SO FUNNY!!!

So Teagan loves to eat puffies in his car seat. Derek will fill the holder and he will try his hardest to eat them all as fast as he can. Love this kid

He ends up wearing half of them. It is cute to see him try to get to the bottom. His arms are short so he has to arch and reach in order to get the last of the puffies. SO Cute!!

Tonight we decided to go out to dinner. We are trying to eat at new places to as a couple so we chose MiMi's Cafe. It was really yummy. I loved their soup. Here is Derek and Teagan waiting in to be seated:

We went to Costco tonight as a family to get some things. While we were there we took full advantage of the samples. (The absolute best thing about Costco!!) Well London had some Biscotti and only wanted to eat the Chocolate off...

Love this...

God's cake...
Sometimes we wonder, 'What did I do to deserve this?' or 'Why did God have to do this to me?' Here is a wonderful explanation! A daughter is telling her Mother how everything is going wrong, she's failing algebra, her boyfriend broke up with her and her best friend is moving away.

Meanwhile, her Mother is baking a cake and asks her daughter if she would like a snack, and the daughter says, 'Absolutely Mom, I love your cake.'

'Here, have some cooking oil,' her Mother offers.

'Yuck' says her daughter.

'How about a couple raw eggs?' 'Gross, Mom!'

'Would you like some flour then? Or maybe baking soda?'

'Mom, those are all yucky!'

To which the mother replies: 'Yes , all those things seem bad all by themselves. But when they are put together in the right way, they make a wonderfully delicious cake! '

God works the same way. Many times we wonder why He would let us go through such bad and difficult times. But God knows that when He puts these things all in His order, they always work for good! We just have to trust Him and, eventually, they will all make something wonderful!

Today I took London and Teagan to the NICU at McKay Dee for their screenings. London had a speak screening and Teagan had a development screening. Teagan is doing great. He is right on track with a child his adjusted age (10-11 months). London on the other hand is not doing so great with her speach. I think it is because she is stubborn like her mother. I think she understands things just fine but they are concerned so we are going back in 3 months for her to be re-evaluated. After the evaluations we went to lunch to Wendys with Grandma (she went with to the hospital to help me with the 2 kids). Then we played and played until 3:30 when Grandpa got home. I cut his hair and then me and the kids went home. It was about 4:00 and neither had had a nap. Teagan fell asleep before we were even on the freeway and London fell aslepp around Clearfield. I love watching the kids sleep because they are so precious. Here are some pics of the tired babies:

Notice the coloring book. She did not want to leave Grandmas because she had just started coloring. So Grandma sent it in the car with us.

Around 3:00 today I got a call from Derek. He usually doesnt call me so I knew something was up. He said "Babe can you find me a dentist" I was taken back so I asked why; he then said "A ladder fell on me and I broke my tooth. Its not that bad though" Then he sent me this picture:

I told him he was crazy and had to have it fixed bceause he looked like a hillbilly. Needless to say he got it fixed on his way home from work. Love ya babe...even if you had a hillbilly tooth.

Derek loves to dress Teagan. He makes him look like a stud:

Fun with Photos..

I had some fun playing around with photos:

Teagan loves to open and climb in the bottom drawer of the stove. Dont ask why he likes it but it is his favorite place.

London in the baby doll cradle.

Teagan on the plane to Disneyland.

Crafts

So I finally got the kids names done for their rooms. I think they turned out great!!

Here are some other things I have done:

Londons bow holder out of a cute frame and ribbon.

Finished Teagans wall to match his bedding.

November 14th 2010

Today we had fun at Nana and Papas house. Teagan ate some chalk downstairs. The kids played with the inflatable cow and London took a ride in the doll cradle:

November 13th 2010

Today we did not do a whole lot. Derek had a crazy schedule this weekend. I hate when he has to do overnights or close. I really like him home at night to help with the kids. But that is life married to a retail man. Here are some cute pictures of fun stuff we did:

                                                                    

I was sitting on the couch watching the news when London came in and this is what I saw. She had this cute toy elephant on her head and was walking around.

London also was playing with her toy food, I was in the kitchen doing dishes when I head her crying. I thought she was stuck somewhere so I ran to see what was going on and this is what I saw. She had taken her play food pepper and stuck it down in the hole for Dereks change jar. When Derek got home he had to empty the jar to get the pepper out. London was so happy to have her pepper back.

London loves to play with her castle. In order to keep brother from bothering her she climbs on the table and plays. Not much longer and she wont be able to avoid brother becuase he is getting so tall.

Here is crazy Teagan. I gave him a peice of deli turkey and somehow it ended up stuck to his chin. It lookes like a peice of skin...GROSS!!

November 12th 2010

Today we had a great girl take our family pictures at the Salt Lake Library. Of course London wanted to do her own thing and not coroperate. It was fun and the kids looked awesome!!

I bought this dress for London at Swiss Days. It was kinda pricey but SOOO adorable. Originally I had a plan to go with fall colors and base our outfits around a shirt that Derek has, but when I told him the plan he said "No i am going to wear my gray shirt" so I changed our outfits to match him and they looked great.

Sorry guys!!!

I have not been good about posting everyday. But...i am going to get better! Life is just super busy.

November 11th 2010

Last night we just hung around the house and had fun!! Here are some fun pics of the family:

Before bed the kids (and Derek) watched basketball. They already like sports. London was a daddys girl last night. Teagan is always a daddys boy.

London ready to go shopping with Daddy.

The yummy Pork, stuffing, and apple dish Derek made up. He is such a good cook. I love when he cooks.

Teagan shopping with Daddy. I did not get a picture of him on top of the toilet paper tower at Winco. Derek likes to put him in weird spots.

Again Teagan shopping with Derek. I can only imagine how many times he tried to eat this.

The AMAZING pink flowers Derek bought me because I was having a hard day.

My beautiful flowers again.

Derek. He hates his picture taken. I tell him he better get used to it.

London playing in Teagan's crib.

Teagan in a big boy chair.

Teagan in the infamous ball pit. This is their favorite toy.

November 10th 2010

After work we made a Costco run. Dang that Costco, they always have things you need but did not know you needed like that Huge Santa and kid decoration, or the huge coloring set for London, or that yummy sample of something you will probably not like when you get it home. Oh but Costco how I love thee so much.

November 8th 2010

WHY OH WHY DO I HAVE TO BE LACTOSE INTOLERANT!!!!! Yes I had another episode tonight even though I took my pill with everything I ate. Dang it sucks!!!

November 7th 2010

Today at Stake Confrence Jon Huntsman and M Russell Ballard spoke. It was so good. I cried when John Huntsman brought his 35 year old son to the pulpit. His son is unable to read or speak. He gave him a kiss on his forhead. The spirit was so strong. The love he has for his son echoed through the entire chapel. Thanks Jon Huntsman for reminding me that even though life can be hard with kids it is always going to be worth it.

November 6th 2010

Today I went to Roy to Relief Society Saturday with Heather and my Mom. We had a ton of fun. We made bracelets, cards, pin cusions, learned how to dip chocolate and caramel, ate soup. I love to learn new craft ideas and techniques. The one thing I cannot do is crouchet. I attempted a flower but was way to frustrated, that is Heathers thing not mine. She made my flower and I made her bracelet. Thanks for letting me tag alont :)

November 3rd 2010

Tonight Heather, Eric and Jayden came over so we could do Heathers hair. We did some dark brown over her red and blonde on top. They are having family pics done so they wanted to look their best. We had fun visiting while they kids tore the house to peices. Eric was a little sick from having 3 teeth pulled. We felt so bad for him. It is so much fun to spend time with one of my favorite people in the world. I love my sister and have always looked up to her. She is honestly my bestest friend ever. Love ya to peices Heather!!

November 2nd 2010

So when I walked in the door after work today this is what I saw:

London and Teagan sitting next to each other. Teagan dressed as Elmo. Derek got the outfit on clearance at Toys and London LOVED it. She was all over Teagan when he had it on. Here is London in the costume:

It is so funny that it is a 12 month costume and both the kids fit in it. SO CUTE!!

Here are some other fun things the kids did today:

Sitting in the laundry basket together....

Playing with the papers on the couch. Notice her saggy pants. She is so skinny that pants dont fit her waist because we need 18-24 month for the length.

Also today was Nana's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANA!! We had fun eating at Texas Roadhouse and opening presents. We love you!

More Christmas wants

Indestructable Iphone case.

Handheld vacumn cleaner for the kitchen. I am so sick of sweeping every night.

Teagans getting ready to walk....

So sunday night when we got home Teagan pulled himself up to the couch and moved along it. It is the first time he has ever done that. We were so excited we put him up to the push toy and he pushed it and walked behind it!!! He is getting so big!!
