Alice's Birthday

Yes yes, well Alice's birthday was in April, so we aren't too far behind. As for tradition we went to the Tulip Festival for Alice's birthday. It was so fun. The kids loved being outside, I loved the gardens, and Jason, well he loves the food. We had the best pulled pork sandwich there, yum. Also there was clogging going on which the kids loved. Before it started, they just had music playing and lots of little kids danced on the platform. Our kids of course loved that. We keep trying to go back to the gardens, but the weather has been uncooperative.



Alice got a trike for her birthday. We just took it outside last week and she loves when I push her around. This being our second trike, we bought the one with the parent handles.



Alice helped make her cake, by choosing the frosting color. We put M&Ms on it and that was all she wanted to eat. Then she scraped her finger on it to get the frosting off and we just let her have fun. Soon the whole cake looked like it had small trenches in it. Oh well.



My parents came down for conference and we took Dad with us to the Planetarium in Salt Lake. The kids had fun yelling "grandpa come here," the whole time. Then we went to the new Whole Foods, which was awesome. Although, we did have a potty incident there. Let's just say that Daniel can hold a lot of pee. Despite that, we had tons of fun with Grandpa.

Sewing Quilts with Daniel

Daniel is not one to sit still very often at all. My parents say that he is totally my son and that I drove my mom crazy too but frankly I can't remember that far back. There is one thing that Daniel loves to help me with, and that is sewing. He loves the machine and loves to sit in my lap as we sew anything. Sometimes I think about just sewing straight lines down my endless supply of fabric because I know he will sit still for awhile. A few months ago I had a good friend show me how to make rag quilts. The first one that Daniel and I sewed together was for my niece Abigale. Then of course I had to make one for my nephew Joshua. Then I decided to make one for Daniel. I was going to make a transportation one, full of trucks and planes and boats, but when I took him to the fabric store, much to my surprise and delight he chose dragons over the airplanes. So we started his quilt last week. He sat on my lap or next to me while we sewed every piece together. He was so excited ...

Sitting Up

Alice has begun sitting up. She can sit for about a minute on her own and then for about five minutes supported. Grass is also her new favorite thing and she will grab the blanket that she sits on and move it so that she can grab the grass. She can currently pull of fist fulls of grass with no hesitation. Although she did face plant in the grass and decided that the grass was not where her head should be. Daniel loves raspberries. He loves to run outside and pick raspberries straight from the bushes. Then he loves to run around the yard at grandma's house screaming. Alvin the dog is actually more afraid of Daniel than the other way around. Our house is coming along and hopefully within the month so we can get more settled. Yellowstone was a successful trip and our kids had a blast. Daniel could not see out the binoculars so eventually we just started pointed out animals that he could see on his own which were: buffalo. Good things seeing four million buffalo was exciting...

in case you have not heard

Baby Webb #3 is on the way. Here the baby is. We are going to try to be strong and not find out the sex at the ultra sound. So if you have an opinion, about the sex, feel free to share it. I am sure Jason will put a vote up. So far he wants names like "gunner" and "ruby." I told him Gunner might not go so well with Alice and Daniel, but who am I to stop an opinion? Oh wait. I was sick off and on for a few weeks but feel pretty good now. This is the baby at 10 weeks. We are about 13.5 weeks today. Due the end of February. I guess if we are lucky it could be a leap day baby. Daniel saw the baby in the ultra sound and was totally not surprised. His comment was "is that the baby I knew was growing in your tummy?" Alice was disturbed and cried and didn't eat for about two days. Then Daniel reminded me of a few months ago when he heard a voice from heaven telling him we needed another baby. He told me that "heavenly father w...
