Life

My lovely cousin reminded me that I do need to post something a little more regularly. In my defense we just got a new computer and we are still trying to get it all set up. So that is my excuse for why I haven't posted for the past month. I don't have any pictures loaded on this computer yet so you will have to wait a little while longer for those.
Here is a quick up date:
Mersadie- is now 10 months old and trying to learn to walk so that she can keep up with her brother who she adores. She can only take about one step by herself right now and I am not in a huge hurry for her to figure it out completely!
Carson- is still just a busy as ever! This week he finally started gymnastics, I have been talking about it for a while but just haven't taken him. So we took the plunge. This is his first "organized" activity (besides church) and I think it will be really good for him. Although we really need to work on his summersaults, I realized that I don't think he has ever done one, and he was really confused about what the lady was asking him to do. Yeah I know I am a bad mom, my kid has no idea what a summersault is! Although it was kind of funny.
Carson is also now a sunbeam, and although he had no problem going to nursery (in fact leaving nursery is when he screamed) he does not like sunbeams! He never wants me to leave, luckily he has a great teacher and he is finally getting used to her and now as long as she is there he will let me leave.
Dustin- is still working in the ICU at our hospital and loving that. But we are also waiting to hear back from a masters program. He is on the waiting list at Midwestern and they said that they could call any day right up until the first day school starts and tell him to come on down. So it is totally up in the air right now. Which is hard for me, I have NO patience!
Me- I am still working about one day a week in the PCU, right next door to Dustin, which is kind of fun when we work the same day, although we really don't see each other that much. I am also so excited about our new computer so that I can start editing our home videos which I love to do. I love to watch my kids over and over again. They are so much fun and bring me so much joy!

My goal now is to blog more often so I don't feel like I have so much to catch up on. And I will have my pictures for next time, because those are way more fun anyway!

I love to hear updates! Don't worry about Carson, Ella knows what a summersault is, but still can't do one! I think she is the only kid in her class that still doesn't have it yet.
Anyway you guys seem like you doing great and I can't wait to hear where you will be going next! I hope it is kind of close to us at least :)

Yea, I understand, I'm a slow blogger too!
That's cute how much Carson loved nursury; Peter and I are the Sunbeam teachers in our ward (yes, Peter, it's true!) and they are just now starting to get adjusted and comfortable; although we still have one little boy who informs me every week as we leave sharing time for our class that he would like to go to the room with the toys.

yeah, Carson would much rather go to the room with the toys too! Thankfully his sunbeam teacher brings a few toys that they can play with if they are good.

It's good to hear from you again!
you sounded a bit resentful when you mentioned your cousin!! Your family is so cute I'm glad you guys are doing good!

Seth, Lacey, Weston and Koper said...

Yeah for updates. Weston also just learned what a summersault (however you spell that...) is, he's still figuring out how to do one.

Sounds like everything is going so great for you guys!! Your kids are SO adorable (as if I needed to tell you that) If you have any free time give me a call and we'll do lunch or something!!
