Go Tyler Go!

Tyler is officially a kid. Since the sun decided to come out again this week we decided Tyler was ready to learn how to ride on two wheels. After I spent about an hour getting him brave enough to try it and letting him get the feel of it Trev came home and spent 5 minutes with him and he was off. He is doing so good! It's really nice to have such a long driveway for hime to ride on. This is exactly what I pictured when we decided to get our driveway paved. He said he needed to know how to ride a bike so he can go on a mission like uncle Kyle is in Arizona. Thank goodness for good examples.

The Cutest Kids

I know I'm a little bias but I love all these kids. They each have the cutest little personalities. We are really excited to have Tiff, Brad and Ava move out here in a couple of weeks. Grace needs her "baby Aba". We've had a great week because GRACE GOT HER CAST OFF!!!!! Yes it finally happened and she's a little wobbly but loving her independence. We just need to work on her whining a little bit and we'll be good. Me and the kids got our flu shots on monday, Grace got her cast off on wednesday, Andrew had his last well baby check up thursday. I guess that means he's no longer a baby. That is really sad! Britt got to hear Andrew yell at me when I wouldn't let him keep his huge tonka trunk in his crib with him while he took a nap. It went something like"No no no no, blah blah blah blah, no no no no", with his finger pointing at me the whole time. Of course I couldn't help myself from laughing, which I think only angered him more. Lately instead of crying I just laugh at everything, I think it keep me sane. Mom had a birthday on Wednesay and we all went out to dinner except for Trev because had to go to Young Men's, he's so responsible. Anyway lifs is on the up and up and Tyler has his sacrament Primary program this sunday. He has his part memorized and knows the songs. We'll see what happens when it's time to get up there. O.k. that's all I have to say, and congratulations to Shelane and Wade, they're expecting there 5th child and it's a boy!!!

After the afternoon session of General Conference we stuffed the kids full of muffins, hash browns, Poferges (little pancakes from Holland), and juice. It was delicious. I finally got some pictures of Grace's cast using my mom's camera. Mine decided to quit after 5 years, 3 kids, well you understand... I managed to get Grace to sit still long enough for me to french braid her hair but it didn't last very long, but she's adorable anyway. Only 1 1/2 weeks till that beautiful cast comes off. She's trying to get get away with walking on it but we were given strict instructions from the doctor not to let her so we just keep having to tell her to sit on her bum, or at least what's left of it. She's lost tons of weight no idea how much but we can tell. As you can see she does eat. Maybe that's the next big diet craze. Break something that makes you immobile so you can only eat when somebody brings you your food. Hmmm we'll have to see....

Update from yesterday

In case you were wondering Andrew did throw up last night and if you were wondering, almost 2 year olds don't like having a bowl in front of their face, they would rather let the mess spread all over their bed. I love laundry!!! So far Trev and I are in the clear, cross your fingers that it's just a kid thing. I'm thinking about calling the Lysol company and tell them that 99.9% isn't good enough, I want 100% disinfectant. More to come...

Kaiser's Flu clinic starts the 13th!

I woke this morning to hear the sound of Tyler running into the bathroom and thought to myself "yay, I don't have to wake him up this morning". But as I walked into the bathroom I saw him crouching over the toilet puking. So when he was done I asked him if he was o.k. and I felt his head and no temperature. So I thought well at least it's just one kid. He said he felt better so I had him get dressed for school thinking and praying that he just had too much bacon last night with his BLT sandwich. So off to school we go. WAIT MOM STOP! I'M GOING TO THROW UP! Oh yes we had to stop just past Nikki's house on the way to school so he could empty what was left of his stomache. Then I turn my head only to see Nikki and her clan driving past us and she is full on cracking up. I think it's because yesterday I called her to tell her when the first day of Kaiser's flu clinic is, the 13th. Why did we talk about it! O.K. fine you can stay home Tyler ( poor kid). Well at least Grace is o.k. she can go to school. I hear a cough from the back and look and then eruption from my poor little Grace, yes her too. Well that was a fun ride in the car. I kept thinking please don't throw up on that cast because I can wash clothes but not the cast. So Andrew's fine, so far I'll keep you posted...there's always tonight!
