My twisted sense of humor

This may be to much information for some - but funny none the less.

Here is a texting conversation Casey & I had the other day.

Casey: I'm going to be a about an hour late coming home from work
Brittni: That sucks
Casey: How come?
Brittni: Because this G-string is getting quite uncomfortable
Casey: Show me

Baby Animal Days

A little over a week ago Caleb & I met my mom at the American West Heritage Farm in Logan (or maybe it's Wellsville or Hyrum...somewhere that way) Every spring they have a whole bunch of baby animals that you can pet & play with. There was even a train ride - pony rides - bouncy houses - & food that smelled divine! I wanted to try a deep fried twinkie - but alas, I didn't. I've always wanted to try one of those things! It sounds so sinful that it has to be delightful. My mother has an odd sense of humor. We saw this little girl waiting in line & the fact that her headband was covering her eyes cracked my mom up. She said "Bwah aha hah ah cackle cackle...take a picture! take a picture!" So - I took a picture.
Caleb was NOT interested in the animals at all! I should have got him a sitter & just went with my mom! I love baby animals. They are toooooo cute!
Caleb was so excited when this chicken clucked for him & he got a little closer & the darn mow hawk chicken attacked the fence! Caleb was quite startled after that. Stupid chicken.
He was so careful not to get to close to the goats!
The calf was the only thing that Caleb wanted to pet.
A newborn baby rabbit!! IT WAS SO CUTE!!
I could not believe how many people were at this event! We went at 10:00 on a Thursday morning & it was crazy already. They had people directing traffic & everything. At least I know what to expect for when (or should I say if) I ever decide to return. Caleb might care in a couple of years...but he is just so happy when he is outside that he just wants to run! His favorite part of the whole day was running for the exit. What a silly kid.
Caleb is growing up! He's starting to look more & more like a little boy instead of a baby. We decided to put him into a 'big kid bed' a few nights ago & so far so good! He's sleeping through the night still - & has only fell out of bed once. I thought with a queen size bed we'd avoid him falling out of it - but no such luck.
He was coloring the other day & had a marker in each hand & was intently inspecting them and then he looked at me....shut his eyes....& shoved the markers in his face! I'm not sure what he was trying to achieve, but it was hilarious!

Easter! (better late than never)


We started our Easter weekend with a trip to the Fort Buenaventura Rendezvous in Ogden. I didn't know that cute place even existed! It would be a really fun place to go & take a long walk one day - with some mace & a pit bull of course. It was very cold & muddy - so we didn't stay long.
This picture really accentuates my 'Jay Leno' chin
The Saturday before Easter we had an Easter egg hunt at my parents house & delicious food. Caleb wasn't interested in the eggs at all. He was throwing them out of the toy house window and clapping for himself because he thought it was awesome! I think we're still at the stage where I'm getting more excited for holidays than he is. One day that might change. I was totally bummed that the weather didn't cooperate so that we could go to our annual Promontory picnic :( Hopefully next year we can!

Tossing his egg out the window.
Dylan couldn't find his last egg...
Can you?
They are both laughing at something.
Dylan is awesome.
Uncle Jordon rocks!!
On Easter Sunday I had a mental breakdown. It was fabulous. I wanted to watch conference & didn't really get to (because it's impossible with a toddler) & had to work that night & needed help putting a slide together that the Easter Bunny had left for Caleb. What did my spouse do? Hid in the basement all morning. I don't know why - but I sure was feeling picked on that day! BUT - Caleb LOVED his slide & all of his Easter goodies.
Letting his candy go first...

Park Pics

Last Sunday Casey & I took Caleb to the park. There is a park in town that is designed for children from 2-5. Caleb is such a runt that he had a hard time with some of the equipment - but it was fun to watch him explore & play in a different place.
He was TERRIFIED to go down the slide.
Casey thought I was so mean to make him go down it!
But these next pictures make my forcing him down well worth it.
He LOVED it.
He would peek his head in & wait for me to say go.....
But eventually I didn't need to tell him to 'go' anymore & he was DIVING into the slide.
He had a lot of fun!
PEEK-A-BOO
He loved these animals. Especially the cow!
