Long awaited short update :)


We have had a crazy busy month with tons of little things! Here is a short version update of some of the more interesting things with more pics to come soon (*hopefully if I can get my act together*).
April: We had a good Easter! We took Will to an egg hunt and he did okay. Didn't quite get the hang of it, yet, but he enjoyed putting the eggs in and out of the basket when we got home!
We also went to Jordan's brother's house for General Conference, where we get to watch our prophet speak to us on TV instead of going to church! We had a lot of fun seeing the family and spending time together playing games and chatting.
We spent any warm weather day at the park so Will could run around and climb. He is so full of energy!
The end of April and beginning of May, I grew more in love with our little family and in awe of Jordan's patience and compassion. I really think there is no other person more perfect for me in the whole wide world. I also had a minor surgery and the rest of the month was more difficult for me. The more fun things in May included:
Getting a new bike trailer and going on the Eisenbahn Trail. We are looking forward to biking to the farmer's market this summer.
Mother's Day
The Jackson Rummage!! Jordan flew home a day early from TX to go with me. We STOCKED UP! We have clothes for Will probably until he is 5 unless he keeps growing like a weed. We also got a few fun toys for him, including a smaller Big Wheel bike to learn how to pedal, a baseball tee toy, a step stool with "Will" on it!, a train set and table, a little car, and puzzles galore.
Going to California to see my brother Kevin, his wife Mary, my doggie niece Lucy, and my Aunt Diane and Uncle Al. We had a really fun time and Will surprising did well on the airplane thanks to the portable DVD player (thanks Dan Dan!). We spent our time in South Lake Tahoe and a night in Sacramento. It is so beautiful in Tahoe! Also beautiful is my brother's house! He and his wife worked hard to upgrade flooring, counters, etc. It looks like a model home with their beautiful decor too! Thanks for having us Aunt Diane and Kevin!
Now it is June! Things this month will include:
Treating Will's ear ache :(
Will's music and rhythm class every Thursday.
Play dates in the park.
Speech therapy, Occupational therapy and a general teaching therapy a few times a month to help Will communicate and cope with his newly discovered Sensory Processing Disorder.
Our 5 year wedding anniversary and 12 year "being in love" anniversary. It is still hard for me to not count those 7 years premarriage!
Father's Day
My Dad's bone marrow transplant next Friday, June 12. Please keep him in your prayers!
