Oh, how I love the new things Lily has been saying. She says:
Num on-- (come on) and waves her arm for you to follow her.
Don't know or non't know-- and puts her hands up and shrugs her shoulders.
Yip--This is her new way of saying yes to everything. She used to say ya. But now it is yip.
Where my Cal Cal-- I love when she wakes up and says this.
cho cho-- Cereal
pretzy-- pretzels
poop--and points to her diaper. Maybe it is getting close to potty training?
neinstime-- Baby Einstein videos
She can pretty much tell me what she wants now. And she copies what I say to her. But when she wants to have a conversation with me it is all a bunch of really fast jiborish. It is pretty darn funny. I just love my little Lily bug.

Sacrament prayer
When we were watching conference a month ago, Calvin was sitting on the couch and he just started saying the sacrament prayer. Jon and I looked at each other and went, "wow." I guess he is listening is sacrament meeting.
Breaking Dawn
I finished the last Twilight book right after Moab. I really liked it, even though it was kind of strange in some parts. I love happy endings, so I liked how she worked everything out for all of the characters. All and all it was a fun series to read but it took up too much of my time. I can't wait for the rest of the movies to come out.

Moab
Jon and our next door neighbor Ed have been working on their Moab vehicles for months. Every spare minute has been spent in the drive way preparing for Easter weekend. Ed had never been to Moab and he was stoked when we invited him to come with us. With the deadline so close, a lot of extra money was spent that wasn't in the budget, and a lot of extra time that was not on the agenda.
After the months and months of prep work on the blazer we finally made it to Moab; however, we did not make it there without stories to tell. On the way to Spanish Fork Canyon the blazer started rocking like crazy on the freeway. I thought we were going to die for sure. We got to spanish without me peeing my pants and Jon bought new shocks for the blazer and put them on in the parking lot. It helped the rocking a little bit but we now call the blazer the big blue house boat. I actually got motion sickness riding down there.
In Moab we had fun four wheeling. However, we discovered the body mounts on the boat were broken, the steering box broke, Ed's 4 wheel drive was not working and so on and so on. More time on the pavement in the hotel parking lot and things were working again. And more wheeling. All and all the blazer did really well. It went anywhere Jon could mange to steer it and some places he didn't mean to steer it. The kids and I ended up driving home with my parents just in case the steering box completley fell off the frame while Jon was driving home. Luckily, we all made it home with no problem, except the snow storm that kept us in Spanish fork canyon for way too long. And the boat sits happily in the driveway waiting for some TLC from Jon.

Entertainment in the Jeep
The kids were having so much fun laughing at Grandma in the jeep when we were on the trail Fins and Things in Moab.
Pictures
My mom bought all of the granddaughters the same Easter dress and so my sister-in-law Jaime and I took the kids to get pictures done for Grandma and Grandpa. The ages of the kids were as follows, 4, 3, 2 (x2), and 21 months. How do you think it went? Yes, you are right, it was crazy. We would get 2 kids to sit and 2 more would stand up. We did end up getting a few cute pictures though.
