Good Bye Wisdom!!

I finally got my wisdom teeth out. They put me out with an IV. Not only did I get my wisdom teeth removed. They also put in 2 crowns(because of my wisdom teeth) and a ton of fillings were redone. Everything went well during the procedure except I got nauseated from the medicine and threw up on a nurse. They said it happens all the time. Two weeks later I can almost eat on both sides of my mouth. Boy does it take a long to time to heal!!! I recovered faster from having a baby then from this.

Utah State Fair

On Thursday we when to the Fair. We all had a great time. They had this great area set up for kids called Little Hands on the Farm. They start out with an apron and basket. Then they follow a trail to get some feed. Then they move on to a huge cow. Lleyton stopped dead in his tracks when he saw the big cow, the girl behind us when in front of us and showed Lleyton how to put the feed in the trough. You could even milk the fake cow. Lleyton was too intimidated by the size to be interested in milking it. then they give you a carton of milk to put in your basket. Next was the garden, you plant a seed(token) in the garden then on the other side you pick up the veggie you planted. Next was driving the tractor(tricycle). Lleyton filled it up with gas then took it for a spin. Then you sell your products at the market and they give you a play dollar, they then let you go shopping to spend your dollar. You could buy cereal or an apple. After little hands, Lleyton wanted to go down the big yellow side. Rich took him up to the top. Once they were at the top Lleyton started back down the stairs. Maybe next year I will take him and just grab him and slide. Then we went to see the farm animals. the pig in the picture was 800 lbs. WOW!! we then saw some sheep. Lleyton even got brave and Petted the sheep. next came the Cows. I can't believe I'm saying this but, those cow were gorgeous. They were all freshly groomed and glowing. I just wanted reach out and pet them. Of course I didn't be cause I'm not a farm animal petting kind of girl. Over all it was a great day. There is nothing better then spending the day with your family.

Frog Prince any one??

While unpacking boxes Lleyton discovered his frog Halloween costume from last year. He just had to have it on. Next thing I know he is rabbiting around the room like a frog. Kids are so fun!!

Skateboarding in the Kitchen

Lleyton has such a great imagination. Lleyton and Amie were playing in the kitchen and living room. Lletyon starts yelling Skateboard, mommy skateboard. Of course it really sounded like sketbarrd, mommy Sketbarrd. Lleyton was laying on is tommy with a plastic container that had his inside. he was pushing himself across the floor. Saying weeee, mommy weeee. I got him on cameara while he was then pushing his homemade "skateboard" across the kitchen floor.

Cute Bums

Who says diapers are ugly. I found this great pattern to make my own cloth diapers. They are called Rita's Rump Pocket. They Turned out great. I made 17 of them. I used 3 different flannel prints from Wal-mart. It was just my luck that the flannel was even on sale. I spent less then $18. So they were just a little over a dollar for each. yeah, that is like buying a month of disposable diapers. they are a one size diaper so, they will last until potty trained. I just use my flat diapers to stuff the pockets and they work great. the stars and flower one are my favorite. the Frog one is a strange. there eyes just kind of pop out at you.

Big Helper

I like to make my own baby food. To make cereal I just put some rice or oatmeal in the blender and blend away. but, my blender decided that it was not going to blend rice or oatmeal any more. So, I found an alternative. I pulled out the hand grinder and went to town. Lleyton thought it looked like fun and joined in. He had a blast taking turns winding and using a spoon to push the grains down. What a great helper he is!!

Fun with markers

Lleyton just loves to color. this is his first experience with markers.
