Melinda made me do it!!!

So, I gave into pressure to update my blog.... thanks Melinda. I am so used to just updating on Sundays like my old schedule would allow but now we spend Sundays with family so I don't have much time to myself anymore on that day. Now I figure I need to update whenever I can and since Jared doesn't have school today well...here I am. Anna figured out clapping a couple of weeks ago and she started crawling on Sunday and I'll give a clip and an update about that later. Here are some recent pictures I've taken.



The girls love to take a bath, even in our new (old) house!!




I thought this was cute. This is our new little set up for meals & snacks. My only problem with it is when Anna eats hers all gone she goes after Eva's and Eva is starting to throw a fit about it. She even received a battle wound (scratch) on her arm trying to defend her territory. Oh ya, this is one of Eva's first ponies and poor Anna won't have enough hair for a while to get one. But she still can wear the cute bows!







So this was a first for Anna this week. She usually will only fall asleep in her bed or the car but today she wore herself out completely and in a split second she was out of food and out for a nap. Jared tried to move her to her bed which didn't turn out as good as he hoped. ( I would've left her there knowing that)






I've been telling Juel we would go to Chuckee Cheese's for FHE and on Monday he asked me "Mom, what day is it?" I told him it was Monday & he got really excited and said "tonight we get to go to Chuckee Cheese's." I forgot that Jared has school on Mondays now so I felt bad when I had to tell him we couldn't go. So the next day we asked dad if we could go and he said yes!!! We had a lot of fun!!. I remember Chuckee Cheese's to be dirty and gross (Sandy) and the Orem one was really clean and nice. I would definitely go back there. Poor Jared tried a few games trying to win Juel some tickets. He said the best was that skiball one and that it gave him 8 tickets. wahoo!! I said give me 2 tokens to try (this was right before we left 'cause I felt bad that Juel didn't have very many tickets). With the 2 tokens I won 66 ticket for him! I was laughing at Jared's attemp...good effort, sad results. Next time you watch the girls and I'll help Juel win tickets!!!! (Are you happy now Melinda?)

Yep! It's about time!:) Good job Anna! Watch for those stairs! :) I love Eva's pony! Way cute! How is Jared's ego? Has he stopped pouting?
Have fun at Lagoon! Happy Birthday Tuesday Jared! Stay away from the game booths. :D
