More FuN!!!

So, we had just about a week in between Ansley's visit and Merilee's visit to get some potty training done. This is something that is a must for me before I have a new baby. Having two kids in diapers does not sound fun to me, nor does potty training with a new baby. Crew was a champ! He did such a great job and caught on so fast. He was probably my easiest to potty train during the day, night time is a different story. Three days and he had it pretty much down. Now only if he could figure out the nights.
Kelan and Beckham were such great helpers. They loved potty training because they got treats every time they cheered on Crew for making it to the potty. Crew LOVED all the attention.
 Potty training is such a chore! At the same time I kinda love it, I can only say that now since I am done with it, well until the next one. It is so fun to take a few days off from being a "mom" and just sit and focus 100% on your kid(s). We had a little set up in the kitchen with toys, games, arts/crafts, computer games and shows on the computer. It was a PArTy!!!
 Juice for days!!! Crew loves his big brothers.
 Potty training is hard work.
 Merilee & Kenndy Came to visit!!!
These boys seriously love their Aunt Meme and Uncle Kennedy. It was sooooo fun to have them. We love when people come to visit so we can play with them. We met up with Merilee and Kennedy at the Jelly Belly factory because they were driving down from Utah. This was the boys first time ever going, it was so fun!
 You have to wear these hats as you go through the factory, Crew was not a fan, his hat made it maybe 5 minutes.
 Kelan was not wanting to smile in front of the Jelly Belly art, so Beckham had to Change his smile to a frown too. Monkey see, monkey do. Thank goodness Kelan is a good kid and great example for his younger brothers, 99% of the time. If Crew was the ring leader we would be in serious trouble, haha.
 We went to the Stanford Shopping Center and got some Sprinkles cupcakes. Everyone raves about these things, they were delicious but not as good as Nothing Bunt Cakes. The Shopping Center was AMAZING and the cutest I've ever seen.
 Tide pools! We love this place!!! The weather was actually perfect, minus the fact that we all didn't realize we were roasting. Overcast weather is very deceiving, poor Kennedy's forehead got the worst of it.
 We played at this place forever! This was the perfect time to go because the tide was so low. The boys found so many cool treasures, thank goodness you're not allowed to take any home with you. That's just what I don't need, more "treasures", we've got plenty, in the boy's junk drawer! Hahaha.
 Playing at Pier 39 is always a must when people come visit.
 The boys were hanging out on the stage while we were waiting for the show to start. I should've taken a picture of all the Asian tourists taking pictures of my blonde haired boys, it was pretty funny! 
 Ghirardeli deliciousness!
 We skipped out after sacrament meeting to go walk around the temple grounds. I seriously love this Temple, it is so beautiful. Like father, like son... none of them could keep their eyes open.
 Cute Merilee & Kennedy still in the newlywed stage. Look and them smooching away. We sure love those two, we're lucky Merilee snatched up such a good one.
The fair was in town while Merilee and Kenndy were here, so we had to go!
 The best part of the fair is the over priced greasy food. Who doesn't love chili cheese curly fries? Me!!! My treat was funnel cake with strawberry sauce on top! Yummy!
 Merilee and Kennedy brought the boys these cute swords. They seriously love these things! They look pretty safe, right!? The boys battle and battle and battle until the foam slips off and all that is left is the PVC pipe, Beck took an awesome hit to the face. He got a great battle wound from it, didn't stop him from fighting with his favorite sword again. We're working on raising tough boys at our house, haha.
Thanks for visiting us Aunt Meme and Uncle Kennedy! We love you guys!
