New Moon!

Loved the movie! I wasn't as crazy this time around. I had Gavin with me, (I know I'm crazy, but I couldn't miss this) and my pregnant sister wasn't feeling well (she's the only person besides Scott that pulls out my crazy side) Not only that I was up half the night before with Adelle puking! (No swine flu though she's fine. Thank heaven)
Things I liked better-
Edward wasn't so depressing and awkward,
Victoria's hair
Hair and makeup in general! Everyone looked so much better!
Things I didn't like-
The Music (way better in the first)
There were quite a few shots that were dizzying
Okay and Kristen Stewart sleeps weird don't you think? (In both movies)
Overall I would have to say that Chris Weitz did a much better job at directing that Catherine Hardwicke. I liked the second movie so much better over all. I felt Chris captured more of Stephanie's vision. Well he captured more of my vision of what I thought the movies should be.

It's gone!

My Father in law just left with my van!

About a month ago Scott called me and told me that his employers had already bought his ticket to Maryland. So we were racking our brains as to what our plans should be. Should we fly Scott home and drive the van all together, have my dad and brother drive the van with the kids and I or have the kids and I fly out? then fly my dad and brother home? We were going for the first plan when Scott's dad called and volunteered to drive the van and then he could fly home for free because he is a veteran. We were so excited for this plan because a four day trip in the car with 3 children will now be a two hour SLC airport venture, a 4 hour flight to Maryland, and a three hour waiting for daddy's flight to come in at the Baltimore airport. 9-10 hours is better than four days don't you think.

Gavin's Stats

So I really don't have time to be doing this right now, but Gavin's three months and I haven't posted his Stats for his two month check so here they are:

Weight 12 lb 3 oz (75th percentile)

Length 23.5 in (75th percentile)

(He's now 14 lbs)

I love watching this little guy grow!

Adelle's First Day of School

I just realized that I didn't post Adelle's first day of school picture so here it is.

Who thought of year round school?

I really would like to kill them right now! I just get used to having my sweet, cute, very energetic Adelle in school and then they throw her back at me, mocking me, "you entertain her for 24 hours a day!"

To make matters worse we are at my sister's house (while she and her husband are on a cruise) with her wild, unpotty-trained dog, and loud, ornery bird! And it just got cold! The playground I see out the window laughs at me as the wind blows hard and I know the temperature is too cold for playing at a playground. (I just wish I had all of our coats and snow boots at this point.)

Not that I really have time to go to the playground. I wake up cook, clean up, homework, read, cook some more, naptime, etc. (I could go on and on, but I don't need to. Moms you know the drill).

I've also got projects coming out the wazoo! I'm out of here in 11 days! I cannot believe it. Three months are almost over and my new life in Maryland begins, and I don't know how to feel. Grateful to be in my own place, but sad to be away from family. Oh yeah and to have a husband again would be great!

Anyway there are the rantings of a mom who is pulling her hair out! Her kids are bouncing off the walls, she's leaving the only world she's known for almost 27 years in 11 days, and she's cleaning up poop after a stupid dog that refuses to go outside! (I swear he's ADD)

No Phone?

I had the pleasure of seeing my aunt Lynette tonight as she was at my parent's house to wish my mom a happy birthday. As the ladies were sitting around the table Lilly says to my aunt,

"I need to tell you something."

As our attention was turned to Lilly she relayed a story from this past summer. Scott, Adelle, and Lilly went to Lagoon with my brother and sister. (I was home very pregnant.) While at Lagoon my brother's cell phone fell to its death on the roller coaster "Wicked".

As Lilly was telling my aunt how Davy went on a ride and his phone was in his pocket, it fell out and broke, I asked her;

"Lilly, did you go on 'Wicked'?"

She then responded to me in a, "silly mommy", voice:

"No, I don't have a phone."
