Funny Story

Before I forget.....

The girls are home from school today "resting" because they are both congested. I came into the office early this morning to do a few things on the computer with my ITunes and the girls are watching PBS. A few minutes later, Laci comes running into me. She yells, "Hey Guys! Breakfast!"

I go out to the kitchen and discover Laci's surprise. She had gotten out the cocoa puffs, milk, and paper bowls. She was in the process of getting out the spoons. She had poured cereal into all 3 bowls AND soy milk(bleh) in each one too! My 3 year old made breakfast this morning!! Then she handed Sam and I each our spoons and sat down and ate.

It really was the cutest thing ever. I am impressed she didn't make a big mess. We will need to work on the soy milk in mommy's bowl for next time.

I have fantastic kids!

Recovery Update

Apparently, it has been too long since I last updated my blog. Things are going well in our little home.

Last week I went down to the Institute and started taking the last 4 weeks of the Book of Mormon class. I have really enjoyed being back in that environment again. Plus, it gets me out of the house twice a week for an hour. I have been trying to figure out what I want to do next with my life. The librarian at Samantha's school found out I enjoy libraries and has offered to have me come over and volunteer anytime. Maybe I can do that next year when both the girls are in school til two. I could do it now, but I have institute Monday and Wednesday, and Physical Therapy on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

It has been VERY frustrating that I have not been able to walk without pain yet. In fact, I completely forget I can't walk, until I go to do something and I think, "Oh. Ow." That may be confusing, but I just have a very hard time moving my muscles when in any pain. My legs are very tense. I only have 3 more visits of the physical therapy left. Today was the first day I got up on my crutches instead of the walker. After walking for about a minute or two, the pain in my abdomonal muscles magically went away! I am able to move so much better on my crutches than the walker. It finally stimulated the right muscles! The therapist has also given me a theraband so I can do exercises when he isn't here. There seems to finally be some light at the end of the tunnel!

The girls are doing well. FINALLY healthy! They have gone a few weeks without being sick! YAY! Laci is on spring break this week, and though I have enjoyed her being home and not having to wake up as early(15 minutes), I am ready for her to go back to school. I had a meeting with her teachers on Tuesday. Laci has a hidden hobby I didn't know about. Apparently when they do play time at school, they can move to table to table and do what they want to do. Laci spends almost the entire time doing the puzzles! Who knew, puzzles! They believe she is a visual learner because of that and a few other things.

For those of you wondering. Tyler is doing really well. I received some pictures this weekend and he has a double chin and a big wide gut! Jen is still floating on air, and she is probably the cutest new mom I have ever seen! (Though that may be biased)

That is all I can think of. I hope everyone has a good week.

Here is a picture of Laci blow drying her own hair after bathtime. She now insists on doing it herself!
