Remember...

Remember that time I started a blog and then never updated it.....

Today in between conference sessions I watched the My Generations show on KBYU. It was awesome. I want someone to sponsor me on a family history tour. Anyway, something that was said really struck me. Natalie (the girl who was searching her history) found one of her ancestors, but couldn't find any information on her life. She talked about how sad it was that she had lived a life without any record of it. She was able to find some information later on, but it wasn't much. Holy cow. I don't want that to be me. Now, I don't actually equate blogging with journaling. There is a lot of stuff in my life that I don't want on my blog. I do have a journal too. But the more records the better, right?!?

Off we go

Max is...

Studying Hard
Driving a 1989 Lebaron (ridiculous)
Getting the highest grade in class on many of his tests
Working hard on his business. There was no Spring Break in this house. All work.
Being a great dad. How does he have so much energy to play all.the.time?
Is a really good husband and is always working to make me happy.
Got elected as the delegate for our caucus meeting and attended the convention awhile ago.
Still in the Nursery - 4 years and going strong
Playing basketball weekly with his friends. They just finished the church basketball season on Thursday. Hooray. That is dangerous stuff. Especially because they all come after Max since he is so tall. I still remember the surgery from a few years ago on a broken finger. Yikes.
Halle is....

Playing Soccer (after a lot of difficulty at the start, she loves it now!)
Loves, loves, loves preschool and is learning so much. She is devastated when she has a day off
Getting ready for kindergarten. How can this be?
Dancing away at her dance class
The BEST big sister to her brothers. Trey is lost when she isn't around.
A CTR 4 and reminds me like every day of this
Loves to clean the house and help me
Loves her playgroup every week
I don't know what I would do without this girl.

Trey is....

My little angel
Potty trained. Woo-hoo. (He was easy to train, once he decided to do it.)
Loves any kind of sport that involves a ball. I often have them flying across the room at my head.
Seriously good at using a lacrosse stick.
Riding a bike
Busy, busy, busy boy
No longer has to do his asthma medication
Stubborn but incredibly sweet
Zachary is...

My little love and sweetest baby ever
Crawling and into EVERYTHING
Teased me into thinking he was mellow and chill. Not since he started moving. He's all over the place
Eating lots of food
Has 1 tooth
Has had one ear infection and cold, but is a very healthy little boy
Small for his age but also really cute, so who cares? With Max as his dad, he's bound not to be too small, right?!?
Goes with the flow like nobody's business and has been my easiest baby yet.
A really, really special spirit. He has brought a lot of joy into our home and my family

I am...

Stressed, but happy. I don't do calm, cool and collected very well. People often tell me I seem easy going. I don't know why they say this. I am not.
Put my kids in the 24 Hour Fitness Kids Club and it has changed me life! Literally. I don't know if it is that I am getting a break during the day or that I am forced to exercise to get this break, but it is awesome.
Still in Young Womens...also 4 years and going strong.
About 10 pounds away from the weight I would like to be at. Seriously, this losing weight thing after a baby gets much harder the older I get. Sheesh
Loving driving a minivan. My dream car is a brand new Sienna, although our old one is just fine too
Planning to run/walk the Bolder Boulder. So excited!
Loving Instagram. Way better than Facebook and Twitter
Totally into the elections, but have banned myself from talking about it to anyone. I did however attend a Mitt rally a few months ago.
Loving all the exciting things going on in my fam right now. Kali is getting married in less than 3 weeks. Jeremy gets home in about 2 months and Jordan and Victoria are having a baby in August.
Life is really good. Here's to more blogging small moments and less big updates.

  2. Bummer for losing pictures... I hope you still had them on your computer. Perhaps someday you'll match up your posts with the pics on your computer and create a little journal... perhaps. :)
    I love my honda odyssey. best car we've owned, except for the honda pilot. That one rocked, too.
    Congrats on the kids club! I remember those days. I went every day when I still had a membership. *sigh* I'm secretly counting down the days until James starts school so I can get back into a work-out routine. :)
    I LOVE Halle's pic. SO cute! And Trey... my boys always looked so cute when they slept. And then they woke up... :) haha!
    Keep going strong. Just a year left, right? Go Max! (and Jayme!)

  3. I love your massive blog posts that summarize months of your family's life. Really hit the milestones in a concise way! Good job. Sounds like the kids are doing great and you and Max are too. Love Max's new car.
