Another milestone

Jordan hit another childhood milestone this past month.  The training wheels are off his bike!  He loves that he can go fast.    With that has come a couple crashes already, but he seems to take it all in stride.   He's our most sensitive child, but he is also the most determined.  His determination has won and he is a fearless little bike rider.  

Tick Tock

I have a BIG belly.

I have a scheduled induction in one week (May 2)!  I have never been induced before, so it sure is nice to have an end date.  My body continues to say "any day now," so MAYBE just MAYBE she will come early.  Fat chance if I follow my record....  Ha Ha!  Baby needs to wait for the Grandma's to get here.  Amazingly it has worked out to have both Grandma's at the birth of all my children.  This should be another special experience.  Dr. Dad also plans on delivering!  I'll keep you all posted....

T-Ball

 Proud to show you his green gum and also the back of his shirt.
T-Ball season has started here.  We decided to let Jordan take his turn at an extra-curricular activity.  He has been so proud to be apart of something now, since his sister has been taking dance for several months.  The community here is BIG on baseball.  It's a little too much for me, but what do you do? They had opening ceremonies last night where each team rides in a truck and parades from the schools to the baseball fields.  I think everyone from the city was there.  Traffic was horrible.  The kids even threw candy..... and lots of it!  So much that the other kids couldn't keep up on picking it up.  I was so excited to get rid of all the Easter candy last week and now we just got another HUGE haul. 

Jordan had his first game today and I think he enjoyed.  It's T-ball, so it was quite entertaining to watch.  Another story that relates to Jordan and baseball.  We got him a mitt for his birthday.  After only one practice, the mitt mysteriously disappeared.  After 3 weeks of not finding the mitt and not having one for practice, I finally broke down and bought another one for him (knowing that once I did, the old one would show up.)  Sure enough 3 days later, I found the other one!! Stuffed in a toy box that hasn't been opened since the mitt probably got put in there.

Easter Break

The kids had four days off of school.  Tyler had a medical training that he had to attend up in Columbus on Friday, so we decided to make a weekend of it and visit our good friends, the Talbot's.  They are graduating from dental school and moving in just a few short months.  We are sad to see them go.  The kids love playing together.  Tyler and I were able to sneak in a session to the temple Friday night.   The Easter bunny found all the kids on Saturday morning and we enjoyed a small egg hunt.  I only got one picture the whole weekend.  We made it back home Saturday night and went to Stake conference on Sunday.

Professional tooth puller


Makenzie pulled out her fifth loose tooth.  She surprised us and just did it all by herself one night.... a complete turn around from all the other times.  She was proud of herself and this is the note she wrote to the tooth fairy:

I pooled (pulled) out my tooth!  No crying! No help!
