A video is in the works, should be done by tomorrow night! :)</div>
<br />
This year brought:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Vacations: Lake Powell, Utah (twice? three?) and camping.</li>
<li>Skills: Sawyer is now an excellent swimmer, swims the length of the pool multiple times! Rides his bike without training wheels. Improved his skills in soccer and basketball :) And he can actually help me clean!! Hooray!</li>
<li>Smarts: He is learning how to read, working on sight words, loves math, taught himself to count to 100 and finished his first year of preschool, dual language kindergarten two months away!</li>
<li>Funny: After explaining that hamburgers are made from beef which comes from cow he had a total light bulb moment. "That's why they call it Old McDonald's!!"</li>
<li>Likes: Superheroes, Harry Potter, Avatar, Mario, Sonic, Cake Boss, dogs, swimming, riding his bike, playing PIG (bball), pizza, lemonade and ice cream!</li>
</ul>
<div>
This was a list off the top of my head, things I don't want to forget. There is so much I could say about this boy and how much I love and adore him. Putting this video together just reminds me how smitten I am with him...does that ever stop?? </div>

I guess living closer to family and Quilt Story taking more and more of my time, I left the blog go by the wayside. But I do plan on doing a catch-up by the end of January. But today is Oliver's 3rd Birthday video. It takes me a couple hours to do these videos, but I really hope that I do them forever! We watch them all the time and I think it's just a fun way to document our lives. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

We are seeing friends and family everyday and doing a lot of fun things. Here are a couple of funny stories I don't want to forget:<br />
<br />
<i>Sawyer: Mom, I want to get 10 dogs</i>.<br />
Mom: Nobody really has 10 dogs, how about we get 1 to start with?<br />
<i>S: How about 4?</i><br />
M: Let's name the people we know, and how many dogs they have. How many dogs does FiFi have?<br />
<i>S: 2</i><br />
M: How many dogs does Peb have?<br />
<i><b>S: 1...Mom, does <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Caylee_Anthony">Casey Anthony</a> have any dogs?</b></i><br />
<i><b><br />
</b></i><br />
<i><b><br />
</b></i><br />
Me: Ollie, what do you want to be when you grow up?<br />

<br />
Well the last couple of weeks have been crazy! My amazing in-laws flew from Florida to take care of my boys while I went to International Quilt Market in SLC. It was so busy, fun, crazy, hectic, overwhelming, exhausting, made me wanna cry, laughed a lot AND I am so doing it again and again. If you like to craft or fabric or if you're a girl, you would have loved it. So amazing. This is a pic of our booth and you can see <a href="http://quiltstory.blogspot.com/2011/05/quilt-market-spring-2011.html">this post</a> on Quilt Story for more pictures.<br />

Just hours after I left I get a call that Ollie had been throwing up non-stop. The next few days my poor baby was so sick, losing weight, not keeping anything down. Bless Celia!!! Oh my goodness! They didn't leave the house all week. Sad.<br />

I think they're friends again. <br />
<br />
We had a lot of fun when I got home...including Chuck E. Cheese, swimming, shopping, Jeopardy challenges, games. The last night they took me out for my birthday (tomorrow :) at a really cool local place called Joe's Farm Grill. It's all so nice and fresh, you eat outside and the kids can run around. Here are some pictures we got there.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Okay, if you see him please don't throw him in a pool or lake...he's just a beginner. But it's crazy how fast kids learn! He's a little fishie now. He can swim probably 10-15 feet on his own, even coming up for a breath! He loves diving to the bottom to get his torpedos too. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Just ask him how to swim, he loves to give people lessons on dry land.

It was a blast. Sawyer and Ollie had 8 cousins playing with them non-stop, we went bowling, ate out, saw a movie, celebrated Easter, went swimming, swimming and more swimming. Apparently it is STILL SNOWING in Utah!! My brother Dan and his family kept extending their trip because they couldn't stand the thought of going back to the snow!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Well it's pretty much illegal in AZ for your kids to not know how to swim. Not really, but as much as we're at the pool, I would love for him to be a great swimmer. I never learned how to <i>really </i>swim, but daddy and grandpa are great swimmers, so it must be in him, right?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">His first class he got nervous half way through and wanted his life jacket back on and to swim with me and Ollie. But after a pep talk with daddy, he did great the second time. He's really proud of himself actually.

And soon it will be ridiculously hot, and our AC will run day and night. BUT the nice thing about extreme heat compared to snow, I can still go out. We can still drive to the mall and other fun places. We can still go outside (at like 9 pm). And swimming. We can swim in the morning and in the late afternoon, and nothing makes for a fun way to pass the time like swimming.Meganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02336245306718850844noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1573398560542152927.post-30474234197285949862011-03-10T22:47:00.000-08:002011-03-10T22:47:21.383-08:00According to SawyerE recently took a trip..on a plane...here was the conversation over the phone:<br />
<i>(Although this was days into the trip, S thinks daddy is just flying round and round in the sky)</i><br />
<br />
S: did you get chips and drink yet?<br />
S: did you get white pop or orange pop?<br />
S: tell the airplane man to go super duper fast<br />
<br />
<br />
Every phone call would start with, "Daddy I want you to be home <i>any minute</i>!"<br />
<br />
<br />
Oliver was climbing onto my parents counter, and then heading toward the stove which was NOT on.<br />
Me: Ollie baby that is not a good idea, get down.<br />
S: Ollie, do you want to be on AFV??? (america's funniest videos)<br />
<br />
He stole the camera. Here's the proof.<br />
Pretty much what he thinks about and does everyday. <i><b>Sports, sticks, cars and his brother.</b></i><br />

And truth was, I was in Utah for FOUR weeks!! And although I could (and do) giggle all day long at the photo of Ollie as <b><i>AquaMan</i></b> in the last post, it's best I caught up.<br />
<br />
<b>UTAH</b> Snowy. Family. Cold. (What was I thinking?!? I left AZ and it was in the 70's!!) I got to see my nephew get his Eagle Scout. I had girls nights. I crafted, a lot. I met with some fabric designer people in prep for Quilt Market. (SO scary, SO exciting). I got to see friends. I had lunch with my mommy and watched murder shows with my dad. :) Here are some pics I know you can't wait to see! :)<br />

I see the video at the gym and have to try not to watch, otherwise I turn into a puddle on the treadmill. It is home videos of her with her family and just has really sweet lyrics. The last bit is:<br />
<br />
<i>And I didn't know if you knew</i><br />
<i>So I'm taking this chance to say</i><br />
<i>That I had the best day</i><br />
<i>With you today</i> <br />
<br />
And today was the best day. The little boys and I ran some errands, we went to the library and picked out random new books. Then I found a calendar and saw that Santa was at a local park, we walked right up and got to see him, no wait at all. We took pictures and walked around downtown Chandler. Afterwards we went and fed ducks at the park and played. We came home and watched <i>Yes, Virginia</i> and it was cute. When it was done Sawyer turned to me with a big smile. Then I read them Polar Express. It was just a nice, happy day with my little boys. <br />
<br />
The other night, about 20 minutes after I laid the boys down, I saw Sawyer run across the open doorway. I was sitting at the kitchen table sewing and he ran into the dining room. He was checking our advent calendar where I told him a little elf comes every night and leaves a Hershey kiss for him and Ollie. <i>He's been known to wake at 6 am, go get the candy, eat it, and go back to sleep for an hour or two.</i> After he saw that the elf hadn't come he came into the kitchen and I explained that he wouldn't come until the whole house was dark and we were all sleeping. He asked if I was going to sleep after I finished sewing. I said yes :) I told him he needed to go back to bed and he listened and started walking to his room. He turned around after a few steps and said, "Merry Christmas mom." It was just such a sweet and sincere moment. I told E that I think that moment will stick in my mind forever. Just a time where your heart unexpectedly swells with love. My sweet three year old boy in his bright green footie monster jammies turning and wishing me a merry Christmas. <br />

I'm deciding how Christmas will feel without cold, snow...all of it. Growing up in Colorado and Utah...then moving to Missouri, I've always had a cold Christmas. Last year we spent Christmas day in Florida, but we celebrated our own Christmas a few days before. Actually, jury just came in. It's not the same. It is still fun and exciting, people decorate their homes and everything does seem cheerier, but the whole feel is just different. Boo.<br />
<br />
It took me a bit longer to get our Christmas set up this year, but it's finally done. To see the "pretty" finished pictures and more of the home decor stuff, I just did a post on our blog <a href="http://www.freshpoppydesign.blogspot.com/">Fresh Poppy</a>, so check it out :)<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I've been trying to keep the tradition (from my family) of a new ornament for the kids each year. This year they chose stars.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Isn't that the best?? Like a million ornaments on one branch, everything on one side of the tree...and they couldn't be prouder :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This year I also got them their own tree to have in their room. They chose to decorate it blue, of course :) Daddy was proud. I've promised that they can sleep with the tree on for Christmas eve.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
