My Week

Monday mornings always come too fast, however is it bad that when I dress Anna in a cute outift it brightens my day?
On Monday evening, we "enjoyed" some cupcakes (and dinner) with the missionaries for over THREE hours!  I won't get into the whole long story, but from my bad attitude you can tell I didn't expect for our whole evening to be taken up that way :)


Tuesday for playgroup we went to a nice farm market to enjoy their pumpkin patch (photo courtesy of  Amanda's instagram, ha). It was nice to finally pick out our pumpkins for the year.



That evening, we had our family pictures taken.  That is always a little stressful, so as a reward/bribe we went to IHOP for dinner.



Last week was the library's Harvest Festival.  It was pretty cute, and fun to bring Jackson to the library (he never gets to go, because we always go while he is in school).

Thursday was Jackson's first all day field trip. He was sooooo excited.  They went to a fun pumpkin patch/petting zoo and he was pretty proud of his faces he drew on his complimentary pumpkin.



My toe nail completely fell off on Friday.  It was the one I hurt a couple of months ago- I kind of had a feeling that would happen because my toe nail had totally separated from the nail bed when I injured it. I'm glad I don't have to worry about it anymore at least.

For preschool, we tried to get a Halloween party going, but it never really took off.  Instead the moms all stayed and we did a craft.  Wyatt was just happy to wear his costume.
And on Saturday, Erik and I went on our first non-church-meeting date in months!  There were no good movies playing (my usual fave-boring I know) so we went out to dinner.  It was really great getting out and having uninterrupted time to talk to each other- a rare thing in our house!

One Weekend, Three Living Arraignments

So I don't have too much time to blog, but thought I would do a quick update of our moving weekend.  First of all I wanted to post this pic of Wyatt trying to drink the rain that came last week.  It was the first time it's really rained here since we came to Arizona, and it was so weird.  Hot, muggy, rain.  All packed up and ready to go.  Friday was our last night in the apt (hallelujah!) One last goodbye To avoid having to pay into the new month, Saturday and Sunday night we stayed in a hotel (it was a lot cheaper surprisingly).  Wyatt was having lots of fun jumping on the bed. So Monday morning, as I was showering, I felt like the conditioner was making my hair feel really weird.  Well, that's because I dumped a bottle of lotion on my hair . . . FYI, that doesn't work well. Monday we finally moved in!  I took these pictures after a full day of unpacking and cleaning if you can believe it.  They look really bad, but they give you a tas...

OK, so I guess the consensus of the man giving me the flowers is creepy to everyone.  I think it's one of those times you had to have been there, because he really didn't seem creepy.  In any event the flowers still look pretty in the kitchen :) Wyatt just cracks me up these days.  I think this is just the funnest age when their personality really shows its true colors.  While we were playing in the backyard I tried to get a video of him using his "worker man voice"  It is the most hilarious thing.  He loves to do things to get me (and especially Erik) to laugh. While I was taking pictures of the boys, I decided I might as well get a shot of the baby tucked away (well not so tucked apparently) at 21 weeks.  I really am feeling so good these days, as long as I get some sleep.  Now that we are back on a normal schedule that's a lot easier to do! Jackson has reached to a new stage as well of keeping himself entertained (without the TV)...

Anna loves being by the fire.  It's actually the only time she doesn't fuss if she's set down.  This girl likes to be held! Our little Sumo wrestler A little dream smile :) We finally found some good bunk beds on Craig's List.  Jackson LOVES sleeping on the top.  I'm still keeping Wyatt in his crib, because he does so well in it.  I see no point in rocking the boat when I have a newborn to give me sleep troubles already.  We'll put Wyatt in bunk bed sometime this summer. Sweet girl.  This is one of my favorite outfits that I ordered for her, because it has my favorite color: yellow :) Jackson always wants to hold her.  Last night we had this sweet conversation: Jackson: "Mom, when are you going to wake up tomorrow morning?" (I've been able to sleep in while my parents have been here) Me: "I don't know Jackson it depends on how much Anna gets up during the night." Jackson: "Oh, I hope she doesn't need to nurse tonight...
