Warner's Words

I've been wanting to write down some of the words that Warner says before I forget. It's amazing to watch a little one grow up. I'm always so surprised at how smart he is getting, and also how independent this little guy is. So here is a list of some of the words that he says!!

• Mine (Taught to him by his cousin Emree)
• Mom and Dad
• Bampa (grandpa)
• Bamma (grandma)
• elcesese (delicious) Not sure exactly how he says it, but we sure get a kick out of it!!
• alina (Salina)
• pease (please)
• anks (thanks)
• no (uses very often)
• ook (book)
• spidey (spider man)
• reck (shreck)
• eona (Fiona)
• nene (Emree)
• nydny (Sydney)
• urke (Burke)
• Tistie (Kristie)
• gogo (Logan)
• Ty (either for his uncle Ty or the Tie he wears to church)
• nander (Landon) at least that's what I think he's saying
• Ry (for Ryan, he hears me saying that all the time so he is always yelling Ry)
• Coke (for root beer)
• cookie (breakfast, lunch and dinner)
• B (Blanket)
• Pissa (pizza)
• Hinkey (President Hinkley)

Tag I'm it!

1) What's your husbands name? Ryan J Roberts
2) How long have you been married? 3 years....how time flies when you find the man of your dreams!
4) Who eats more? When it comes to food that would be Ryan. If it's snacking on treats all day that would be me. Ryan like treats but I prefer them to meals.
5) Who said "I love you" first? Ryan said it first. I really wanted to, but just couldn't get the words out. I think he knew what I was getting at so he decided it was fine to tell me.
6) Who's taller? Ryan definitely. When your 5'4" it doesn't take much to be taller than me.
7) Who sings better? Ryan is the better singer. He was part of LD singers when he went to Snow College. Although we use to be known as the funeral singers. People were searching hard for talent and would call us to sing. Go figure. They quit calling!!
8) Who's smarter? Hands down it would be Ryan. When he wrote his article when he was running for city council everyone was sure I wrote it for him. Haha...I only wish.
9) Who has the worst temper? Well on a day to day basis it would be me. Ryan is pretty even tempered, but when he blows look out!! It really does take a lot to push him over the edge though.
10) Who does the laundry? Usually me, unless Ryan runs out of work pants.
11) Who does the dishes? Ryan's good to rinse his dishes off after dinner, but actually doing the dishes it's me.
12) Who pays the bills? That became my job after I quit my full time job.
13) Who mows the lawn? What lawn? This is our third home of our own, but the first time we have had lawn. Since we bought it during the winter I don't know who will mow it. I would say it will probably be Ryan since the yard is huge, but I'm up to mowing it too.
14) Who cooks dinner? By all the appliances Ryan owned when we got married I figured he was a good cook. One day I'll find out...for now I'm the cook.
15) Who drives when we're together? Usually Ryan, but I take my turn every now and then.
16) Whose family/parents do you see more? We see them both often. We are so lucky to have them close to us, but I would have to say we see Ryan's parents the most. Since Ryan works with them, and then they just live around the corner, it's hard not to run into them.
17) Who has more friends? That would be me. I LOVE my friends and try to stay in touch with them as much as I can.
18) Who has more siblings? Ryan
19) Who wears the pants in the family? Ummmm. I would say Ryan, but he would say me. You know the saying if momma ain't' happy ain't' nobody happy. He lives by that so lets me try to run the show. Besides I got the name Charles in charge back in grade school.

Now I guess I get to tag someone else!!! So Lynzie, Candi and Thurber lets see what you have to say!!

It's official

Ryan was officially sworn into City Council last night. They are already keeping him busy. He's not really sure what he got himself into, but is really excited for the experience. Doesn't he just look like the man that can make a decision!!! What a hunk!

Some after pictures of the house

Finally I am getting back into blogging, so hopefully you don't get overloaded with all the new post today. These are some of the pictures that were showing in the before pictures, so I thought I'd post the after. This is the master bedroom. I painted the walls and also all that wood. I wouldn't have done the wood in this room if my dear friend Stacia hadn't come to help me. After painting all the wood downstairs I just didn't feel up to it. In the long run I'm glad that we did it and that it's over with. That wood was such a pain to paint.

Yeah!!! No more green carpet and the ceiling finally looks normal. I don't have a great picture showing the difference in the ceiling. I guess you'll just have to come and see for yourselves ;) We still are a little under construction as you can see the box and cords all over the place!! One day at a time!

Here is the kitchen. The before pictures showed it with just the wood. I really didn't like that wood if you can tell. My dad and I painted this room. It took us an entire day. I still need a little help with decorating walls, but it's coming along!

Winter fun!

A few weekends ago I decided to get Warner a little sled to pull him around in. Ryan accuses me of doing this so I can get some cute photos for my blog, but really I knew Warner would love it. I just hooked a rope to the sled and pulled him around the back yard and then up the street until we got attacked by two dogs! It was quite the workout for the prego mom, but Warner loved it, and that's all the mattered!
