AOTW #3 FINGERPRINTS MUSEUM

Seriously... Thanks for the idea Chelsea these past 3 weeks have been so much fun!
Well this week we headed back into the heart of Hemet... I know you are probably thinking, Hemet has all of this cool stuff, and I only thought my grandma lived there. Well Hemet is pretty dang cool ! Well this week we went to Kid's Zone AKA Fingerprints Museum. This is one of the coolest kids museums I have been in. It is a kids paradise! There are tons of different stations you can go to for example: Stater's Bros-and shop in the grocery store and use a REAL checkout stand, a Doctor's office-learn about the body, play with doctor's instruments, Police Station-a kids jail,A tv station- kids can see them self on tv while they dress up, A dinosaur dig-dig up real bones, and REAL LIFE SIZE POLICE CARS, MOTORCYCLE, RTA BUS, AMBULANCE, and so much more!!!

Lizzie, Blake, and Nathan had the greatest time! They especially LOVE the Stater Bros Grocery Store. The kids loved shopping and putting different goods in their baskets. When we got there Nathan was checking out, and pretending to carry his groceries to the car. Lizzie loved the dino dig, and she especially loved to EAT the recycled tire rubber....SO GROSS!!!

Check back next week to see where our adventure takes us...

A Little late.. but I have been so busy!!!

So I have been waiting for this day ever since Lizzie was born, and last Sunday was the day... Lizzie's hair can do 2 ponies NOW!!!! I thought she looked adorable, but Lizzie does NOT like anything in her hair which drives me bonkers. She had the 2 ponies in her hair almost all the way through Sacrament Meeting... I was so impressed. Hopefully she will learn to love to have cute bows in her hair, because I can't wait!!! I made some SUPER cute ribbons for her hair today, but she needs a little bit more hair before I can use them.

HOT OFF THE PRESS!!!

So I have such great news!!! Katie told me Monday night that you can already buy your tickets to see Twilight. I was so excited!!! So today I bought my ticket for the midnight showing.. I can't wait... David doesn't think I will be able to stay awake.. since when the clock strikes midnight I'm usually far off in dream land, but for Twlight I will be so awake. I have been counting down the days for this movie forever!!! So go to FANDANGO already and buy your tickets!!! If you want to come with us we are going to hit up Denny's and have an early breakfast before the movie!!!

The more the merrier!!!

VOTING DAY!!!

Lizzie VOTED did you?

Thanks to the HADAD'S!!!

Well last night we headed over to the Hadad's for FHE. We had a great time with the Bodell, Johnson, and Hadad families.We had a lesson about things we are thankful for since Thanksgiving is coming up. Katie took a count and there were 12 kids and 8 adults so it was such a PARTY!!! Thanks again for the yummy ice cream and cake!

Oh, but the highlight of the night was when Lizzie kept grabbing Brody and kissing him. I wish I had gotten a picture. Brody wasn't too excited that Lizzie kept laying wet ones on him, but it was so cute!!

Love songs with Karen Sharp on the KOST

If you are a KOST listener you probably have hear Love songs on the Kost with Karen Sharp. She has the PERFECT voice for LOVE dedications. Well the past couple of nights I have been wanting to call in and do a LOVE dedication to David.. I know cheesy huh? Well Let me just tell you Karen is super cool. I got to chat with her for over 5 mins. Since the song I dedicated to David had ALREADY been played last night, she is going to play it TONIGHT at 10:25 PM with my dedication... SO turn on your radios, or go out to your car tonight to hear my dedication!!!

Have you ever done a dedication to anyone? This was my 1st! It was kinda fun.. to think that everyone who listens to the radio at that time of night will hear me on the radio.

Adventure of the Week #2

This week we headed back into the heart of Hemet and attended a Fall Festival with lots of games and fun. Lizzie loved all the kids and wanted to play the entire time. She especially loved the paint center! When we started walking away I notice that paint had gotten all over her face and hands... thank goodness for wipes! She got to do a ring toss, but mostly she thought eating the bottles were so much better than play the game. She also got to play in the bat cave, but she wasn't so sure about this activity... she sat right by Angel and just kept looking into the cave but wouldn't budge. The lady even brought out the treat to her.. she was a little skeptical of the whole thing.

Too busy looking at all the other kids...

Loving the witch hat...

Not so sure about the bat cave...

Next, we headed the the HEMET ZOO!!! where we saw lots of different animals. I think Lizzie liked the white horse the best since she kept feeling its nose. The Zebras didn't want to play today, but we did see a pregnant goat.

Then we headed to McDonald's for a treat. The kids were kinda bummed since the play place was closed since a kid barfed in it, but we had a great morning! Thanks Kera for letting us in on the fun!

Tune in next week to see where our adventure takes us...

Happy Halloween!!!

THE BUG FAMILY!!!!

DAVID-BEE, KATRINA-LADYBUG, LIZZIE-BUTTERFLY

STICKER FUN!!!!

So Jocelyn a girl I babysit twice a week LOVES stickers!!! She thought it would be fun to put stickers all over Lizzie, her, and I. I told her to put the stickers on Lizzie back since she is infamous for EATING stickers... She thought that was a great idea! So here we are, the three of us with stickers all over the back of us!!! Lizzie just Loves Jocelyn.

OMA & PAPA Came for a visit

Oma and Papa came out last night to come and visit. We always love when they come over, and Lizzie especially can't wait till they get here so they can play. Lizzie tried on her costume and took a couple pictures. She is going to be the cutest butterfly! She looks like a drunken sailor when she walks in the costume since it has so much fabric.

Thanks for the visit!!!

Poop...Poop.. GALORE!!!!

So if you have a quizzy tummy this might not be the post to read. I feel like the worst mom ever! I don't know what I did wrong to deserve this... Lizzie has been having these BOMB poops lately, and she gets it EVERYWHERE!!! This is the 2nd time this week in her crib where she has had an explosion in her crib. In the morning I let her play in her crib and play. Well this morning was not like every other morning... I went out into the garage to spray paint David's shirt for his costume I was out there for probably 10 mins at the most.. then I hear Lizzie playing like normal so I come in and wash my hands and head into the danger zone... To my surprise I found THIS!!! Poop.. poop.. GALORE!!!! She was covered in it.. her bed was covered in it, and the floor was covered in it. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG???? SO as I get Lizzie out of her bed and run into the bathroom TO get her in the tub she is flinging poop everywhere... I'm SERIOUSLY going to pull my hair out... she was so proud of herself, happy and smiling!!! Maybe she just like the texture of her poop?

ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREAT!!!!

SATURDAY FUN

The Trails I LOVE morning dewDaddy and Lizzie enjoying the walkTired LizzieSleeping Lizzie

David and I decided that we were going to start walking on Saturday's together. There are some fun trails over by our house, so we thought we would hit the trails and enjoy our time together. Lizzie loves walks and especially LONG walks.. you can tell by the pictures... it knocked her out. We walked the trails then over by the Shumaker's house and around their neighborhood then down some side roads since we saw some garage sale signs, and back to our car. We had a great time!!! But the highlight of the day was when we saw this garage sale sign... oh how I wish we got a picture... it said, "Neighbor gard sail" it was priceless! Thanks for stupid people who can't spell to make my day.

Adventure of the Week #1

Well Chelsea Fenn gave me this great idea... about doing Adventures on the Week. She has a book with all of these different places to take your kids that are kid appropriate. SMART IDEA HUH? Well I tried to find a book like that for our area, but I had no such luck so instead I'm making my own up. This week we headed into the heart of Hemet, CA. Where we found the Mary Henley Park. This park is a great place for your kids to play, plus it has a 3/4 mile walking trail around the park. You can get a workout plus let your kids play. Kera, the kids, and I had a great time. Lizzie is learning to love the swings.

Tune in next week to see where our adventure leads us!

Lizzie & IN-N-OUT

Well last Friday was a sad day... It was David's last Friday off. We sure loved spending an extra day with him. Well we decided to have fun while it lasted so we ran some errands and Lizzie enjoyed her very 1st In-n-Out. I think by her expression you can tell her love for the simple things in life. She had a great time playing with her hat, she kept turning it around and thinking she was a pirate... then we headed to Lowe's for some things... Lizzie LOVES to look at the Christmas stuff and watch all the different things sing and dance. Well she especially LOVED this reindeer hat and nose. We couldn't get a picture with both the hat and the nose on so we hope you enjoy our lil reindeer!!!
