To infinity and Beyond!

Thats right Buzz Lightyear! Triston has been into Buzz Lightyear ever since we went to Disneyland in August, so we decided to let him be Buzz for Halloween instead of a cute furry animal. He Loves Buzz Lightyear so much, we watched Toy Story 2 at least 2-3 times a week. The other day he pointed up to a light in the sky and told me that it was Buzz Lightyear! Now every time we mention Buzz he pretends to fly! He moves side to side and says "Swoosh, Swoosh, Swoosh, Swoosh!"

Triston trying out his costume!
We got him a Buzz Lightyear Blaster
when we were at Disneyland.
Posing in front of our Halloween decorations.
I told him to stand there, but he had to
sit on one of the pumpkins.
Cheese!


Triston being Buzz! Firing his blaster!



The costume came with a purple hat, but he doesn't like it much.
It also came with the light up Buzz glasses.


Little chef!

So this morning I decided to make Triston some breakfast and he said "Momma I cook!" He tried to stand on his little stool which he wasn't tall enough to reach, so I brought over a chair so he could see what was going on. I already had the eggs cooking in the pan and he grabbed the spatula and started cooking scrambled eggs. He did a good job! I thought that I should document him cooking for the first time, so if he becomes a Professional Chef I could tell him that he started cooking at 2 1/2 years old.

Triston cooking for the first time!

It was a little scary, because we have a gas stove, but luckily he didn't burn himself!


Eggs Anyone?


He was so proud of himself! He even sprinkled cheese over his eggs!



The Finnished Product!

Sleeping standing up!

So the other day I found Triston taking his nap standing up! Silly boy, I don't know how long he was sleeping like that, but I thought it was funny. He loves to sleep with his "B" (aka blanket) over his head. He didn't look to uncomfortable, but I didn't want him to have numb legs when he woke up, so I did tuck him into his bed. What a funny little boy I have!


This is how I found him!


Out like a light!

Lower view!

Scrapbook-aholic

Hmm.... Have you ever thought that you were addicted when your dinning room table and counter top was covered in scrapbook madness? I have! I admit that I am scrapbook-aholic! Well I have been using the dinning room table for the last year, and I decided I need to get my own space. So my awesome Sister-in-law Amie was searching on ksl classifieds and she found me an awesome scrapbook cabinet! Thank Amie!
My Dinning room mess!


I also take over the front room!


Ta Da! Here is my amazing scrapbook cabinet! I got it at such a good deal! Thanks to my husband's bargaining skills I even got it $100 cheaper than they were asking. It is made out of knotty alder and is white washed. The funny thing was I found a flier about this cabinet from
and expo and I looked it up online and it retails at $2400 and I only got it for $700!

Thanks to my brother Alex, my husband and the other 3 men from my ward
that had to carry it into the house!



Here is the inside peek of my scrapbook world!
The sad thing is that I already have it 2/3rds full!


I love the fact that my Cricut Expression fits perfectly!
I love all the drawers and all the slots to hold 12 x12 paper,
and best of all it has its own flip out table if I ever need to use it!
I LOVE my scrapbook cabinet!

Monkey Mischeif

So my cleaver little boy decided last weekend that he didn't need my help
to wash his hands that he is a big boy and can do it himself! He is growing
up so fast! In these pictures he is actually washing his shoe.

He places his potty stool by the sink.

He grabs onto the counter top and pulls himself up!
Go Muscles!

He is climbing the cabnet.


He balences on his belly and is able to turn on the water.


He turnes of the water


And finally lowers himself back down to safety!
He think that he is so big! He just does it the hard way!
