HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADDISON!!

ADDISON'S 4TH BIRTHDAY!!

Addison's birthday really isn't until Monday (Shout out to Lis!) but since Austin's was last week she's been driving us crazy so we gave up and celebrated it a little early (we did the same thing last year!) It was extremely windy and we were going to go to Thanksgiving Point so she could ride the ponies, but we talked her into going to Discovery Gateway instead since it was indoors. Then we had cake & ice cream with Grandma & Grandpa Cheney and opened presents. She got a Tinker Bell play set, a Cinderella barbie, a puppy playhouse, Lil petshop art set from G. Jensen's, and Belle polly pockets. She peeked at her presents last week so nothing was a surprise the little stinker! For weeks she has been saying she wanted a Barbie Island Princess cake and the day before she changed her mind and just wanted a pink barbie cake but I had already gotten everything for the island princess cake so we compromised with a pink "skirt".

A few things about Addie"
* she is my princess girlie girl
* doesn't mind having her hair done, loves to put on make up (its fake!), will only wear dresses
*changes 20 million times a day
*hates to get dirty
*hates to be wet (dries her hands until they are raw)
*loves her ballet class
*Fav. movies right now are Enchanted and Phantom of the Opera
*loves broccoli ( we were in the store the other day and I caught her munching on broccoli right off the shelf!

Its drama all day but we wouldn't have it any other way!

OUR WEEKEND

The weather was GORGEOUS this weekend so we took advantage! On Saturday their was the annual Blue and White scrimmage where BYU plays against each other. Then on Sunday we went to the Great Salt Lake and I forgot my camera (ARGH!!!!) and then today Dave took a PTO since it was going to be 80, & we were going to take the kids to the zoo, but it was soooo windy!! So we took them to Discovery Gateway instead.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUSTIN!!

AUSTIN'S 2ND BIRTHDAY!

My baby is 2!!! Today we celebrated Austin's birthday with some of his aunts and uncles. I made him a baseball cake sitting on top of a "dirty" pitchers mound (in case you couldn't tell! It didn't come out the way I was hoping but then again they never do!) he got a riding toy, Thomas the train playset and the barn play set.

A few things about Austin:
* he is extremely active! he loves to do somersaults
* he loves balls and shooting hoops in his BYU basketball hoop in his room
* he still sucks his darn finger and still adores his blanket
* he loves playing with his sisters and will go to them if I won't do what he wants me to do
* he loves the movie Cars, Toy Story, and Thomas the Train
* he will play in his room for hours with the door shut

And most of all he's adorable and we love him very much!
