Random life from October 3rd- November 19th

 These pics are just some random ones that I have taken on my phone. So enjoy! :-) 

These huge bears were being sold at Costco. It finally opened int he beginning of October and these bears were right up in the front of the store! The boys thought they were pretty awesome!!  

 Ethan got to be the leader of a game at music makers. He was so thrilled to be able to be the one wearing the wizard hat and telling everyone how many steps they got to take! 

 My cute boys brushing their teeth in their christmas jammies! :-) 

 Wyatt was scratching Ethan's back with this little mini brush! He would do it and then ask Ethan if he liked it! haha Pretty funny! Ethan loves to have his back scratched sometimes and pulls his shirt up so that we can scratch his back like daddy does! haha

Here are just a bunch of pictures of me and the boys being weirdos! :-) 

 I sure it great being a mom!! 

Then Ethan colored this turtle in primary on sunday and if you can notice this turtle is no ordinary turtle. It is a ninja turtle! He drew the mask on him and everything! :-)  

 My boys are cuddled up for conference! I sure love these 3!! 

 Then after dropping Coya off at the airport after their visit we decided to stop by and visit Daddy at work. His name was officially on the door!! Wahoo! 

 We made these little rice crispy treat spiders to ding dong ditch people for family home evening! The boys LOVE ding dong ditching and who wouldn't, it is so much fun! :-) 

 Just being weird again before bedtime! 

 A lot of mornings I have a protein drink for breakfast. I made a smoothie one and the boys wanted some too so I made them some and they sat in this comfy chair and drank them while watching cartoons. Its not like the weather was perfect to have something cold to drink for breakfast since this is what it looked like outside... 

Snow!!!! 

 After the snow stopped I let the boys help me shovel the drive way. They were dying to get outside and play in the snow so I figured why not kill two birds with one stone and get the driveway shoveled as well. Ethan had fun trying to help me and kept asking me if I needed help where I was shoveling! haha 

 Wyatt gave me a checkup one night! 

Then this past week the boys were downstairs playing in the basement. They were having a blast and laughing up a storm. Then Ethan came upstairs with white stuff all over his hands and was excited to have me see. Realizing what it was I told him to go downstairs. Then I walked toward the basement and this is what I saw....

It snowed in our basement!!  

 The boys had found the Styrofoam inside of a box we had downstairs and completely destroyed it!!! 

After seeing that they were covered we just closed the basement door and let them play for a while. I couldn't help but laugh after seeing both of them covered. Even though we knew the clean up was going to be horrific! They were having so much fun that we couldn't stay mad at them. At least they had fun right!?! 

 This is how we do winter clothes in this house! haha 

After it warmed up enough we went outside and made a snowman. Ethan was so excited to be able to finally make a snowman.  

But frosty didnt make it very long! I think he was alive for 5 minutes before they destroyed him! haha  

Then finally this picture I took because Ethan got this sticker saying "I was a good friend" while he was at preschool. He told me that he asked a girl in his class if he could help her put her jacket on. His teacher Ms. Jamie who we saw later that day said that the little girl was having a really hard time and Ethan just stepped in and asked if he could help her. I took a picture and sent this to his Daddy so that Ethan knew how proud we were of him. He also had gone 3 nights without peeing in his underwear. So within a 3 day span he had kept himself dry each night for the 3 days and then had been a nice friend and helpful in preschool. He is such a good little boy. So potty training at night has been going well. He stays dry for about 3 nights in a row and then has an accident and then does another 3 nights and then has an accident. So he is progressing. We are hoping that soon he wont be having accidents and we can finally get his room to stop smelling like pee! haha I am just glad he has been improving!! :-) 

Oh Christmas Tree... Oh Christmas Tree...!!

On November 10th we decided to put up our Christmas tree for FHE. We figured it was the best time to do it since Brandon was still home and recovering from surgery. Plus we saw Christmas trees up in our neighborhood and were way behind! haha So we got out our newly bought Costco 7.5 ft Christmas tree and put it up together. We let the boys help with putting up the ornaments. They loved putting the ornaments on the tree! We could have moved the ornaments around after the boys went to bed and put them where they would look nice... but, I think it is funny to see how the boys decorated the tree by themselves! :-) 

The bottom branches were obviously their favorite spots! haha 

Then there were ornaments holding ornaments! :-) 

They sure had fun with it and so did we! Oh how I love the holiday season!! Especially the Christmas season! :-)
