Seriously? This Kid can Fall Asleep Anywhere!

I don't know how he does it, but Logan can and does fall asleep in the weirdest places! It didn't even phase him that he had his car on top of him!

Planetarium

I know I have mentioned before how wonderful my family is, but they seriously are. My oldest sister was off track for two and a half weeks and she took Logan to do all sorts of fun things so I could have a break. They went to the aqaurium several times, played with Lincoln she took him shopping with her. On this day they went to the Clark Planetarium and Tucano's with Lincoln's mom and sisters. He had so much fun. He got to ride the "Train" for only his second time ever and LOVED it! He also got to "walk on Mars" and do all kinds of fun things at the planetarium. They saw a 3D movie and he kept grabbing at the air and saying, "I can't grab it!" I wish I had been there to see that.
After the planetarium they went to Tucano's for lunch. Logan spent 20 minutes playing with his tongs and then finally started eating and ended up knocking his bowl on the floor, breaking it. They servers came over and cleaned it up and said it was all right and who could get mad a face like that. 5 minutes later Lincoln comes back to the table with another bowl of fruit for Logan. Emily asked why he would get him another glass bowl when he had just broken it and Lincoln said, "Like the server said, who could say no to a face like that?" I couldn't agree more. His innocent face can get that kid whatever he wants.
Thank you so much Emily for being so willing to give me a break! Thanks to my whole family who always offer to take Logan. We really appreciate it!

Success

We had so much fun at our boutique on Saturday. Thank you so much to everyone who came it was a great success. We feel like our booth was the busiest and heard several other vendors talking about it. We had a great time. But since it was bad weather and they didn't have as many people come as they hoped, they scheduled us for their next boutique in August. We can't wait. We are hoping to find another venue before that, but for right now I am just enjoying not working all day everyday on making bows! Thanks again to everyone who came and supported us.

One More Time

Alright, just one more time I am going to mention our boutique. Its this Saturday, May 1st at Historic Wheeler Farm, which is 6351 South 900 East. It is from 9 am til 3 pm and Spongebob will be there from 10 am til 1 pm. If you want to see some of the items we will be selling our blog address is http://bitsandpieces10.blogspot.com. There will also be other vendors there selling things, but I am not sure what. We hope to see you there!

Bits and Pieces

My sister and I love to do new things. We have several hobbies that we love and always talk about selling our stuff. The problem is we are big talkers and not big doers. Well this time we are actually doing it. We are doing a boutique at Wheeler Farm on May 1st and we are so excited and nervous about it. We started a blog to show some things we will be selling. We will be selling hair clippies, headbands, crocheted hats, and onesies. If you want to see some stuff we will be selling go look at our blog at http://bitsandpieces10.blogspot.com . We will be adding new pictures all week. We are very nervous for this and hope it goes well. We have had so much fun getting ready for it.

Drive-In Movie

We decided to brave the cold this weekend and go to the drive-in. We saw How to Train Your Dragon and Percy Jackson. We all really like the first movie, but I think a lot of us fell asleep during the second.

Logan and Daddy in the nice warm car. I know Logan looks goofy in this picture, but I took about ten and this was the best of all of them. It was really dark so when the flash would go off both of my boys would make goofy faces.


It was really dark when I was taking pictures so I just kind of had to aim and shoot. This is what face Linc decided to make in the dark.

All the Aulai kids that came and Layne. They didn't stay outside for long. It was way cold. Leslie was the only one who managed to handle the cold weather.

Easter Post

Easter weekend in pictures:

Logan looking through his Easter basket on Saturday morning. He got a swimsuit, Bolt, new sandals, bubbles, and fun sand toys for our trip to California this summer!


Easter Egg Hunt up at Suncrest. I babysit up there and they had an Easter Egg Hunt that we went to. It was freezing, but the kids got a lot of eggs!

Waiting to go outside to start Grandma and Grandpa's egg hunt.

This one is blurry cause once the door opened he dashed outside to start looking for eggs.


When he was looking for eggs he would put his finger up to him mouth and go "Hmmm".

Daddy helping him get an egg out of the tree.

Showing us his basket full of eggs.

Logan got the most money out of everyone. He got $9.15. He is saving that money for our trip to Disneyland.

Holding his egg drop. Daddy put 4 rolls of toilet paper around an egg and then stuffed all the holes with toilet paper. It last three drops. After that we went to grandpa throwing them on the ground to see whose would break and Logan's did. He kept telling everyone it popped.

Family watching the egg drop. This is always a very exciting event. My dad throws the entries over the roof and they land on the ground. Whoevers egg lasts through the throwing over the fence and then throwing on the ground get to pick a prize out of Grandpa's closet.

10 Things

I feel like I really haven't had much to blog about lately. We have been good and busy with birthdays, showers, and wedding shopping, but nothing really to document. And since I am sick of seeing my last post everytime I open my blog I decided copy my moms blog and do a 10 things that made me happy this last week.

1- I loved when we were all playing tickle monster this week. David was tickling Logan and in between tickles Logan yelled, "Seriously, I don't have time for this!"

2- I loved finding a really cute sweater to wear for my little brothers wedding for $4.50! Sears had a ton of clearance!

3- I loved going and finding a temple dress with my mom and sister. I have been married for 4 1/2 years yet this was my first time buying a temple dress. I can now go to any temple and don't have to worry about renting clothes.

4- I am so happy that I for the first time ever got a runners high on my run on Saturday and ran 2 1/2 miles and probably could have gone more. It might not seem like a long run to some people, but for me it was awesome and I can't wait to run a 5K on April 17!

5- I loved that Logan was so good all week. It gives me hope that these terrible two's might be ending soon.

6- I love and am so grateful that I have opportunities to do odds and ends jobs that make it so I can earn a little extra money for our family. Its so great that these little jobs are always things that I can take Logan with me.

7- I am happy I got to go to the Night for the Arts that my grandma put on downtown. Who would've thought I would actually enjoy opera. It was also so nice to go on a date with David that wasn't just dinner and a movie.

8- I am so happy that we had such wonderful weather for most of the week. We even went to the park for playdate and played outside several times. It makes me so excited for summer!

9- This was two weeks ago, but I bought Logan some toddler bedding at Target. The next week it was on sale. I was so bummed. My mom told me she would take the receipt in and they would give me the difference back. I could not and still can't figure out why they would do that. They are out money doing that. But she went in and did it for me and I got the difference back. It always makes me happy to save money!

10- I am so happy my husband has a job that makes it so I can stay home with Logan. He works so hard and I am so grateful for him!

I really am glad I could think of 10 things to be happy about (and I know I could think of more) when there is so much sadness in the world. Thanks for the inspiration mom! If you go check out my mom's blog and become a follower she has an awesome giveaway going on. She is putting new stuff in a basket all the time until she gets 33 followers.

We Waited a Long Time for These!

About 7 months ago we noticed water on our laundry room floor. David took a look at our washing machine and noticed there was a part with a crack in it. We ordered in the part and David got it fixed... for a few months. We decided since we couldn't figure out the problem we would just buy a new washing machine when we got our tax return. Starting at the end of January the leak was so bad we couldn't even use it. So when we got our tax return at the beginning of February we went to Home Depot and looked around. We had planned on not spending a lot, but found an amazing deal we couldn't give up. Our washing machine and dryer were originally $800 each, but I guess Home Depot ordered too many so they were selling them for $500 each. Plus we got $150 back from Questar and Rocky Mountain Power. Which would make them $425 each. It was supposed to be delivered the next Friday. On Monday we recieved a call saying the washing machine and dryer were on back order until March 9th. A whole month later. We were not happy since we hadn't had a washing machine in a couple weeks. David decided to call and see if they could do anything to make this up to us and she said they would take 10% off. That made these wonderful #1 consumer rated washer and dryer $375 each plus tax. I am in love with them. Even though David has been so wonderful and has done all the laundry since we got them on Tuesday!

Big Boy Bed

After Logan kept climbing out of his crib and into our bed Friday night and kept us up til 4:00 am we decided we needed to get a new bed for him FAST! So Saturday when David got home from work we headed to Walmart and got his new toddler bed. David set it up that night and Logan loves it! He is actually excited to go to bed to sleep in his big boy bed. We haven't had any problems with him not taking naps or anything. He did wake up at 5:00 one morning but he just came and crawled in our bed and fell back asleep. I am loving this bed! Plus we don't have to worry about him falling and getting hurt when he is so sleepy cause he is so close to the ground. Our next project is to stain all of the other furniture in his room to match.

Right after his daddy finished putting his bed together!


Loving his bed! Today for playdate he was excited to show Annie, Layne and Leslie!
