Fun Times

Yesterday Owen and I hung out. Shane had drill so it was just the two of us. We ran a couple of errands and then we went to the park so Owen could run around and play on the slides. He had a good time, it was nice that it was great weather as well. Can't wait for it to continue. Seems like you always feel better when the sun is shining and you're outside.

Owen had this obsession that he needed to go bowling and kept asking while we were at the park. I told him that we needed to wait until his dad got home to ask him. We went bowling last year and Owen had a good time, but I think from playing the Wii bowling that it gave him the idea that he really wanted to go bowling. We went to the Spare Time Family Fun Center in Roy. It was an adventure for sure. Shane and I even bowled with him and I must say that I totally sucked because of my own bowling ball in front. It was a little difficult since my center of gravity was off. Needless to say that Owen beat me. (By the way, it is free for 3 and under to go bowling and to play mini golf)

After we bowled we played a game of mini golf. That was also fun because it was glow in the dark. Owen loved it because his clothes were glowing. Owen didn't really play, but I gave Shane a run for his money. He only beat me by 5 points. There will be a rematch for sure when the baby is out. Then it is game on!!!!!!










I think Shane and I had more fun posing for pictures!!!!

Owen's Big Bed

We got Owen a bunk bed last week and it was delivered on Tuesday. He was so excited to have it in his room that now he spends more time in there playing. It is bigger than what I thought it was going to be in that room, but what do you do when you have a crib set up on the other side!?!? It is only for a while that Owen and the baby will need to share. I think we might be looking at upgrading to a bigger house soon since we have now out grown this house.

Owen slept the first night on the top bunk, but it was a chore to get him off in the morning with climbing a ladder and my big belly. The second night we moved the mattress to the lower bunk and it was much easier to get him up. He loves his bed though and has asked everyone if they can sleep over. We pick up the second mattress tomorrow so then he could have sleep overs in his room.

Kind of surreal that my baby isn't a baby anymore and with getting this new bed and the crib being put on the other side of the room is making this new baby seem more real. I think it will be even more real when I start washing her clothes, getting them put into her drawers and her bedding in the crib.

Here are some pictures of his bed;

Easter Weekend

Friday was my mom's 60th birthday. We all met down in Salt Lake to have dinner at the Spaghetti Factory. Dinner was really yummy. I had angel hair pasta with a clam sauce. It was really good. We then walked around Trolley Square and went into the Potty Barn Kids. That is a dangerous store!!!!! But we found the cutest bedding that we will be using for our little girl.





The colors in the quilt are lavender, purple, green, white and some brown. Very cute!!!! I really liked all these colors together. We also found the softest crib sheets I have ever felt. We bought them in the lavender and green. They will be so soft for her to snuggle into, I can't wait.


Saturday Shane and I couldn't sleep. We were up around 4:30 am. Shane started on his homework because he has so much to do before finals and needed to get some stuff done. I started cleaning the house and doing the laundry. I had the kitchen and bathroom cleaned by 6 am. I think I had all the laundry done and folded by 11 am. Kind of crazy!!!! We then headed up to my parent's house again that night so the guys could attend priesthood session and then me and my mom hung out. We watched New Moon. Shane had bought it for me over a week ago and I did not have a chance to watch it yet. Then we had pizza, birthday cake and headed home for the night.





Sunday again we went up to my parent's for dinner. We had a nice spiral ham, funeral potatoes, asparagus, rolls and a yummy salad that my mom made. It was all very delicious that I think I will have gained 5 more lbs just from eating this whole weekend. LOL! The Easter bunny then surprised us and the kids had to find their baskets and all the eggs that were dropped off. Seems like it was a very good day. Glad to be with family!!!!
