Where did the time go??

Lots has been happening lately, stresses, kids growing up, buying a new(used) van, and moving into a bigger/better place!

Now to back up... Lots has happened since I posted last...

1- We got hit on Father's day on our way to family dinner, no one was hurt! Squirt had fun telling Grandma Rosie that "The car just got broke, the wheels they just got broke" He had fun running around with Grandpa Rosie while we filled out the police report and called our insurance company. In the end the other guys insurance deemed our car "Totaled" (hence the above mention of getting a new(used) van.

2 - our kids our growing up. Squirt turns 4 tomorrow and Peanut turns 1 next month. Squirt is so excited, so last night we made pink (yes I said pink) cupcakes with Blue frosting (yes that took lots of convincing from me) He has a birthday party with friends at Grandma's tomorrow and E & B are making him a Spiderman cake(thanks E for doing this before your carpel tunnel surgery) Peanut now has 8 teeth and come next week he will be on the toddler side at daycare not the baby side. Peanut loves to eat things that he can feed himself - Cheerios, Fruit Loops, Graham Crackers, Crackers, Puffs. And Guess who can walk now!! Yep Peanut can walk not perfectly yet but he can take many unassisted steps. At Grandma Rosie's he walked from her couch to her TV while eating a Graham Cracker!

3 - we bought a used van - if you need a good used vehicle let me know and I can give you the name of the place we went. They are awesome and when we had battery problems a few days after we bought it they got us a new battery. Thanks E for the referral.

4 - yes we are moving to a huge 3 bedroom apt and it is under $1000.00 a month. We are really blessed right now and are looking forward to moving (it is happening fast but we will make it.) We will miss our current ward and they will miss us as we are leaving them with 2 big holes (my wonderful husband is the executive secretary and I am the 2nd counselor in the primary) but we will be back for Squirt to do the program with his friends in the ward.


5-we got to see my sister-in-law and nieces yesterday for about an hour and Squirt and the Princess had so much fun playing. It was hard leaving for daycare/work.

Pictures of this weekend to come soon.
