Let's catch up.

Here we are...the last day in January. I noticed that I blogged a total of 2 times this month. That is an ALL TIME low. Not acceptable. I figured I'd better write something today so I at least have THREE entries this month. How about a little random entry....a little catch up on everyone since its been so long.

Baby Ty is doing so well. He slept through the night a total of 3 times in the past 5 days. I think we're making some serious progress with my "worst" sleeping baby. He went to the Doctor for his 2 month check up this past week. He weighs 13.7 pounds. He's in the 75th percentile. His is only in the 45th for height. He's a short fat dude. I am head over heels in love with him. He smiles, and coos and makes it so easy to be obsessed with him. When he got his shots he screamed so loud and for so long. He was very upset..it was hard to listen to. ;(

Anna has started talking up a storm. She is getting SO fun. She says, "Hi Tyty!" all the time. She says, "hot, bye-bye, shoes, boots, Dal, baby, num num, baba, night night, poopoo one, two, nose, no, and MINE!" She plays with her little stroller and her baby dolls all day every day. She follows me around and wants to help with whatever I'm doing. Cleaning, sweeping, folding clothes (or throwing them around), vacuuming, changing diapers...you name it and my little helper is right there willing to do it. (Or getting in the way!)


Landon is really thriving in 1st grade. Switching schools was VERY good for him. He has struggled with reading for some time but this new teacher has whipped him into shape. He is now reading up to grade level and getting better all the time. It's such a relief because I really worried about him. He is doing exceptionally well in math. That is definitely the subject that he is the most comfortable with. He's anxiously waiting to start his basketball season in a month or so.


Parks is also doing well at the new school. He has tons of friends and has given all of the athletes in his grade a little run for their money. He cracked his heel at the beginning of the month but it was a quick recovery with a walking boot. Good thing he wasn't out for too long because he doesn't know what do to with himself when he can't play basketball. His team is SO fun to watch. It has to be one of my all time favorite things in life is to watch him play. Last week they beat a team of 4th graders 68-6 and then another team of 4th graders 45-10.

Dallin is staying busy with piano and has just been accepted into the after school enrichment program again. He goes to a special school after school to learn more about a particular topic. February's topic is creative writing. He received his very first B plus on his report card this past week. He was very upset. What did he get it in? Accelerated 6th grade math! He is being very challenged and I LOVE it. He's doing very well for joining the class 3 months into the year. He had to go back and get caught up with everyone else. He asks me for help and I have to have Nate do it. I can't remember all of this algebra stuff!
