New Chairs



We got Brad this chair last week and he loves it. He is a very social baby. He never wants to be alone and always wants to see what is going on. So now he can see us better. He is very smiley and has started to giggle a little especially when daddy plays with him. He also loves it when Wesley comes to play and talk with him. I love to listen to the two of them try to talk. We love having him around.




We also have a chair that Wesley has been trying out. Yes, we are potty training. Some days are better than others but we are working on it. Any suggestions ???

Portland Childrens Museum

For Presidents Day we had to go out and celebrate because Orrin didn't have School!!! Yeah!!! We went to the Portland Children's Museum and Orrin and Wes had a blast.




Orrin did get a little bit of pratice on his day off on an alligator with a huge tooth brush.

Valenties Day with My Boys




For valentines day I wanted to make a nice dinner for my boys. We ate shrimp & scallops, 2x baked potatoes, and asparagus with hollandaise sauce. Yummy! It was so nice to eat at home with Orrin and the boys.











We asked Wes to take a picture of us and this is what we got.



Then we had story time before bed.



I loved spending time with my 3 valentines.

Snow Day


Yesterday it snow for the first time for us here in Oregon. During Christmas break they had a huge storm with lots of snow but we missed it all while we were in AZ. Wesley and I were so excited to get outside and play in it. We waited until Bradley fell asleep and then went for it. We had snow ball fights, made snow angels, and made a mini snow man. Then we came in and had hot coco. By the late afternoon it was all gone. It was so much fun.

3 day weekend!!!




Last week Orrin had a 3 day weekend (MLK day) so we decided to do something fun on Monday. A few of our plans didn't work out so we ended up checking out this place we had heard about. The place is call Oaks Park and it has be here in Portland for over 100 years. In the summer it is a little fair that has rides and games but in the winter the roller rink is the only thing opened. It was fun to watch Wes try roller skating for the first time. He didn't last very long but he said it was lots of fun.

Our Primary Boy!


When we got back home to Oregon Wesley got to go to Primary for the first time. He just made the cut off by 2 days. He did so good. He sat down in his seat and said "bye mom". But it was way harder for me to leave him. I had to stand out side peaking through the door to make sure he was ok, and of course he did great. When Orrin went to pick him up from class he didn't want to leave. I can't believe we have a child in primary already. WOW!!
