The napless wonder!

So I don't know what is going on with my little one these days but for the last week it has been near impossible to get him to take a nap...I was thinking that it was because he was teething but that's not it (or at least I don't think so anymore). But seriously if I'm not holding him the whole time he won't sleep, and even then it's just for like 30 minutes at the most. I'm going crazy because he usually takes two 2-2 1/2 hour naps a day! And all I have to do is put him in his crib with his blanket and bear and he's out in a flash...but now I feel like I can't get anything done!

If you have any tricks to help PLEASE let me know!

Santa & Snow!

Saturday we had our ward Christmas party "Breakfast in Bethlehem." We decided that we would go and it ended up being a big deal and lots of fun! Not only did we have Wrigley, but we also had Taryn and Wyatt for a while. I got a taste of what it's like to have 3 babies all really close in age. It was fun...for a while anyway.

Santa made a surprise visit to our party and I got in line with Wrigley in one arm and Taryn in the other. Let me just tell you that Wrig's is officially heavier than Taryn is. After about 10 minutes my arms were dying! I was feeling the burn of holding two 20 pounders!

When we finally got to the front of the line we decided that Wrigley should go first, and so he had his first Santa "experience", he was such a trooper...he just sat there and looked up at him like "OK what now?" But Taryn....

When we were getting ready to leave the Church we were assaulted by a total white out. Well we've never taken Wrigley out in the snow yet so we decided that now was a good time for the debut! We got mixed reviews...he liked it, unless it got on his face! I know how you feel buddy!

All in all Saturday was a fun day of firsts!

I saw this on Rachel's blog and I just had to do it...it looked like too much fun! The idea is to make a list of 12 things that you would love to get for Christmas, but know that there is no way that you will ever get them....Here I go!

1. {A nEw HoUsE} Not that I don't love living basically rent free, but there is something to be said about having your very own place to do with exactly as you wish!

2. {A sUpEr MoDel'S bOdY} With excess baby weight not coming off the way it should I think it wouldn't hurt to ask Santa for a new body!...Or maybe I should just ask for a little help (I think the Wii Fit he's bringing us will do the trick!) :)

3. {MoNeY, mOnEy, MoNeY!) Who couldn't use more of that! I know I could, with Wrigley's appetite I swear I'm spending close to $40 a month on baby food! Not to mention how much diapers cost...and the fact that he grows out of his clothes WAY too fast!

4. {A sAtUrN oUtLoOk} Steve and I custom built one on the online the other night with all the bells and whistles we wanted and the $30,000 car's price tag went up to almost $40,000! WOW! Luxury costs a pretty penny I guess! :)

5. {A cRaFt RoOm} This would make keeping my house SO much easier! Seriously every time I get started on a new craft it stays all spread out on the kitchen table for weeks...finished or not! It's bad, plus it'll be my own little safe haven! Craft Craft Craft!

6. {A bEtTeR rElAtIoNsHiP wItH DaD} This is a long shot, but it would at least be nice to feel like he cared about me a little bit, rather than something that he has to deal with...Here's to hoping!

7. {SmAlLeR bOoBs} Yup I said it! I know some of you girls would like to have larger boobies...but trust me they're nothing but trouble! I would kill to be a B cup! :)

8. {A nEwBoRn BaBy} Now I do want one...not necessarily for Christmas but It would be nice to have a little one around. Wrigley just grew up too quickly and with Wyatt around it's making me baby hungry already! TROUBLE!

9. {To LiVe SoMeWhErE sUnNy} I was in Arizona a few years ago over Thanksgiving and I definitely need to invest in some real estate down there...that's where the money comes in handy!

10. {A cUrE fOr DySlExIa} It would be so great if I could cure my sweet little students of their learning disability. It would help them so much with their self confidence and open up a whole new world to them. In the meantime however I'm doing all I can to help them!

11 {A hUsBaNd FoR mY mOm} I hope this one really does happen and soon! She needs a good man in her life!

12 {To LiVe A lOnG & hApPy LiFe WiTh StEvE} This one is in the bag...but I thought I'd add it anyway.

Have fun and create your own list of the 12 things you would love for Christmas!

An early Christmas gift!

I've been saying for a while now that all I want for Christmas is to see Brooke, Jordan, and Wyatt....well Santa brought me my gift early this year. The Brady family made the long trek home from Luxembourg on Thursday. Jordan was released from his contract with his team and is searching for a new team to play with. But in the mean time they had 2 tickets home for the Holidays!
Seeing Wyatt for the first time was so great! He so darling. He reminds me so much of Brooke...and my cousin Jared and his kids. He has a lot of Hoyt in him.

Wednesday night I couldn't sleep because I was too excited, it felt like Christmas eve, and Thursday just felt like torture not having much to do other than some cleaning. Thankfully the day when by fast. Before I knew it, it was 10:15 and was time to go pick them up at the airport.Christmas wishes do come true! {THANK YOU SANTA!}

{tWiLiGhT pReMiEr NiGhT}

Thursday at about 9:45 I met up with my sister-in-laws and a bunch of other people in anticipation for the big movie. We went to Chili's to grab a bite before the 12:01 show. I was so nervous though that I couldn't eat anything! I know I'm so lame but I was so excited. The movie really didn't disappioint. It was cheesy and corny in a few places yes, but it was still really good. I can't wait for the other books to be made into movies.

I have to share some of the pictures I took because the theater was a mob scene! It was crazy. I guess I just didn't know what to expect! But definately not this! You can't really tell in the picture but there were hundreds of people there....even a few men! I know I couldn't believe it either. So I'm trying to convince my better half that it would be worth his while to take me to see it....we'll see how that goes.

And yes if you are wondering about Edward...Robert Pattinson does do a pretty good job. He just flashes a few smiles and you melt...well I did so.

A few of my favorites!

What a cute little guy he is!

The problem with technology!

I've recently discovered a major flaw in the "cell only" part of my life. For the last 2 days my phone has been going crazy. I can't do anything with it. I only sometimes get my texts, and calls. I can't call or text. But the best part is that when I called T-Mobile to see what was going on the guys was like "well your phone is active so you should be fine." I wanted to scream at him! THEN WHY CAN'T I USE THE STUPID THING! Then he said he'd x-fer me to customer service and the lady there didn't listen to anything that I said. She told me to call from another phone. TWICE! And that was after I told her that I only have a cell phone. No land line. But apparently that didn't compute.
So if you've been trying to get a hold of me for the last few days I'm sorry....but technology is EVIL!
