The Happenings.

Hailey, Jack, Dougie, Melissa, JJ (Hailey's Boyfriend), Me & Bryce (Robert was sleeping.)
We have been so so busy and it's only going to get worse. My family was here the last weekend in April for my little brother Dougie's College Graduation. He's not quite done (he has one class he's finishing right now) but he got to walk. All of us kids and our spouses/boyfriends are in this picture. Bryce and I went on a overnigher the night before his graduation and stayed in Park City (no pictures). It was so nice getting away.

Robert and I are just getting healthy. We've been sick for about 10 days now. He ended up with a DOUBLE ear infection and cough and I've had a sinus infection/asthma issues. It hasn't been fun. Glad we're healthy because we're headed to Pine Valley, UT (near St. George) aka Heaven on Earth this weekend to spend the long weekend with my family and Grandma Broadbent.

Robert is growing. He's in 12 month clothes. If they're one piece outfits they can't be pants or they're too short. He's over 22 lbs now. He was sick and just under, so now that he's eating again, I know he's over 22. He's so heavy. He's ARMY crawling everywhere or rolling. He LOVES his Doggies and they love him. When he wakes up and I get him out of bed, he immediately looks down for them and if he's not home the Dogs sit by his door, hoping that he's just napping or something. It's really sweet. He can't get to the sitting position on his own but can sit for as long as a min or two if you set him in the sitting position. He'd much rather stand or JUMP. I think he'll be walking as soon as his core is strong enough and he figures it out.

He has TWO best friends. He LOVES his cousin Max and then our next door neighbors have a little boy who is almost 15 months. Jace and Robert are so so cute together. Yesterday they got SOOOOOO excited when they saw each other, I love it.

I'm started a "Card Club". We meet once a month and makes cards. I get to buy LOTS of stampin supplies with the money they pay for the cards. It's nice! I'm so excited to have a way to fund my hobby. I can't wait until the Stampin Up! convention in July! It's going to be a blast. I just got a sneak peek at the new catalog and I'm SOOOOOOOOOO in love!

Bryce is almost done with his EMT basic class. We're trying to figure out the best course from here. He's made some calls and no one in valley does volunteer or part time work for EMT Basic, so he has to call Grantsville and Tooele to see if they will, if not it looks like he'll be going to Wendover every week to volunteer. They pay you if you're on a call. That would be a good experience because they do search & rescue, forest fires (brush/desert) and more. So they train you for all those cases so he could gain some good knowledge. He will start his EMT Intermediate when he feels he's good at the basic. He's taking this REALLY serious and doesn't want to forget anything and he wants to gain experience in all aspects of it. He dreams of the day where he can just be a firefighter but has been loving the process.

I will update more soon! Sorry, it's been so long!

I can't believe how big Robert must be! I'm so sad that I haven't seen him! Maci and him wear the same size! Sounds like you're so busy, but having so much fun. I didn't know that Bryce wanted to be a fire fighter-that's awesome!

Congrats Dougie! Thanks for the update. I can't believe Robert is 22 pounds...that is awesome. Your biceps are probably getting so strong.
