We are alive...

We have been MIA for a while. Most know because of Facebook that we moved. Its been a crazy busy month! We decided literally last minute we wanted to move because we either had to sign another year on our contract or move out. Most places here in Logan Require a year contract. So we decided to move on to much BIGGER and better not apartments but a townhouse. It is quite a bit more than our last place, but we decided that is the price we have to pay to live in a nice area that is big enough for our growing family. The new house is fantastic. Located at the south end of Logan in a large large neighborhood that is chalk full of young families like ourselves. We have also been up to other fun stuff. I haven't been taking many pictures with our actual camera, but that is what is so awesome about a camera phone! Sucky Pictures, but hey I documented!

So here is a quick re-cap

The move.....
 This is our new townhouse. Its a very large 2 bedroom 1.5 bath townhouse. It has a HUGE yard for hayden to play in, and a garage!!! Needless to say we have a lot of storage. Which we needed
 Here is the family Room


 We actually have a food storage room!!! It is also our Laundry Room

Our very Large kitchen. The perk to this is that we have an actual dining area. Every house we have lived in our table is always pushed up against a wall because of the lack of space. Not in this place. No sir! We also love that it has an island! Its great cause Hayden loves to eat there, and I can talk to him and sing with him while I prepare meals.


 The kiddo's room. See all that space!!1 Yeah its amazing! There is also a walk in closet that has built in's. Each kid has their own rack to hang clothes on. I love the organization!
Our other rooms aren't quite decorated you will have to wait for those. Nothing to exciting just bathrooms and our room.

 This is a very large pond not even a block from our house. There are tons of ducks and fish that are always hungry!
Like I said early tons of little kids for Hayden to play with. This has honestly been the biggest thing to get used too! We have kids knocking on our door 5-6 times a day asking if Hayden can come out and play. Its awesome cause all of the kids are 2+ years older than Hayden, but are still willing to play and put up with his 2 year old behavior.

The movies.

We took Hayden to see his first movie at the theater! I decided to take him to the move "Brave." I can't believe how well he did! He just sat there on our laps and didn't budge. The only time he talked was when he wanted popcorn, a drink, or to comment on what was happening in the movie. He was awesome! He talked about it for days. We are definitely going again soon!


First haircut at a salon.




I am constantly fighting Hayden to get a haircut. It usually takes me an hour or more to do it because he squirms, screams and just plain freaks out. I saw a place that was specifically for kids, and thought I would try it out. It was pretty spendy. 11 bucks for a stinking haircut, but it was worth it! It took about 20 minutes max! He got to sit in a fire truck, Watch Elmo, and got a sucker and a balloon afterwards. He cried at first, but eventually didn't mind and actually thought it was awesome.
I won't ever be cutting his hair again as long as this place was in business. We made a real date out of it and got Italian Ice afterwards with frozen custard inside. Hayden kept telling his dad for at least 2 weeks about his haircut date with mom. We are going to make it a traditional mommy n' Hayden outing once little girl gets here. She is not invited. She gets to stay with daddy.


Lately Hayden and I have enjoyed napping on the couch together. He tells me straight up he wants to snuggle and nap with mommy. I don't mind one bit!


St. George
I think I have more St. George photos on my actual camera, but don't count me on it. These are just a few random ones we got while visiting my daddy at work. Its traditional must do every time we go there. 1. Cause we like to visit. 2. They have thee best toys that are good quality, and we get an awesome discount. 3. Because he has a new squirrel friend we had yet to meet.
 Meet Fred. She likes to eat peanuts straight out of your hand. She will even crawl up your legs. She is pretty funny.
 Stephanie calls this shot the IFA maternity shot. hahahaha Really I just found thee most comfortable position that I could breathe in on the cement because it was cold, and I was very swollen.
 Remember when I said Fred climbs up your legs... Its pretty funny. My dad is now trying to get her used to being pet.
 I dyed and trimmed my hair. A definite must do before I deliver.

JUST RANDOM.
We were hanging up our clothes, and I told Ron it would be cool if he could tie  his ties that he was hanging up all at once. He had 5 in his hands. I can't believe he actually got it to tie decently. 

Finished the baby bedding. Apart from her quilt. I will wait on that a bit. I need to relax a while. I love the pink white and gray! It turned out so cute!!! Hayden's bedding is striped as well, and I am going to throw a couple of light blue throw pillows on it for more color. Very Cliche' to do pink and blue, but I love how it turned out! This is by far my favorite sewing project I have ever done.

There ya have it folks. That has been life the last few weeks. Stay tuned for the 4th of july post. I actually busted the camera out for that one.

Also baby girl is due in 2.5 weeks. The doctor said I am about 1 cm Dilated and just over 60% effaced. Hopefully I am way farther now since that was well over a week ago. The house is pretty much done. I just need to clean it well. Then I will just kick back and relax till she gets here. Hopefully its early!

I love her bedding. It turned out so cute! Love the color combo. I'm so nervous to take Owen to a movie. We haven't taken Owen to a movie since Megamind. He was running around like a mad man and drinking other people's drinks. I was mortified. Maybe we'll try it again...
