Zander is the Best Baby in the World!

My sweet, angelic, 10 week old slept from 10:30 last night to 6:00 this morning. I am rejoicing today. And Zander is allowed to be as high maintenance as he wants, because just for today, he's the best baby in the world!

Spring Break

This morning at Family Council I asked the kids where they wanted to go for Spring Break. This is what they said:

  • Disneyland
  • Disneyworld
  • Mexico --because it's fun and you can swim
  • California
  • Texas--to visit the Hopkins
  • Chicago--originally identified as "the place where Ned and Melissa live"
  • New York--to see the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island
  • Washington, DC--to see the white house and the statue of the guy sitting in the chair (Connor and Bronson learned about Lincoln this week), oh, and Aunt Karen
  • Boston--Annika "We could see the Liberty Bell!" Me "You mean
  • Philadelphia
  • France--We've promised we'll take them if they learn french
  • Mobile--to visit Mimi and Granpa
  • Florida
  • Nevada
  • Edmonton--there's a cool mall there with a swimming pool
  • Hawaii
  • Africa
  • Brazil
  • Japan
As you can see they have big plans. I'd been thinking Wayne County, Utah, home of Capital Reef Monument and only a few hours away. Or better yet, finding a Holiday Inn with an indoor pool and miniature golf course. Although, I've never been to New York . . .
