Miracle of miracles,

both kids are napping at the same time right now!  I actually got to eat lunch sitting down, while it was still hot, and without being interrupted!  And since they are both still asleep, I can blog.  Yay!

This week the weather was quite warm.  We broke out the shorts and flip flops!  Winston is still getting the hang of the new shoes, but he's getting better.  We loved playing outside and going for walks.

 We also busted out the bumbo for Edie!  She can sit in it pretty well and likes being able to see everyone.  I love to just make faces at her and watch her smiles.

 Winston got a little jealous and wanted to try it out too.  He's a bit too big for it though :)

Saturday we went down to Orem for a jdawg--a polish dog that Whit really likes.  My parents introduced us to the place, so every time we go we call them to see if they want one too.  Of course they do!  So we met them there and then spent a few hours walking around the mall and the Provo River trail.  It was fun to get out and enjoy being together.  But we didn't take any pictures :(  When we got home Whit got out some nori (seaweed).  Winston loves that stuff and gobbles it right up!   

 Really, he even licks it off his hands.  He must be Asian!

 I think she is too.  I love her asian eyes when she smiles!

Sunday Whit made me a mother's day dinner :)  I've been wanting his tempura for a long time, and I got it!  It was so delicious.  We had such a great time at church, Winston went to nursery for the whole time and Edie slept through half of Sacrament meeting, was good for Sunday School, and fell back asleep halfway through Relief Society.  Awesome!  We came home, put Winston down for a nap and Whit made me dinner.  But the good day ended there.  The kids were soooo cranky and restless and it was raining outside and by 6:00 we had had it!  So we packed up the kids in the car and went for a drive.  They both fell asleep and we had a few minutes of peace and enjoyed the drive :)

 

You can't stay mad at this kid for long, that's for sure!  Whit thought it was hilarious to not button his shirt up all the way.  We kept calling him Rico as he walked around.  It sure made us laugh.  Being a parent is hard work but it sure is worth it!

  1. I'm so glad that both slept at the same time for you, those moments are precious and essential to a mother's sanity.

    You are so right, parenting is super hard work.

    How I wish we lived closer and could do play dates.
