Out of the Loop

I like blogging. It makes me feel connected to people and that I can actually have interaction outside of my kids. I enjoy looking at other blogs and knowing what is going on in peoples lives.

I haven't been the best at updating my blog lately so here goes....

Easter we went to Lovell. The next weekend we went to Aunt Charlotte and Uncle Mike's for Stake Conference. The last 2 weeks Wes has been working in Lovell, so we have been staying with his family. When we came home this weekend Shalon has kept asking for Grandpa and Holly.

That is a short synopsis of what's been happening. Hopefully I'll get more in depth later.

Snow, Before and After the Storm

I don't know how much snow we actually got. However the roads were closed today.

Cute kids

This is a typical face Shalon pulls.

All smiles. :)

Shalon's new hairdo

Side profile

I decided to do something to Shalon's hair besides the typical one ponytail on top or pigtails. She did pretty well holding still and I think it turned out cute. Now we'll see if Wes notices when he gets home tonight from Casper.

Getting Big

Yesterday was Cutler's one month checkup. I can hardly believe it. He has grown 2 inches (is now 21 inches) and gained 3 lbs. (is now 9 lb 9 oz.) Time sure flies.

Happy Birthday

Today is Wes' 25th birthday. Yesterday he got to open presents and eat an ice cream cone. Today is he working in Casper for the rest of the week. I was going to go down with the kids tomorrow after Cutler's 1 month check up (I can't believe he's that old already) but will probably be staying home instead. It's been blizzarding across the state of Wyoming. We got 4-5 inches I'm guessing I don't really know. When I talked to Wes at lunch Casper had around 8. The interstate has been closed and they don't expect things to get better until tomorrow afternoon. So we will probably finish celebrating his birthday when he gets home.

Happy Birthday Wes. We love you!

Our Weekend

This weekend I kept Wes busy. Friday we finally raked up all the leaves in the back yard. They filled up the back of his truck. He took it all to the dump. He acquired some cabinets and countertops from work this week (they are remodeling a dorm at the girls school and are getting rid of everything inside). It was such a nice day we went for a walk to the park and Shalon played on the slides and swings.

Saturday Wes put up drywall in my laundry room and put up the cabinets and countertops he got for me. I am excited it's starting to come together. We are going to get another large metal shelving unit from Costco like the one already in the picture. It'll fit along the wall at the end of the cabinets.

A New First

Shalon pooped in the toilet today. Whoo-hoo!
