Where've I been?

No where, really. Just here. Just trying to get this house sold and trying to find somewhere to live in Logan. And cleaning cleaning and more cleaning for showings. Have I ever mentioned how much I love keeping a house spic 'n span while I have 3 kids in the house? It is great. Just great.

I really have sat down at the computer about 49 times to write a post, and alas, here one is...

Dylan finished off preschool with a bang! He had the best teachers ever (even if they are the only preschool teachers I have known) and a great class of only 10 students. Fun fun fun.

He missed his last day of school because we went on a little trip (more on that later), but here he is with his teachers Mrs. Pittman and Mrs. Kelly...




We went with Dylan and his class on a field trip a couple of weeks ago to a baby animal farm. I didn't think my kids knew how to be gentle until I saw this...


and this...



Claire grabbed this little rabbit and wouldn't let go. Poor rabbit...




Cassie was getting mad at this sheep because it wouldn't leave her and her cup of sheep food alone. She kept saying, "No sheep, go away!"...



And Dylan got a little smothered by these friendly fellas. It was funny...



And one more of Claire...


That's all.

Standing

Okay, so this post is a little more blog worthy than the previous one.

Claire has been pulling herself up to standing position and last week I walked in to her room to find this:





I couldn't believe it! She is getting too big too fast. We sure have fun with this little girl!

Cream puffs

Since I have been lacking cool things to blog about as of late, you get to read this...
I crave desserts all the time, and lately, I crave cream puffs. So I made some on Saturday for the first time and they were sooo good. We ate most of them on Saturday, and on Sunday there were 8 left when we came home from church. As most of you probably are, we are always starving right when we come home from church and needed a little snack to tie us over until Sunday dinner was ready (in 20 min). So after we jumped out of the van, trampled over each other to get into the kitchen, I pulled the cream puffs out of the fridge and 4 sets of hands immediately attacked the puffs. It was so funny. We were all still in our Sunday clothes with our shoes on, Claire was screaming in her car seat on the floor just inches from our feet, while we are feeding our faces and fighting over the last cream puff, which I was nice enough to split with Nate. Cassie came out with 1, Dylan came out with 2, and Nate and I each 2 1/2. All of this was consumed in a matter of about 30 seconds.
Today, I went to the store to buy ingredients to make an Eclair cake for FHE. It was delicious, and there is still some in the fridge.
That's all.
