Where do babies come from?

For the past few days I have been watching 2 cute boys in our ward while their mom is out of town and dad is at work. At ages 6 & 9, they are hilarious and I have definitely had my ear talked off. I've had a fun time and want to share with you a couple of my favorite quotes from the past 3 days...

#1 While we are driving in the car Older Boy (OB) is telling Younger Boy (YB) about a funny story that happened before (YB) was born. Then (OB) goes on to talk about how a little while after that his mom went to the hospital and had (YB). This is the dialogue following...

(YB): "Do the moms get all cut up when they have a baby?"
(OB): "No it comes out of somewhere."
(YB): "Where does it come out of?"
(OB): "I don't know, some special place. You would have to ask a girl."
(YB): "Lexie do you know where babies come out of?"
Me: "Yes but I think that's something you should ask your mom about."
(YB): "So are you saying that you really don't know?"
Me: "No I know, I just think your mom should be the one to tell you."

Thankfully after convincing both of them that I really did know but that they would have to ask their mom about it, we moved on to a different subject. I swear, isn't that the one question you pray you don't get asked when your watching someone else's kids!?

#2 We stopped by our condo for a second to pick Thor up on our way to football practice. Let me preface this by saying that our condo is a weird setup, sort of like a hotel where there is a long hallway inside with all the front doors down each side. I hate this setup because other people in the building smoke and in turn the hallway stinks like smoke. Definitely wish they were all outdoor entries. But anyway, as we are walking up to the door OB comments about how it smells like smoke. When we walk inside our condo, Landon is home from school and YB asks him "Is that smoke smell out there from everyone lighting their fireplaces?"

Ok so maybe these are the kind of stories where you just have to be there. Everything is always more funny in person rather than typed out unless your an amazing storyteller/writer which I am not, but hopefully you got a good laugh.

20 Weeks

I will be 20 weeks with baby #2 in just a couple of days. Baby boy #2 that is! Half way! I'm finally getting around to taking a picture of myself and writing down a little bit about this pregnancy.  It's definitely been different this time around both emotionally and physically.  Of course I have another child to attend to so I can't nap whenever I want, I felt more sick this time around and it lasted longer, and worst of all for me is the teenage acne I've developed.  I don't intend for this to be a sob story, but I've never been the girl that everyone says "You're so pretty" to and I've never been the skinny girl. But I have always had really great skin. To be honest, most of my confidence in my outward appearance is because I have my mom's skinny legs and I have clear skin and a natural tan. Well these days I literally cringe when I look in the mirror. I've NEVER had acne. I've always had the occasional breakout tha...

Another Week, Another Hike

My aunt, mom, and I headed up Holbrook Canyon last Saturday to take in more of Fall's goodness. This canyon is just above the Bountiful, Utah Temple. The last time I hiked it was ages ago, so I forgot about how long of a hike it is. I looked up the mileage online which said 8 miles up and back. Well I don't know if that's accurate or what because after we had gone what I swear was 4-5 miles, we still weren't to the top and had to turn around so we could make it back before dark. A lot of the trail is uphill and it's not a really easy hike, so maybe we were just making slower time and didn't go as far as I thought, but maybe next time we'll actually make it to the top. Even though we didn't make it, it was still worth the beautiful scenery. As we got toward the bottom as the sun was practically gone, the canyon was glowing from all the brilliant colored leaves. It was seriously magical, as cheesy as that sounds. It's a shaded hike, almos...
