I'm grateful for…my plants

Don't know why but these little planters make me smile:)

May randoms...

The kidlets looking outside on a warm day--i love the diaper legged babies

Baylor LOVES baths! someone mentioned to my motherinlaw how expressive his face is for a baby and this pic is just one of many :)

Baylor picked up Mya's doll and put it up to his chest and patted its back and hugged it!! haha it was so funny and cute! he is the most cuddliest boy! he always has to hug us and always kisses me:)-Mya is a good big sister and loves to bath with "bayer"

The Museum of Natural Curiosity

Memorial day monday Dean's parents came down and helped us with some yard work (pics to come) Dean is so hard working, I know I always say that but he is! He had a sinus infection and was still working hard all day in the sun. Around 2 the parents left and we got cleaned up and I begged Dean to take me and the kids to Lehi to the Museum of Natural Curiosity it is brand new and I have wanted to go so bad. so we went and it was a little over priced but the kids were free and it was worth it cuz it was so neat! One of our favorite was the courage room where you stick your hand in a hole and it does different things, one was where little things came on your hand and it simulated bugs and their feeler things touching your hand all over! oooh it was so weird! Dean jumped pretty good (and so did I)

Mya trying to stomp on the light-it compared you to a panther and how quick they pounce

the hurricane simulator-there wasn't an option for winds to get up to 139 MPH but it did with Dean and we couldn't get it to get that fast again

it took my breath away

cute little water play for babies-I just can't get over how HANDSOME my boy is!

pretending to be mommy! in the X-ray room (that was so cool!)

playing in the water by noah's ark

the coolest park ever! it had shredded bits of tires for the ground so it was spongy and Mya did well on the zip line swing

we probably won't go back again anytime soon cuz it was pricey but it was so cool. I love and crave for family time

Pioneer Park in Provo

a new park we went to by the hospital in provo called Pioneer Park. we really liked it and it has a splash pad too so I hope we can make it out there often this summer

Mother's Day 2014

I'm a little late on writing about Mother's day but the week before I worked three 12 hour days up in Logan and I stayed with my mom and Dean stayed home and worked. I missed him so much! when we got home on the saturday before mother's day he said he got me something and before our night prayers we were kneeling by our bed and he got out my old wedding ring box and said, "will you marry me again?" we laughed and I opened it and he got me an antique spoon ring!! i have always wanted one and he took the initiative to search for this little boutique that sold them and he got me the right size too! good guesser :) he was so thoughtful all weekend! he made me breakfast and dinner, he couldn't stop talking to me, he was so lovey dovey and kept saying how much he missed me. (i should leave more often so when I get back I get treated this way) haha kidding! i really hate being away from him, I feel like a piece of me is missing. I know it's a little cheesy but I even missed being annoyed of him (which sometimes I do feel but not all the time) anyway…this mother's day was a great one! i'm so thankful I can bear children and I have a husband who is a good father and cares about our kids. I'm so thankful I have a boy and a  girl, I'm so thankful for my mom and mother in law, and I love everything about my role as a mother, well I am learning to love the hard parts cuz i'm not gonna lie being a parent is the HARDEST thing I have ever ever done! it sucks sometimes and I cry a lot but I really just try and hang onto the good moments and the times when my heart wants to burst with love. that's what life is really about family!

yardwork

I'm so lucky to have Dean and he is so talented when it comes to yard work and landscaping, he has some ideas for our front yard and we decided we are going to plant some better grass-the kind that we had was so thick and hard, and itchy-so this was our saturday all day we even hired to young boys from our ward, Ryan Linquist and Jamison Judd, to help us (i'm not much help with 2 little ones) but I did do some lifting of the sod. I can't wait to post some before and after which probably won't be until late summer.
