Well its the 2nd day of March and I have spring fever and it's trying to snow outside. I have been on the road since the end of January when I went down for Bailey's birthday and was there 2 1/2 weeks. Mary was released from the Care Center and it's too long a story to tell here, Jenna and I ended up taking care of her at Jenna's house. She is doing better but she won't get up and move around and by now she should be back to almost normal. I am worried that her muscles will atrophy as she just sits and lets the care nurses take care of her every need.
Bailey invited Kamryn and Lauren to go with her on a horseback ride for her birthday followed by evening swimming. It was a fun weekend. I am so glad Troy and Maggie came down and let Kamryn share the day with Bailey. I can't believe Bailey is 7. She loves school and crafts and has a little spunk. As a mother it might drive me crazy, but she won't let anyone push her around.
I stayed to take Mary to two dr. appointments and then it was Presley's 3rd birthday. She had a Minnie Mouse birthday party that was really cute. Neil, Laurie and Lauren came so she had a special evening. Presley is full of life and such a fun little monkey. She is my buddy and I really enjoy her. I had to come home so I missed Gunnar's birthday on the 11th. Gunnar turned 9 on the 11th - can you believe it? He's 9... he is so smart and such a good little boy. I felt bad, but I had been gone for 2 1/2 weeks.
I went to Thatcher on the 19th of February for Tanner's 2nd birthday and stayed for a week. Tanner is a cute little guy. He didn't feel good starting Sunday, Maggie found out later he had strep throat. He doesn't talk much, but boy is he busy. He is a full time kid. I just barely got home and it's time to go again for Trentin's birthday. I am going to miss Callie's birthday this year. I told Jenna and Maggie that they are going to have to combine Trentin and Callie's birthday because I can't be in 2 places at one time.
After Trentin's birthday, it will be Dad's birthday and then I have a break until May, HOORAY!
The kids are doing well in school and I couldn't be more proud of them. They are smart, funny, fun, sweet, and I love every minute of them.
Ryker is home! He spent the night with me on Wednesday and I loved having him. I am so glad Chelsea is back. Chelsea is pregnant and due in May and she says she will be here until then.
Tad is getting married in May and just started his new job with Empire today. I hope it goes good for him. He really loves Stormy and she seems crazy about him, too.
Little Cade is such a chunk...Maggie's chubbiest baby. He is a good baby. He is 4 1/2 months old - growing every day! Callie is walking and will be 1 in a few days. The last year has flown by and I am so grateful for every minute of every day with my family and friends.
I am going to California with Jenna and Weston during spring break - the kids are excited. I went a couple of years ago and it was fun. I know Brinley and Presley will love the princesses and the little kid areas.
I need to blog more often. One day I need to print my blog stuff. Life is busy and I love it.
