September Quotes

Rylan

(September 1, 2013)
I had a gel eye mask out and Tyce wanted to put it on. When I put it on him he looked like a superhero so I said "Look, it's Super Tyce!" Then he wanted me to put it on, so I did. Rylan said "Look, it's super mom...no wait, it's Super Pregnant Mom!"

At Kevin's soccer game the boys were running back and forth and up and down the bleachers. It started to make me nervous so I asked them to stop. Rylan sat down next to me and just then another little boy who was running down the bleachers tripped and fell.
Me: "That's why I don't want you to run." A few minutes later the boy tripped again and Rylan said "You should let us do it so we learn a lesson!"


Asher

(September 2, 2013)
We took the boys to see Turbo at the theaters. Asher had already seen it with Gavin (for Gavin's birthday party) and he had been talking a lot about it. After we watched it today I asked him if he liked the movie. He was shocked that I asked and he said "What?! Why would you ask that? You already know I liked it so why wouldn't I like it again?"
When I write that out it sounds like he was being rude but really, he seemed to be confused that I would think he didn't like it anymore.

Asher picked up the Book of Mormon to 'read'. After several minutes of reading out loud (made up words) he said "Hey mom, that's no fair. In this book it says that Jesus is the boss!"

While praying: "...Thankful we can love..."

(September 12, 2013)
Asher was telling me about Plants vs. Zombies and said "You can kill the zombies and cut thier heads off."
Me: "That sounds terrible"
Asher: "You don't need to say 'that sounds terrible' because it's a good thing to kill the zombies."

We got home from church and I told Kevin "If I don't have this baby before next Sunday I'm not going to church. Too many people share their surprise that I'm still pregnant." I laid down on the couch and Asher came to me and said "If you don't have the baby before Sunday then I'll stay home with you."
I'm not sure if he was being sweet and comforting me or if he was trying to get out of going to church!!

Asher has had crazy mosquito bites lately. He'll go outside for 5 minutes and come in covered with bites on his face, arms and legs. I'm starting to wonder if they really are mosquito bites or what they could be. We were talking about it today and he said "They are either mosquito bites, wasp bites, or weirdo bites."

Tonight we played Super Mario Bros. together as a family. I wasn't doing so great and soon lost all my lives. Shortly after Asher lost a life and said "Mom, I'm as bad as you"

Tyce

(September 24, 2013)
Tyce and I were downstairs. Kevin was playing Plants vs. Zombies upstairs and Ry and Asher were watching him. Suddenly Tyce stopped, gasped, and said "Zombies...coming!" He threw down the toy he was playing with and went upstairs to watch Kevin play. (In the game there's a part that says 'The zombies are coming.')

My Belly Is HUGE!

I got to go out with the neighborhood girls tonight. Always fun! Before I left Kevin took a picture of my 39 1/2 week big belly. I honestly did not think I'd still be pregnant, but at least I was able to enjoy a delicious dinner at Cubby's. I ate a lot. It's surprising that I can stuff so much food in my face but those sweet potato fries with buffalo dipping sauce are heavenly. And even though I feel huge I really do feel pretty good. Yay for being pregnant...now when is this baby coming?!

Going to Church

Kevin snapped some pictures of Tyce walking in to church because he thought he just looked so cute :)

Crazy Weather

Kevin and I got to use his parent's BYU tickets for the game last night. We were both excited to go! My mom came over to watch the boys until Tami could come pick them up. They were excited as well! On our way to the stadium it started to rain. Then it started to POUR. Almost instantly the streets by BYU were flooded and we could barely see. We had been listening to the pre-game show and knew it was going to be delayed because of the lightning. And now with this rain we considered just going home. We decided to stop at Wendy's (which was beyond packed!) to get some dinner while we waited to see when the game was going to start. We were happy to hear we didn't have much longer to wait. The rain had let up and eventually it turned into a beautiful night! (It didn't sprinkle a few times during the game but nothing that drove us away :)
Meanwhile back at home, my mom and Tami had quite an adventure. The boys were outside playing but as soon as it started to storm they all ran inside. Tami and my mom were talking and my mom looked out the window just as the tramp blew away, over the fence, up against the neighbors house! Yikes! Tami said the poles were bent (we already had to trash the net). The tramp was staked into the ground so that was a fierce wind that must have blown in just the right direction. I'm so glad the boys had come inside.

The game was lots of fun. We cheered and high-fived and enjoyed being out together. I do enjoy watching BYU football and it's always a bit more exciting to be at the stadium. BYU played a great game and pulled off a win! GO COUGS!!

Baby Shower

My cute friend Sarah offered to throw me a baby shower. I tried to decline but she insisted so I gave in :) It was incredibly nice of her but she's always nice like that!

I didn't think to take pictures but Sarah and I snapped this one at the end. It was fun chatting with the girls and really, just having a night out with good friends is always welcome. People were so generous to come and Lana got some really cute new outfits, towels, blankets, bows, and more! I feel so blessed to be surrounded by such good people!

Baby Dreams

I've had a few dreams about this baby so I thought I'd record them, just for fun.

The first dream I had was several months ago. I was probably about 6ish months along. I had a dream that there was an opening in my stomach and I could see my baby's face. I just kept saying over and over "She's so beautiful!" And then I tried closing my stomach because I wasn't quite ready for her to be born yet. But I was just in awe and how beautiful she was :)

Another dream

Asher Starts Preschool

Asher was so excited to start preschool (for the second year). This year he's going to Little Readers Academy and Miss Jodi is his teacher. His best friend Jack is in his class so I know he's gonna have a great year!

 

 In class, ready for some FUN...and learning of course :)

Tyce and I came home for a nice morning together. I took him on a walk and then we read some Curious George while relaxing.
