Lanon Keahi's 1st birthday!

Landon Turned one this weekend on the 11th. We celebrated on the Saturday with a big birthday party. I always get nervous before throwing a party especially when there is 40-45 people coming. After being worried for the entire week before the party turned out great. We swam, had good food, a pinata and everyone mingled and got along great. I feel so blessed to have so many great friends and family that came out to celibrate our little man turning one!

My amazingly talented friend WENDY

So I have this friend her name is Wendy, she is not only funny, pretty and a great wife (only she could be married to her ever so clever husband Brandon) but she is the most talented cake maker ever. This last Saturday was Landon's 1st birthday party and she made the cake. I think she should start her own cake making business! Doesn't cakes by Wendy have a nice ring to it? Any way Wendy you are amazing and I am so grateful to have you as a friend. I will miss you!!

Fun in the Sun!!!!

The weather here has been so beautiful latley it has inspired us to begin to use our pool. Last Sunday we took Landon out to test the waters. Landon Loves the pool and he loves water but hates his swimming lessons wich he started 2 weeks ago (pictures to come). We had a great day and I have been laying out all week! I do love california in the spring, actually I love california all of the time we do have the best weather.

Ashlan turned 15 !!!!

Last Friday was my sister Ashlans 15th birthday. Dallin had just got home for the summer to prepare for his mission. He leaves July 2nd and is serving in Tallahassee Florida. It was a fun night we had pizza and cake, we discussed American idol and volleyball all our normal topics. It was really nice to be together with every one and celebrate Ashlan being one year older.

Volleyball practice and Nana' s House

Last week Landon and I went up to Nana's house for the night. I had a late practice and so Great grama was going to watch him while he slept but that didn't go so well so Landon and great Grama came to practice with me. It worked out just fine because he LOVED sitting in the ball cart. He watched practice in there while Grama pushed him around. Here are some pics.

The next day we hung out and Landon had tones of room to play. Her house is 3700 square feet and ours is 1,000. Landon Loves Toby, and discovered that he could crawl up stairs.

Vomit, Diareaha, and more Vomit......

So I think in the last 2 weeks I have left the house 4 times. Yesterday I changed 15 Diarrhea diapers, I have done 2 lodes of laundry a day washing poopie pants and vomit covered shirts. Today we were in Trader Joe's. This is the first time Landon has left the house besides going to the ER or the doctor in 2 weeks. Ten minutes in to trader Joe's he vomits, and were not talking a little bit of vomit we are talking like 16 ounces, all over me the groceries the floor. In the isle with me was a women with a baby younger then Landon. She looks at me with horror as he vomits like how dare you bring your sick child to the grocery store and quickly left the isle. So I go and clean him up, head to the check out line and as I am walking out to my car holding my kid who is just wearing a diaper, he craps! It comes out of his diaper all over me, Oh and by the way today is the first day that I have actually gotten dressed in 2 weeks. Then when we get home I am bringing in the groceries and the handle on the bag brakes and a can of spaghetti sauce brakes all over my drive way.
Then comes bath time. I take Landon's clothes of right before he gets in, start to carry him to the tub which is like 10 steps away and he pees all over me. I think that I have the most glamorous life in the world, and because I will have more children I am looking at at lest 10 years of life filled with poop and vomit. Sorry about all the disgusting posts but that is my life right now.

What is that smell?

On Thursday of last week we noticed a smell in the bathroom. I thought that Wes had just had done some serious business in there but when the smell was worse in the morning I decided that I should clean the bathroom, dump the trash, so on and so forth it must be something in the bathroom. Friday night it got worse, and we realized that it smelled like a dead animal. Wes went to the store around 11:00 pm to get some Oder eliminator but nothing helped. Over the next few hours the smell seeped through the entire house. At the same time Landon has been sick and has been throwing up, diarrhea. Our house was a stink zone.

Around midnight I began looking up dead animal removers and came across some one who could come out first thing in the morning. So after a horribly stinky night around 10:00 AM DAVY BROTHERS animal removal service showed up. He walked in and said yes it is dead and under your house. He suited up, crawled under the house and this is what he found.

A 15-20 pound dead Possum. Yes folks the biggest possum he had ever seen. He proceeded to tell me that it was "crawling". Whats that I asked? (After looking at the picture you may think dumb question.) "With maggots," he said. Guess I need to work on my dead animal lingo.
