Ok so I know it has been a while since I have really blogged but my computer is so tempramental and is not letting me upload my photos and a story without photos just isn't really a story(at least in my opinion) So I uploaded some pics at my moms house and here goes the catch up of our lives.
Last weekend we went up to Mesquite with some of my family to hang out and start Spring Break off. We pretty much hung out, ate and shot off all the guns our family owns. It was really fun just to get away from our house and our daily routine and shake things up. Plus Watching the boys act like they are cowboys from the old west was the BEST!!Check it out. Oh yeah the close up of Ethan was right after he shot a gun for the first time! That is my all time fav pic
Now we have been trying to get Lincoln to eat baby food. First I tried rice cereal, hated it, so then I tried oatmeal, hated that, so I said screw the cereal I'm gonna start with the veggies. I always give my kids green veggies first then orange then fruits. Well I started with green beans knowing that he was going to hate that as well(because all my kids hated green beans) Nope I was wrong, Loved green beans hates peas!! This boy is going to be my picky eater. GREAT! but here are picture of him enjoying green beans :P
Next on our update is Matt's Birthday. Matt turned the Big 27 on the 16th of March and I wanted to but all these cute pictures from Matts past on but again my computer is stupid so you will just have to settle for pictures from his birthday dinner(which of course was Dutch Oven chicken & potatoes, Yummmm)
This is a picture taken at Matt Birthday dinner of Lincoln & his cousin Sienna who is two weeks younger than Lincoln. They are just so cute!
Then, on St Patricks day me & my mom went to Utah to get some stuff to make some crafts. It was a quick trip drive up get what we needed and drive back. While we were there mom got Raegan these really cute PJ's that make her feel like a princess. The picture of Lincoln was just one I took during one of our driving breaks.
Then Friday it was off to Vegas to spend time with Grandma Sugar(Hafen) She got the kids lunch, took them to the mall to see the Easter bunny and then it was off to Build-A-Bear where Raegan made a bunny and Ethan made a Monkey. The monkey however was not Ethans 1st pick. His first pick was a bright pink bunny, and I didn't think his dad would appreciate his 1st choice so I showed him some other like the monkey, hinting that he was like curious george. It was so cute watching them make their animals and of course our build-a-bear animal would not be complete without sounds so Ethan picked out the Monkey sound and Raegan got Grandma's voices saying "Raegan. Grandma loves you" She absolutely loves it! She is always pushing the button to hear Grandma say she loves her. It is really cute. And as you look at our picture from our trip to the mall you will notice there are no pictures of the kids with the Easter bunny, 1) because you have to buy a picture before they will let you take a picture with your camera & 2) Raegan was scared to death of the Easter bunny, she would not let go of Grandma. So there you have, who needs a picture of the Easter bunny anyway, we would rather take a picture with the White rabbit from Alice than the Easter bunny anyways!!
After the Mall, it was off to Grandmas house to go Easter egg hunting. There was so many eggs because it was only my kids, because Derek & Dylan are in Cali & Aliya unfortunately is in Provo, so my kids had no cousins to play with, but I don't think they cared once they figured out that now they got all the eggs(with all the candy) for themselves. Beside the fact that we were missing important members of the "Hafen" family we had alot of fun, especially Mikey!!

The Cutest Thing EVER!!
A couple of days ago me and the kids were playing outside after their naps. I showed them the "wishing flowers" and told them that they had to close their eyes, make a wish, and then blow all the stuff off the flowers. Well they did and it wasn't anything spectacular, they just copied me. But then after a while had past Ethan picked up another flower and said(out loud) with his eyes shut, "I wish for a train!" and then blew the flower. It was the cutest thing I ever saw, so I ran in and grabbed my camera. After that I think they picked all the "wishing flowers" from my yard and made different wishes. Here are some pictures from our afternoon of wishing :)

Yes that is right Power Rangers!
Well It official, Ethan marks the 2nd generation of Power Ranger fans in my family. My little brothers loved Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. When I said loved I mean fanatic, they even had the costumes and everything. Well now on ABC kids, Saturday morning Ethan loves to watch Power Ranger: Operation Overdrive. It is so fun to watch him because when they start fighting, he tries to do all these ninja moves and he start jumping of the furniture. It is hilarious. Also whenever he is wrestling with his dad or play fighting he talks into his wrist(like he is looking at a watch) and says: "operation overdrive!" and then starts spin kicking and running around. It is so cute! You gotta love having a boy!!
