Little-isms

Little One turned on the T.V. today (Sunday) to watch Veggie Tales. The channel that was on was race cars. He commented: "Why would people even want to race on Sunday? They could be killed. That's ever worser than going to church."

Later, when we had peanutbutter filled cookies after dinner, he said: "You know why it's called filled?" I answered ". . . because they're filled with peanut butter." But he said, "Nope, it's because you eat so much you get filled up."

What a dang cutie. I love the perspective of the untrained mind of youth.

Pics with birthmother

Today we went and had pics done with Princess' birthmother. I thought ya'll might want a peek. Here's the link: http://mystudio.kiddiekandids.com/viewshare.asp?c=00220626878A4X9GR

We're Crazy . . . and we won't do it again.

A few days ago we went on a drive Captain Engineer has been dying to do for quite some time. We all loaded into the new truck to cruise Skyline Drive from Bountiful to Farmington. It's a dirt road with bumps and thumps for the first couple miles. After that it got pretty cool . . . seeing a hawk flying right next to the road. The trees were beautiful, and the views became stunning.

It was so cool to be above the Bountiful Temple.
Then the road turned and as we rounded a corner, the road narrowed. It was only wide enough for one vehicle, and it was not a one way road! We met some four-wheelers who assured us we were on the right track. Little One and I got pretty apprehensive on the "Oh, Earl" road (That's what my mom used to repeat several times on such roads with steep drop offs, or on scary bridges swaying in the breeze). But we were fortunate enough NOT to meet another truck going the other way. The road widened and went down the other side of the mountain for a little ways where we saw several brave campers who actually brought trailers with them!!
Princess slept most of the way. The road switched back down the canyon into Farmington where we saw the breath taking view of the sunset over the Great Salt Lake.



We were Safe at Last!
Small Print: Road not recommended for those faint of heart, terrified of heights, or with no sense of adventure.

Smart Cookie Already

Little One especially likes to call Princess the Baba. "Goodnight Baba." "What's a matter, Baba?" Last night as he said goodnight, she echoed him: "ba ba ba ba . . . "

She responds so well to Little One. He gets her to laugh more than anyone else. He was sneaking up on her the other night and saying "BOO." She would laugh and laugh.
