Cole stayed at home while I did Hunter's carpool on Friday. Upon my return, Cole is in his underwear and I immediately ask what happened. Cole says, "Didn't you get my message? I called you and told you about it already!" My phone didn't show any missed calls and I thought perhaps he had called the wrong number (which he does often enough to know the other person by name). Later, I got a call from my sister, Lara, asking why Cole had called her about spilled milk. Here's a transcription of the message...
Uh, if this is….uh….hi, this is Cole. If this is (major grunt of frustration) my mom Lea, I just want you to know that I spilled my…some milk and it went EVERYWHERE! So I’m cleaning it up and it got on my pants so I took them off and are drying them, so things might be a little crazy around here. Bye.
My favorite part is "a little crazy around here..." since it was just him and his mess!

Hand-me-downs
This is why Danny won't be getting very many hand-me-downs...
President's Day Weekend Fun
We went to Moab for some biking, hiking, and play time. Doug and Tiff joined our noisy family and it was a great weekend - a LOT of boys (9) and the two mommies trying to keep their cool.
(this is suppose to make you think the rock fell on his arm...)
It was a super lame hotel - but we survived with 3 boys in sleeping bags on the floor, a baby in a the pak-n-play in the doorway and the parents enjoying the lumpy, old bed with safety pinned pillows. Sweet memories.
Happy Valentine's Day!
With some inspiration from my friend, I decided to start a new family tradition. I have started it - and I suppose it will be a tradition if I do it again! I kept telling the boys I had something special planned. When I pulled out the tablecloth, candles, and plates - their eyes got real big and suddenly everyone was happily helping me set the table and get ready for our special meal. I bought Papa Murphy Heart-shaped pizzas and served a yummy spinach-strawberry salad with the pizza. I also had a red juice mixed with Sprite and it was fine dining in our house that night! We topped it off with a Razzleberry Pie (made fresh from the box in the freezer). The roses that Shayne gave me were the perfect centerpiece for our beautiful table. I love my boys!
Baby Blessing
On January 29th, Skyler was blessed by his daddy. We had lots of family and friends here and it was a great day. We enjoyed a big pancake breakfast with fresh fruit after church. Sadly, I didn't get any pictures during the visiting/eating because I was so busy cooking.
Cute cousins - Danny and Michael
