blessed

Carter had a cat scan today that showed his left hip is staying where it should. What a blessing and answer to prayers.

Since it’s Spring Break I had my whole crew with me. Carter used his Dunkin Donuts card from his Great Turley Grandparents and we took them to a really cool park in Salt Lake called Sugar House.

Carter got a donut of his very own and never let go of it the whole time we were at the park.

This is how we eat donuts,“Turley style”-everyone tries some of each kind.

My boys love birds, but I’m not sure that birds love them.

Still chowing down on his donut.

Look at the joy on Carter’s face and yes, he is still holding that donut.

Carter loves Clayton and it’s no wonder why.

The train of four didn’t work out so well.

Carter only had one small piece of donut left when we were leaving the park and he wasn’t very happy with me when I took it and chucked it to a bird.

Laun told me I should take the kids to Hogle Zoo, which I was excited about since none of us have been before.

We rode the train, not sure if Porter is pointing or picking his nose in this picture.

Porter wanted to hold Carter on his lap for the train ride. We have so many things we need to improve on as a family, but one thing we all do great at is loving this baby Carter.

I just can’t get over how tall Clayton is and how much he has matured this year!

The monkeys always seem to be my favorite, that and any water animals.

I love how Carter points at the animals.

I wish the Ape would have been moving around, but we caught him during nap time. And the baby monkey was adorable.

Carter says “peace” to the elephant.

It’s a good thing we brought the little red wagon, so Carter could get his nap in.

Under the shade of an umbrella, what a life.

Porter and Marlee and I went on a carousel, but Clayton is “too mature” now, so he gladly watched Carter.

Clayton chose dippin’ dots instead of a carousel ride.

Checking out the rhino…

Then Porter and Marlee went down the lighthouse slide…

Cat phone 1095

Porter is not lacking energy.

Cat phone 1097

I love the pure joy on their faces.

Clayton held Carter for a lot of the day.

This picture was taken of Marlee right after I lost her! She was actually in the same area as us, but I missed her, so I left the boys there (in case they saw her) and went to find help. By the time I got back to the boys she was with them. Not knowing where your kid is might be one of the worst mom feelings ever! I’m so glad she’s mine.

beautiful day

An exhausted and hungry crew-

We hit up Costco for lunch.

Cat phone 1121

Then we went to Aunt Cherri’s home for a visit.

Carter was happy to play with toys.

Cat phone 1122

The boys played some basketball and Marlee was in heaven in their indoor theater room. We had dinner with Cherri and Dave and then headed home.
