Busy, busy, busy.

Things are busy here as always. Even if we just stay home it seems so hectic all the time, I am not sure how we accomplish this.

We have been working hard trying to get things down-sized and organized. Normally I would have tried to do this while packing up but with the miscarriage and all I didn't do any of the packing. I am feeling good now and I feel ready to tackle all of our clutter and excess and I think it is going to be a big difference when it is all done. So, if any of you are near St. George and you need toys I can hook you up! We have WAY too many and we seriously need to find a new home for them. --Of course you may only be interested in this if you have boys, because that is the only kind we have!

I have been learning a new skill that I am sure you will all be jealous of. Steve has been teaching me how to solve the Rubik's cube. I am LOVING it. I have only learned how to do the first two rows so far but I have them pretty well down now so I think I will have him teach me the final row. It is seriously so fun I can't believe I didn't learn sooner. I love this kind of stuff though, jigsaw puzzles, sudoku, tetris, all of it. Man, I am such a geek.

As an incentive last year Steve's company offered a Cabo San Lucas trip and we leave for that early Saturday morning. We are leaving here tomorrow afternoon and will stay the night with Steve's family. The boys are going to be with them while we are gone. I am so excited! We haven't had a single vacation since we have been married. Though we did have one night away last May for our anniversary-does that count? I get to swim with dolphins and learn to do tricks with them and stuff! Seriously. So excited!

In other news the boys have been up to their usual tricks. Bronson does this thing when he is getting in trouble that just melts me and I can't help but smile. What he does is this. First you have to picture Bronson and the sweet, yet uber-mischevious grin he has. got it? okay. We were attempting to get the boys to fall asleep in the same room at the same time. (yeah, it didn't work) and I kept having to go in there and get after them to go to sleep. when I did Bronson would swiftly climb back in his bed and lay down and grin up at me and say "goooood?" Now if you are reading this while picturing his puppy-dog eyes and his impish grin you should be laughing out loud- or at least smirking! what? you aren't? Man, I am such a sucker for these boys.

Another cute thing. Bronson had a toy that Logan wanted and of course I wouldn't let Logan snatch it (despite his best efforts to). So Logan sat "patiently" and waited for Bronson to put it down. After just a minute or so Bronson handed to him and said "share?" AHHH, so sweet. Seriously, melt my heart.

Today we were taking the boys out to dinner and I was combing their ridiculously unruly hair. I had to use water and a comb to make it semi-cooperate. While I was combing Bronson's hair Logan got a comb and started dipping it in and 'combing' his hair. Basically he had one spot on his head that was soaked and the rest was bone dry. After I finished Bronson's I moved on to Logan's. Bronson took this as an open invitation to comb his own hair. This started out fine but soon turned into Bronson sucking the water off the comb and dipping it back in for more. ewww. sick.

Wow, this turned into a long post. I need to blog more often!

I've been totally blog inactive for a while and didn't realize that you miscarried. I'm so sorry. Know that I'm thinking of you.

Have a great time on your trip! You guys deserve it!

Have fun in Cabo! I'm so jealous. It seems like everyone's going on vacations but me. I'm just sitting at home while my hubby works his life away...

Have you guys moved twice lately? Maybe I'm just behind (or confused!)
I'll be excited to hear about your trip when you get back! You definitely deserve it.
