Kindergarten

Well Ausitn started Kindergarten on August 4th. How sad. I enjoy it because it gets him out of my hair for a few hours. I enjoyed pre-school more because it was a full day, now he's only half day. He loves it though. Some of his friends from pre-school are in his class. Now he gets to make new friends!!!! I can't believe how fast they grow up. He's getting so independent also. That's hard. Oh well I can't stop him from growing up :(

Unfortunately this is the year the school turns them into sales people. Too bad for him, His Mother is not a sales person at all. We may not sell many of these Happenings books, Oh well.

The Twilight series

Ok, So I have now read all the books in the Twilight series. SOOOOOOOO good!!!! I read the last one in 4 days. Needless to say my kids were igonored a little bit. If anyone has not read them, they should. I'm not going to give anything away though.

Let me know what you think about the series(especially the las one)!!!!

Memories

I thought it would be interesting to see what things you remember about our family.

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you know me a little or a lot, anything you remember as long as it's nice;)!

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.Come and play

1 going on 12

Hailee is now 1. I can't believe it. She is getting 4 teeth on the top all at once. She had an awesome birthday, Thanks to those that came! I love everything she got! Especially the ice cream from Logan! I'll post pics as soon as I get them off my camera or as soon as Jason gets them off.


As far as what else is going on, Our Cat (Garfield) died on Thursday. Never give a 5 year old a cat. They lock them in things and don't tell anyone. Austin locked the cat in his food container and we didn't know, we had gone to the store and when we got home I asked Austin to feed the dog and the cat. Well, He came to me and said "Mom, the cat is dead". I didn't believe him so I had to check it out, sure enough the cat was dead. It was very sad. We waited up for Jason to bury him.
I am not sure Austin understands that Garfield is not coming back. How do you explain death to a 5 year old, Any suggestions?

Guess who's crawling?

On saturday June 21, Hailee found something she really wanted. A peice of paper. She got on her knees and started crawling towards it. If I can figure out how to get the video on here I will put it on!

Vacation in Wisconsin

We had a blast in Wisconsin. Hailee loved the swings at the park and Austin would not get off the go karts. I can't get a slideshow to work right now so maybe one way or another you will get to see more of the pictures!

Hailee's First Haircut

Hailee recieved her first Haircut! She only had some hair on the top of her head so we evened it out! Meaning we shaved her bald! Austin took the pictures, He did good!

Family Fun Weekend

As you can see, we got a small pool. We got Hailee the little boat and she did not like the water!

Austin took over the pink boat and we could not get him out of it! I guess we should have gotten him a blue or green one, oh well, he can be the princess now!

Our fitness Program

Ok, So we got the wii fit and I am sore! We have used it everyday since we got it. It gives you an age, I assume its how lazy you are, but my age is 42. Apparently I need to get off my butt more! We also got the wee ski with it. That is kind of fun. Different but fun!

Jason's Calling!

Jason had a meeting with the Bishop on Sunday. He is the second head master in the scouts now. He is also receiving the priesthood ( when he can get to church and get set apart). I'm so happy for him!

We also are working on a big accomplishment! We are quitting smoking. We may need a little more help than we thought. Please keep us in your prayers!

9 months old :(

I can't believe how fast time flies. Hailee is now 9 months old and finally getting teeth. She is very grumpy with this new change. She is also sitting up now and may be crawling before we know it. She lifts her bum in the air now but no movement yet.
