Levi turns 1!

We love our little guy. He is such a fun, sweet boy.

Good morning birthday boy!

Breakfast time.

Bath time.

We love naked wet babies.

Birthday trip to Discovery museum.

Daddy feeds the birthday boy dinner.

Time for presents.

Levi got a new swing

He loved it.

Since bath time is one of Levi's favorite times of the day, he had a bath tub cake.

Dig in, buddy!

Spring Soccer

Charity's first season of soccer - she was actually pretty good.
She was one of the only players that would
actually go on the field and play, so she played a lot.

Ammon was a little less flaky than last season and had fun on his team.

Easter 2009

Finally updating....

It has been so long since I have updated our blog, that I don't even know how to do it anymore. I had to call Seth to get the password even. I am not sending out any info in our Christmas cards this year, so I thought I better update this so that you could have a little peek into our year.

When Seth broke his leg, it turned our world upside down - or mine at least. All of the work landed on me, and I no longer had any free time. I eventually got my free time back, but never got back to the blog. So, here is our year in review

Caught wet handed

Yesterday I noticed Levi was wet. His sleeves were wet and his pants were wet. I asked the kids if they knew why he was wet and Sadie said he was playing in the toilet. I have never had a kid play in the toilet (though I am sure it is about my turn) and didn't really believe it coming from Sadie.

But today, he was caught in the act. The funny thing is that he even had the toilet brush in the toilet and was scrubbing away. I wish I had gotten a picture of my little helper!

Ice Skating

Last Wednesday we took the kids ice skating for the first time. We went with our good friends the Cupsas and we really had a great time. I was worried that the kids would hate it because I knew they would have a hard time learning, but they had fun and Ammon and Charity were getting much more confident by the end of the night. We took our camera, but of course we were too involved to take any pictures.

We did get this picture taken later that night though.


Notice the smaller bone (fibula). You may have to click on it to get a better view.

Apparently someone needs to teach Seth how to skate. I guess it'll be a while until we go again.

Just missed it

I just read about the new stimulus plan (as if it's going to work), and found out that first time home buyers in the year 2009 will receive an $8000 tax credit - that doesn't have to be repaid.

I guess we bought our house just a few months too early. grrrrrrrrr
