I'M BACK!!! It has been 4 months in the making :) I didn't realize how busy everything had gotten around here until I looked at my last post and realized it was from Jaxton's birthday in January :(
So here is a recap :
JANUARY
School started back up for Kaydree and Winter semester started back up for me. Jaxton turned 2 (see previous post) and Austin took me on a drive to Utah to look for what I thought was going to be a new van.....but when we showed up at the dealership this was waiting for me!!!! I love that man :) It's so beautiful with all black leather interior too....it's so fun to be able to take this with us and pull trailers instead of his big loud truck :)
FEBRUARY
Austin's birthday was on the 1st and played out the same as usual with no celebrations :( He's really not enjoying the growing up process and says he doesn't want to get old.....but it's still gonna happen :) We partied it up at home with the kids by making pizza and playing wii bowling!
Superbowl was an adventurous day! We were all just about to walk out the door to head to a superbowl party at the theatre where his brother works when we heard Jaxton let out a huge wail and then a cry like none other to find this:
It looks like a pair of scissors cut right through his ear. Kaydree and Jaxton were playing tug of war with a tube of chapstick when he flew back into the brick fireplace spliting his ear right open.....a few minutes later he conked out sleeping which scared me the most worrying about head trauma. The doctor had to sedate him to keep him still which was weird to see.
And here it is.....It is hardly noticable today...
MARCH
Kaydree turned 6!! I can hardly believe it either! She is such a pretty little girl! She had a little party in "outer space" AKA Blast Off with our carpool group and then we had a family party at home.
The kids and their cousin Kamryn...before Kaydree's birthday they were 5,4,3,and 2 years old :)
We had a Hawaiin party and Kaydree really wanted a flower cake :)
APRIL
This year we headed west of Rigby to Menan to their annual Easter Egg Hunt...the kids had so much fun collecting their prizes and drinking their chocolate milk :)
Brayden turned 5!!! This birthday has been a long time in the making!! For some reason 5 has been the number for him....because he gets to start kindergarten in a few months!! We did kindergarten shots and registration and he was so excited!!
For his birthday we invited 3 of his friends and went out to pizza and then hit the bowling alley for some fun!!
Breakfast in bed....I even had to wake him up :)
Brayden's primary teacher stopped by to give him a birthday gift(she is soooo sweet) and took a picture of us :)
My attempt at a pirate cake..haha...I didn't have anything I needed so we had to get creative :)
It didn't quite make it to the bowling alley either :(
Brayden and his siblings and friends
I also found out that I was ACCEPTED into the nursing program!! I don't start until January though which is okay because that means no school for 8 months :)....I also got a job working full time in the ER from 7pm to 7am 3 nights a week (which has proved to be too much for me with getting less and less sleep so I'm trying to move to 2 nights)....but everyone is doing super good and Austin is staying a super busy building homes!
AND...Jaxton has even started to talk (and alot)!!
