J-U-M-P

Logan is very interested in letters and spelling, his latest is JUMP. I had to bribe him to get it on video, but here it is. He is standing on his step-stool, and at the end he falls off of it. pretty funny. enjoy!

Can't wait till Saturday

For those of you that don't know we are moving this Saturday. I could not be more excited! We are absolutely melting here. Everyday I say something like 'this is our last Sunday here.' or 'this is the last Monday that I will have to wash dishes!' We are mostly packed up, what isn't are pretty much essential items. Steve's mom is taking the boys all day on Friday so that I can get all the last minute stuff done. So nice to have family so close, they are always willing to help out. Such a blessing. I am so glad that we are going to be done with this soon. ahhhh.

Logan's Birthday

Today is Logan's third birthday. Hard to believe that three years ago he was just 7 1/2 lbs. He constantly amazes me with how clever he is and how caring he is. He is a ball of energy and I love him exactly how he is. When mama isn't feeling well he loves to help take care of me. When Bronson needs me, he holds his hand and walks him to me. He loves all animals,but especially anything that lives in water. He is a neat freak, and hates things to be broken -even cookies. He loves to 'help', and he makes me laugh everyday. He is such a light in my life and I am humbled to be able to be his mother.

Just last night Logan was crying when I put him to bed. I went in to check on him and see if I could help. He was upset that I had taken his Jesus picture off the wall when I was packing. Once I replaced the picture he was ready to sleep.

We had a party for Logan today at the park. We had lots of friends and family there to celebrate with us. It was nice having it at a park because it allowed the kids to run around and play. After Bronson's party we promised Logan that he could also have a pinata for his birthday, however I did not have time to make him one with trying to move and all, so we bought them and let the kids go at it.
We have great next-door neighbors here and we are going to miss them when we leave. Randi actually made the cakes for the party and they turned out unbelievably cute. Everyone kept asking me if I had made them. I wish! We had a good time and I am glad it is done with. Thanks to everyone who came, it is always nice to see people that you don't get to see as often as you would like to.

We're Moving!!

We have been in a very tiny apartment for about 8 months now. It does not have a dishwasher, only has two bedrooms and we thought it had AC, but it doesn't. We have found a new home, and couldn't be more pleased! It is a townhome in Springville, 3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms, and over 5o% more square footage! We are so fortunate, they are holding it for us till the end of the month (we had to give 30 days notice here).

The front of our townhome. Playgound is a ten second walk from the front door. Also very close to another playgound, the pool, tennis courts, hot tub, and clubhouse.

Just inside the main entrance- I am sure you can't tell, but there are nine-foot ceilings and two-tone paint. ah- I am in heaven!

Standing in the same spot as the previous picture, this is of our front room- bay window behind me, and you can see into the kitchen in front of me.

View from the kitchen into the living room. There is a DISHWASHER!! Granite countertops, glass-top stove, TONS of cupboard space. I think being so cramped for so long has made me appreciate all these things more!
Another view of the kitchen.

Boys bathroom.


My beautiful walk-in closet! I cannot wait to fill it up!

I guess that pretty much covers it- except, there is a door in the laundry room that leads to our little yard (by yard I mean patio with some dirt - no grass- and a small shed). It is plenty of space for a kiddie pool and sandbox. I think the boys will like having some safe outside space.

Well. that concludes the tour. I am sure you didn't find it nearly as exciting as I did! Can't wait to have everyone over!
