In the life...

Here are just a few things that have been going on in our life:

*Morgan does pretty well at saying please, she has done that for a long time now. We have been working on thank you for quite a while and she does it every once in a while. Lately though she has picked up your welcome, we hadn't even started that but now every time she SHOULD say thank you instead she says your welcome...it is pretty funny.

*We are trying to figure out some sort of discipline for Morgan, I am kind of lost when we really should do this so any advice is welcome. I do remember that my brother and sister in law made their little put her nose on the wall, so we have been doing that but Morgan thinks it is a game and Jeff and I can't stop laughing when she does it, we will have to get a picture. She does do this voluntarily to, sometimes I will walk around the corner to see her nose on the wall! :)

*We were going to go on a cruise at the end of this month with Jeff's siblings and we were so looking forward to it we had everything ready to go and then Jeff and my brother had to fire a guy at work. This guy was going to take over Jeff's responsibilities while he was gone so this combined with a few other work issues we have had to cancel. Are we sad? Yes, are we surprised? No. It seems like the last three trips we have planned have all fallen through or been pretty awful. SO we both came to the conclusion that each of the last three trips we have planned have been with a bigger group. From now on we are only planning trips for ourselves or one other couple. :)


*Baseball season has officially started. :( Happy widow season to all those wives whose husbands are sports freaks! Jeff has been so busy with work though so it actually hasn't been to bad...yet! :) Love you Jeff!

*Monday and Tuesday of this week have been in the 70's! A bunch of the moms in the ward got together on Monday and had a picnic at the park. I got quite the sunburn, but it was so worth it! It has been so nice!!! Today...not so much. It is snowing and we are having a winter storm warning. :( I thought the weather in Idaho was crazy...I think Denver may beat Idaho!

Well, I think that sums it up...I can't think of to much else. Oh, our house in Utah is for sale! :) If any of you want to buy a house or know someone who does let me know!!! :)

I STILL have cute feet!

SO, yesterday when Jeff got home from work I ran to Buffalo Wild Wings to get some wings to celebrate the return of The Office. While I was there I was waiting for our wings and some guy that worked there looked at me and said, "your wearing flip flops out in the snow?!" As some of you may know I don't like wearing shoes. Don't get me wrong I LOVE shoes, but I am very picky so unless I find the perfect pair of shoes I will wear my flip flops. (Speaking of which I found my favorite brand of flip flops...I always though I can get a cheap pair at Old Navy, last year Jeff FINALLY convinced me to buy some Teva flip flops and they are the best thing ever!!!) Anyway, on with my story I told him I shoes and I always wear my flip flops. He continued to look at my feet and said, "well you still have cute feet!" haha Ok so any of you that know me VERY well know that I have what I refer to as a "bad foot." My brother so kindly says it looks like the hide on an elephant! As mean as this is, it is true! :( Jeff says everything else it perfect except that foot! haha He claims it is because I never wear shoes, which may be true but is it really worth it? If I could fool a random guy at Buffalo Wild Wings, only my super close friends will know the difference!

Easter Pictures

I fell in love with this dress when I saw it , and apparently so did Morgan. When I tried it on her the first time she just kept fluffing the skirt. She is a typical g i r l. (for some reason my filter won't let me write the word g i r l still so sorry!)
She walked around all morning with her easter basket and wand.
I wasn't sure how she was going to do with finding the eggs but she got the hang of things and started throwing the eggs in the basket...even the real ones. Oh well we had a good time! We were pathetic and went with one of those pre-made baskets this year, it seems like Easter just snuck up on us! The past few years that has been ok, we would just head to Wal-mart the night before and grab whatever kind of candy we wanted...peeps for me and jelly beans for Jeff. :) Happy be-lated Easter!

Soupy Poopy Weekend

How about that for the title? My sister came up with it, nice huh! Well, it was quite an exciting week. Morgan threw up once on Tuesday and was fussy and just wanted to cuddle for two days straight and after that she had 'soupy poop', for all of those with no kids yet this is what you get to look forward to. On more than one occasion this last week I would come around the corner and Morgan was just squatting while poop ran out the top of her diaper! GROSS!!! GROSS!!! GROSS!!! But such are the simple pleasures of being a parent. :) Then on Friday I got the flu and Saturday Jeff got it. SO, for all of those who have complained that I needed a new post you got it, the soupy poop weekend. :)

Besides our wonderful weekend we are all now feeling much better. I think Jeff still wished he was sick because he has had to work late the last two days. Yesterday he went to work at 6:30 a.m. and got home at 11:30 p.m. Tonight it is 7 and he still isn't home. Poor guy. I am just glad I have such a wonderful husband who works so hard to make our life better. How lucky can I be. :) Love you hun!!!

Happy Anniversary!

What is his name? Jeffrey Scott Sucher

How long have you been married? Four years today! Yay!!! Thus the tribute to my favorite person in the whole world!!! Happy Anniversary to us!

Who eats more sweets? Definitely me!!! Although next to Jeff's side of the bed he has a spot we have affectionately named the snack corner.

Who said i love you first? Long story, refer to my older posts but technically Jeff.

Who is taller? Jeff

Who can sing better? You know, I would like to say me but Jeff is actually really good when he isn't trying to be funny. (the only time I ever hear him sing really loud it at the BYU football games when the fight song comes on....ra ra rarara, goooooooooooooooooo COUGARS!)

Who is smarter? Um, good question. Me with math and science. Jeff everything else. He is pretty dang smart. He remembers EVERTHING, well everything dealing with sports, when we are having a disagreement about something somehow he isn't very good at remembering ;) haha Just kidding. In all seriousness Jeff never ceases to amaze me at how smart he is.

Who does the laundry? Me :( Not my favorite job.

Who pays the bills? Online bill payer! haha, ok the ones that we don't have paid online Jeff always reminds me and then I pay them. It works well...just as long as he remembers to remind me. :)

Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? I do if you are looking at the bed, it is closer to the door if I need to help Morgan.

Who mows the lawn? Well, when we were apartment managers Jeff did, but we technically haven't had a yard yet to mow, but I think we will take turns because I really enjoy doing it!

Who cooks dinner? Me, which I don't mind but I just wish he would tell me what he wants! :) He is a really ....creative cook! haha, he is a really good when he cooks and his favorite thing to do is mix and match different condiments. * if you haven't had his salmon or halibut you are missing out, I think that is the best thing he makes *

Who drives? He does and thinks he is the better driver. He always harasses me that I don't drive when we are on long trips....I volunteer but he won't let me drive anyway, I am a grandma driver.

Who is more stubborn? Definitely me. Jeff is definitely not stubborn. I think it is a Smith trait, but I am trying to do better. He is a good example to me.

Who kissed who first? haha refer to one of my first posts but Jeff did. haha I love that boy!

Who asked who out first? He kept asking me when I was going to ask him and I told him that I didn't ask boys out and so finally after about three weeks of this everyday he asked me.

Who proposed? Jeff of course :) He arranged for me to attend different student council meetings for the day which I didn't think anything of because I had received an email from the the Vice Presidents secretary, anyway long story. He was presenting a presentation he had put together for this meeting as well so I was excited to see him in action. He was doing really well at first but then he started to get really nervous and then he came to where I was sitting and he got down on one knee and I thought it was just because he was nervous but then he opened the box! I was shocked I was NOT expecting to be proposed to in front of twenty other people! haha, but if was going to be proposed to in front of that many people I was glad it was them. Most of them had lived through our drama and were great supports for all of us. :) He went to a lot of work to get this put together!

Who has more siblings? Me, 5 to 4

Who wears the pants? It depends on the situation but I think we each share a leg. I love you Jeff!!! I can't believe it has been four years! You are the best thing that ever happened to me! You are so patient and sincere and make me so happy. I love you SOOOO much!!!

Random Pictures

Morgan found this candy necklace in my diaper bag. I keep it in there for emergencies and I love them because they aren't sticky!
Morgan and I went to the park with some other moms in the ward. She fell asleep on the way home. She loves to wear our sunglasses and this is how she had them on all the way home.

This is Morgan watching her sesame street....very content.
Morgan and I have had a cold this last week and so we have gone through a lot a kleenex ... and this didn't help. :)

Morgan would not stop crying until I put this swim diaper on her! I thought it was so funny, I had to have a picture!

Don't you love this hat?

Morgan got into my powder one morning. You got to love toddlers!

This was Morgan's Halloween costume this year. We moved to Denver just a few days before Halloween so all we did was put her in her outfit, took a few pictures and called it good. Very exciting!















Every time I show Morgan my gum she always tried to go for it and we finally got a picture.






We went to Utah to go to Jeff's cousins wedding and Morgan had a urinary tract infection and she was NOT a happy camper. She has never been so onry for such a long period of time before, poor .

We are going on a cruise at the end of April, and we are going scuba diving. SO, we bought our very own scuba gear and Morgan decided to test it out for us one day.

I came into our living room not to long ago and I saw Morgan sitting on Jeff's football as she pooped. haha, maybe she is ready for toilet training?

Melmo, Melmo?

Sorry it has been so long since I have posted. I just uploaded some pictures so you are going to get an update of all of them. You are SO lucky! :)

Morgan has a new favorite thing. Elmo, or Melmo as she affectionately calls him. Every morning she wakes us and we bring her into our bed and we get her a bottle and almost immediately she starts saying, "Melmo? Melmo?" It used to be Clifford but that didn't last to long. I am not quite sure where she even learned about Elmo, BUT, he is definitely a blessing and a curse! I can turn on Elmo (thank goodness for On Demand, and DVR!!!) in the morning while a take a shower and get ready for the day. She sometimes won't calm down though until I put on an episode of Elmo. Oh well, what can you do?
