Ok, so obviously I'm rather behind in my blogging, but things have been slightly hectic. I'm ready to get back on track, so here we go!!!!!!!!!!
Oliver was awarded the Jr. Husky Spotlight for February. He was recognized for being a great friend to everyone and being an enthusiastic learner. (Oliver? Enthusiastic? I would have never thought!)
He got to share this fun award ceremony with Beckett so that was an added bonus!

Pip gets into quite a bit of mischief. This particular incident was mild, but still noteworthy, since it required me to stop what I was doing to clean up yet another mess. She emptied out her entire book basket and then hopped inside to read.
Later that afternoon, I heard clanking around in the kitchen. I called out wondering if someone needed help with something. When no one answered, I decided to investigate. This is what I found. Pip, in the window above my kitchen sink. I was shocked to say the least! She turned into a climber overnight!
Look at that proud face.
And then she proceeded to show me what she had climbed up there for. The candy dish I thought I had moved out of her reach. Great.
Here's another one of the things that keeps my life more hectic than I would like. My obsessive sweet child Hudson told me 2 days prior that they were having Dr. Seuss/Crazy Day at school and he just HAD to have a "costoon". And not just something crazy looking. He wanted to be a character from one of the books. But it had to be authentic. He wanted the whole kit and caboodle.When I came up with this idea, he was satisfied, but extremely disappointed I couldn't find him red pants to make it a "suit" like in the book.
I'm telling you what: forget Crazy Day-- I'm going to go crazy every day for the rest of my life if I have to keep up with him and his demands!
So here they are: Thing 1 and Thing 2!
A special thanks to Steve to running out to the West Jordan Target at 9:45 at night to get the red t-shirts for them. Not to mention a special thanks to me for running after work to buy the boas and iron-on transfer paper. And let me tell you, it took 3 stores to find anyone with a snow hat left in stock with Spring on the way. But I couldn't think of any other way to make their wigs without it!
"I hope you appreciate it boys...because it's not going to happen again for a looooong time."
Pretty dang cute though, that's all I have to say!
I think it was worth it!
Of course Pippi had to get in on the action. What a clown.
She's into acting like a zombie. She needs a sister.
My mom gets mad at me for calling her "my little baboon", but honestly--look at her! How can I resist? My whole life I've always wanted a pet monkey, and looks like I finally got my wish!
See? She even acts like one!
This is one of her favorite things to do right now. Steve puts her there and then she hangs until she's too tired and then drops into his arms. See? I told you she was a little baboon!
Or a chipmunk...I'm not sure which some days...
I'm including this picture of her because it is IDENTICAL to one of me when I was her age. WOW!
And lastly, I had to include this part of her life so I won't forget. Although honestly it drives me so bonkers I don't know how I would. She purposely drops her binky down the back of her crib every time she wakes up. Before she could go get it herself, it was me crawling under her crib twice a day to retrieve it for her. Still makes me nuts even though she can get it herself, because I have to help her move the bins I store under her crib so she can get to it.
Good thing she's cute..
Good thing they're all cute!
