My laptop has been dying a slow death, and every time I do anything on it, it takes about 10 minutes to open stuff, and internet explorers shuts down, and I get frustrated and want to throw it out the window. Scott has recently gifted me his old work laptop, but it's an apple, so I have to learn how to use it, but I plan to start blogging again, and to update the past year on this little old blog of mine. It's an overwhelming project, but needs to be done - for posterity!<div><br></div><div>Anyway - I need to blog about two things that happened over Christmas, before it's all fallen out of my head. I'm attempting this on my iPad, which means there's no pictures, and probably lots of typos, - but here goes...</div><div><br></div><div>First - Tiff is here to spend Christmas, and we LOVE it! It's so fun to have her here! We picked her up at my parents house on Christmas Eve. We enjoyed a lovely dinner with my parents, and Hyrum who is here from Colorado, and then read the Christmas story from the Bible, talked about the different pieces of the he nativity, opened some new Christmas pjs, bathed and dressed the kiddos, and headed home. At home, the boys put out cookies and milk for Santa, water and carrots for the reindeer, and went right to bed, after checking on Santa's whereabouts on dad's phone. They were so quick to get into bed, and we didn't hear a peep. That's when Tiff informed Scott and I off the conversation she overheard In the car on the way home. She said Jackson leaned over to Adam,and whispered "I think I'm on the naughty list!" To which Adam replied "well, you never really know." And then Adam informed Jackson "I don't think AJ (our elf) is real. I noticed a tag on his back the other day." I'm not sure if Jackson had response to that or not.</div><div><br></div><div>Well, Christmas morning, Adam was up before Jackson, and he came and climbed into bed with Scott and I. So we decided to ask him about AJ not being real. I loved Adam's answer. He said "I think what happens is that a mom or dad that want an elf for their family, go to the store and buy the elf. Then, if the kids have been good, Santa makes a special trip and sprinkles the elf with his Christmas magic, so he comes alive just for that family." I'm not sure how much longer Adam will believe in Christmas magic or Santa, but I love his innocence and trust. </div><div><br></div><div>Merry Christmas everyone! </div><div><br></div>Tammyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17710564366295759258noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580893898801240318.post-83575717715206131032013-06-25T16:45:00.001-07:002013-06-25T16:45:53.408-07:00More Kate Pictures<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Last weekend, we became a two kid family for a night. Jackson went to spend the night at Grandma's house with Robyn, so we just had Adam and Kate at home. We headed out to watch some of the young men in our ward run at district wide track meet. On the way out, Kate took Adam's hand and let him help her through the maze of cars. It was so cute, we had to snap some pictures!</div>

Adam looks like a giant next to her, and she totally adores him! They are 6 years apart in age.</div>

Jackson has had a long obsession with Spider-Man. It went away for a little bit, but yesterday morning, he found his spiderman costume and wanted to wear it. We put it on, and it's a little bit short, and has holes and runs all over it, but it didn't matter to this kid. He wore it on our walk to drop Adam off and school, and he was the hit of the morning! Big kids and little kids alike came up and gave him 5 and let him shoot webs at them. I wish I had gotten a picture of Adam's face as all the kids in his class asked him if that was his brother. I think he was a little bit embarrassed and proud all at the same time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Jackson was Spider-Man all day! He wore it to his friends house while I volunteered in Adam's class and decided that being Spider-Man protected him from their dog (who he always hid from before), and they didn't have to put her in the kennel. He wore it to pick Adam up from school and got more hi-5s. It was a spider-riffic day!!</div>

Kate was a wild girl in the pool. She loved the slide and spent the whole time going around and up the stairs, through the sprayers and down the slide. Most of the time, she didn't want any help - except when she would trip and go all the way under the water. It was pretty crazy to watch. We had several people come up to us and comment on how brave she was! She would do the slide all by herself, then get up and head right back over to the stairs to do it again. Scott and I took turns hanging with Kate while the other did slides with the boys. Jackson loved going down the body slides, and Adam had a great time on the big slides. </div>
<div align="center">
After dinner, we settled everyone in PJs and got a treat to wait for the bedtime show. Kate enjoyed a chocolate covered banana... Messy!</div>

We had to be sure to do some group pictures while we were together for a week. It was tough, but we got all the kiddos to sit on the couch with Great Grandma.

I love the Idaho Falls Temple. It's where I took out my endowments (almost 20 years ago - yikes!!) It's been awhile since I've been there, and they've made a lot of improvements to the area surrounding the temple. We took a trip down there one evening. It was cold, but it was fun! Here's all the kids posing outside the temple.</div>

We went in to the visitors center and a nice man showed us a couple of new movies the church has put out. He asked the kids lots of questions, and we all beamed with pride as they answered him! It was fun!</div>

Easter kind of snuck up on me this year. We normally have a neighborhood Easter Egg hunt which a neighbor plans. This year, they decided not to do it. So, at the last minute, I decided to try and get it organized. Somehow, it all came together! We had a fun little potluck breakfast on a beautiful Saturday morning. Kate came sporting some bunny ears, ready for the hunt!</div>

I didn't even buy new Easter outfits for the kids. I did have a cute blue dress for Kate and matching shirts for the boys, but didn't take a picture of them before heading to church Sunday morning. Oh well!!</div>

Adam's 1st grade class went on a fossil field trip to the children's museum up in Everett this past Thursday. I went along and had so much fun with Adam and 3 of his friends! They had been studying dinosaurs, so the main part of the field trip was to go to attend a fossil class, but we also got to spend time playing around at the museum. I didn't get many pictures - but we had so much fun!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They have a very cool light and sound display. This is Adam playing with it.</div>

At first, I thought maybe Jackson had done something (he's had a hard time transistioning into sunbeams - although the past few weeks have been pretty good), but she actually called to tell me about something Adam did during sharing time. Adam is in the CTR 7 class, and in our ward, this class meets with senior primary for sharing time. They are the youngest kids in senior primary. The primary president was doing sharing time, and she had put up two pictures of the Savior and had asked the kids what the pictures had in common. One was a picture of Jesus praying in the Garden of Gethsemane, and the other was a picture of Jesus on the cross. The answer she was looking for was the atonement. She said that the answers she was getting were things like - "Jesus is in both pictures" or "there's a rock in both pictures". She called on Adam and he said "sacrifice - Jesus is being a sacrifice". She said his comment really made her stop and think and it surprised all the other kids.<br />
She said she was calling to let me know of a proud parenting moment. I am super proud of Adam! I don't think I can take any credit for his answer, or for the young man he is becoming! He has really grown up the past couple of months! He LOVES to pull out his Book of Mormon and has started asking to read a verse or two when we read scriptures as a family. He often says "I love the scriptures" or "I love going to church". He has two really incredible primary teachers this year, and he is excited every Sunday to go to church. He even gets up and gets himself dressed. Last Sunday, he even made himself and Jackson breakfast while I was getting ready. Scott has meetings before church, so I have to get all three kids ready by myself - but Adam has really stepped up to help! He is so excited to be baptized this year! He can't wait until he turns 8 and gets his own set of big scriptures! He talks about it all the time! I'm a lucky mom!!<br />

Jackson has his own little language - and it's just so darn cute, I can't correct him. I thought I should record a little dictionary to remember it all:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Drinky: Jackson's word for thirsty. As in - "I need a drink - I'm really drinky."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Last Night: When everything happened - even if it happended three weeks or three months ago. As in - "AJ came to our house last night" or "Adam played basketball at that place last night"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lipchap: Jackson's word for chapstick.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Escagator: You know - those moving stairs at the mall? And this is how Jackson chooses to ride up and down the escagator. He has to sit on the step...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfbzmDLXseUOs8hhBLVk7PAv_0MrcQPLD5O7p6Z7JJzdA7Q6eSpinEbTnm20Odn1UtEcC2v37jdqNRYDnp0YAeqoYb7fxzw1SNFOrtirZ_JILPBBP1MYolNBSI_VLLsAl75E7MYjZ3bNL7/s1600/EF1C6972-CB2B-493A-8A8C-21B50BC5404D.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfbzmDLXseUOs8hhBLVk7PAv_0MrcQPLD5O7p6Z7JJzdA7Q6eSpinEbTnm20Odn1UtEcC2v37jdqNRYDnp0YAeqoYb7fxzw1SNFOrtirZ_JILPBBP1MYolNBSI_VLLsAl75E7MYjZ3bNL7/s320/EF1C6972-CB2B-493A-8A8C-21B50BC5404D.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div align="center">
Elegator: The thing you ride in with doors and buttons when their isn't a escagator, or Kate is in a stroller.</div>
<div align="center">
This isn't a word that he says, but I had to record this as well. One Sunday, Adam and Jackson went to church with my parents. My dad had picked Jackson up from his class, and they were waiting for grandma outside the relief society room. There were several other men waiting there, and apparently there is a man in their ward who is pretty short. My dad said that Jackson walked over to him, looked him up and down and said "your not that big", turned around and walked away. Everyone in the hall got a good laugh!</div>
<div align="center">
Jackson sure does keep us laughing around here. He's got his own crazy personality, and his own way of doing just about anything. I love spending my days with him! We've been talking a little bit about preschool, and he has decided he can't go to preschool, because he mom won't be there. We'll keep working on it!</div>
<div align="center">
We've also been working on controlling ourselves! Jackson has a little temper, and most of the time - it gets the better of him. We were watching this cute show on PBS called "Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood". They learn about something new every day (it's the tiger puppet from Mister Rogers Neighborhood - its super cute). One day, they talked about what to do when you get mad! Daniel Tiger's mom taught him a song, and Jackson's been singing it ever since. It's cute to hear him sing it. It goes like this: "When you feel so mad, that you want to roar, take a deep breath, and count to 4". It doesn't always work, but when he remembers, it cute to see him do it and learn to control himself that way. He's really growing up fast! I'm kind of glad he doesn't want to go to preschool. I would miss him too!</div>

And, she's decided that her dad is the most amazingly wonderful person in the whole wide world! If she hears the front door, she yells "DA!!" and takes off running! If he's home, he never gets a moments peace from her. She tags along behind him where ever he goes! If he happens to lay down on the floor, she climbs all over him, and if he wrestles with the boys, she yells at her brothers until they leave dad alone! Maybe it's because he makes such a great recliner??? </div>

Peek a boo, is Kate's favorite game to play! Everytime I change her diaper, her chubby little hands cover those eyeballs and she gets this huge grin on her face and she grunts at me until I say "where's Kate??" Then she flings her hands into the air and lets out a huge squeal and a giggle, then starts all over again! It's so fun!!</div>

I caught some pictures of her hiding her eyes the other day! I should try to get it on video!!</div>

The young men in our ward had a camp out planned for this past weekend. Originally, there weren't every many boys that were planning to go, so Scott and some of the other leaders decided they would all still go with th YM that wanted to, and they would also take their younger boys. Adam was thrilled! He loves hanging out with the young men! As it turned out - almost every single one of the young men attended, which was great! Adam had fun running around with his friends that were ther, and then Scott said he sat up around the camp fire with all the young men, laughing at their jokes and watching them "juggle" fire (seriously??) until about 11pm before heading to bed.</div>

Took a walk today. It wasn't raining - so outside we went, until we got cold. Kate loved walking up and down this fence around the retention pond down the street. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We do a babysitting co-op with some friends at church. We call it kid party, to make it more attractive to the kids. There are three families, and Kate has been the youngest kiddo for awhile, until Elliot joined us. This past Saturday was at our house.

I took Kate and Jackson to check out a fun new play place in the area called Elevated Sportz. They have a bunch of trampolines for the big kids, and a really cool play area for smaller kids. Jackson and Kate had a great time!</div>

So - there you have it. A few highlights of life around here. I'm still trying to get this little old blog caught up with everything that happened at the end of last year and in January of this year. One day, it will be up to date! Otherwise - we just keep moving on!

Kate has been very slow at moving. At her 9 month check up, she hadn't started crawling yet. By her 1 year check up, she was moving around - not crawling, but scooting and getting around in her own way. She had her 15 month check up last week, and she has finally started to do some walking. I've tracked down several videos we have taken of her over the months that highlight the evolution of her moving! (hopefully, they will all load!!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This first one was taken in early November. She had just started to scoot...</div>

This one was in early January. She's really got that scooting thing down! I think she looks like a gorilla when she really gets moving! She never really did crawl. She will, once in awhile, if she gets stuck in a spot or she's copying her brothers.</div>

Which brings us to today.... Since February 18th, she's walking more and more - although she is still really hesitant to walk, unless she is holding your hand or using her little walker toy. Once in awhile, she'll be brave and walk across the room. This past weekend, she tackled the stairs, and went all the way up and all the way down (I'll have to try and get those videos loaded on soon). She's finally getting it all figured out! It will be interesting to see how long it takes her to finally walk on her own, without screaming for someone's hand to hold. She's a funny girl!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here's is one last video, taken on February 19th. I was cooking dinner and she came into the kitchen and stood herself up and started walking back and forth on her own. She hasn't done it since, but I love this video!</div>

When we bought our home - almost 10 years ago, we never could have guessed that the couple that bought the home next to ours would become like family! They were a sweet little couple, and we slowly got to know them. Then we had Adam, and they had a little boy about 8 months later. They they had a little girl and 11 months later we had Jackson. Then they moved away to Edmonds. We were all so sad! But, since they've moved away, we still see them every couple of months, and they still feel like family. Over the long Presidents day weekend, Adam and Jackson had a sleepoever at their house, and they had so much fun! Jeff and Quyen are so amazing and they make my boys feel like they are at home. The kids got to build their own forst to sleep in! Here's Adam and Xander's fort...</div>

Jackson and Maira took turms riding bikes. Quyen has generously saved some of Maira's things for Kate and she was thinking that these pink riding gloves could be passed on to her when Maira was done with them. Little did she know that pink is Jackson's favorite color!! She said it was pretty funny to watch Maira help Jackson get them on!</div>

We love having such great friends! The boys loved having a sleepover! We did find out the Jackson is a little theif! Apparently, before they went to bed, Quyen found that Jackson had swiped Jeff's wedding ring and put it in his bag. Then, when I went to pick them up, I found several toys in his bag that didn't belong to him. Then, after getting home and unpacking everything, I found a bag of chuck e cheese coins. We have never been to chuch e cheese, so I know they don't belong to us! I think all of the items that have mysteriously gone missing around the house must have been swiped by Jackson!Tammyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17710564366295759258noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5580893898801240318.post-20420821954274022592013-02-18T13:08:00.000-08:002013-05-10T13:12:01.539-07:00100th Day of School<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Adam's class celebrated the 100th day of school on February 15th. Maybe all schools do this now - I don't ever remembering celebrating this when I was in elementary school, but Adam did it last year in Kindergarten and this year in 1st grade. My mom had the day off from work, so she came and stayed with Jackson and Kate so I could go in and help with the celebration. I ended up spending almost the whole day there! Adam's teacher is great, and she had so many fun projects to do with the kids. It was a long day, and I came home exhausted and with a very big appreciation for what elementary school teachers do every day!</div>

Here are a few pictures. They made glasses, and crazy hats and took a group picture when they were all done. Adam was being a goof ball!!</div>
