The past few weeks

I have been terrible at taking pictures lately, but here are a few random ones from the past few weeks. I took the boys to the baseball park the other day and the only things Dallin grabbed were his golf bag and club. He goes through phases with sports and this week it's golf. I sure hope he never gets to the football phase. Golf I can handle. It's a gentleman's sport. You wear collared shirts, you don't get knocked on your face.

Dallin wanted to take Taylor for a ride in his stroller the other day. Taylor, in all of his 23 pounds of glory, nearly busted it in half. It was meant for dolls but until Michael lets me buy D a doll, Taylor will have to suffice.

My Mom and Missy gave me a Bosch machine for Christmas. I absolutely LOVE it. Who knew I would ever be so excited about a kitchen appliance? Dallin is a master chef when it comes to bread. We make a batch at least once a week and my cute little assistant insists on doing all of the steps himself; he even has his own mini pans and mini rolling pin. I usually bake the bread during his nap, let it cool, and then put his loaves back in the cooled oven so that he can take them out when he wakes up (he still likes to use the hot pads). So cute.



We canned about 75 cans the other night for food storage. I let Dallin stay up because he loves helping me fill the cans. It took twice as long with him helping but we had a great time. For those of you who know Michael well, you will not be the least bit surprised that as Dallin unloaded the cans from a bag, Dallin lined them up perfectly in rows across the floor. So funny, I had to take a picture.


Taylor may be large, but he can cruise across the floor in record time. If he wants to go especially fast, he will put his head down so that his body is more aerodynamic.


My Mom and Missy came to visit us a couple of weeks ago. All I have to say is that we keep Joe's Farm Grill and Joe's BBQ in business. Love you guys- thanks for coming.

I marvel that you can do any baking without Dallin! I love how he is smelling his bread. A man can't be too careful about the food he eats.

Cute little guys- they melt my heart.

I love seeing that chunk of a child crammed into that tiny stroller!

Finally some new pics!! I've been waiting anxiously. Its not like you're a busy mom of two or anything :) Love the aerodynamic comment. There's nothing like a good set of fat rolls to speed you up. Miss you!

Thanks for all the pictures. You are amazing with the bread and food storage with a crawler to help! Riggs has the same fireman pjs. I can't wait to get these boys together!

Dallin's shirt looks like it says, "Obama" instead of "Champs"

Did I tell you that Ro has the same jammies as Taylor? The blue ones with trucks. Got to love Carters huh. Do you have an outlet store close by? We do. LMK if you need anything and I'll bring it to Saint Louey.
