The kids loved playing outside with the bubble machine!

Conference

Conference was amazing today! We thouroghly enjoyed it. I loved Elder Holland and Elder Bednars talks. They were so wonderful. It was also great to hear President Hinckley. We are so blessed to have apostles and prophets on the earth today!

Taggy

As most of you know we call Taggart--Taggy. This all started when Thatcher started calling him Taggy. I guess it was just easier for him to say. Taggy is now rolling all over the place and just today he got up on his hand and knees and started rocking back and forth...I can't believe it! What am I going to do with two little ones to chase after? :)

Play Group!

I look forward to every Tuesday because that is Play Group day! A bunch of us from the ward get together with our kids and the person who is hosting play group that week provides lunch for everyone. It is really great to get together and eat and chat and have the kids play. Yay for play group!

I had to put this picture on here. Thatcher is ALWAYS trying to pull Lacey's bow out of her hair! He is fascinated by it!

Playing with the "Big Kids"

Thatcher thinks that he is as old as some of the "big kids" in our neighborhood. It is pretty funny. On Saturday evening we went out front to do some yard work and Thatcher starting playing with the kids on our street. They are good sports to play with him. He really doesn't see the size difference though. We are so lucky to live on a good street with lots of cute young kids. We also have three member families on our street, and in our neighborhood we have about 8 LDS families. I am starting to call our neighborhood "Little Provo".

Your Hair Should Be Pink

Hyper, insane, and a boatload of fun. You're a traveling party that everyone loves to follow.

What's Your Funky Inner Hair Color?

This is a silly thing I did tonight while Todd is working late.

Happy Birthday Thatcher!

Yesterday was Thatcher's 2nd birthday! We had a lot of fun! In the morning we got up and let him open his presents because I wanted him to be able to play with them all day long. He loved ripping open his gifts and he had a blast playing with his new toys. In the afternoon we had some of his friends over with their moms for a Sponge Bob birthday! We had cake and ice cream and let the kids play. When Todd got home from work we went to Chucky Cheese's and had a great time! Thatcher LOVES pizza and pop, so he was in heaven! We played and played and finally came home and put a very tired birthday boy to sleep. It was a great day! I can't believe my baby is now a preschooler! It really feels like just yesterday I held him in my arms for the first time. Happy Birthday buddy!

Digging Outside

Thatcher absolutly LOVES being outside. I remember when Thatcher was just a few weeks old and he was fussy, all we had to do was take him outside and he would stop crying. We are lucky that we have such nice weather here in Tucson because Thatcher loves to go outside every day and dig in our dirt filled backyard. He gets up in the morning, has breakfast, and then asks for his "shoes". I get him dressed and his shoes on and he heads out the back door with Rorey and says, "bye bye mommy"! He will play out there for hours! He comes back inside every once and again for a drink of ice water and then heads back out! It is really cute. He is ALL boy. He get so dirty that he has to have two baths a day sometimes!

Lots of Video Clips!

As you can see I have posted a few clips of the boys over the last two days doing funny /cute things. Enjoy!

Thatcher eating....

Last night after trying to get Thatcher to take some more "bites" Todd came up with this new little game for him to eat. He would pretend that his food was different animals and make the sounds that went with that animal. Thatcher thought it was hillarious, so I decided to take a video of it!

Thatcher being too cute!

Baby Thatcher

Thatcher has been fascinated with the binkie, bottles, the bouncy seat, pretty much anything that Taggy has or does. So the other day when he was wanting to play with the binkie we let him have it and wrapped him up like we do Taggy and Thatcher didn't know what to do! We rocked him and put him in the "baby seat" and he looked at us like we were crazy!

YUM!

Here is Taggy after his morning cereal. He has just started to eat pretty well off the spoon! I forgot how messy babies (and mom!) get when they eat. Taggart is now six months old and is really a good natured baby. He is really happy all the time as long as he if fed, diapered, and rested.

Saturday Morning...

Here are the boys hanging out on the couch Saturday morning as I got ready for the shower...aren't they cute?

Baby Shower

It feels like everyone I know is pregnant or having babies in the next couple months! I threw a baby shower for my neighbor and friend from the ward, Kelli Tonks. It was really fun and turned out nice. I feel really lucky that I have some fun cute friends to hang around here in Tucson.
