March Madness

So we had a some stuff going on just a couple of weeks ago and now things have settled down so I can take some time to blog.
Our ward was having a Mother/Daughter campout but luckily the threat of rain cancelled it. Instead, we headed over to the Relief Society president's house for a campout in her living room. Veronica loved it and I was more relieved that I didn't have to sleep on the ground or put a tent up.
The day after the campout we had a little party for David's 3rd birthday. The usual suspects were there. Lots of food and lots of fun. Thanks so much for all the love and presents.
I've been very diligent this month about potty training David. We've had major set backs but we both have committed to the process and are almost there...I hope! Note: Don't take a kid who is still getting used to the potty to Target if he has to pee. David was mortified at how loud the hand blower was (it was seriously like a vacuum cleaner but worst) and I finally managed to get him into the stall and sit him down and the toilet flushes (automatic flushers are not fun!) and freaks the kid out. He jumped off the seat and sprayed me all over. We came out of that bathroom very traumatized... I was sweating and peed on and David was scared and crying. Never again. But, onto more positive news, David has not worn diapers in almost 3 weeks.

Just being silly for the camera!



Sheena and big Jared. Vanessa doesn't know it, but Jared is going to be her body guard. They are about 2 months apart and I feel that they are going to be great friends. Good thing we like his parents!



One of the things I love about having our home is the gatherings we can have, especially around the table. Sharing good food and having a great time.


I think my parents were having a competition on who could stuff David's face with more cake. Seriously, look at David's face...it's priceless.


Little Vanessa loves her abuelo.


David was so excited to finally blow out the candles to his birthday cupcakes. Since his birthday was earlier in the week, he's been wanting cupcakes since.


Jeff came home from work with this monster Sugar Daddy that someone gave him for David's birthday.


Practicing their over-the-shoulder model looks.


David has been following Veronica everywhere and doing everything she does. I think he may need more friends to come over.


Since our 8th wedding anniversary is coming we decided it was time to get rid of our old mattress and get a new one. We saw these memory foam ones and had to get one. So, our tax return helped pay for it...now I just have to convince Jeff that we should get an actual bedframe or a headboard at least.

Going in public restrooms is the worst, the only thing that broke Hailey down was a little toilet her size. I got my 2010 census in the mail and thought of you and filled it out, now I just have to get it in the mailbox. Love the family, they are so cute!
