I have to say that even though Im getting older I still LOVE birthdays!!!!

Time to blog again

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season filled with beautiful memories. I took a vacation from blogging so I could fully enjoy the chaos going on in my house so now I need to catch up. We were able to start the holidays off with a family trip to Disneyland before Thanksgiving. It was so magical to be there with all the cousins and grandparents on the Stone side. My kids want to know why we can't live there and to tell the truth I didn't have a good answer. I just hope we will be blessed enough to go many more times in our lives.
