Egg Coloring Extravaganza

So we have never colored eggs with Aden before. He was too little both Easters before so we got pleanty of pictures of the great event :D!

How to get Awesome Spider Man Eggs:

Step 1 get all the dies ready and in front of you.

Step 2 Kiss the eggs and reassure them they will be beautiful when they come out.

Step 3 Drop egg in and close eyes to prevent splash from getting in....Aden wasn't very soft with his eggs...only one cracked though :D

Step 4 Remove beautiful eggs and let dry.






Step 5 Apply Stickers and Enjoy.

The end Result!

Shaun the Sheep

It is a miracle! We have found a cartoon that spans the ages. I always knew Wallis and Gromit had something special but from the same creators comes a series of 5 minute long shorts staring Shaun the Sheep. And we all LOVE it!!! Aden asks first thing in the morning "Sheep?" I wait anxiously for a new episode to come on and I even record them on our DVR just in case we miss one and of course Chris as to watch the new ones when he gets home from work :D! So I googled Shaun the Sheep and found these fun animations and there might even be future blog layouts featuring the love able fleeced friend!

New Spring Layouts

If you can tell from my new background, I have been working on some sping layouts. This one is more Easter than the others. Check them out by clicking here

Fishes Fishes Everywhere!

So This weekend we made the treck to Logan to see Mary in Joseph and the tecnicolor dream coat. Well because sometimes I can be dence I left the camera in it's case pretty well the whole trip. The only thing I got pictures of, is our trip to the aquarium on the way up to Logan. We had so much fun with Luke, Mary and Tianna plus Courtney, Dale and my mom were there too! It was so much fun. We went to the play, where Mary along with the rest of the cast did fantastic! Aden and Tianna had sooooo much fun I had a hard time not laughing at them the whole time. Aden would go around calling "Tianna, Tianna, Tianna" to which she would follow behind saying "What Aden, What Aden, What Aden" ...too funny :D. We did some shopping and visited my Uncle Mike and Aunt Tony. All in all a great fun packed weekend.

SO now back to the Aquarium. We met up with one of my best friends in the whole world, Lacie, at the Living Planet Aquarium. We had lunch and then went and saw all the exhibits. Aden again loved every minute of it!!! He is such a fish lover I can't even begin to wonder what kind of job he will have when he grows up. So here are the pics!

Aden and the Puppies!

Aden loves playing with the puppies and here he is keeping them warm. Now every time I put his jacket on and zip it up he points to the inside and says "puppies seepin'" Translation Puppies Sleeping. Which I take as to mean he would like me to fetch the puppies and put them in his coat so they can sleep there. :) We are excited for the weather to get warmer so Aden can play outside more, something he really enjoys. Along with puppies Aden is growing up and getting smarter. Last time I posted an update he was able to count to 5 now he can get to 10...and occasionally he puts the numbers in the right order :D. He is also saying a lot more sentences and actually making sense. We are currently working on shapes and colors. Aden can pick out a star shape and thoroughly enjoys saying "yellow" although I am not sure yet if he could identify it by color just yet. He has expert form on the two-year-old tantrum and practices frequently. I can only hope that the part where he thrusts himself head first on to the ground, resulting in rug burn on the forehead, is something he will learn to avoid.

Too much fun in the DUST!

So Chris borrowed a fourwheeler from a friend and decided he couldn't live without doing doughnuts in the lot next door. Here is his dust devil animation!

I am shrinking!

So I debated long and hard before I decided to add this post to my blog. It is a very personal situation and a very real fight for me. For several years now I have been dealing with a condition called PCOS. If you want more info on PCOS leave me a comment with your email and I will get back to you. Long story short PCOS has caused several health concerns and also caused Aden to be thus far an only child. One of the major issues I deal with from PCOS is extreme weight gain. Well if you will notice from my blog I avoid pictures at all cost and it is only for a family picture that I deal with it because there are two other people to detract the attention to. But I started seeing a new Doctor and was finally officially diagnosed with the condition. I have been taking some new medication that actually battles the underlying cause of PCOS which is Insulin Resistance (again I have more information on request). In the last three months I have lost almost 30lbs total. I still have a long ways to go but it feels amazing to be making progress.

Hop on Pop!

Valentine's and President's day weekend....I know, I know, that was a week ago. But I wanted to add a couple of pictures. We had a full, very fun weekend. Luke, Mary and Tianna came down from Logan and we stayed up way late playing games and talking. These pictures are courtesy of Courtney because I used her camera to take them and she just emailed them to me. Well while staying up late Chris had taken some pain medication for his shoulder...which was hurting him very very badly. These meds made it impossible for him to stay awake...believe me he tried really hard. Aden decided he would climb on dad. Really I think he was super tiered but couldn't settle down. But he ended up on daddy's head, making good quality sleep hard to find;).

Picture Tag!

Okay so I got tagged and I followed the rules the best I could. I was suposed to pick the 6th photo out of the 6th folder, but it didn't work out so good so here is the closest thing to it. This is Aden at the fair after he took a trip down the huge inflatable slide with water on it. I think it tramatized the poor boy!

Happy Birthday Blog!!!!

So it has been a full year since I started blogging! Technically it was on February 6th that I first started blogging but I figured this is close enough!

When All Else Fails Say it with CHOCOLATE!!

For all my friends and family out there I just wanted to say I LOVE YOU! What better way to tell you all than with a new animation that says it in the best substance ever! CHOCOLATE!!!

Feel free to copy and paste it to your own blog to share the message with people you love! I will post a sidebar sized version on Bingham Blog Backgrounds for any one who wants it:).

New Hair Cut!

Here is a great Picture of Aden's new hair cut! Thanks to Courtney (I stole this picture off her blog)....if you are wondering why his hair is so short when it is still so cold, well I had the clippers out and was trimming the bottom part of his hair and trimming around his ears...well the back went okay but while trimming around his ears Aden decided the haircut was not his thing at all and moved very suddenly.....from the picture above you can imagine what the result of that one movement was....it took a nice sized chunk out of the hair on the top of his head. Well after deciding it was too far gone to try and cover it up I commenced an hour long hair cutting session that was anything but fun. After which we both had to bath and change clothes and during which a lot of frustration was had on both sides. Funny thing about it was, I cut Chris's hair the same length a couple days before. So now I just say they got twin hair cuts and try not to miss his beautiful long thick hair too much.

Birthday Shout Out!!!

Happy Birthday to Laura! We love you and wanted to let you know you are special and that we are thinking of you and we miss you.

Yikes!.....Oh it's just you

So here they are my little blue nosed boys! Aden got a play dough play set for Christmas and well we have had some fun adventures so far. This is by far my favorite! Chris and Aden were playing with play dough this morning. For some reason, beyond my comprehension, the boys decided to hide their noses with the blue polymer. After doing so they decided they would find mommy to give her blue nose kisses. Aden was so cute and when he caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror he made the funniest face and couldn't stop looking at himself! I myself loved the blue nosed kisses and thought it was great! Sorry for the poor quality of photo I didn't have my camera on me so it was taken with my phone. Regardless these are the cutest blue nosed boys I have ever seen!!!
