How did they pick that up?

My kids have said some of the funniest things lately- I want to be sure to remember them. Isn't that what a blog is for?

We've been trying to be more dedicated about family scripture study and the kids were begging for their own scriptures. So Wyatt and I went to the LDS bookstore to pick some up. As we were checking out, the manager asked him- "Wow- I bet you're excited to get your own scriptures." Wyatt replied -" Yep. Now I can teach my brother Ike how to keep the commandments because I have the word of the Lord." You should have seen the poor guys face- he was in shock :)

I took Livvy and Ikers with me to Park City last weekend to spend some time with Shelby's family on a girls trip shopping at the outlets. It was a blast- period. It made me miss them and a little homesick.....but I digress. Anyway- Livvy loved shopping the outlets- she found something at nearly every store that she HAD to have. Later she was showing her daddy all of the spoils that we had found- she could remember every single store and what we had purchased there. She even told her dad about the stores that we had gone into but hadn't purchased things- "We went into the Skechers store- and they had these really cute shoes with lights and sparkles- but there was too many crazy ladies in that store- so we left :)"

Ike can't speak yet- duh. But he is growing so much. He explores the entire house- dances to music- eats EVERYTHING in sight- and is just like his Daddy. Their favorite game is to sit and growl at each other. It sounds like a couple of puppies ready to fight-

This momma is blessed :)

No Dumbos around here!

While shopping today- I found the cutest little Dumbo costume for Ike- it had big ears and was so soft. I fell in love with it. I turned to Wyatt and showed it to him- "Wyatt- look at this cute Dumbo costume for Ike for Halloween!". This was his reply-- "NO MOM!! Ike can't be Dumbo- everyone will laugh at him- and that's not nice." He was very serious about this. His little brother was not to be laughed at. So my hilarious costume went back on the rack.
