Family, firetrucks and I can't think of a "f" word for caterpillars




It is a little hard to remember what we have done lately! We took Logan to the fire station open house. He loved it! He got a tour, ate cake, sat in fire trucks, and put out a fake fire. Plus, a new red hat. He also has been loving the library, here is a picture of him with his very own hungry, hungry caterpillar. McKay is desperately trying to work out some teeth, but is having no progress. The other day I was counting the bites Logan had to have before he could get down (3, by the way). So I said, "One." Then McKay said "two!" (You have to imagine the cute little voice drawing it out.) What a smartie!

We just got back from Vegas where we watched BYU trounce all over UNLV. There were more Cougar fans then Rebels, it was a cool game. We also go to see my friends (family?) Duane, Becky and Betsy. So, so good to see them again! I miss everyone! Logan and McKay went to play with their cousins in Casa Grande, which they loved. Logan told me he missed me, but also said, "Logan no go home." Thanks Chris and Kendi, I'm sure church was fun with my two little monkeys!

You'll note the new playlist and background. The 80s music is compliments of Loren, Bob the Builder was a request from Logan. Enjoy!

A little dancing for Julie

Potty training, big mammals and surgery success!



That's it--I'm calling it! I'm saying that Logan is potty-trained! Whoo-hoo! We took him to this little KidzFaire thing as his present for being potty trained. It wasn't too exciting, although he got to take his picture with Scooby and dance with Dorothy from the Wiggles. McKay was less than impressed. They had a chance to make a few crafts and hang out with kids.

Yesterday I took the kids to the last free day at the zoo. They were more interested in the play areas and slides than the animals. I pointed out a few animals and they looked at me like: "Uh huh. An elephant. Great. Can we go play now?" Maybe wait until they are a little older?

Logan started a weekly music class, which he loves. He dances around and plays instruments. It is his favorite time of the week. Loren has recovered from his surgeries and is feeling much better. It has started cooling down--maybe we have officially made it through our first Arizona summer?
