Rain, rain, go away...

So is it Spring or what??  it is almost June and it is cold and rainy everyday!!  I don't think my kids will ever be able to go swimming! I am so tired of the cold weather. I want to break out the shorts already.

Riann's Pre-school Graduation

It is so sad they grow up so fast...Oh wait she still has to do another year of pre-school. HAHA

Play Time!

Riann loves to play outside. She would live out there if we let her.  This is the first thing she wanted to do after getting her dance pictures taken.

Hi Again

I didn't get any comments on my post about Cole's epilepsy, so again I say...Please go to Morgan's blog That is on this page under -My friends- and click on her name..then scroll down to the part that is titled "Slide show" and click on the picture.  It is truly a wake up call.  So go do it...NOW.  Thanks and have a great day!

Kids are so funny

The other day Riann asked if she was ever going to be in my tummy again like she was before she was born. (She comes up with the weirdest things)  I explained to her that mommy would NEVER have a baby in her tummy again and that she will just get older and bigger and one day she will have her own baby in her tummy.  She then said, "will it be Dominic in my tummy?" I told her no, (trying not to laugh) and explained it would be her OWN baby and not her brother in her tummy.  She then said "well, I am still naming my baby Dominic then"  it is so funny how their little minds work and the things they worry about.  They keep me on my toes EVERYDAY!

Epilepsy

    My friend Morgen babysits this little boy named Cole.  He is adorable!  They have been raising money for his surgery and she has a video on her blog about it that everyone needs to see.  Her blog is under my "friends" click on Morgan.  Also go to Cole's blog www.beatingepilepsy.blogspot.com.  I feel so bad for this little guy and I hope that his surgery will help.  (Make sure you watch the video on Morgan's blog, I cried through the whole thing.)  I love this little guy and I haven't even met him.  It makes you realize how you need to could your blessings everyday.  It would be so hard to have your kids go trough that.  And I truly feel sorry for his mom, and she seems to be doing amazing dealing with it.  Way better then I could I'm sure.

Success!!!

I am pleased to report that the big boy bed was a success.  After having such a difficult time with Riann, I was worried Dominic would be the same.  He is so eager to be like the big kids, and dad I think he thinks it is cool.  He has slept in it for two nights now and is napping in it right now!  It is so cute.  I will post a pic. of him sleeping in it sometime soon.  I posted his crib in KSL and I already sold it!! No more baby things at this house!  It is kind of bitter sweet.  My kids are getting so big which is fun, but on the other hand a little sad.  His room looks so cute with the crib out now.  I am soooo happy that he is so easy going.  This is HEAVEN for me!  Riann would not sleep in her big girl bed forever!  But so far Dominic has proved with everything that he is a much more easy going kid than Ri. (thank you) I love Ri...but I am very thankful for a break!

Big Boy Bed

Dominic got a new bed. (he hasn't slept in it yet. I'm sure I will have more to say about it later) We might try to see if he wants to sleep in it tonight.  He has been pretending to sleep in it today. haha

African Cats

We took the kids to see the new Disney Nature movie called "African Cats"  We knew it would be hard with Dominic but we tried anyway.  Each of the kids were able to pick at a treat at Shopko before the movie.  They were excited about that.  The movie was really cool.  The shots that they got of the animals were amazing!  It is incredible that anything survives out there!  It is a must see.  Dominic and Ri got bored in it, but Tyler loved it. So maybe rent it if you have little ones.
