Welcome to May

Over the weekend we went down to my parents house. Well, just Saturday morning we went down and came back Saturday night. Mitch graduated from SUU so we went down for the graduation. Go Mitch! Mike, Ashlee and Jensen were there too. After the graduation we had dinner then we headed for home. I wish we could of stayed longer, but it was a fun trip.

I haven’t been up to much. I have been kind of trying to work in the yard. I got some onions and peas planted and hope to plant more this week. I planted my tomatoes from seed again this year (inside) I did it a little bit later than last year (next year will do earlier) but they should be ready to plant in a week or two. I am excited, I love getting veggies from the garden, especially tomatoes, yum! I had some potatoes that I didn’t dig up last year and they spouted and were plants. The potatoes were where we were going to till so I moved them to a new location and they seem to have survived. I need to get my other potatoes planted too.

Kyle is just getting big big! I can’t believe that he is almost 4 months old. He is the best baby ever. He has been sleeping through the night which I LOVE! Just this last week he has discovered his thumb. I am against thumb sucking, only because I was a thumb sucker for way to long. I remember coming home from kindergarten and sucking my thumb on the couch. I also remember that it messed up the way I swallow (or that is what I blame it on) I would push against my teeth when I swallowed and the dentist said that I couldn’t get braces until I corrected it or it would mess up my teeth once I got the braces off. As far as Kyle goes, I think it is cute and it does sooth him. I still try to just give him the pacifier, but it seems to fall out and then when I check on him he has is thumb in his mouth. At least with the pacifier I can take it away when he is one. I guess if he is still sucking his thumb I might have to put a sock over his hand and pin it to his pj’s, that is what my mom had to do to Tennille when she was little. It got her to stop though.

Kara is still my little helper. She is a funny little girl. She always tells me when she is big like me then she can touch the ceiling, random.

Tyler is mister social butterfly. He has several friends in the neighborhood that he always wants to be playing with. He also likes to go everywhere barefoot, including riding his scooter.

We got out the bikes and Trent’s was to small, so we got him a new one and he has been riding it a lot. He is very thoughtful young man. A boy in his primary class had a birthday and so he came home and made him a birthday card and took it to him.

Well that’s our update!
