dRaMa...

Last weekend we had a little drama at our house (I'm sure most of you have already heard but I wanted to write it for my record). Friday afternoon I was feeding Beckham in my room and Mais was out in the family room playing (she is usually fine playing out there by herself). Well she went in the kitchen and pulled the chair up to the counter and got into my nail stuff (which is usually in the closet but I had just finished doing nails and hadn't had a chance to put it away yet). Needless to say she found some miraculous way to open my primer bottle, which is made of almost straight acid, and she tried to drink it. She spilled it all down her arms and got it all over her cheeks and mouth. I heard her screaming from my room and went running out there to see what was wrong and found her soaked in it. I was freaking out because I knew how bad this stuff burns your skin. I started hysterically crying and called Cade, he couldn't understand me so he just told me to call 911 so I hung up on him and called 911. They dispatched me over to poison control where they just told me to put her in the tub and wash her really good and give her lots of milk to drink. Luckily I got it washed off her fast enough that the burns turned out to be way better then I thought they would. She is healing well now and I am so relieved that it wasn't worse. This stuff eats right through your skin and can even cause blisters so thank goodness she didn't blister. She still has some burn marks on her arm but her face and other arm are pretty much healed. This stuff just gets you so shaken up and makes you realize how precious their little lives are. I think my heart broke for her for at least 3 days after it happened. The poor girl had a very rough weekend but we are so glad she is ok and we made it through the worst part. I wanted to get pics of it but I lost my camera so sorry I have no pictures.

KidDoS...

Beckham is getting so big, at his 2 month checkup he weighed 12lbs. 6oz. and that put him in the 80th percentile. He is quite the little chunk.

This is such a sad but adorable face...

Mais loves holding her little brother even if it's only for a minute...



Mais got to help me make dinner the other night, she loves helping mommy. I just love this little apron on her.

Mais is such a daddy's girl...


Yesterday morning while I was feeding Beck Mais dissapeared and she was being extremely quiet (this is never a good sign). So as soon as I was done I went to find her and this is what I found...

She drug the chair over and climbed into our candy drawer. She was going to town on all the candy. Like father like daughter!
I love these little ones. They keep my life exciting, what would I do without them?

EaStEr...

We had such a fun Easter weekend. Our weekend went as follows...
Saturday morning we went to my cousin's work Easter Egg hunt that they do every year in Bountiful. Mais loved picking up the eggs and putting them in her basket; however, she loved the candy the very most. She ate all her candy within like 30 minutes, it was hilarious. They also had an adult hunt where they gave away some great prizes, unfortunetly we didn't win anything :( Here are the pics from the hunt...



After the hunt in Bountiful we headed to Cade's parents for their annual lunch/egg hunt. We had a fabulous lunch and then the kids had their hunt. Mais got lots of goodies and some money, she loved it! Then we had the adult hunt (this one is always fun becuase the eggs are full of money). Just to paint a picture for you, this hunt gets extremely intense there have even been times the girls have been taken out by the boys. It's a lot of fun. Me and Cade kicked butt and walked away with 50 bucks and a $25 gift card to Chile's. Yahoo! Here are a few pics...





Today we had so much fun at our house with Maisey. She loved finding eggs all over our house and she loved tearing all the stuff from her Easter basket. She has been so much fun this year she actually has some interest.









After we did our own little Easter we had an Easter dinner with my mom at her house which was yummy and then my mom did her hunt with the kids (she always just gives them money). Once the kids were done with the hunt the kids played out back and the adults played games. It was such a fun day. I loved spending so much time as a family this weekend and am so thankful to have my kids and hubby to spend this time with.

BeCkHaM...


He is now 2 months (today) and he is getting so big. He has really started to smile and he tries so hard to talk, it's adorable. He is such a good baby and has started to do really well at night. He has had about 4 nights that he has slept 7-8 hours straight, we're hoping this will become a regular accurance. We are loving this little man and the joy he brings to our family.
