 Joe's Baptism Day!!

 

 I am so blessed to have such a great man who is able to do great things for our family!

 

 

 I am so proud of this kid!

 

 The boys !

 

 

Joe and his Evelyn!

 

 

 

Only a week into the year, and it has been busy already! We had Joe's baptism, basketball is starting for the boys, we got a new puppy, and Evelyn is SO close to walking. I swear, that girl never tires. Literally. She never sleeps. She is a busy busy girl, who does not have time for such shenanigans. She reminds me a lot of how Trenton was when he was a baby; super sensitive to temperature, texture, and thirst or hunger. This is means that if anything is slightly wrong, she is awake and slightly fussy. She is just a go getter!

 

Trenton is starting in "big kid" basketball. Practices during the week, and games at the middle school. This is great, and he is doing well with it all.

 

Joe starts basketball Saturday.. they both do, and Rex and I have to spilt up Saturday mornings so someone is at each one of their games, as they coincide.

 

Benji starts Kindergarten basketball camp right when Joe and Trenton's basket ball season ends. So January and February, we live-eat- and breath basketball.

 

In other news, I got confirmation today, that I have officially graduated!! WOO HOO!

 

Now, onto life without my schooling, and focus on more of my kidos! 

They're Back and This and That

I thought I might start stalking up on diapers now.... why wait, right? So, I price matched the heck of diaper deals at Walmart and stacked them up with coupons. Huggies diapers for 5.99. LOVE IT!

At least I am getting a nice long break from actually changing diapers for a while!

Trenton's basketball is wrapping up today, and Joe's basketball is half way over. Then starts soccer. Boys are exhausting !

Week 2 of graveyard for Rex is killing us all. Ben is having the hardest time. He does not understand why daddy is sleeping all day. Only a few more weeks!

School is 1/4 of the way done. :) Hooray! I really like my speech class, surprisingly.

Our Disney tickets came in the mail yesterday!!! They are pretty.

It is absolutely killing me not knowing what this little baby is yet! We have to wait clear until MAY. That is forever. I have never been so impatient.

We are re arranging the whole house soon. Should be fun.

I am ready to start gardening already. I miss my plants and veggies.

I am done now.

Really?

I have been so stinkin sick this past week. Most of the time it has been coughing, congestion, ear pain ect.. and then today hit... and mixture of the above noted symptoms added to nausea, throwing up, and horrid stomach pains. What a fun Saturday we had. Thankfully the boys have already passed over the pukyness.
 I had to miss Trenton's basketball game today. It was the first game of the season, but thankfully Grammy and Papa stepped in and cheered him on. His team won 24-4! Awesomeness.

That is all-- Carry on you healthy beings.

Weird Week

This past week has just been plain odd. Rex has been recovering from his dental surgery, and we had spring break, but it all went by so fast and it was a lot more stressful than I thought it would be. Trenton and I did not get to read Harry Potter, we didn't get to go to the library. I did get to go to the Twin Falls Library book sale though... I was also bummed that NONE of my Young Women came to the YW's conf. on Saturday. It was just me and one other leader who made it. :( We are going to re watch it with all the girls though for a Mutual gathering coming up. Still a bummer though, it was such a good conference.

 We bought a basketball hoop and basketball for Trenton and it has been wellll used! He is getting really good!!

 So here is Rexy's brand new smile!! I think he looks awesome!! They look good for fake teeth!

 

Mr. Tman's basketball hoop ( please disregard the neighbors construction and contractor pictured in the back ground) 

 And this is my latest buy. Allllll of this : 75 bottles of Powerade, and 36 bottles of Fuze, and 70 cans of NOS energy drink (purely for Rex) for the low low price of 18.00, 93% savings. Awesome :)

Trenton's Basketball game

 Trenton's first basket. He loves this game. I am so glad he has found a sport he likes. 

 He was so involved and serious, it was cute. 

Trenton at practice. I have to say, the boys has good form.
