Hair Cut?

I asked peter yesterday if he thought it was time for Alex to have a hair cut, he sternly replied, NO! I told him that if he wanted to keep it this length then we needed to manage it better as well as Melynn.

Knives & Spies

Warning: Read at your own RISK!

I wish I could say he was sleep talking, but he wasn't.
My husband is going to be the weirdest funny old grandpa ever. If I die first I'm going to have a blast watching him hide hundreds of knives through out the house and pretend spies are coming to get him. This all came because we were flipping through channels and he stopped on the Knife home shopping channel. They just had a lot of like 336 knives for $280. He went on to discribe where he would hide these knives, for example: velcroed to the inside of the toilet tank, under the kitchen table, in the fireplace, in his computer. A few of Peter's best quotes from the conversation are: "When the zombies come your going to be glad that we have that many knives.", "We could give my dad and brother some of the knives. They did almost give each other Machetes for Christmas" (Actually Eric did give my Father-in-law one for Christmas), "Take that Martha Stewart I'm cutting carrots with a battle axe.", "If I had a Samurai sword I'd use it to cut cheese, just because I can.".

Now he wants a cane that has a sword that comes out of it and also has a taser built in. Awesome. My Grandchildren are doomed. I'm pretty sure I will die at Peter's accidental hand.

A little glimpse into the psyche of the man I married. I most certainly comes from his dad, when we visited him this week, he proudly showed us a book he checked out from the library titled "The Zombie Survival Guide".

I Love My Husband!

Another Mellyism

Tonight Wendi was getting frustrated because she couldn't find her purse, I told her to calm down. Melly of course had to chime in too with, "cow down mommy, cow down"

My Creative Side

We bought a cute head band for myself last weekend. It looked easy enough to make on my own. Melly has been driving me crazy daily to play with mine. So I made her one. I love it. It turned out really cute.

Taking Steps

The last few weeks have been fun. I think we are going to have another kid that walks before they are one. Alex is steadily becoming more and more brave. He can now take 2 or 3 steps before he gives up and resorts to crawling. Crawling is so much easier and he definitely knows it. He always has to be moving and be right where Melynn is. He absolutely adores her (I'm sure it goes both ways). Every morning when we go to get them out of bed we find Melynn in his crib with him. I hope that old crib is able to support 50+ lbs.

More Sleep Talk From Wendi

This morning I got up before Wendi and got the kids ready for the day. I came back in to wake Wendi up before I left for work. The following conversation ensued:

Peter: "I took care of the kids, I'm leaving for work, love you"
Wendi: (not completely awake) "Not anyone famous though"
Peter: "What?"
Wendi: "Not like Phyllis"
Peter: "No I guess not, just the kids not Phyllis or anyone famous"
Wendi: "Oh"
Peter: "Okay, love you"

Audrey Deborah Elizabeth Reese

On December 18th at 10:04 AM we welcomed our baby niece into the world. She weighs 7 lbs 9.6 oz and she is 20.5" long and you can't see from the photo but she's got red hair (just like her Mom and Dad). I was waiting to get a really cute pic from my Sister before posting, but instead of waiting I stole it of her facebook. Take a look at Beautiful Audrey Deborah Elizabeth Reese. Wow, She is Beautiful (how can you argue with a picture like that). But come on really did you expect anything else from my family. Way to go Veronica and Aaron.

The Beautiful Salt Lake Temple

The photographer at my Sister-in-law's wedding took this pictures of the Salt Lake Temple. It's my favorite and it's the temple that we were sealed in. These pictures are absolutely breath-taking.




Congradulations!

My Beautiful Sister-in-law got married on December 18th. She looked absolutely Gorgeous! Congrats Katie and Matt. We are so happy for you!
