Apple Blossom


So I am so behind on this blog.  Since I only have a week until we leave for our California trip, I've decided to just dump all of the picture with little to no commentary.  This is probably a big relief to any readers out there of my bad grammar and non existent spell check.  But anyway, hopefully seeing the pictures will be enough for me when I am 90 and looking through my blog books.  I mean, a picture is worth a thousand years right??

  
  














So this is pretty funny.  After the racers took off we made our way to a good mid point of the course, so we could cheer on Austin and Jackson.  Well, I had my camera out and I was snapping all sorts of pictures of random boys passing us by.  A few minutes later, Derek Staker said, "Well, now that they have passed us should we go to the finish line?"  NO ONE saw Austin or Jackson pass by!  I was so mad and couldn't believe I had missed them.  Well that evening, I was looking through all of those random pictures and realized I had inadvertently taken one of Jackson.  So I zoomed in and took a screen shot, so I at least see Jackson a little :)


  

 




 
  


  

 



This girl loved dancing to all of the music and she surprised me and busted out "a princess wave!"

Haha I like Jackson's gang sign in this one.

  
After a fun filled Apple Blossom weekend, Erik and I snuck in an Saturday evening date to the Hagerstown outlet where he bought his first pair of basketball shoes in years and years and years.  And just to add more irony to this particular purchase.  The FIRST day he wore these brand new "ankle supporting" basketball shoes to play basketball (which had became his usual once a week thing up to that point) he seriously injured his ankle while playing!!!  I felt so bad for him, he is still recovering from it and will probably be for a few more weeks.  However, the irony was too great to not mention.
  
And of course we were on a date anywhere near a Cafe Rio, we will eat there.

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...
