Once Upon a Time I posted....

Hello. I just want to see if anyone reads this still. If you do, please comment below. Thanks.

A title?

We are just super busy doing who-knows-what.

Conference

I have to admit I love the Claytons. So listening to L. Whitney Clayton give a talk on how to have a marvelous marriage was fabulous!! It was such a nice little list of things to do to have a great marriage (which is my goal). His brother was my OBGYN who delivered Levi and I just love that family. The talk will eventually be found at .

Mini post... la la la

Dylan is by far my most helpful child. Who knew? Riley needs to see an eye doctor because one eye droops and apparently doesn't do what it should (as found out during an eye exam at school). Hannah is addicted to Mickey Mouse clubhouse.... it's the first thing she asks for when she wakes up in the morning. I've gone a whole 5 days without soda. I'm so proud. Levi is a reading super star. Matt is just a fabulous person and works a lot and works hard and we love him.

A F*A*B*U*L*O*U*S purchase...

I bought this "Wet 2 Straight" Hot Iron at Ulta for $24 (I had a coupon). It is AMAZING! My normally curly, frizzy hair was quickly transformed as I did the following: After showering I put John Frieda Frizz serum in my hair, proceeded to put on my makeup as my hair did it's kinky/curly thing, and then I busted out the hot iron (it's 2" wide) and had this straight hair within 5 minutes. I'm not even kidding or exaggerating on the speed in which my hair was dry and straight. Granted, it helps that my hair is incredibly thin, but still.... This product is life changing! Hooray!

Pink Cowboy Boots

Hannah got these spectacular real cowboy boots (size 7 wide toddler) from a dear friend of ours. They now fit her and she loves them!! She is so pleased to wear them. She ran around the house and had to show all the boys (Daddy included). She insisted on wearing a dress with them instead of pants. I love how girly she can be.

Never a dull moment being the Mom!

Hannah was throwing up on Friday, I felt gross yesterday and today, and Dylan started throwing up today. How fun. See the picture of Levi mopping floors? He's getting pretty good. He's also been doing LOTS of chores lately because he bought some games for his itouch without permission and then lied about it. So he's earning those off (and still has a ways to go). Hannah is growing like a weed (the pretty weeds). She and Riley (age 3.5) wear the same size clothes. She had that cast on and when I went to put her pants on her (and shoes, too!) now that it's off she didn't fit in either the shoes or the pants. I changed up my favorite style of bows to make (pictured). It's always good to change things up. I also got back in a routine of going to the gym (or exercising with friends running outside) early in the morning. This has helped SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much. :-)
