"Mom, DON'T TELL ME NO!"

So long time no post, eh? Well I do have an explaition for you. My computer died. It had terrible words like 'hard drive death' and 'all those pictures that Devin said to back up... ya goners' or something to that effect. It was bad news. So without pictures this is what we have been up to.

-We had Christmas.... haha I can't believe it has been this long. It was rockin' to say the least. Kitchens, all things Dora and lots of cutlery (saws, kives, sewing scissors, rotary blades etc.)
-We are in a volleyball with league with some cool people in our ward. We play 4 man and it is super fun
-Casen learned to crawl. I knew this day would come, but I was cool with him taking his sweet little time. I always think my house is baby proof until they are crawling and they eat rings and play in the toilet and eat scraps off the floor. I guess he takes the place of a dog or something.
-My sweet children don't really have breathing problems anymore. This may sound small, but I was really worried about them. People need to breath and these kids weren't breathing very well and it freaked me out. We got a rockin' new vacuum and bye-bye breathing problems.
-I got to see my Grandparents. I really love my grandparents and they moved to St. George so I don't get to see them as often as I would like.
-We had our first annual Epic Valentines Day breakfast. We had heart shaped sprinkle pancakes with warm berries in homemade syrup, pink scrambled eggs, pink milk, candles, heart plates etc. you get the picture. Oh and I have a pictures but with no computer... ya.
- I started my aerobics class again. I love exercise and I get to be the boss and make people follow me and I make them sore. I love it.
-We finished Reagan's loft bed. The kids' room is super small so Devin built her a loft bed that is up high so Casen's crib can fit nicely underneath. She loves it because it has a ladder- seriously, what kid doesn't like a ladder.
- Devin has been saving up for his baby. It is a 55'' LED Smart TV, super awesome and amazing...at least that is what he tells me. Oh I think there is a 240 hz or something in there somewhere. To say the least, we are lovin us some sports. And the best part is we paid cash. Wahoo. Which bring me to the next one...
-Dave Ramsey is my best friend. He has changed our financial life and I am eternally greatful. If you want to be financially awesome then check out Dave or talk to me. I am practially a walking billboard. (kinda random but whatever)
-I had a moment where i didn't know if I should laugh or cry or punish, so I said nothing.
Reagan and I were at the grocery store and she was mad because I wouldn't buy Dora icecream or something. Since she thew a fit, she didn't get a treat at check out either and by the time we got to the car she was ticked. I came around to put her in the car and I told her to get it. She looked at me with a death stare and said, "Mom, you don't tell me no!" The guy getting into the car next to us looked at me with this 'oh boy' sort of stare. I was so shocked that I didn't know whether I should laugh or parent. I laughed and got in the car. Don't judge me on my lack of parenting skills in this instance; it was way too funny.
