Who needs a toilet?

Yesterday I was doing laundry and Gavin comes to me and says, "Mom come see what I did." So I follow him to our shower he opens it up and said " I peed down the drain." He was so proud, and I'm thinking ohhhh Jared's in trouble. He has been showering with daddy for about a week now. I wonder where he learned that?? Then two weeks ago he comes to me and says the same thing, but I follow him to the garage. He apparently thought it was a genius idea to poop and pee on the steps outside in the garage. I'm pretty sure Jared didn't teach him that one, but you never know. Love my boys!

The dig

We've finally started! We are builidng a cabin with my parents. This has been J's dream forever!! It's so exciting to actually see something happening. It will take awhile to finish but we've got a start!

Blue eyes, green eyes.

Jared and I have green eyes. Both of my kids have blue. My mom has blue eyes like my kids.
Lately Gavin has been asking where we came from. I always tell him from Heavenly Father. He knows he has blue eyes and mom and dad have green. So we tell him he got his blue eyes from grandma. Today we had our normal conversation of where we came from then he asks, "Mom, did grandma give me my blue eyes in a box?"

2 peas in a pod...

My two babies are inseperable! They do the same thing; one will always copy what the other is doing. Gavin gets so bored when Liv is napping. He constantly asks, " Is Livi awake yet?" I guess mom's not much fun anymore!
I know there aren't many pics of me on here lately, but I'm really not diggin the pregnant face or bod this time around. The kids are way more easy on the eyes. So for now, I hope you enjoy my cuties as much as I do!

This year's santa pics

So I don't think Santa was as scary this year. Gavin wouldn't sit on his lap and woulnd't look at him, but Livi liked him. She goes to anybody, even hairy Santa. I don't know why, but I think it's hilarious to watch Gavin be terrified of Santa.

I hope that's not your breath

This is a conversation Gavin and I had the other day.

I smell the inevitable fumes and say "Gavin did you just toot?"
He is embarassed and replies "No mom! It's just my breath!"
Jared and I were on the floor!! I love this kid!

Thanksgiving

I love Thanksgiving in Deer Valley! Every other year when we're with my family we all go to Deer Valley. I was hoping there would be snow, but there wasn't much. The condo's have kitchens and we bring everything and cook it up there. We had fabulous food and played fun games. The kids love it. We went on walks, watched movies and took great naps!! Well at least Jared did. The kids made cute paper turkey with their shoes and hands. They turned out so cute! I will post a pic when I get one. I love my family so much! It was hard to leave and come back to Roosevelt :(

Cabin Fever

We went to the cabin for one last time this season. It was so much fun. My parents came and we had smores and went on walks. So relaxing. I love being in the mountains!

It's a.......

BOY!!!!! We found out this morning we are having another little boy! We are so excited to have a little brother on his way. Livi is already jealous if Gavin gets more attention, so hopefully by the time he comes she will be more willing to share. We feel so blessed and can't wait!!!!
I didn't want to embarrass him by putting the goods on my blog, so this is his little profile.

More Boston

We walked the freedom trail in Boston. It's so crazy! All of the historical buildings are all throughout the city surrounded by skyscrapers and all the new stuff. It was so cool to see the cemetary where Paul Revere was burried. WE also saw his house and the Old North Church where he shined his lantern. Such a cool city!

Boston

My sister-in-law Anna took us to Salem where they had witch stuff. It was cool to see but pretty creepy. I'm so glad I didn't live back then and at that place! It was cool to see some old homes and pilgrim history.








We went to the Boston temple. It was so pretty. We took a little trail from their church up to the temple. It made me think of the Sacred Grove because it was so wooded and quiet and beautiful!

J's B-day!!

J turned 28 on September 30th. He is such a wonderful husband and father. I am so lucky to have him!! WE celebrated his birthday with his family. His mom cooked a fabulous meal and made his favorite cake! Thanks Nancy! I love my family!

Politics Schmolitics....

I know it's a bit iffy to talk politics, especially without offense to someone so I haven't this far, but I feel strongly about this election and was impressed by a letter the First Presidency sent. So in church this past Sunday our Bishop read a letter from the First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. It urged all church members to get educated about the candidates. Then depending on your own views and who you feel more strongly about make that decision and pray about it. Most of all they counseled us to vote. I thought this was so great. I personally was bummed about the 2 candidates in the first place, but after listening to debates and researching myself, I am most definetely voting for Senator McCain. This again is my personal opinion, and I just really don't think Senator Obama stands for good things. He puts down traditional family values and in my opinion his view on abortion shows his disregard for a human life. Also what I find disturbing is the fact that he wants to teach sex education in elementary school. These are very liberal views which I know MUCH of the world agrees with, and many of my dear liberal friends and family :) It is something I Tauni the conservative repulican, don't. I hope we can all take the time to find for ourselves whom we feel is the best candidate for us. That is the beauty of living in this free country. Sorry if I offended any of you, but again something I feel strongly about. I listed this link for those of you who would like some basic info on the 2 candidates and where they stand.
