What More Can I Say??

Roxie's Words of the day

It seems like every day Roxie is using a new word but there is only one word we have been working on she refuses to use but instead she shakes her head. PLEASE!! We know she can say the word because she has used it many times but when it comes to food or her sippy cup she refuses to say it.

So here is a list of the Queen Bees words:
Mommie -Mom-Mama
Daddy - Dada- Dad
Martin - Mart -
Up
Down
Outside
Please
Pretty
Cracker
Happy
Dog
birdie
Who that

I think there maybe a few more but they mostly sound like the word and I am not sure she is really saying the word. She is always ALWAYS babbling but mainly in the car where she has a mirror to look at herself.

“Whatever they grow up to be, they are still our children, and the one most important of all the things we can give to them is unconditional love. Not a love that depends on anything at all except that they are our children.”

Rosaleen Dickson quotes

Its only just begun...

Last night we did our nightly ritual for bed time brush our teeth with the kids, read the Book of Mormon (THANKS MOM), say prayers, hugs and kisses and than stories for Martin before he is tucked into bed with hugs and kisses again. Well last night I read Martin TWO Bearinstein bear stories and than put him into bed with a kiss and like every night he protested and I told him I was going to get water and his dad would be up to singing to him. Apparently when dad arrived he ask "Why is mom ruining my life. She wont give me loves." (Loves is HUGS and KISSES) So Dad came down stairs and back up I went to give him hugs and kisses knowing that he would want songs and come cuddle time even though it was 20 mins past his bedtime. I figured I didn't want to ruin his life anymore so I sang one song, gave HUGS and kisses and said good night. I had no idea I could ruin his life at 3 1/2 years old I thought that only started when he would be in school.
Good thing my feeling do not get hurt easy since having kids otherwise I would be a basket case by now.

I love that little bug and I promise I will not forget to give LOVES even when he is 16 and he thinks that I am RUINING HIS LIFE!! I will ALWAYS AND FOREVER LOVE MY BABY BOY.

New Project

Since Roxie has started to feel better and as long as I am eating every 3 hours I feel great. I have decided to start on a new project and since I can't paint rooms until this baby is born I need something to do that is cheap and fun. I'm starting on making these book purses and than Maternity dress when mom comes out to visit and last but not least Roxie 4th of July Tutu. YEA FOR FEELING BETTER!!

Easter, Family and Earthquake...What more could you want

Easter weekend started off with General Conference or what I was able to watch. I was very grateful I was able to hear\watch Brother Hollands talk because he lays down the law and makes you feel so loved at the same time. Than off to dinner with Grandma and pa Wimmer after the men SECRET MEETING :)
Sunday Morning came along and Martin and Roxie woke up at 6:30am on the dot. Now this would not have been such a big deal if Doug and I had slept but for some reason I had horrible dreams and couldn't get comfortable the whole night. (10 weeks and I can't sleep this is going to be a LONG Pregnancy.) So the Easter Bunny came for a visit and being smart like last years Easter Bunny decided to leave Goldfish Cracker, small bags of cookies, Chalk and a toy plane or a stuff bear in the Easter Baskets. The Bunny thought that Dad and Mom could have an Easter Basket with Candy so they decided when someone was good enough to have a treat.
Than I made Dutch babies or in our family Egg Pie because Martin got really upset one day and thought we were going to be eating a BABY. Than we all start down for a nice quite General Conference or so we thought. Martin would not stop talking, Roxie wanted Martin's Goldfish crackers even thought she had her own and they fought over every single toy in the house. There was time outs and someone might have raised their voice a bit but after 2 hours of kind of sort of hearing talks Dad and I decided next Conference we are going to church. Now this maybe a punished for us but we thought its worth a shot. We than headed off to Grandma and grandpa for Naps before the second session which we both were able to enjoy because everyone had either taken naps or were napping.
After conference Kristi Doug's sister and her boyfriend came over for a wonderful dinner and I guess during that time most everyone but us felt the Baja California earthquake here in East Valley. Doug's cousin who lives about 2 miles from our house in Chandler saw there lights moving in their house and other saw their pool water create waves but we didn't feel anything at the Wimmer's.
I'm personal grateful because I have been though earthquakes and I have never really enjoyed the feeling but it made me think that I need to get batteries for my flashlights and our 72 hour kits finished up because you never know when a much bigger quake could really do some damage in out little desert of Arizona.

Random Pictures!!

I saw these photos the other day and they just made me laugh so hard!!
Martin ate everything two in each hand Roxie's puts everything in her mouth even if there isn't any room.

Every Sunday Martin loves to play with his Grandpa Wimmer. Poor Grandpa Martin seems to think he is a Jungle Gym.
