Church

I can hardly believe that this is my 100th post. So much has happened in 100 posts. Today was the big day. We finally took the boys to church. I wasn't quite sure how it would all work, but they did really well. Chruch happens to be in the middle of nap time, so we lucked out. We fed them right before we left and they made it through Relief Society and Sunday School before waking up. Thanks to my wonderful neighbors (Lesa and Linzy) we survived.

Aiden, Brock and Collin all ready in their church clothes.



This weekend has been demo weekend. My kitchen is pretty much torn up. All day Saturday we couldn't even get into the kitchen. Matt ripped all of the upper cabinets and the fir downs down. Then he had to put sheet rock up and we had someone come and start on the electrical work. Hopefully this week we can get the door moved, the texturing done on the ceiling and all the patch work done. Then painting, flooring and the day of the new kitchen will arrive. I can hardly wait. It will be so nice. I am so thankful that Matt loves demoing stuff. He is also really handy building, fixing and putting things together. We sure save a lot of money by him doing most of the work.




The boys are all rolling over now. Brock rolled for the first time on Wednesday and Aiden finally joined the group on Friday. It is so funny to watch them once they get over. They just sit there with their arms underneath them and lift their head up and look around.


Kayla continues to be a handful. She is so defiant. I tell her something and she just looks at me and says no, or completely ignores me and does her own thing. When she falls down the stairs, which happened this week, I ran to see if she was ok and she said "Don't look at me." She just wants to be left alone and not fussed over. Somedays I just don't know what to do with her. I am so glad that Paige is usually pretty good. We do have moments, but we are getting there. I just keep telling myself, "Tomorrow Is Another Day."

Hey Brook!
You guys are so ambitious! Your house is going to look great. The boys are growing so fast. We are going to come up this weekend, so hopefully we will get to see you guys. Good luck with the kitchen.

Those boys just look so darn cute. How can you even stand it?!?!?! So sorry about Kayla. That must be so frustrating. Maybe she's still adjusting?? I have no idea.

I can't wait to see your finished house. I might have to "stop by" while in the neighborhood in a few weeks when it's all done. :o)

Brooke your boys are adorable. I think they are starting to look different from each other. I hope to see you all soon. Things are tough for us...I'm working quite a bit. When I get a chance I need to come see you.
