I have been waiting to get some pictures from my camera before I posted again, but I have been lazy about it and decided it was time to put up another post, pictures or no pictures. The last month has been pretty good. We had a nice Easter. We each had our own little bunny basket with goodies (pictures to come...eventually) in it and we watched general conference. It was spectacular. Then after that we had a get together at my mom's house for my sister's birthday and we had lots of food and played lots of games. I really enjoy family get togethers, we don't get to do them very often.
My little ones sure are growing strong. Jordyn rolled over for the first time at the family party on Easter. We made her do it about 5 times in a row because everyone wanted to see her do it, and now when we lay her on the floor she isn't on her back for two seconds before she rolls right over. She also started reaching for things and grabbing them and pulling them to her. I think that's so cute. She weighs about 14 pounds now and the doctor said she was perfectly proportioned, right in the 75th percentile for her whole body. She is so cute and she makes me so happy. I don't know what I would do without her.
Uriah will be two in June, I can't believe it! He is so smart. He can open the doors now, which is kind of a bummer because on Saturday mornings we could sleep in for a long time while he played in his room because he couldn't get out, and now he can pretty much get into any room he wants to. He got a Thomas train and a small track for Easter and he loves it. He walks around going "choo choo!" and on our Netflix we get some Thomas and Friends movies for instant watch and he loves to watch those too. On the 17th we went to the Toys R Us in Idaho Falls because they were having a Thomas and Friends party. Uriah got to color a Thomas picture and put on a conductor's hat and play with some trains. We got him an expansion for his track and another engine. His favorite movie is Pixar's CARS. He likes to pick a movie and watch it over and over again for a while. He likes Home on the Range, Finding Nemo, Cars, and Kung Foo Panda. We also borrowed some Elmo's World movies from my sister and he absolutely LOVES Elmo. Uriah calls him "Momo". Even more than movies, Uriah loves to be outside. I think he could play outside all day long if we let him. The only way he can get some outside time is if we take him to my mom's or sister's. They have back yards that are fenced in or protected. His love to be outside makes me more and more impatient for us to get our own house. Everything has its own time.
Another semester is almost over for Jared. We found out that there is a Physical Therapy Assistant Program and we are going to try to get Jared in there. He has always wanted to go into Physical Therapy but he never had good enough grades to apply. We are really hoping he can get into the Assistant program. I know it would make him happy to finally have some direction with his schooling.
A spring semester over for Jared means an early summer for me, and when I say early I mean that when summer starts college hours change to 7:30-4:00, so even though I get off work an hour earlier than normal, I have to be to work at 7:30 in the morning, and I already have a hard time getting to work at 8...oh well...
In other news, my sister had her baby on Monday! He is so cute. His name is Roman Gabriel Waggoner and he was 8 lbs 10 oz. Big boy! And he has a full head of dark dark hair. Very adorable. It makes me want another baby, but I've already got one! We are definitely going to wait longer than 4 months before we try having another baby! (^_^)
