You have been neglected for about a year now. I've been poked and prodded by many to get my act together and post something. I promise that I'm still alive. Lynn is surviving. My kids are healthy and happy and we are another year down in this residency program! Woot, Woot! I almost gave up on you, but decided that it was time to post something.
Updates...Clara is one now and just took a few steps yesterday! We are so excited for her and everyone loves her to pieces. She loves attention from her brothers and has such a cute little personality. Can I say that I love having a little girl? It's so much fun! Back in February we entered her into a Babies R' Us crawling contest and she won! She won us a $10 gift card and 3 months of free diapers. We were so excited and happy! Here she is at the finish line. Who knew that my cell phone was all it would take for her to crawl faster than the other babies :)
A quick visit from Grandma and Grandpa Belcher! Thanks for coming to see us :)
Peyton has grown up a lot this past year. He is in preschool and loves it. He loves to play computer games and play Legos with Porter. He is a funny kid and is always making us laugh. He can't wait to play soccer in the fall like his big brother. He is my best helper and loves to help with dishes and laundry. Both of which I despise! It makes it more bearable to do when he's there helping.
Cupcakes that I made for Saint Patrick's day. The kids loved them!
In March we had a fun visit with Grandpa Gurney. He endured another trip to the zoo and cosi. We did take a day trip up to Kirtland. It was way cool. I just wish Clara would have thought so too and I could have enjoyed it a little better. Thanks for coming to see us!
Porter has also had a great year. He loves first grade and I can't believe that he is almost 7! I have a kid whose almost 7...weird. He's been playing so hard in soccer and isn't afraid of playing with kids twice his size. He is such a great big brother and is now embarrassed to kiss me goodbye when he goes to school. I miss that! I understand though :)
We've been busy with a little mom's preschool that we rotate between us. We call it Jelly Bean school. Here is a group of the boys dressed up in our super hero costumes! They have a blast :) Peyton is in the Spiderman costume...he's a pretty good poser.
Lynn has been a trooper this past year. He's been busier than ever and we love it when he's home. Between residency and Young Men's we hardly see him. So, when he's home, the kids are all over him! We are enjoying our time, but we can't wait to live a normal life with a normal job. It's exciting that we are already looking for jobs! We are excited to know where we will be settling down, although we are so used to moving every 3 years. I don't know what we will do when we are actually settled...I'm sure I'll get used to it ;)
I've been enjoying this year, but find myself exhausted at the end of each day. Posting on the blog has been the last thing on my mind. I'm glad that I updated it, but don't expect much from me. It might be awhile until another post finds it's way here.
