SMILES!

SPRING?!?!

Over the weekend we were so excited to not only hear birds chirping again but we found this in the front yard in spots where the snow was beginning to melt.

And today I found this!

All Dressed Up

Andys newest smile

He's not trying to kill her all the time

FINALLY!

Word on the street is that In N Out is coming to Draper in the fall! Finally one within driving distance. Wish it was in SLC but Draper is a good second. Utah is becoming a good second home to this transplanted Californian.

Best Time of the Day

One of Andy's redeeming qualities has been that he is a good napper. That has all changed over the last few weeks, maybe due to the baby, maybe cuz he's almost 3, who knows. They have gone from 2-3 hours to virtually non existence. He layed down for a nap today and 30 minutes later after he begun kicking the walls I went in and found him far from fast asleep. His decals on the wall are now no more. He found some helicopters that were entertaining him. The helicopters were saying, "Don't hit the baby" and "OK, timeout". I will be so sad if he stops napping!

Belated Announcement

Little Sadie joined our family on January 8. She is such a great baby (not hard to be when you have Andy as the benchmark) and is a perfect addition.

We have survived a month and am hopeful we can continue to keep Sadie out of Andy's reach.

Props to all you parents that have more than one kid and manage to leave the house. I took the kids out by myself twice this week and it will be awhile before that happens again.

And I'd Do It Again

I did it. It was passed his nap time and I didn't want him to fall asleep during the 20 minute car ride home so I . . .

gave him a chocolate chip cookie. He stayed awake and made quite the mess. But I would do it again in a heart beat to preserve my 2 hours of peace, the nap.

Do We Dare?

Andy has been drooling over power wheels since about the time he could walk. When we go to the toy store he splits his time between the Thomas the Tank display and sitting in all the power wheels. Well the other day, his wish came true and Kent let him ride one of the neighbors. He rode the thing for 2 hours. It scared me to death but he actually did a good job of turning and didn't run into anything. He figured out how to change gears and I about had a heart attack as he was flying down the street. Now Kent wants to get him one for Christmas and all I can imagine is going from chasing him most of the time as he runs down the street to chasing him all the time as he is flying down the street on one of these things.
