Wow, I feel like I have been so busy lately! I think we have been on the go for the last month straight. I have had a lot of fun taking lots of pics, traveling, and watching my crazy boy. Here are a few highlights from the weekend.
Saturday:
Max got to play with Asher! My cousin Scott, his wife Cassie and adorable little boy Asher came up from Orem. We haven't seen these guys in a while and we had so much fun hanging out with them! We are so excited to have our boys grow up so near each other and close in age. As you can see they love each other already!
It was also a very productive day: I took some pictures of their little family
And I got a little of THIS action!
Cassie, hairdresser extraordinaire, cut and colored my hair. Yaaaay! I was looking pretty sad there for a while. So maybe I am not quite as glamerous as Miss Holmes-Cruise, but it's the look we were going for bangs and all! Cassie seriously did a fantastic job, for once I really really love how my hair looks (seems like that never happens! I either like my cut, OR my color, this time I totally love both!). I will post a pic soon, but before I can do that, I would have to be on the other side of the camera. huh. If anyone needs a new stylist, try Cassie down in Orem, she is fantastic (and I'm picky)! Check her out here:
Sunday was so sunny, we decided to take Max on a walk with our neighbors! He and Heather had a swell time in the little red wagon. How cute are they? I think its love. Particularly on Max's part.
Max the trouble maker.
Lately, Max is into E V E R Y T H I N G. And I mean everything. If it can be opened, is wet or messy, has removable items (thing drawers of clothing), or could pinch his fingers or fall on him, Max is all about it.
Perfect example would be...
I have heard boys will eat you out of house and home, but come on, he's only 13 months!
Particularly troubling is the fact that Max discovered the toilet this week. He always plays in the bathroom while I shower and get ready. On Monday he was up to the usual; opening all the drawers and cabinets and dumping out my basket of nail polish. All the sudden, I heard a SPLASHING sound. I turned around, and there was my baby, having an amazing time making waves in the bowl.
Luckily, the toilets were scrubbed that morning, and I had lots of soap and hand sanitizer on hand. Shudder.
I made these yummy cupcakes on Sunday night and after the first bite, I swear it was like I was back in California! Brittany gave me the SPRINKLES cupcake mix from Williams-Sonoma, and it was almost as good as driving to Newport and getting one from the actual shop. THey were so yummy and came with the best cream cheese frosting recipe ever! Thanks Britt!
On Monday night, we had dinner with Nick and Kesha to celebrate St. Patty's AND Easter! We wore green (see our little leprechauns?) while dying eggs. Ha! We had a great time. The food was great and the company was unbeatable! I love watching Boss and Max together, they're going to be trouble in just another year or so, just wait! I was pretty impressed with some of the creative egg coloring too! Nick can make one mean easter egg. =)
So thats us lately. By the way, I do apologize for neglecting the photoblog lately! I have so many sessions to post its overwhelming! I have weddings, families, babies, sisters... the list goes on. Hopefully tomorrow I can get caught up! Ahhh!
oh and p.s. this was my favorite egg. =)
2 cute lephrecauns :) thanks for coming over - we had a really good time on Monday night watching the Jazz and coloring easter eggs and playing with the boys. Let's get together again soon!
ReplyDeletei have been very worried lately about when daphne will find the toilet. not a good thing! yuck! looks like you guys have been up to so many fun things! and those cupcakes look delicious, i should try them out! have a happy easter!
ReplyDeleteI love it, it's so true, my son can out eat me! we had to buy a latch for our fridge cause ethan was able to reach every shelf and would knock down the pitchers of lemonade or anything glass! As for the toilet, eventually they get over it, ethan went from playing in it to just wanting to be the one to flush, what a nut! what cute st patty's day pictures, we were boring for st pattys, its hard to get into some of that stuff when you stay at home all day and see no one!
ReplyDeleteWOW, you are a social bug! Reading about everything makes me tired:) I think I need to get more exciting!
ReplyDeletefun post. Love the toilet playing...we have to keep the bathroom door shut, and jaxson must be locked in his highchair while I shower. Also-love the little red wagon pics. So cute! I want to see your hair. I need to do something new...
