Bath Time
So in our new apartment PW has his own bath. Yes that's right- his own bath! And so he gets to bathe every night before bed in the tub instead of shower every morning with mom- boring! Plus he loves the tub way more! 90
And yes- his hand is where you think it is. He has also recently discovered his manhood and is quite fascinated with it :)

Welcoming my new niece!
I want to officially announce the birth of my new niece Violette. I can tell we'll be pals because her name starts with a "V" just like mine. Weighing 6lb 11oz and measuring 20 inches long she graced her family with her presence on June 24th at 4am.
I had a little picture on my phone of the baby, Cathy, and Ella in the hospital. It was beautiful. I was dying to see more pictures. I called my mom to have her tell me how cute the little princess was. Well she let me talk to Shae for a second. I told him I was feeling a little "auntie anxiety" because I didn't have any more pictures of his new baby. Well I was quickly put in my place when he reminded me that my anxiety was nothing compared to the anxiety they were feeling with 3 kids! Oh yeah- I kinda didn't think about that! Sorry Shae :) But he sent me another little picture on my phone and this is the best it will show up. But she really is a cutie- I can't wait to meet her. Congratulations to Shae and Cathy. Good job guys- and good work Cathy! Hope that you guys and Ella and Con Con all have a fun time getting to know your new baby! Love you guys!

WINCO
Ok so I officially have a new love- it's called WINCO- acronym for Washington, Idaho, Nevada, Colorado and Oregon. Well now it's here in Utah- and so I think they should change it to UWINCO (where you win) or perhaps IWUNCO (where I definitely won!) Ok so that is totally nerdy but let me tell you what I bought for $14.25...
1 huge watermelon
1 large canteloupe
3 medium Fuji apples
3 mangos
1 small box strawberries
2 grapefruit
3 avocados
2 cucumbers
1 stalk celery
1 bunch radishes
1 small bag baby carrots
Holy cow!! IWUN (co) and UWIN (co) every time you go there! And the produce here was not like it is at many of your other local grocery stores. Everything was beautiful and ripe. I also strolled through the bulk section to pick myself up a couple cups of a wild rice mixture that looked delicious. I even grabbed a handful (not with my hands though!) of one of my favorite candy treats- peach rings- for 50 cents. This place was heaven to me. I will never buy my groceries at Wal-Mart again. Also- if anyone knows anything about Bountiful Baskets I would like to get a few more details. The website is alittle confusing. Please email me or tell my mom about it! We're so excited to try it!
My $14.25 stretched to the max this week and I was extremely proud to walk in the door with my spoils. Every morning has been filled with strawberries and mangos for breakfast- it's been wonderful. And today- cubed watermelon and canteloupe to take to a family party- a total of $3.46. I didn't even care that I had to bag my own groceries!!! (a minor downside to the spoils of WINCO)

Chili Lime Popcorn
Oh yeah- you read that right. I thought I would get creative today and make some popcorn- so I popped a few cups worth. Well then I tried to think of what I wanted to put on it!! I searched my cupboards high and low and checked my pantry (oh yea by the way- they are MINE now since we have our own apartment!!) for yummy things to go on my popcorn. I laid out a cookie sheet and poured white and dark baking chocolate on some popcorn and then added raisins- it was yummy!!! For the rest I mixed some red chili pepper, salt, black pepper and garlic powder together. I tossed the popcorn lightly in butter and then tossed in the seasonings. Well it wasn't quite right so I added some lime juice. Holy canoli! It was perfect. A yummy and healthy snack with a kick! I might make that more often than I should... :)

The View From My Window
As most of you know- we have moved! We finally got our own place- well- renting any way! We live at The Junction in downtown Ogden. I am heading out today to take more pictures of all the fun things around us but I wanted to share with you "the view from my window". 
This is the Ogden temple which we can see out the Northern window from our bedroom. It's beatiful.
And these are the mountains that welcome the sun in the East at 6:00 n the morning- we're definitely going to have to get some of those blackout curtains.
