About Miles

Miles is still very busy. He always keeps me on my toes. He is just now starting to talk and it is so fun to hear how he pronounces different words. He loves playing with Kyle and he is always trying to "help" me with Layla. Now that Layla uses the exersaucer, Miles tries to pull her out so he can use it. I find him sitting in the saucer all the time. He is such a joy to us. We love him a lot.

About Layla

Layla has started into the baby food. For the most part she loves it. Her favorites so far are sweet potatoes, peas, and pears. She is starting to get the hang of eating. It is pretty cute watching her eat. She also loves the exersaucer. She has so much fun until Miles hits her in the head with one of the toys or tries to pull her out because he thinks he needs a turn. She has been such a joy and blessing in our life. We love her so much.

Memorial Weekend

Miles and Reagan

Rayce giving Kyle a ride

I took the kids camping with my sister and her family, my brother, and my other sister and brother in law. Steve unfortunately had to work all weekend so he missed out on the fun. We went down to the Sand Dunes at Little Sahara. The boys had so much fun in the sand. The cutest part of the whole trip was my sisters little boy Rayce, who is 4 years old, took Kyle on a 4 wheeler ride. It was the cutest thing. Night time wasn't always so fun, but thanks to my sister Melissa she helped me stay sane while Miles and Layla were up in the night. Over all it was a fun weekend and the kids had fun, that is the most important.

Kyle's first soccer game

Kyle stealing the ball

Kyle started soccer this spring and last Saturday was his first game. He did pretty good running back and forth and every once in a while he would kick the ball. He did steal the ball, to bad it was from his own teammate. It is kind of humorous seeing 3 year old kids playing soccer.

Layla's blessing

We blessed Layla on March 29, 2009. It was a special day. The spirit was strong and Steve did an amazing job with the blessing. We had a lot of family and friends there and many who were not able to make it and we missed them. Layla looked beautiful.

Layla, Miles and Kyle

Layla had her 2 week doctor visit this last week. She is growing well. She is 6 lbs 14 oz and 20 inches long. She is still a pretty good baby. She has her fussy moments, but what baby doesn't.

Miles had his 15 month doctor visit. He is 22 lbs 4 oz. and 30.71 inches tall. He is only in the 19% for weight, but is doing well.

Kyle had his follow up visit from his surgery. He had his adenoids and tonsils taken out February 3. He has recovered really well from it. He breathes a lot better and has now been sleeping through the night.

Congrats Matt

My little brother Matt received his mission call yesterday. He has been called to the Romania Bucharest mission. I don't know of anyone who has gone to Romania. When he first read his mission call I thought he was joking but no; he is going to Romania. He reports to the MTC June 3. I think we are all in shock but are very excited for him. Congrats Matt. You are going to be a great missionary.
