Teething

I don't know where to start with the past week. Abree got two new teeth and has a bad diaper rash and runny nose to prove it. She is great at pulling grapes off the counter by standing on the stepstool. Then she pulled the tablecloth to get Conner's gatorade. She sees something she wants then she goes for it. She discovered the slide and loves to go down it when we drop the boys off at school. She is usually screaming as I am carrying out of the school yard. Conner is reading books now and Cadin is very close behind. I went to the MiaMaid youth conference last week and had a good time with the young women. I played volleyball and danced with them as well. We did a humanitarian project also by coloring the pages for nursery's or something. I just colored and didn't worry about the rest. We were even flagged down by a truck with a couple of rednecks wanting the young womens' phone numbers. I had to wonder if we were in Rigby :). It made me a little homesick. It was a lot of good time spent getting to know them better and there is a Laurel conference this Sat. that one of my counselors is going to with the Laurels. The kids also enjoyed watching a water leak by the sprinkler box get fixed. The conractor had to dig four feet down to get to it and he had about six kids watching him and asking all sorts of questions. Abree wanted to get in there as well and screamed when I wouldn't let her get in the mud. We did a service raffle tonight where we get to pick what service we would like to do out of a list that people previously had written down and I chose to wash someones dog because the kids would love to do that. Although it may backfire and they may ask for a dog. I chose to have someone watch our kids for us to go to the temple. Happy Easter to all and we love everyone.

tI know the teething feeling!!! Tevan is cutting his first 2 and it has been HARD!!! We are still in Grangeville...one more week. I miss talking to you, but for some reason my cell doesn't work all the time. I doesn't let Troy call in, and sometimes I can't call out. Anyway, we have been homebound the whole time because of the snow, but I hope it gets nice soon. Tevan has learned how to crawl since we have been up here, more than just the four crawls he was doing before. He also learned how to stand up. He is trying to say dada and grunts when he wants something. I tell ya, all this in two weeks is overwhelming! Troy is missing us. He calls a lot and wants to chat. My mom finally got her internet up so we can do the webcam. That has been nice. The last two days have been hard because Daeson is now ready to go home. I am too. Three weeks seems like an eternity...especially since we are in the house the whole time. I hope you are all doing well. Happy late Easter!!! Take care!!!
