Twilight!! I LOVED it!!!

One of my friends got tickets to the early Twilight premiere so we got to see the movie before it came out at midnight. OH my GOSH!! I LOVED IT!! I was worried that the movie would not do the book justice, but it SO did! Bella was perfect, they couldn't have found a better Bella. At first I was leary of the actor they had playing Edward, but by the end of the movie I was in love with him! It was perfect! I want to go see again and again. I actually have not read the last book yet, and now I am dieing to go get it and read it cover to cover! Anyway had to post how much I loved the movie! I want to see it again and cant wait till the next one comes out! If you haven't seen it by now, stop what your doing and go!

Trick or Treating!

We had so much fun on Halloween....Luke dressed up as Frankenstein and Ellie was (of course) Hannah Montana and Bailey was a ghost. I searched everywhere for a costume that Luke liked and found nothing. My friend finally mentioned I could make up one. Duh, why didn't I think of that. So we decided to be frugal and rip up some old clothes and paint his hair and face. But then we couldn't figure out how to get some bolts to attach to his neck. So the same friend (Shannon) found me some bolts at a costume store that happened to be $10 per bolt. So the thrifty costume ended up adding up quickly.

The $10 bolts!

Then there was the Hannah costume....for this costume I wanted to find things that she would wear again. Great idea in theory, but if you know Ellie you know that getting her dressed is quite the ordeal....Everything bugs her. Her pants are to loose, or her tag on her shirt is itching her or her shoes hurt, its always something! So, so much for wearing any of it again!

The boots that will never be worn again, cause they give you blisters if you refuse to wear socks with them! Good thing she is cute!!!

Then here is our little our little ghost!

Carving pumpkins

I got this great idea to carve pumpkins as a family. So I went and got this great kit, that comes with all the cutting tools, candles and these great patterns so you can do the fancy carvings. The kids went through the patterns and each picked one. A few minutes into it I realized this wasn't going to be a quick little project. Nate carved a ghost for Luke and I carved a cat for Ellie. By the end of the night, Ellie had gone to time out three times and I threatened to throw the pumpkins in the road and run over them with the car. I guess I learned my lesson and we will do plain old jack o lanterns next year. Apparently I am not a very skilled pumpkin carver. Who knew?

Bailey is sitting up!

Bailey is getting so big....She started sitting up a few weeks ago. She is so much more content being able to sit up and play with toys.

My friends little boy Tyce just loves Bailey. It is the cutest thing! Every time he sees her he gets so excited and just wants to smooch her. You can just see the excitemnent in his face and he cant decide the best way to get close to her. The other day he came over and she was sitting up all by herself and he was too funny. He ran over to her and hugged her and and planted a big wet one on her forehead then pushed her down so he could get a better angle on her.

Bailey also had another first this month, her first big fall! She has been rolling for awhile now, so I have been careful not to leave her on the bed or just out of my sight at all. Well the other day she woke up extra early so I had her in laying by me in my bed (not that she doesnt end up there all the time). Anyway she was wiggling all over and I was trying to keep my eyes open when I heard a loud thud. I guess I fell asleep for a second and she fell off the bed. What a sick feeling! Nate was in the shower and came out to find out what the loud noise was. I felt so bad! But somehow she managed to survive and hasnt had any thing major happen since!

Bear Lake

I cant believe that it is already the middle of November....I have so much to post from October that I just keep putting it off. So I will try and get caught up! We started off the month heading to Bear Lake for conference weekend. My parents and my sisters crew all went up and we had a nice relaxing weekend. Well kinda relaxed....I did a whole bunch of haircuts and colors. Its fun to get together with family and get away and not worry about cleaning the house for a weekend.

Luke doing what he does best...playing video games.

Typical Bear Lake acitivity...Doing Nothing

Mel Before.....(she will love me for this!)

Mel after! (my sister)

Makes you think.....

I just read this article on KSL and it makes you think about the whole blogging world.
http://www.ksl.com/?nid=148&sid=4699330
Let me know what you think about it.

Ok I took it off!

I keep getting told to take off my blog frog visitor tracker...apparently all us blog stalkers would like to remain anonymous. So its gone, but I did add there new little chat wall widget. I guess it is suppose to be like IM on facebook or something. So if we happen to be blogging at the same time we can chat. Just what I need, another excuse to be sitting at my computer!

Watch out!!!

The flu is going around it is not a fun one!! I am on day three and I think that I am finally at the end of it. Thank heavens Nate could manage to stay home a little bit. Sometimes I hate that Nate doesn't have a 8-5 schedule because it usually turns into a 8-7, or 8-8 schedule, but luckily this week he was able to arrange things so he could be home with the kids on Monday and then stayed home part of the day Tuesday and had his mom come help me while he had to go in to work. Then luckily my mom took Luke to get his video game that we had promised him and o my gosh he was not about to let us forget. Then she made me her homemade chicken noodle soup. (see there is some pros to living next to your parents AND your in-laws!) I don't know what I would have done, taking care of a baby and throwing up over and over just doesn't work out. So I guess I got a little reminder of what its like being pregnant and I don't want to do that again for a long time, if ever....knock on wood.

Baby Contortionist!!

Since Bailey was born we have noticed that she bends her arms and legs in wierd directions. She always as her arms twisted almost all the way around. I think she is double jointed. They do go back to normal, but for some reason she is comfortable with them twisted. Well now that she is getting bigger and more mobile she is getting out of control. She wiggles out of EVERYTHING even if she is buckled in!! I usually put her in her bouncer on the bathroom floor while I take a shower, but now I cant do it becuase somehow she twists her way out and ends up on the floor. The other day we put her in her swing and I ran outside to find Ellie and I came back to find her with her feet up in the air and her head down in the crack of the swing (where her bum should be) and having a hard time breathing because she was pinching her airway...Scared me to death. Then there is the bumbo which is suppose to be so great cause they can sit them on the counter to watch you and they cant get out.....well not Bay! Somehow she twists her legs around and pushes her way out, she has almost ended up on her head several times.



So yesterday ended up being a bit of a crazy day....We were headed to Grandma and Grampa Todds who live less than a block from us. I was hauling a bunch of stuff over to there house and couldnt carry it all and Bailey at the same time. So I set her in the car seat and loaded up the car. Well you would think that with them living so close we could get there safely so I didnt buckle her, I was to distracted. (bad idea!) Anyway I loaded up and started to head out, well my mind was on not spilling the food I had in the car and Ellie who was taking pictures of the inside of the car with my new camera, so I backed out of the driveway carefully and somehow slammed into a parked car across the street! So after going and confessing to the neighbors, and exchanging insurance information we made it safely one whole block away to Grandmas house. Once we got there I started hauling in my stuff and left Bailey in her seat while I went in and out. Once again bad idea! I took some stuff in and stopped to vent about my amazing driving skills and was headed back out, when I was greeted at the door by Nates grandma who was holding Bailey. She had just happened to pull up and be on her way inside when she heard a screaming baby and went to find Bailey who had somehow rolled over in her carseat and was stuck face down screaming her head off. Seriously how does she do that?? Well needless to say I look like a great mom, I really am in the running for mom of the year! I am thinking I might have to start using duct tape to keep her under control.

What happened...

Last Friday happened to be the schools emergency evacuation drill so I had to go and pick up the kids from school (which by the way is a joke!) Anyway when I went to get Luke, he pointed out the kid that he was so worried about and took me over to introduce me. He said Mom this is my friend Jayden the one that I cried about. Anyway later when we got home he told me how he talked to him and he had all his friends go find him and sit by him at lunch. He said they were sneaky about it and inconspicuously all sat at the table next to him so they could talk to him. He said that he played with him at recess and he was SO nice, and he didn't even talk to him...He just said his name and his teachers name. I guess that makes him nice if he doesn't talk?? So I guess they are friends now, so hopefully they will continue to be.

Such a sensitive kid....

My Luke is such a sensitive kid, I am assuming he gets that from me. I am such a cry baby, it really doesn't take much to get my get me balling. I just have to see someone cry and I join right in. Anyway my sweet Luke and I were doing his homework together when he started to tell me about a boy that he noticed at recess that doesn't have anyone to play with. I said that's sad you should ask him to play and then I went back to his homework. Luke said but mom I see him every recess and he is all alone. He said I watch him walk back and forth across the play ground every recess and he never has anyone to play with. So we started to talk about it and Luke started getting choked up. He said, I saw him rubbing his eyes the other day and I think he was kinda crying. He then said, he has brown skin but that's fine I still want to play with him. (I really hope that's not why he doesn't have anyone to play with). Apparently this is something he has been noticing for awhile and it has really been bothering him. I asked him why he hasn't asked him to play with him and his buddies and he said I don't know his name and I am kinda nervous. He said he followed him around the playground for awhile trying to ask him to play but he was always behind him. So we came up with a plan for him to wait for him to be walking back towards Luke so that he can approach him and ask him his name and see if he wants to play with him and his buddies. So I guess we will see what happens today after school gets out. I love that he is aware of other peoples feelings. I hope that he never grows out of that!

Sticks and Stones and the biggest kid in 1st grade!

Seriously two posts in a row, its a record! Anyway I had to post the latest at the Todd house! Last Friday my friend was picking up my kids from school and called me to tell me that Luke had been hurt and she was on her way to bring him home. I met her in the drive way and Luke was crying really hard. He normally doesnt get to worked up when he is hurt unless it is really bad. So he went on to tell me that he was playing at recess when "the biggest kid in the 1st grade pushed him down". He did add that it was a accident but he fell and hurt his arm. So we jumped in the car and headed to the insta care where it was apparently the place to be that day. It was packed full of hacking coughing people, people going into shock from injuries and to top it off a man walked in that cut his leg open with a chain saw (would you really go to the insta care for that). Anyways after a two hour wait and probably catching every nasty sickness going around right now we got Lukes arm x-rayed and it was officially broken. He has a "buckle fracture" just above his wrist. He was really tough and let them wrap it up and they said they couldnt cast it until the swelling went down. So he went home all bandaged up with a sling and all. Who would have thought a broken arm would be so cool, but when we got home his wonderful friends all greeted him with balloons and candy. After that all the kids wanted broken arms. Anyway he finally got the real cast today and went back to school to show it off. He was a little disappointed at how small the cast was. He said he wasnt sure how he was going to fit all the signatures of his friends on such a small cast. He was right, he came home with a whole lot of signatures. Then again 1st graders do seem to write kinda big!

Catching up......Back to school!

So the first day of school was a few weeks ago and I have yet to post my pictures of that so I guess better late than never. But I decided I have so much to catch up on that I might as well start working on what happens from here on out or I will just never blog again. I may throw in a few old events so I have them for my own memories. But anyways here we go.... Luke and Ellie started school again a few weeks ago and Luke for one is really liking it. He is in first grade so that means all day long, it also means school lunch. His favorite so far is the pizza but if they don't like the main dish then they can have a yogurt or a pb and j...Almost everyday I ask him what he ate and its the same old... Yogurt and a chocolate milk. So healthy! He was also the star of the week this week so we got to make a poster all about him! He is in the Spanish immersion class so he has English half the day and the other half is all in Spanish. His Spanish teacher speaks almost no English so they have no choice but to learn it. He rarely speaks Spanish at home so to hear him speak it at school is hilarious, he has a little Spanish accent. He is doing really well with it and seems to be enjoying it.

Then there is Ellie, she reminded me a few weeks before school started that I cried when Luke went to Kindergarten and asked me if I was going to cry when she went. I said of course, it makes me sad when you will be gone during the day and that you are getting so big so fast. Well the first day of school came and they are all lining up to go in and I start getting emotional and then Ellie's melt down began..... Holy cow was it a nightmare! So needless to say my tears went away and the frustration kicked in. She was hanging on to my arm for dear life and was not about to go into that school without me. I was doing everything in my power to pry her off of me. Anyway I finally got her in and her bag hung up and I escaped. After she got home she told me how much fun it was and how she loved it. Then the next time we did the whole thing again, melt down and all! So now my dear friend Shannon takes her to school because I apparently cant...When I take her we have a complete come-apart but not even a single tear if Shannon does. Seriously I don't get it! Hopefully sometime soon I will be able to take my own daughter to school. Other than that, Ellie seems to be really liking it. She is also in the Spanish immersion program but she has the same teacher for both English and Spanish. She is more willing to speak Spanish at home, so it is fun to hear what she is learning. I cant believe how fast they are both growing and how smart they are!

Sneak Peek!

Oh my gosh.....My sister in law Ann came down on Friday to get her hair done and while she was hear she did the cutest little photo shoot of Bailey. I cant wait to see all the pics, but she put a little sneak peek of them on her photography blog. Check them out at http://anniemationsphotography.blogspot.com/. They are to die for! BTW, she really is sitting in the cup its not a photo shop trick! (people keep asking)

Finally.....

My Bailey update....I cant believe it has taken me this long to get to her. She is already SIX months old! I think that she is my happiest baby yet, sure we have our moments but for the most part she is such a happy baby. I just love waking her up and to see her huge grin! As my friend Shannon says, she looks like she is going to turn inside out when she smiles. I love it.

She has this in-between faze when she is waking up that she is not quite all the way awake so she just tosses and turns so I have to just wake her all the way up and then she is all grins! She started rolling over a few weeks ago and can get across the room pretty dang quick! The other day I put her on one side of the room and went to change the laundry and came back to her on the other side of the room. I guess this means its time for me to start baby proofing the house. Its been awhile since I have had to worry about that stuff.

She also has started to giggle a little bit. If I tickle her tummy I can get a few little laughs out of her. She only does it for a second then I try and show somebody else and she is finished. I cant believe how fast she is growing, she is so much fun. It has been hard having such a gap and getting thrown back into the baby stage again, but I also think that I can enjoy her more this way. Maybe its because of the rocky start, but I just cant get enough of her. Neither can Luke and Ellie.....they cant walk past her without stopping to smooch her or just get in her face and love her! Luke has about a twenty minute limit between his Bailey fixes....he will be mid video game when he has to pause it and run into to just love her and squeeze her. Ellie on the other hand just doesn't leave her side. It is so much fun watching them all grow together!

Just Do it....

You know you want to....(thanks Dest!)

Cute little stinker!!!

So I am finally getting around to doing my Ellie update. I dont know why it is so hard for me to update my own blog. I get so caught up reading everyone elses exciting lives! So here goes.....Ellie is getting so big! Everyone keeps commenting on how much she is growing up lately and I can so see it in the way her clothes are fitting! Not only is she looking older but suddenly she is like a 17 year in a five year olds body. You should hear some of the things she says to me lately! I swear I didnt get smarter than my mother until I was at least fifteen. If I say something she doesnt agree with me about she looks at me and says "Whatever Mother". The other day I did her hair and apparently she thought she was lookin pretty good cause I overheard her in the bathroom while staring in the mirror saying "oh my gosh I am sooo cute, soo cute" then she came out and gave me the talk to the hand sign and said...."you are so weird, mother."

Picture by Anniemations Photography!

Some days I swear I am going to pull my hair out! But then I watch her with Bailey and I melt! She is such a good big sister! I can see it in Baileys eyes that she already adores her big sister. Ellie loves to get her to sleep and somehow she can really do it....apparently Bailey likes to hear her sing Hannah Montana songs cause thats what we listen to all day long!





Its been so long since I have posted about her that I missed her 5th B-day. She of course had a Hannah Montana party and had a ton of little rock stars over. We played musical dots (like chairs, but with big polka dots), hot microphone, we made rock star glasses and lots of other fun things!


Ellie also finished up her last year of preschool, which means kindergarten is on its way. She graduated from Whiz Kidz and loved it! She also finished up her second year of dance and had the cutest recital ever. I love to watch her dance. She gets so nervous, but then just loves to be up on the stage! She asks all the time when her next "stage" is . She also insists that her Dad brings her flowers to all her recitals. I am not sure thats how it is suppose to work. o-well she Loves it!

Where do I even begin????

So I know its been a really long time since I have updated....I have been putting it off so long because I have so much to post, so now I dont know where to start.....I guess Luke would be a good place to begin.

Luke is such a obedient, good kid, sometimes I wonder where he came from. I think he came first so that I would even consider having any more!
He just finished his first season of machine pitch baseball. He had a ton of fun! I think the machine chucking balls at him was intimidating at first but by the end of the season he felt like a pro! Nate was the assistant coach so he ended up taking him to most of the games. The weather wasn't always that great, so a lot of the time I ended up staying at home with the baby..... Its a bit hard having such a age gap with my kids, I wish I could be in two places at once. I overheard him say one day that I didnt come to see very many of his games, so the next few games I parked next to the field and told him I would watch from the car so the baby wouldnt get rained on. Being the good sport he is, he was thrilled with that especially... if I gave him money after for the snack shack.

He has also lost three of the his four front teeth and the last one is so close to popping out (so close its grossing me out). We took him to the dentist for the first time a few weeks ago (yes I know he's six a bit late....I deserve the mom of the year award!) Once again Nate took him because I was home with the baby, so on the way to the dentist Nate promised him they were just going to clean his teeth and take some pictures. They wouldn't do any work at this apt, well once they got there the plan changed. The dentist decided one of his molars needed to come out. Nate explained to him the different methods numbing his mouth and pain relief. So he starts telling him that with the laughing gas they will put the mask on and him and he wont remember anything. Luke looked at him with a terrified look on his face and said "will I remember mom?" So sad....he really thought he wouldn't remember anything prior to having the gas.

He also just finished kindergarten and is so excited to start first grade. I'm not sure I am ready for him to be gone all day long. I cried my eyes out sending him to kindergarten for half a day so now doing the all day thing is going to really set me off. Its the beginning of the end! We have him in the greatest program at school, the Spanish immersion program. They teach half the day in Spanish, no English! It has been so fun to watch him learn. He doesn't speak much Spanish at home but when I go in for parent teacher meetings I am blown away! Its hilarious to hear the little accent he has. Here is a clip of their end of the year program.... (pause the music) Luke is the 5th one from the left in the brown shirt. The cute one!





Well now that its past midnight, I will have to continue tomorrow! I promise I am on a roll now! I will get the Ellie and Bailey updates asap. Especially for you Libby, since you think Bailey is a monkey!

If you're up for it.....

I know I know, I need to post about my kids.....I will, soon! But in case anyone is interested and didnt get a invite (I am terrible about mailing things) and Ellie and her friend delivered some so who knows where most of them went. A few of my friends and I are having a little party! Anyone is invited!

One of my friends has a cute little business called Sugar Bunz, they have darling baby items. The cutest changing pads and matching wipe cases, hair bows and these darling little hot pants that have cute bling on the bum and other darling baby items. http://sofreakingcute.blogspot.com/

Then my other friend will have her Body Shop stuff. Tons of great lotions and skin care, makeup and my favorite is the oil burners that make your house smell yummy. I also love the body butter, it is the best for dry feet and it smells so good!

Then I will have my Layers stuff there.

Then my friends Shannon and Hailey have will be there with there "Doin' it Digital" stuff. They are both way talented digital scrapbookers and will be offering lots of neat stuff. Like Blog designing, digital scrapbook classes and custom invitations or announcements, they will even do your scrapbooking for you!

In case anyone cares...

So I just got the link for the new layers summer line... Here is the link for anyone that is intereseted. They have some cute new stuff and you can order different size tops and bottoms in the new swimsuits.

Look whos talking....

Reality.....

I guess we are starting to get back into reality!!! We are finally taking Bailey out a little bit. Yesterday we enjoyed the nice weather and went to the park for a little bit. It was so warm but so windy, which Bailey didn't love. Luke and Ellie enjoyed getting out until Luke got dizzy and sick on the tire swing. We drove home quickly while Luke held a big cup to his face just in case he puked.

The home health care nurse gave us the go ahead to let Luke and Ellie have HEALTHY friends over. I am still a little paranoid, but I guess its time to move on. But I am still taking temperatures and swabbing throats at the door....OK maybe not to that extent but we do have booger checks

But speaking of reality....tonight is the finale of the Biggest Loser, I am addicted to that show! I cant wait to see who wins, my vote is for Ali. It has to be a girl this time, seriously we have to work so much harder than men!

Miracle at the Todd house!!!

We have had the hardest time getting the kids to bed at a decent hour. I know I am terrible, but my kids sleep in my bed so they usually go to bed when we do. Which has been fine until preschool started and Ellie is suppose to be at school by 9:00am. So that makes for a lot of missed school or a tired awnry girl all day. So anyway last night was huge, I got all three kids to bed by 9:00pm. Luke was in his own bed and yes, Ellie was still in mine. But we are making some serious progress! I wanted to take a picture to prove it, but was affraid the flash would wake them up and it was not worth the risk!!

Catching up.....

Ellie has the funnest preschool teacher. They are always going on the funnest fieldtrips! The last one they had, they went to the new SLC library. When they got there they happen to be filming a commericial for the library so Ellie will be on TV. Ronald Mcdonald was there and so was Mrs Huntsman, the Govenors wife. I didnt get to go this time because I stayed home with Bailey but my friend went and said that Mrs. Huntsmans staff was commenting on how cute Ellie was. She is pretty cute, if I do say so myself.

Kinda fun....

Bad Blogger!

Dont you just hate clicking on blogs that never get updated!!! Well I do, and mine is one of them. I love to read everyones blogs but I cant seem to update my own. I guess I have forgotten how much time and care a newborn takes and so its easier to click one handed than type. Its funny how she can go from living in a tiny hospital bed and not being able to be held hardly at all, to needing me (and only me) to hold her all day. I guess we are making up for lost time. She is getting so big, we havent been to the doctor in awhile but I am guessing she is in the 9 pound range. She is so alert and EVERYONE says she is a mini Ellie. Her hair is looking a little bit reddish, so it should be interesting to see if it stays that way.
Well she says my time is up so ill post more later.

Layers Order

I am finally making my layers order today and will hopefully be picking it up by Friday. So those of you that mentioned you wanted stuff, let me know what it is and I will get it sent in. I will add the link so that you can check out the catalog if I havent given you one. No pressure....I will also be getting a bunch of stuff to have here to try on if anyone is intersested, but I cant afford to buy everything in every size so let me know if there is something specific you are looking for.

I will be posting more interesting things later too...I know I am a slacker! I have this obsession with reading everyone elses blogs and not adding to my own....My life just isnt that interesting so I have to read about everyone elses.

Girls Night Out!

I am a little behind on this blogging thing so ill try and catch up....Im always leaving comments for people to update their blogs and im terrible at it myself. So Friday I found a killer deal on some Disney princess on ice tickets, so Ellie and I recruited some friends and we all went that night! It was so great to have a some time with just Ellie, we dont get much one on one time with the new baby.

Ellie dressed up as Sleeping Beauty, Ellies friend Evi and Chloe were Jasmin and Snow White. It was so cute to see miniature princesses covering the streets in Salt Lake. We had such a great time, I think we will have to make this a tradition and take our new little Princess Bailey in a few years!
