Little Golden Books

Hey all, I am looking for some Little Golden Books. I used to have them when I was little and I would love to get a collection going for my kids. Let me know if you have any to give away or sell. Thanks!

The Results are In!

The video says enough but you can imagine life here at the Crosby's has become blissful and happy with the great news we received on Friday. Saturday we had some friends over to celebrate this awesome mile stone in Bret's life. I am so proud of my husband for all his super duper hard work. He is so smart and determined! I love him!

Boot Camp

Attention Ladies: I received permission to use our stake center for working out. The first night will be this Tuesday after enrichment night (about 8:30pm) If you want to come you will need to bring work out clothes, your own set of weights (10 to 15lbs) and a medicine ball if you have one. Please leave a comment if you are for sure coming that way Rennai doesn't have to show up for no reason. If there is less than 4 of us we will just work out at my house. You can call or email if you have any questions.

Thank you Rennai for being such an awesome human being and helping us out.

Just stop it

London is my jolly sweet giant. At her 1 month check she was already up to 8 1/2lbs and 22 inches long. Kingston has always been tiny weeny but she is in a hurry to grow up. She is still under the 50th percentile but she just seems so much bigger to me compared to KB. She is smiling at me already and I can hardly stand how cute she is. Why oh why am I so stinkin' lucky!?!

Peanut baby and Travel

She looks like a doll
I think maybe dancing is in her future.

I call him punk face

He looks sweet I know but the truth is he is nothing but trouble. He likes to throw toys at his sleeping sister's head, dump things out... especially little tiny things that are hard to clean up and he likes to climb out of bed during nap time and sleep in front of the door. I always had a thing for bad boys though and I gotta admit I am totally in love with this one.

He likes to do what the grown ups do so when I work out he wants to also. (I let him play with the 3lb weights, watch your toes)
Speaking of working out, Rennai has offered to do a FREE boot camp for all those who were asking. We just need a place big enough and you will need your how pair of free weights. We usually meet together every evenings so if you really want to join the band wagon let me know and I will tell you times and location. Be prepared to hurt though.

10 things I hate about Rennai

Dear Rennai,
Thanks a lot for coming over tonight, I wish I could say it was fun but it WAS NOT! I never wanna see your face again actually. So I have compiled a list of 10 things I hate about you.
  1. You look like this (see image below) and well... I do NOT. You suck!
2. "Cut down on your carbs" you say. That's like saying "and NO MORE happiness". (Bryan Regan plug.)
3. Medicine ball + back press = I hate you.
4. Can someone get me a bowl with some fruit to put the rest of my jello (legs) in.
5. For correcting me when I say that I can eat all the Mexican food I want since it is 95% protein. (I suppose there is no Easter Bunny either!)
6. Back Kicks! Next time you better watch out or I might back kick you in the face.
7. Thanks for the work out clothes (that are TOO BIG for YOU). They are a little (LOT) snug on me but with your help (ABUSE) they might fit how the designer intended (someday).
8. For making me drink that sick vanilla protein stuff. It tasted like poison.
9. For making me have a positive attitude and not letting me give up on the 5th rep (ok 2nd rep).
10. and finally I hate you already for coming back tomorrow and making me do it all again.

PS. I thought about it and I decided even though I don't like you right now I still LOVE YOU forever and ever for being my buddy and for helping me grow muscles. Please forgive me for reasons 1 through 10.

Vehicle Wrapping?

Do any of you bloggers know someone personally who does vehicle wrapping or Vehicle Magnets? I am looking into it and would love to talk to someone locally. Thanks!

So Blessed

I wanted to make something special for Lo for her to keep as a keepsake forever so when I realized she didn't have a blessing dress yet it became my project. I found myself a pattern and some material I love with all the right trimmings but it had been a few too many years since I've tried to do a pattern by myself. LUCKILY sweet Shelley was there to talk me through it. After 6hrs I can happily say I finished it and love love LOVE it! It's obviously a little big on her now but her blessing is not until May 10th (Mark your calendars!). I know it's not traditional but then again I've never been very traditional and BONUS, after my refresher course I am feeling anxious to make her some new dresses!

(she is so pretty, feel free to stare :)

My Sweet Lo

Her little black dress. (sassy!)
Look who found her thumb already!
Aunt Carli pierced her ears for me when she game to visit and made her the matching pearl bracelet. Sweet pretties.
First bath! (no privates pls)
Snuggle time with mommy.
Ahhh! I love her!

The King has been busy

This is Kingston's new restraint chair.
Learning how to dip and dunk.
We lost our remote to the DVD player two months ago.... I found it when I tried to use our VCR. Nice.
and loving on sister of course!

My sister sent Kingston a package with these shoes last week and we haven't stopped laughing since!

My Boy

Kingston told me he wanted to learn to fly the other day so we went to the little park in the back tonight and tried it out. He had lift-off for about 1.5 seconds so far. But I'm sure if we keep practicing we can get to like 1.8 or even 2 seconds of flight soon. It was so funny because he was obviously scared while he was in the air but then he would want me to keep doing it over and over. Becki snapped the pics right on time of course.
My awesome employer Infusionsoft hooked it up and I got free Suns tickets to Friday night's game against the Raptors. With a new baby in the house, the only stipulation was that I take Kingston with me. We threw Becki's Nash jersey on him to match mine and we had so much fun.
At halftime we went out to the concourse to stretch and Kingston very quickly won everyone's hearts that saw him. He even got requests for some pictures from the passers-by. He was chasing the moving light of an advertisement on the ground and was being so cute.
He was a good little boy for the whole game. For the first half he would clap along with everyone and would watch the game for the most part. Towards the end he got a little fussy. I just had to keep distracting him with a bag of tricks including fruit snacks, an apple, a finger puppet, his sippy cup, and Trey's beard kept him distracted for a good 15 minutes at least. By the end of the night he was one tuckered out little guy. Overall, he loved his first professional sporting event. He told me he was impressed with the way Shaq has been playing lately. The 45 points we witnessed was quite a feat. So King said that he wants to go back pretty soon. I said you got it buddy boy.
