Baby's Room and Fun with Cousins

I bought this dresser for $30. It didn't look too bad and is a really sturdy dresser. However, it needed a good sanding, a fresh coat of paint and new handles. I love it!
Our favorite babysitter for Parker and Jordan got me the cute rod iron owl. I love it as well.
I made this cover for our ugly but very sturdy and practical table. I am excited that I can store things under the table but no one will be able to see them. The adorable owl pillow on the chair was a gift from my talented friend Joette.
Joette also helped me make the cute blocks. We are still in the process of finishing some decor for over the crib. Stay tuned for that!

We were delighted to have Jonathan's sister Amy and her family come to visit for a whole week. We had fun at the zoo, the pool, a slash fountain, and just hanging out.


Parker
Jordan looks like he has been crying. Sadly, he got sunscreen in his eye right when we got there. Poor kid was in pain for the next few hours. He was a good sport as his eye watered, swelled, and stung. Notice that I am standing in front of the elephant for Jordan's picture. I didn't realize the elephant sprayed water. Just as I took the picture it sprayed me. I screamed and many people laughed. For Parker's picture I stood off to the side.



Evelyn is very much the observer. She is content to just watch.
Parker and Jordan want to do everything like Olivia. The just adore their cousins.

Triathlons and bubbles!

Just playing outside in the morning and they were too cute not to bring out the camera.

Jonathan and his buddy Jeff finished the Salem Triathlon Saturday the 4th. Jonathan finished 2nd in his age group. I am not sure out of how many but at least 20 people.
Parker
I have tons of pictures of Jordan because he kept asking me to take his picture. I got some really cute ones.




This is probably one of Parker's biggest smiles ever.

Starting the swimming portion. I am not sure where he is out there but he is in this group.

April and May of 2011

Parker and Jordan took a tumbling class while I taught a dance class at Santaquin city center. Their parent's night made Jonathan and I so proud. We actually ate ice cream before dinner that night because we were such proud parents of our 3 year olds. Check out the videos at the very bottom!




Grandma O's bird. Avery is the bird girl. She carries it around every where.




Jordan got a black eye in Idaho. He would tell people, "See my blue eye." We all thought it looked pretty cool.

I just think they are super cute.

Leslie is 25 weeks in this picture and I am 30 weeks. I definitely have a much larger belly.

Daddy took the boys on the fathers and sons camp out. I had a free night which I spent organizing, cleaning, and getting things ready for our new baby. By 10 o'clock I missed my family. I always dream for a day or night all by myself and then once I have one, I just miss my family.

May 6th we had a fun out at the playground and Mom finally remembered to bring out her camera.

Love this one of Jordan.

I just don't know what to do with these smiles. Below are Parker's goofy faces.

Happy Birthday to Lucy. Parker and Jordan play so well with our neighbor Lucy. We are lucky to have them as neighbors.

Jordan's hands were dyed for days.

I don't know if this is inappropriate, but it is such a cute picture.
