2 in 1

So we finally put the boys in the same room. It is working out really well so far. they have been in there for two nights and a nap time. So I hope that it keeps going well:)
Also I did some Blog spring cleaning. There were Blogs that I didn't feel related to us any more so I just got rid of them . Plus we weren't on there Blog so I think they felt the same way:) I hope that everyone is doing well....and that you are having nice weather because it hasn't been to great since I got home:(



Also Elijah had a check up yesterday and the Doctor said that he looks really good and the only thing was that he looked like he was going to be getting his top teeth. We will see how long that takes:) He is 10 months now.
Here is a list of things at this stage:

* Says NO NO NO
*Can stand a few seconds with out holding on
*Is crawling on his hands and knees not just army crawling after 5 1/2 months
*Eats almost everything we do and loves almost everything Noah doesn't
*Can mimic what we say
*Is gaining a little more weight
* Claps
*Waves for bye and hi

New Addition

So we got a new baby Kitty:) He is only 6 weeks old. He is a really good cat already. He even sleeps threw the night. lol We got him yesterday. I had to go to Idaho Falls and pay bills and there was a nice couple giving Kitty's away. They had like 12 cats there. They were all so cute. But I needed the most calm one so this is the one that she said would be the best. SO we brought him home. Noah loves him! He has a few scratches on his arms and hand because he likes to hold him A LOT!

AWWWW!

The boys playing with him.

This cute kitty has already made a mess! lol ya right NOAH!



We are still thinking of a name for him? I just can't think of anything that I like. So if you want to leave a comment on a name that you like I will pick one and you can have the joy of naming are cute fluffy kitty:)

The past two weeks in CO

Well I have been in CO since the 10th of this month and I am finally getting around to putting up a few photos. We have been staying every busy and doing a lot of fun things. We have gone to the Zoo for one day we went and say my family in Pueblo which is only 2 hours from are house. We have gone to the Park A LOT. and we have gone out and had some yummy food. Noah is loving the animals even though he kind of teases them ALL day. My parents have a closed in back yard so we are able to let him just go out and play when he wants.

I started a project on my old room on Tuesday and got it done Wed. The room to start with was yellow and purple. I painted the whole room white and then added a brown boarder about 2 feet up. I then added a really nice brown silky curtin in and three 5x7 photo frames above the bed. I cleaned everything really well. I don't have any photos yet but it looks good:) My whole body is soar but I'm starting to feel better.

We have takin the boys to do a lot of fun things but we are starting to get ready to head back home on Saturday. Noah misses his daddy and keeps asking if he can go on the Airplane to see him:( while we have been here Noah is doing really good with counting. He only gets to 3 on his own but I'm so glade that he is starting to get it:) He can say Blue and green on the right color and he is starting to talk more. He already talkes good but you can hear everything that he says now.

Elijah crawls on his hands and knees more but he still likes the army crawl. He has two teeth on the bottom and they are so cute:) He is eating everything that he can and he loves everything that Noah wont eat. I hope that he stay that way and doesn't get picky.

Here are a few pictures of are trip.
We are almost home DADDY:) xoxo

Here we are at the play place at the Mall.



We got hit with LOTS of snow the day after the Zoo where I got a little sun burnt.

He had so much fun. Every time he came around he would wave and smile:)

Noah and G-pa.

We got to ride the train.



Elijah new what to due as soon as he say these drums.

Then Noah caught on.







He loved seeing the animals. He asked to see them a few days following are trip here.

The boys got cute hats to wear. And Noah said it was like daddy's.





We had Easter at my Parents house. Colby was there Friday threw Monday.

Colby was tired and the Boys wanted to play:)

My mom made this cute basket with Choco ducks and colored eggs.

Memoirs of a Bachelor

So Trisha and the boys have been gone for over a week and I haven't seen them since Monday. NO, we're not having marriage problems! haha, she just took a trip to see her parents and decided it was going to be for two weeks. I was able to go with them for the first 4 days and install a new bathroom vanity and sink for her parents. We had a lot of fun and I thought that with two weeks alone I would be able to do all the things I've been wanting to do, and do it as much as I wanted. I was wrong. At work we're getting the apartment complex ready for tenants to move in so we've been working late getting everything ready. Last night I worked until 12:30. Then I compe home and pull something out of the freezer to throw in the oven, shower, and go to bed. In my little free time I've been training my dog, Dodge. He's only 11 months and with the time I've put into him he's far better than any dog I've ever had. The good news is I've finally got a day off to do whatever I want. So I've got the car packed with my rifle and bow, going to a 3D target shoot and then go shoot my rifle for a bit. Staying busy keeps me out of the house where it's so quiet and I miss the wife and kids so much. You don't have to be parted very long to realize how much fun your family is and how much they really mean to you. I miss you Trisha!

DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well to start if you don't like to look at Poop then don't look at the photos!

I was in the living room looking at are e-mail when I got this nasty smell. I thought that Noah needed a diaper change. So I got up and there was Elijah crawling in to the living room. I looked at his face and yes there it was POOP! I'm not sure if he ate any but it was all over the front of him. Hands, face, legs and his shirt:( I went into the Kitchen and there it was sure enough Noah had pooped on the floor and the boys were playing in it! SICKKKKKK!!!! I picked them both and up and put them in the bath. After that Elijah was ready for a nap and Noah got to play in his room for 45 min until I finished cleaning the floor and mopping twice. First with soap and water by hand then bleach with the mop and after that I followed with floor cleaner. i wouldn't say you could EAT off the floor after what I just told you but I would say that the water was clear when I was done cleaning it the last time. So for all those great parents out there here is something to look forward to and to the parents that have had there children make NASTY NASTY messes such as this I know how gross it is and I feel the same way! Well now the floor is cleaner then it ever has been after being moped so much and my house smells like different cleaning products and room spray. Lucky me once again!


Poor kid!

On his foot

ugh the mess!

On the front of his body

and in the left corner you can see that Noah took his diaper and pants off. He peed next to them and then pooped some where and it was smeared all over! :(:( :'(

P.S
This is not being blamed on any Monsters!!!

Quick Trip

On Thursday around 12pm Colby got an e-mail that said there was going to be a job fair in Richland WA. So him and his friends said that they felt like they needed to go. He got home we talked about it and decided that we would all go. We packed up ate dinner and was out the door by 6pm. We got to WA about 3:30 in the morning. We were so tired!! Colby was up at about 6:30 showered and ready to go. They left the house around 8:30 and they waited in line for about 2 hours. He figured that there had to of been at least 1500 people that day and it was for two days. They were said to be hiring 400 people in two days and they are looking for around 4000 for this 10 year project. So we will see what happens. We met up for lunch at the Korean restaurant and then did a few things around town. That evening we went to Seth and Heathers and then off to Colby's parents for dinner and to relax. We were in bed at around 8:30-9.

On Saturday we had Becky over Tyson's wife. Colby's Brother. And we let the kids dye Easter eggs and then we had an Easter egg hunt for them since we weren't going to be there for Easter. It was so fun. Becky stayed out till just after dinner. Seth, Heather and there family came out for dinner and to stay the night. All the guys went to the Priesthood meeting that night. Colby even got to due some shooting that after noon.

On Sunday we all had waffles and watched Conference. We left after the first hour because we didn't want to be home to late. But it was a fun trip we stayed busy and got to see family which was really nice because we aren't to sure where we are going to be moving in the next 3 months. So it was nice to get together and stay busy.

Thanks for having us for the weekend:)

Noah got to ride the 4 Wheeler A LOT!!

He fed the animals with Grandpa and mooed at the cows.

He started a cute trend to wear your bucket on your head. lol

So they all did it.

We let the kids dye there eggs. But we let Noah and Natale color on there's with markers.

Doing the Easter egg hunt.

Noah and Kaitlynn

And of course are cute little Elijah. He loves Ice Cream. So for his treat he got his own ice cream cone. (you can see his one tooth)
