Sleep!

Saturday morning Bevin was up early and ready to go get stuff done. I wanted to sleep in. So did Carter. It was about 8:30am and Carter was still asleep. Bevin went in and woke him up. This was how his conversation with Carter went:

Bevin: "Wake up! We are going to go to the store!"

Carter: "No Way!"

Bevin: "What do you want to do?"

Carter: "SLEEP!!!!"

What a funny kid! What a sleepy kid. He loves his sleep (most of the time) and is really good about naps and bedtime! Sorry to brag! He is a great kid.

Yum Yum!

I made these a while ago for a friends baby shower. They are so yummy and cute as well. I wanted to make them cupcake pops, but since it was my first attempt, I just made cupcake balls. To find out how to make them and see lots of cute cupcake pops go to bakerella.blogspot.com.

Be A Builder

Builders
I saw them tearing a building down,
A gang of men in a busy town.
With a yo heave ho and a lusty yell,
They swung a beam and the sidewall fell.
I asked the foreman if these men were as skilled
As those he would hire if he were to build.
He laughed and said, "Oh, no indeed,
Common labor is all I need.
For they can wreck in a day or two,
What builders have taken years to do."
So I asked myself, as I went my way,
Which of these roles am I to play?
Am I the builder, who works with care,
Measuring life by the rule and square;
Or am I the wrecker who walks the town,
Content in the role of tearing down?

Little Helper Part 2

Previously I wrote about how Carter put all of the silverware away in the drawer and likes to help clean up. I finally got some pictures of him helping with the laundry and dishes. He did this all on his own!

He put every piece of clothing from one basket into the other....

Then put a load of clothes into the washer....

Then took the dishes out of the dishwasher and lined them all up....

Put all the silverware in the drawer....

Was soooo pleased with himself......

What a great little helper!

Washington DC

Much Needed

Sunday my hubby and I went to Layton and stayed at the Hilton so that Bevin could attend a convention for work the next day. It was so wonderful! Gma and Gpa Myers kept Carter so we were able to have a little "us" time. I slept in while Bev went to talk business, and after we went to eat at Famous Dave's. Yum! It was definately some much needed R&R! Thanks Bev and Mom and Dad!

Little Helper

So on Saturday morning we wanted to sleep in and Carter did not. So we were just laying in bed with Carter jumping all over us. Then he ran out and a minute later we hear what sounds like silverware banging together. He used to play with it a lot and take it and hide it places. So Bevin went to the kitchen and saw Carter putting silverware in to the drawer. Then he sees the dishwasher open and no silverware in it. He asks if I put it away, I ask if he put it away, we both say NO! Carter watched me put the silverware away and thought he wanted to do it too. It was not in the right spot but it was in the right drawer. He was so proud of himself. What a good little helper.

Sara Needs....

I saw this on facebook and since I don't have anything else to post I thought this would be fun!

This one's REALLY easy! Type your first name followed by the word "needs" into Google then post the 10 things that you need from the links that show up....

1. Sara needs a loving, playful home. Check, Carter is always playful and gives me plenty of loving with his hugs and kisses!

2. Sara needs your opinion on parents sleeping in your bed. Um weird if you are all in the bed at the same time. Actually my mom, sis, and I all jump in to watch movies, so much fun!

3. Sara needs your help in the "perfect" shot. I am always looking for tips for picture taking. I take way too many pics trying to get the "perfect" shot!

4. Sara needs something more then the well-established love of her companion. Not true. At the moment this is all I want and need. I miss my hubby!

5. Sara needs YOU! When my hubby is gone I do need all of my friends and family. Thanks, love you all!

6. Sara needs replies. This would be great. I love having comments to read!

7. Sara needs time. Time for what? I would love more time with my hubby on the weekends. It always goes by way too fast!

8. Sara needs to drop a few lbs. So true! If this is not a sign then I don't know what is. Sad:( Even the computer is telling me I need to. Great.

9. Sara needs paint. This would have applied yesterday. I just bought some and finished a table we got at the DI. It turned out great. I also painted my mailbox and some frames.

10. Sara need to get her life back and establish herself as the person in charge. This pretty much sums it all up.

I tag Emily, Jill, Katie, Lindsey N, Heather, Jen, Amanda, Leah, Sarah, and Lyndsey W.
Tag 10 people and leave them a comment. Have Fun!

Valentine Cookies

We made some yummy sugar cookies and Carter decorated his very own. He had a hard time eating it though cause every time he went to pick it up he got frosting on his finger and had to lick it off. Eventually he gave in to the mess and enjoyed the cookie!

USU Hey! Aggies all the way!

What a big boy!

Bevin has wanted to go to a USU game for the past couple weeks, and this weekend we finally went! I think that Bevin was even more excited to take Carter to the game. I was not as excited. I didn't think Carter would do well or last very long. But I was very wrong. Carter loved every minute of the game. He was in a daze at first just watching everything. Then he got excited when he saw the ball and caught on quickly to the clapping and yelling. He was such a good kid! I love both my boys and had a fun weeknd with them!

Carter Gallops

He just started doing this wierd gallop or skipping like thing. He has so much energy!

In the Doghouse!

I cannot believe what just happened. I was just standing in the playroom hitting the ping pong balls with Carter. Then suddenly I felt something warm on my leg. And it was not coming from me. I looked down and saw that the bottom leg of my jean was all wet! EEEWWW! Cooper looked at me and knew he was in trouble. I really cannot believe that just happened. Cooper is a pretty good dog and never has that problem. I guees my leg looked like a good spot. I let him out plenty today, though Bevin claims I neglect him. Whatever made him decide to do that, it was gross and it better not happen again.

Neat Freak

Just a funny thing that I have noticed about Carter lately. He is already a neat freak and he is not even 2 years old yet. He always says oh-oh, if someting falls over, sticks to his hands, is a mess, etc... So yesterday he walked past a drawer in my room and some clothes were hanging out a little. He stopped, opened the drawer, pushed the clothes inside and then shut the drawer. I just watched in amazement and laughed. Then today he got a few wipes out and started cleaning everything off. Bevin says he gets it from me. My moms said I hated to be dirty and would not crawl on the floor if there were crumbs! But Bevin is a bit of a neat freak too! Sorry Carter, guess you didn't have a chance. It's not that bad of a habit to have.

More Carter!

What a Dobie Gillis!

These are for you Em! Miss ya!
