Disneyland Day

Still embarrassed about the "Travis on top of my car" fiasco at gymnastics last week, I decided not to go today. Yesterday, I stayed at home all day so I had to get out of the house but did not want to go shopping. I took the kids to Disneyland. They were so excited! I thought we would stay for 3 hours but ended up being there for 5. As we were leaving we ran into the Eks and decided to stay with them and go on the Nemo ride. Travis and Sara really wanted to go on that one. I don't think that I will wait more than 30 minutes for that ride again (those stairs on the submarine are scary with the kids, especially with Leah in the bjorn). It was a great day for Disneyland, not too cold and not very crowded.

On the Monorail
Meeting the Princesses.

I thought we were waiting in line to go sit down for the Princess Storytime, but it was a line for meeting the princesses. I usually have a "no waiting in line to meet the characters" policy. You can't tell, but they were quite excited (they both have a hard time smiling at the camera...especially Sara!)

At the Princess dance thing-they just stood there and watched the whole time. Travis did break out a couple of moves once. Sara was just taking it all in.

Will Miss President Hinckley

Tonight, President Hinckley died. It is great to have the knowledge that he is now with his wife. I am so thankful that we have a living prophet. President Hinckley was so wonderful! We were so lucky to hear from him a couple of weeks ago at our stake conference. He will be missed.

Playing in the Rain

The kids have been waiting since Christmas to go out in the rain and jump in the puddles with their new rain boots that Santa brought them. This evening, their wish came true.

They decided to make a mud house for the ants.

Finally found the puddles in the gutter in the front.
Too Cute!!

Help...I need Jo-Jo

Sara before her first "big girl" gymnastics class

Super Nanny, I need you!

I would say that 5 nights out of the week my house looks and sounds like it is a commercial for the show, Super Nanny. Well, on Tuesday morning, I decided that I really need Jo-Jo to come to my house to save our family. On Tuesday morning Travis and Sara had gymnastics (it was Sara's first day of Tiny Tots...no more Mommy & Me!!). Their classes get out at the same time, but Travis was done just a minute before Sara. After he got his shoes, I told him to go sit by Leah and wait for me to get Sara. After I got Sara and her shoes, Travis was not by Leah. I really did not think much of it because he is obsessed with the vending machines and I just figured that he was over by them. Anyways, I was helping Sara with her shoes and then buckling Leah in her seat. While I was doing that I heard someone yell, "did anyone leave their kid in a red car?" I didn't think much of it because I didn't leave any kids in the car. Then I got up and headed to the vending machines...no Travy. Then I felt sick...kid, red car...OH NO!!! I walk outside to see a huge circle of mothers around my car with my son standing on the roof of my car with his arms up in the air. One of the gymnastics instructors grabbed him off and started to bring him inside. Red faced and about ready to DIE, I said that he was mine. I think that I was given the look of death. I said that I thought he was at the vending machines. Then the gymnastics instructor sarcastically repeated what I said and then mumbled something. Seriously, I don't think I have ever been so embarrassed in my life!! I did not say a word to Travis and just got in the car. Then came the tears. I felt sick and embarrassed the rest of the day. Luckily, Travis & Sara had a play date at the Bunkers (thanks Camille!!) or else it would have been a LONG day. Honestly, I am so afraid to go back to gymnastics, ever. I'm sure that all the moms are thinking that I am the most irresponsible person in the world, as with the people who work there. I don't think Travis will do that again, but who would have thought that he would have done it in the first place. I know that someday I will laugh about it and wish that I had taken a picture, but believe me, I don't think that any time soon I will forget that sight!

Too Soon!

Leah is getting too big too soon. I miss the skinny little newborn. Don't get me wrong, it is exciting watching her develop, but she is just growing up quicker than I thought she would. Today she is 10 weeks old.

Today Leah....

ROLLED OVER!

Leah's Blessing Day

On Sunday, Leah was blessed. Jay gave her a beautiful blessing.

These are the people who were in the circle. We were thankful to have a lot of our family there for the blessing.

Nate, Roland, Grandpa, Jay, Clint, Joe, Brad, & Dad

I could not resist putting this picture of Travis kissing Sara before church! After church we had our families over for dinner. We had a great time.
