NO MORE TONSILS

So Tuesday Corbyn had his tonsils and adenoids out. The doctors said that his adenoids were taking up 90% more room than they should. Anyone that knows, Corbyn snored really bad and that is why I took him to te doctor cause it was turning into sleep apnea. It was aweful. Already he is snoring less and its only been two days. They say is takes a while before the swellign goes down and they are 100% . He did really well though. He was in and out in 30 minutes and has his good and bad moments. We are really glad he had it done. He already sleeps sounder.

A New Addition!!


So for the last few months we have been thinking about getting another dog so that Rusty our Golden Retriever would have someone to play with so on Monday I went and picked up our new puppy, Layla. She is purebread chocolate lab and is 9 weeks old. She is so sweet. She is doing pretty well with the potty training but if anyone has any good advice share away. Rusty loves her and they spend most of their time wrestling. Corbyn is very protective of her. All I can say is its nice to have another girl in the house. She seems to be adjusting really well and I think Lance actually likes her!!!(Lance is adjusting to having a dog as a pet, this is foreign to him. Here are some cute pics
Rusty and Layla taking another nap. Yes Rusty did get shaved at the groomers and they shaved him way too short and left his leg hair long so now he looks like a poodle, greyhound mix. Talk about ugly, its not quite what I asked for, I cant wait till it grows out.
Here she is snuggling with corbyn, she loves to snuggle
wrestling with Rusty

San Fransisco or Bust!!!!

Well the last 2 weeks have been quite busy for our family. We left for San Fransisco about 2 weeks ago and Lance and I were there for 3 days on a business trip. Yes only lance and I went grandma nutz watched them in Vegas. This was our first trip without our kids, and it was lots of fun. We got to go to this long 4 hour 5 course dinner show that was a mix of mystere and moulin rouge. It would have been really fun if it were only 2 hours, but 4 hours was too much. we went shopping and walked alot. Most the time was spent in meetings but when we had free time we went sightseeing as much as possible. We were right on the warf so we could see alcatraz and the golden gate bridge. It was pretty cool. Stupid me I left my camera home so I bought a disposable one and now I just need to get them developed so there might be pics soon.

First time away

OK so Friday my friend and I decided we wanted to go to this Starving Artist art sale in ST George, and lucky us, our husbands decided they would stay home with the kids and we could go stay overnight and check out the sale on Saturday. It was the first time I have been away from my kids overnight, except for when I was having a baby, that doesn't count. It was so much fun. It kind of was weird though, nobody to chase, or drag to the car or clean up after at dinner, no we got to sit at dinner and we were actually okay waiting 30 minutes to get to our seat cause all we did was just sit. We had tons of fun and I got three really great paintings for almost nothing, its an awesome sale. I did miss my kids and my husband, it was good to go back home. We are planning on making it a regular thing, whether our husbands want us to or not.

Running

OK, so one of my goals this year is to run a 10k and maybe a 1/2 marathon. I have been"training"(I use that word loosely) for about a month and a 1/2 and yesterday morning I ran 5 miles!!!! This is huge for me because I dont think I have ever ran 5 miles in my life. So I am almost to my first goal of 6 miles, thats less than half to my second goal. I dont know if I will make it to that one. Just my luck I'd get knocked up before I get there.

THE BIG 30!!!!

Happy Birthday Lance !!!! He just turned the big 30 and he was not so excited about it. I decided to throw him a surprise birthday party. We had a bunch of friends over and Lance got so many cool gifts....... His mom and dad gave him a snore reduction pillow(for anyone that knows Lance, he tends to snore a bit). His sister gave him an enema and hemroid cream. Since he is thirty he is now an old man.


Heres Corbyn posing for the camera. Yeah he a little white trash without his shirt on but thats how we roll.
Heres our family with the birthday boy. Dont worry, Lance also got himslef an ipod, so he acutally got one real present. Lucky guy!!


He also got a really nice cake that was made with love by some of our friends
I do believe that he had the coolest birthday ever.

makin cookies

The other day I was making chocolate chip cookies and Corbyn was playing with his playdough in the dining room and he came over to me while I was baking the cookies and handed me this tray that is the top of his playdough carton and had made me some cookies all by himself and put little round balls from another toy as the chocolate chips. I swear I gave him zero help, I didnt even know he was making them. They are so dang cool. He is my little artist. Now I can add baker to his list.
These are his gingerbread men that he made after he made me cookies. Notice the eyes, they are the same balls from the chocolate chip cookies. He's got quite an imagination.

Corbyn and Blake eating lunch


Blake was eating a sugar cookie and the frosting ended up in his hair instead of his mouth
what a poser!!

The other day Corbyn and Blake and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for lunch and corbyn managed to get more on his face than in his belly and Blake got more in his hair than anywhere else. Corbyn realized I was taking pictures and decided to start posing, thus the very lovely pictures.

Saying Prayers

Ok so lately we have been trying to get Corbyn to say the prayer at dinner, and his new thing to say when we ask him to say it is "I already said it last morning..." What else can you do but laugh. You know he had to have learned that from someone. If anyone has any suggestions for getting him to say them, let me know please.
