An average day..

Not much happening around here lately...

Lucas is back on the train bandwagon. Here they are joining us for lunch

 Discovered heaven on earth... layer of brownie, layer of oreo, layer of chocolate chip cookie. Darn you kneaders! They even have a drive through so I may or may not go everyday.

 $2 buck Tuesday at Thanksgiving point! It was crazy... but surprisingly not too bad once we got inside.

 And it was totally worth it because Lucas LOVED it.

 This shark was his favorite

 He loved it SO much that this is what happened when we got in the car

 And 20 minutes later... it was still going on. He kept screaming "NO PICTURE" while I snapped away... which only made me laugh harder. 

 I made a lego table because it is the new toy of choice around these parts.

 And Andy ended up in the hospital last week. His small intestine started bleeding which is not good. After 3 days in the hospital and a blood transfusion he was on the mend. Here is my lunch one day...

 And dessert one night... they have awesome diet coke.

 My super woman sister in law got in the car and drove to Provo when she heard of Andy. Lucas was SO excited to see "The Boys". Immediately they started a light sabor fight.

 We took them to the BYU Dinosaur museum and they all loved it,

Of course Lucas loved his map

 Jane fell asleep with daddy

 Wrestling with daddy

 I feel like I am playing mancala everytime I fill the pill box with Andy's weekly meds. This is only half... I haven't picked up the rest.

So Thursday starts Cycle 2 of Chemo. Wish us luck! 

4 Months!

It's true... Janie girl is 4 months!! I just want her to stop growing. The next few months are my favorite and I am trying to savor them as much as possible!

Some things I want to remember about 4 months!

- Jane has the best belly laugh

- She laughs the hardest when you kiss her cheeks (and oh are they kissable!)

- She rolls from her back to her belly and then proceeds to scream until someone rolls her back over

- Still hates her carseat

- I now double swaddle her so she will sleep at night and she still manages to get one little hand out

- Loves her paci

- Her favorite toys are Sophie and her blue rattle ball

- In 3-6 months clothes... but is approaching the 6-12 months.

- Nicknames: Janie Girl, Little, The Riddler, Pip Squeak

No stats because I haven't had her 4 month check up yet

Typical Saturday

Yesterday felt like a typical Saturday. Andy had a good day, which we now don't take for granted. We soak up all the time we can. The morning started off to a great start with a girls day. My mom treated the girls to a pedicure and lunch. Yum! It was Jane's first "pedicure" and I think she liked it :)

 While the girls were gone the boys played at home. After naps we headed to the park. Lucas was in heaven playing "Skee-ball" (Baseball) with daddy and grandma!

 Grandma showing us how it is done :)

 Baby Jane chillin on the grass... practicing her rolling skills.

 We also played a little Salt n Pepper. And yes, I am sore today from it. 

 My mom bought Jane this rattle ball... she loves it!

 Lucas wanted to play "Get you" with my mom. Which means you chase him and say "get you"... he loved it. 

 My mom would tackle him and he would say look up and when you looked up he would start running. Too smart this one!

We ended the night with some Costa Vida- my favorite... we are adjusting to our new normal, but slowly things are getting back to where we can just hang out together. Andy was super tired today, I think we wore him out. But it was worth it just to be outside as a family.

Hogle Zoo

Today we ventured to the Hogle Zoo. We have been wanting to go since we moved here and having cousins in town was the perfect excuse! We met with up Cari and crew and started our adventure. Let's just say it was one HOT adventure. Yikes! Pushing a double stroller up those hills in 90 degree heat is quite the workout. :)

Outside the entrance... Lucas, Bostyn and Avery. Jax and Jane opted out of this photo op :)

 Lucas' favorite animal... the elephant!

 Looking at the rhinos

 Lucas loved his treasure map

 Outside the Gorilla habitat... they were huge!

 At one point Lucas sat down so he could better plan our next stop: 

 Of course we went on the train!

 Cute sisters Bostyn and Avery

 Cute Giraffes

It was so much fun and as soon as we got back in the car Lucas started screaming... NO MOM! More animals!!! Maybe we will have to take dad back... in October when it is NOT so hot :) Thanks Moore family for a fun day!
