The Funny Things Justus Says

This morning as Katie was getting her cereal ready she asked if she could bring milk with her to her math class. I told her no and then Justus said " well mom can bring you some later." At that comment Katie said "no mom doesn't love me." And then my funny boy said " if you don't love Katie I'm going to boost you out of the house."

Then he said "I'm just kidding Mom."

My funny little boy. :-)

CHICKEN POX???

YEP, OUR GOOD FRIENDS GEOFFREY AND DANA'S SON ELI HAS THEM.

I AM PRAYING THAT OUR MATTHIAS AND ORION WON'T GET THEM.

MATTHIAS HAS HAD HIS FIRST SHOT, HOWEVER

HE IS NOT DUE FOR THE SECOND UNTIL HE IS TWO.

WE WERE WITH THEM ON FRIDAY FOR THE GAME NIGHT

SO I AM PRETTY SURE WE WERE EXPOSED.

(IF WE DO GET THEM I KNOW WE WILL BE FINE)

ELI DIDN'T GET HIS SPOTS UNTIL SATURDAY OR SUNDAY.

PLEASE PRAY THAT ELI WON'T HAVE TO DIFFICULT OF A TIME

AND WON'T ITCH TO BAD.

IT WAS NOT FUN AT ALL WHEN OUR 3 OLDER CHILDREN HAD THEM.

ALSO PRAY THAT THE PADEN'S OR OTHERS WON'T GET THEM.

HAVE A WONDERFUL MONDAY!!!

Luke Likes to Dance

On Thursday Glacier Valley had a Heart and Soul dance presentation. This involved all the 3rd thru 5th grade students. Luke has been involved with this program and has really enjoyed learning all the dances. Anyway this year the school was asked to preform at the dance team presentation and Luke is one of the 20 students that are going to preform. He did a great job and I am looking forward to seeing him preform again on April 2nd and 3rd. If you want to go you will need to purchase tickets in advance at Hearthside Books. They are $10 each and they will more than likely sell out quickly. Hope to see you there. The pictures are pretty blurry, however you can see he is having a great time. Have a great weekend.

Luke really has the moves, He gets his whole body into this dance. Just ask Mr. Wyatt :-)

Winter or Spring Walk w/ the Little Boys

Yesterday David only worked until 10:30 so, he decided he would like to go for a walk. So we loaded up the little boys and headed to Auke Rec. It was a lot colder than I thought it would be. The wind was blowing and the snow was coming down too. However is was so refreshing to be outside. Justus was the leader on our walk and he thought it was great that he got to take us through the woods. Matthias kept falling on the ice and saying "woo" and jabbering all the way. Every once in a while you could make out what he was saying other than that I believe it was just jabber. And of course Orion just slept. What a beautiful memory we made with our little boys.

Getting ready to go in his little green suit.

Walking on the bridge with Dad in the lead.

Green Eggs & Ham ???

For St. Patrick's day I did not do the traditional brisket and cabbage meal. Instead I made my family green eggs & ham. I was thinking that they would not attempt to eat this meal, however they dug right in. The only comment that I heard was from David as he said "this is gross, I don't know if I can do this." Other than that the meal went well and I still have green food coloring on my fingers.

Happy Birthday Sara

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SISTER SARA.

I LOVE YOU LITTLE SISTER.

Beginnings of the New Roof & Orion

Orion has been trying to find his thumb lately. Today was one of those rare occasions that he did find his thumb and he had his eyes open. The picture is blurry, but still super cute.

We have started the process of getting ready for the roof remodel. This weekends chore/task was putting the posts in the houses. Jeannie has a post in her room and one in the hall. However I get two in my living room. The only real complaint so far is not having the t.v. as you can see where the t.v. was is a big post. Now comes the task of finding a new spot for the t.v.

Next weekends chore/task is clearing out the attic and the boys room. Anybody want to help?

Happy Birthday David!!!

Today is David's birthday, He is 35 today. What an "old man" I have. I am so blessed to share your life and to be called your wife. I pray you have a wonderful day and that as we share many more of your birthday's together we will be strengthened by our Lord.

One Month Pictures

Time has just flown by, Our little Orion is 1 month already.

He still likes to sleep a lot and eat a lot.

And I think he is working on finding his thumb.

And when I change Orion's diaper Matthias likes to say "yuck".

I read an article when I was pregnant with Matthias that if you take their picture with a stuffed animal on the same day of each month ( the 4th for Orion) you can see how they have changed. I did this with Matthias so I am going to also do this with Orion.

Matthias had a frog and Orion will have his monkey.

My 3 Little Boys

How cute do you think this is?
