Easter & Conference

Dustin has been potty training! Most days he goes without accidents, but when he wants attention or when he is lazy he has accidents. So work in progress, but pretty good for the first week. He does know what he's doing, it's just a matter of convincing him this is the thing to do.


The weather has been so nice we have enjoyed playing outside. We even went on a trip to Murray Park. The boys love to run around and enjoying nature! So it was fun times.



Last weekend we went to Dave's parent's house for an Easter egg hunt with the cousins. The boys had fun and found tons of eggs! Logan told me later Saturday he didn't know Papa hid eggs, he thought it was just the Easter Bunny.


Easter was a fabulous day too. We woke up and found baskets (Dustin ate so much candy that I had to put up the baskets), we went to church, enjoyed lunch/dinner, and went on a long walk. We stopped by a friend from the ward's house and the boys played with their boys for a while. The family have 3 boys (5, 3, and 18 months) and she's pregnant with a little girl too, so we have a lot in common, and they're just fun.




This week we've been getting back into the swing of things. Cleaning up from all the lack of cleaning potty training week, making more freezer meals, etc. I tried a few new freezer recipes and made a total of 18 dinners and freezer garlic bread. I want to have some tasty recipes on hand so we can fill up the freezer for when the baby is born.


Our friends the Montgomery's came to visit us from Logan on Thursday! The boys played and played with their two kids. They have a little girl that's almost a year old and Dustin couldn't believe she was crawling. Infact he was CONVINCED she wasn't big enough to crawl, so he would crawl right behind her (almost on top of her) and make sure she didn't fall over. It was cute, and eventually he accepted that she wasn't going to hurt herself.

Friday we got a 3 yard load of wood chips for our yard. That night we spread half of it and we plan to to finish up Saturday between Conference sessions. I'm hoping this will mean we don't have to weed this year. The boys think the pile of wood chips is the best toy ever! They help us by climbing up it to see how tall it is, and they have their sand shovels to help us fill up the wheel barrel.

We learned a new anatomy term recently that Logan wanted me to share, it's philtrum. It's the dent below your nose and above your lip. He's pretty entertained that there's a term for it.
