Now that's talent

Oh this boy and his binkie.

I only allow him to have it for nap and bedtime. The other day he found where
 I placed two binkies and came to show me his trick while giggling mischievously. 

Little stinker.

Testosterone Wins

Oh yeah...I'm pregnant! Someone needs to give me a good kick in the pants for not keeping up with this blog. Now I have so much catching up to do. I am suppose to be writing a talk for Sunday but I am procrastinating and blogging instead. Maybe if I had important things like a Sunday talk to procrastinate then I would blog a lot more:)

Last week we found out that we will be adding another little BOY to our family in May. We are so excited. I had a feeling early on that this one would be a boy. I am happy for Weston because he will have a brother close in age and a little buddy to hang out with. I am excited to decorate their room (they will be sharing for a while) covered in blue, trucks, and all things "boy."

 As far as the pregnancy goes, I was so lucky to only have mild morning sickness and fatigue that went away after the first trimester. With Weston I was not sick at all and didn't even feel pregnant. I am lucky my body has taken both pregnancies so well because I know it can be so much worse.

At the moment it is hard to imagine loving another little guy as much as I love Wes, but I am sure when I meet him, I will love them both so much. I can't wait for him to get here!

"Elp me!"

This morning I was in the laundry room when I heard "elp me! elp me!" I went into the room Wes was playing in to find him not there anymore.  I thought it was odd since I just heard him so I continued to search the basement. No Weston. I ran upstairs calling his name, beginning to be a little worried that something fell on him or he was tangled up in something. After not finding him upstairs I ran back to the same room and heard a muffled "elp me" and realized it was coming from his little toybox. I opened it to find this!

 Poor little guy climbed in there, shut the door, and couldn't get it back open. He was laughing/crying at the same time. I think he thought he was funny but that it really scared him too.

I don't think he'll be climbing in there again...or maybe he will. Next time I'll know where to look!

Thanksgiving happened

I'm a little late with this post but Thanksgiving came and went and we had a great time. 

We spent the weekend with the Emmett's in Fillmore. These two ladies are the best cooks ever:)

It was fun to see Jeff again. 

A good majority of Thanksgiving day consisted of playing with Jeff and Kyle's old Legos. I think Kyle and Jeff had more fun with them than anyone. Weston loved them too though.

Then we went over to grandpa Turners and saw the horses.

Weston was not thrilled, and little scared of them.

And what would a trip to Fillmore be without shooting stuff...

Go JhoBrea, go JhoBrea...

Taking a walk with great grandpa.

All in all, a really fun Thanksgiving!

Getting Cold

I am so not ready for winter.

Yesterday we took advantage of the "warmer" weather and went on a walk.

 Stopping every second to pick up leaves, sticks, and rocks of course.

Weston's Photoshoot

This is my sorry attempt at photography and editing:)  I took some pics of Weston in Logan and I think they turned out pretty cute. How did I get such a cute kid??

Moab Getaway

Last weekend we dropped Wes off at his grandparents and spent a few days in Moab. It rained on us Saturday morning, but the rest of the weekend was "jacket weather", but pretty nice.

First hike of the day was Delicate Arch. We were soaked by the time we got up there. 

I love hiking. It was such a nice break to be outside and see all the sites. Arches is a pretty remarkable place. I've always loved it.

 We saw some other arches too. Double arch.

 and the Window Arches.

 Then we headed over to the canyon lands which was also very beautiful. 

 (He's pondering....)

 Canyon-lands.

 It was such a fun trip.

Halloween

Halloween was a lot of fun this year, full of games, family, and goodies. We attended the annual Krogh Halloween party at my sister Katie's home in Logan. Weston was so cute in his little firefighter costume. 

I have never been the type to get really excited to dress up for Halloween. This years ensemble was a last -minute search through my mother's Halloween bin resulting in a "baby" costume. Oh my goodness. I can't believe I'm posting a photo of myself in an adult onsie. My mother told me that she actually wore this yellow beauty to bed every night when she was 13 years old. I got a crack out of that. Speaking of cracks, she must of been a lot shorter than I at thirteen because the onsie was riding up mine for the duration of the party. Just a mild wedgie, but nothing to ruin the fun of the party. 

Kyle was "white trash". 

Other costumes included, witch and doctor.

Princess Leah.

baseball player, scary person in black, candy land,

little cowboy, more candy land characters, and a butterfly.  The donut eating contest was a hit.

As well as all the other fun games we played.

 The babies.

On Halloween night we took Weston around the neighboorhood for trick-or treating. As soon as he realized he was getting loads of candy he was running door to door.  

Sister Time!

We spent all of last week in Arizona visiting my sister and her two adorable kids. I know Wes was so happy to have someone to play with every single day. My other sister came too with her little girl so it was fun to all spend time together. 

It was Weston's first plane ride. I think I was overly nervous about taking him on a plane. I thought he would get a little anxious confined to sitting on my lap the whole time, but he actually did really well.  He kept saying "TRUCK, TRUCK...WOAAH" although I tried to teach him we weren't on a truck we were on an airplane. He still thought it was cool.

Here we are just before take off. He had a sucker so he was all good:)

Once we got to Arizona we did all sorts of fun things. 

We went to the zoo.

 Hung out at the park.

Smashed water balloons out on the deck and played outside.

 Played with babies Claire and Avery.

And other events that were not documented with photos.... just hung out and talked, played egyptian rat-killer, ate lots of yummy food, went to a really cool ghost-town, went to the mall, did a couple crafts, just relaxed, watched a movie, and cooked yummy dinners. 

 It was so fun to spend a week with my sisters.
