So so so tired

We are sick. Again.
It feels we are sick about every other week.
This time it isn't just the kids I have it too, and the worst part is my body is already so tired from moving that I feel like I am falling apart. 
We are 2 weeks away from finally being settled in to our own separate apartment.
I can't wait. I really miss us.

I HATE being sick.

And the Thunder rolled

I love thunder storms
 To  me the best part of being in Utah in the summer is the way it can be Sticky icky and hot one moment and the next the wind comes rolling in and you can hear the low grumble of the thunder.
 Today's storm was particularly awesome. It poured like no other.

This morning while unpacking some boxes I came across a VHS Jones had from his mission of Melancholy and J's honeymoon in Europe. Of course I had to watch it. It was fun to see them 11 years ago!
plus it made me remember our own honeymoon in London. Those were some good times.

Alfy is almost 3 months old, He is getting so big. Yet he is still my little man.







C is pretty sick with a high fever, poor kid. Hope he feels better tomorrow.

Home Sweet Home



We are officially{kind of} moved in!

I will try to explain our crazy situation.
We are renting this home with my little sister {chels}from now on known as Piper on this bloggum, it is a two apartment home, one main floor and upstairs floor. We moved our stuff out of storage and into the vacant main floor, even though we are going to be living in the top floor because there is still another tenant there until Aug 6th. 
Piper and Scooter will move out of there current apartment and into this main floor with us this week. {squished!}
then after the other tenants move out we will move upstairs and everything will be the way it is going to be, At last!!

It is going to be an exhausting, interesting week, but right now I am enjoying the new place, sitting on the front porch, loving the view. :)

Things are happening...

We start moving into our new place tomorrow! It will be a process and take a while before we are settled but thats ok.

In the mean time I have been in the mood for hanging things, soft light summery things. So I turned to Martha, and found these two tutorial to keep me busy and satisfied while things are crazy.






These will make for fun decorations for Tober's 2nd birthday bash, and then they take their permanent place in our home.

Oh hello blog

I am in CA right now, my little sis came down for her roomates wedding and offered to take me and the kids with her. It is nice to be back down here and say hi to the fam.
On the way down Toblerone threw up in the car. Not fun. Today C threw up in the car. Nothing like a sick vacation.
 It is just gonna be one of those months when lots of things are crazy, lots of things go wrong but at the end of it we were blessed to be with family, and soon we will have a home again, which we will appreciate all the more.
Anyways I don't know what kind of access I will have to a computer or the internet so blogging might be a little spotty.

I feel happy though and like the Lord is taking care of us, and when I feel exhausted like I do right now I know I can put the important stuff in his hands and it is all going to be alright.

Happy 2 months.

{cell phone pic}
It has been two months since you joined our little family and we sure do love having you.
You are pretty mellow. You smile when I pay attention to you.
We have just obtained a baby bjorn carrier from your auntie and you love it. So do I. {mostly, my shoulders disagree}
Your brother and sister love to smooch ya.
You are growing to fast. Soon you will be moving and cooing like no other I am sure. 
Today I am just gonna cherish your tiny-ness and your inability to escape me :)

Hot Hot Hot

Well we have been here almost a week and it has been crazy busy. My parents are visiting as well as Chels' in laws for Biscuits birthday bash this morning. It was a fun, HOT, morning at the park.


 We got to eat tons of yummy food.

 Play at the park
 My poor kids got so flushed in the heat.

My favorite part was throwing water balloons, and getting soaking wet.


 It is fun to be here for this milestone.

 Biscuit and Gramma























Happy Birthday baby girl, and congrats Scott and Chels, you have such a cute family.
