to throw Michael's cell phone in the toilet.
It's been one of those weeks.
If anyone has an old Verizon phone, I'd love you forever. I'll pay for it. We don't get upgrades until August.
Fabulous. Week.

Things we're into...
I just feel like blogging about our most recent interests...
AUBRIE-
Her interests have not wavered. She is still extremely into MOM. Fun...
She also loves the park now a days. Swings and slides are her favorite!
HAILEY-
She loves jumping on her new "jumperine" we bought her. She thinks its so much fun to put all her dolls or animals (or sister) on it and jump around!
Another thing she is into lately, is wearing Aubs clothes. Every morning she goes to Aubrie's closest and puts on her clothes, she insists on wearing them. She's a pretty petite little girl and Aubrie's clothes are 18 months so they fit fine, but it's just funny.
Just like Aubs, she loves the park too. The other day when we were getting ready to go, I was loading Aubrie in and told her to go tell dad we were ready and lets go. So she proceeds to go into our room, where he was on the computer, and screamed at the TOP of her lungs, DAAAAAAD GET IN THE CAR RIGHT NOOOOOOOOW! She's never been so demanding, it was kind of funny!
Michael loves working out! He has these push up bars that he uses all the time and loves! He can crank out over 300 push ups in one sitting. Crazy guy!
They recently came out with a product called The Perfect Pull Up, that he has been eying. Maybe I'll have to get him it for Fathers day. 
He's also into work, as usual. He got Employee of the Month for April. We're really proud of him!
SABRINA-
Hmm, I have a lot of interests right now. I've been making bows like CRAZY. Mostly clips, and some bows. Here is Aubrie sporting one of my clippies!
I also am enjoying the Bachelor this season. I wanted to boycott it after last season where the idiot sent both girls home. But this season has been good. My favorite is Shayne. At first I didn't like her because she seemed snotty and high maintenance. But she actually seems very real. And yes, she is high maintenance, but she knows it and is proud of it! I'm excited for the season finale on Monday.
NBA playoff have been fun too. I am a Phoenix Sun fan, by default (lived there), plus I love their players. But my next favorite team is the San Antonio Spurs. And since they knocked the Suns out, I am rooting for them. Their last two games they got creamed, but tonight they played AMAZING. Love it! And no, I don't only watch basketball because I have a crush on Raja Bell and Tony Parker :).
My last obsession... ur, interest... is bargain shopping. Lol, I wont get into this, Lets just say that for this following picture, I paid 38 dollars total, I have 80 on a walgreens gift card now and 85 dollars in coupons towards my next purchase (that I will eventually put on a gift card). So they paid me over 125 dollars to take this out of their store.
27 toothpastes
12 razors (one in my shower)
7 candy bars
8 popcorns
82 covergirl items
12 zantacs
5 body washes
Will I use all this? Probably not, but how can I resist when they are PAYING ME to take it. I also used those coupons they gave me to get cereal at albertsons, I have 20 boxes and paid 3 dollars. Can't beat that!

Growing up...
That is exactly what my children are doing. It's inevitable. Sometimes you just don't want them to change at all, stay their sweet innocent childlike selves. But some changes are welcome... These changes were more then welcome in our home.
Hailey is now 100% potty trained. She did it herself one day. She has had maybe 2 accidents in 3 weeks. She even stays dry all night long. She loves wearing her big girl undies and would change them 5x a day if I let her. She adores the "wittle" potty at church that is just her size. She tries to leave sacrament constantly saying she has to pee, just so she can go use that toilet. Silly girl!
Aubrie is now (at nearly 14 months) a walker! She still crawls here and there, but she is now starting to chose walking over crawling. We knew she could do it, she just didn't care to. Shes much happier now too. And she's sleeping better at night again, could there be a connection?
While seeing my children grow and become their own little people can be heart wrenching at times, seeing them accomplish milestones like these make it all worth it.

Park Fun
So my neighbor Jill and I took our girls down to the park today. It was a nice day, mid sixties. Hailey was a brat the whole time. It was more then obvious she didn't have a nap today. But that is a complete lose lose situation. If I put her down for a nap she stays up until practically midnight. If I don't put her down for a nap she is cranky as can be. Oh well, I deal, and Jill is a true blue friend, she deals with my girls crankiness and doesn't mind one bit (I hope).
Hopefully in the near (you hear that girls, NEAR) future, park dates will be more fun because our 1 year olds will be walking. Ha! 
-Amelia and Aubrie-
The girls riding in the wagon to the park! Hailey refused to go in my stroller be the wagon is
SO MUCH COOLER!

Aubers playing in the bars!

It's so fun to have neighbors that are friends! Thanks for playing will us Jill!!
p.s. The high tomorrow is 52, then in the 40s the next day. Can it just warm up and STAY warm?

It's been a while...
Just thought I would post a quick update on where we've been. My best friend Holly, and her adorable son come into town last Wednesday. We had tons of fun, went shopping and ate way too much! I seriously gained 2 lbs while she was here. We stayed up until 3 in the morning doing puzzles and talking. Hailey was absolutely in love with Tyler and did NOT want to send him home. We didn't let her go to the airport with us to take Holly home because we knew she would have a major meltdown. Anyway, thanks so much Holly for coming out here!! We love you and miss you already! -Oh and as usual, we took no pictures of us, or any of the kids together... we're dorks-
Other then that we've just been keeping busy around the house. I'm working on getting my 13 1/2 month old to walk. Crazy girl can do it, she often walks to me from the couch or whatever else she is holding onto, 9+ steps. But she's too lazy to do it all the time. And Hailey is working on something big right now too, and doing WONDERFULLY but I don't wanna talk about it too much or I'll jinx it!
The weather has been BEAUTIFUL around here lately. We hit the high 70s on saturday, sunday and Monday. But it was just a mean joke. Today it is 35 and WINDY. It's freezing! The high is like 45, not my idea of a funny joke. We loved the few days we had though. The girls played outside a lot and went to the park. We were soaking the sun up! Too bad it didn't last. Bummer. A few more weeks maybe.
Well I'll come back later and post some pictures...
