Happy Birthday Harper from Applebees

Princess Vonda got married on April 10th in Salt Lake. After the reception we went to the gateway for dinner and they sang Happy Birthday to Harper at Applebees. This is a video of them singing to Harper. My favorite is his face at the end.

Dr. appointments

So we had some exciting days the last couple of days.I woke up Monday morning not being able to open my left eye so went to the doctor on Monday to get diagnosed with pink eye. Hooray NOT! IT STINKS! My eye is getting better that is one of the reasons I have been on facebook and blogging so much is because I have been home bound for the last 2 days with my gross blind eye. Harper said that I had boogies in my eye but he still likes me but not to touch him with my gooey eye.:(. Rusty went to the Doctor too for a routine check up and ask about the possibilities of having allergies which he does but can take Zyrtec and is good. Both boys went to the doctor too for their 3yr old and 18 month old Check up.

Harper weighs 34.2 pounds and is 39 inches tall 80th percentile for height and 75th for weight. He got a blood test done by sticking him in the thumb and was very brave didn't even cry but did need a hug from mommy.

Ben weighs 24.2 pounds and is 33 inches tall and has a big brain. He is still tall and skinny with a big brain.75th for height 25th for weight and 93rd fro head size. He got 2 shots today but all was ok after hugs and a sucker.

Silly Grandpa drove off with the car seat so we got to all walk to the doctors. Goodtimes. This is the last appointment with both boys at the same time. They had one together when they were 6 months and 2 yrs and now that they are 18 months and 3. Now they will get their own.

Rolling Easter Eggs Party.

Last Easter we continued Rusty's family tradition of rolling Easter eggs down the hill. So For Harper's Easter birthday party we went to Bountiful and had a picnic with Grandma Connie, Aunt Brittany, and Cousins Mekenzie and Marshall. Grandma Connie made homemade fried chicken and it was so good. We then had fun rolling Easter eggs down the hill then rolling ourselves down the hill. (not recommend for adults. Ask Uncle David about that.) It was a blast. We had a jelly bean cake for Harper and Grandpa Carl that was delicious.




Mekensie taught Harper last year and Harper taught Ben this year. Before we traveled to Bountiful we died 12 dozen Easter eggs. 10 for the Easter bunny to hide and 2 to throw. By the way I know the Easter bunny personally and we are still finding Easter eggs.

First Movie in the Theater

We have fallen behind because of all the happenings going on around us so I decided to try and catch up and just post from where we left off. Harpers Birthweek. We started his birthweek celebration by taking him to see his first movie in the Theater. We watched the 2D version of Monsters vs. Aliens. He watched the whole thing on the big giant screen in the loud theater and seemed to really like it. He had a straight face the whole time but didn't stop talking about after it was over for days. Now when we drive past the theater he talks about it and tells everyone that's where he went to see Monsters vs. Aliens. It was a good start to his birth week celebration.

Girls night out

For Heathers 30th Birthday I decided we needed to lose our pedicure virginity. It was a blast. I surprised her with pedicures. I was nervous like it was a first date for some reason but it was awesome. We went to our traditional restaurant Applebees then I drove her to Grassroots for our pedicures. Since it was our first time I bought her some flip flops and Capri lounge shorts just in case. She picked out hot pink nail polish and I got vampire red ( really its grandma red but they lied to me and told me that it didn't look like that.). We finally have a decent picture of both of us too. Not the one we are in the room but the close up one. Heather is cute I'm a hippo but its cool. They asked on the form if we had any foot fungus's I told them that i didn't think so and I hoped not. They didn't say anything so I think everything went well. I kidnapped Heather for a little while after and we just drove around and talked like the olden days. It was a long overdue amazing girls "moms" night out. Love you Heather thank you for over 15 years of friendship.

ice skating

For my Uncles Birthday he rented the Ice sheet in Ogden and let us all go ice skating. It was so much fun. Harpers favorite part was falling he looks terrified in the picture below but he really did have fun. Ben said he was stuck when we put his skates on. It was really cute. We finally found something that stops Ben. Harper and I crashed once he thought it was so funny all it did was prove that I'm old and bruised my knees all up. Shantel and I played Olympics and skated in a circle we are pretty good.
