Go Cougars!

Oh how we love the Cougars at our house! This year has been especially fun thanks to the success they have had and of course...Jimmer! There have been some ups and downs but we are proud to be Cougars and will be cheering them on in the tournament this weekend. Hopefully they can play well and finish with their heads held high! We love our Auntie Kelsey too!

Project 101

Our basement family room is currently used as our kids playroom. There is plenty of space but their toys and junk seem to fill it up quickly. I am trying to slowly and inexpensively revamp the space. My kids LOVE books but they have been awkwardly placed in a bin behind some stuff making it hard for the kiddos to get to them. I have been stewing over how to make them more convenient for the kids to get out and put away. I have convinced Ryan to help me make some shelves to hang on our wall so the books are visible. I love these 2 ideas. What do you think?

This one found HERE made of wood.
Or this one found HERE from rain gutters.I really like them both but I am trying to decide which one will be easier to make and hold up with 3 crazy boys. Any ideas?

Pick me up...

I have been having one of those days. Just feeling crumby. I just ran the boys to school and came home and realized they had cleaned out their backpacks all over my floor before we left. Luckily I started going through all the papers and found this...

"I love my brother because he is my brother!" Brady
"I love my mom and dad because I just can't help it. I love them all the time!" Easton

I need that today! I love being a mom and I love my kids!

#3...

Need I say more?

Silly boys

For some funny pictures of the boys check out my Mom's blog HERE. I am to lazy to copy and paste them! They were driving her crazy because she just wanted one normal picture! They definitely keep us laughing!

Lukey...

This is our big bubba! We love him! Today we went to the doctor for his 15 month check up. Shockingly he has lost weight from 2 weeks ago and he still weighed in at 26 lbs 4 oz which is the 73rd percentile. He is in the 91st percentile for his height. As I said, he is our BIG boy!

He also had to have a consult with an ENT today. He has had a horrible time with his ears and recently burst his eardrum. Being the chill baby he is, it didn't even bother him. I only took him in because there was pus coming out his ear (gross I know). My pediatrician is worried about his hearing so he will be getting tubes in a couple of weeks. Is it weird that I am excited?!? I am hoping it will help reduce the number of trips we have to take to the doctor. Wish us luck!

Luke is kind of a stubborn boy. He has finally started taking steps but only when he wants to, mostly at night. He definitely prefers crawling over walking any day. I was starting to get a little nervous but my doctor says he is developing fine so he is not worried. I am hoping he will walk someday soon because he is way too heavy for me to carry around much longer!He is just always that happy!

Itty Bitty Ball

We LOVE the Lehi Legacy Center and are jealous we don't live closer to it. The boys went to preschool last year and it was great! They have the best pool ever and great workout facilities. Best of all, they do Itty Bitty Ball for all different sports. This fall we did football and this month we did basketball. The boys love it especially because their cousin Austin does it with them. I am too cheap to pay for the pictures they take but Renee took this one for keepsake!
