Where does the time go?





























I just can't believe it is May already. And when did my children get so big. I feel like I have blinked and now Shelby is crawling and Aiden is talking up a storm. Here is just a little update on the family and what we have been up to.


Shelby has two teeth and has been crawling for a few weeks. She hates being on her knees and I wouldn't be surprised if she is walking in a month. She can stand without any support for a while until she gets a little too excited. She is a funny little girl and loves attention. She will squeal and sing to anyone who looks at her. She loves her big brother and screams the entire time she is awake while he is napping. She was definitely meant to be the younger sibling. She takes Aidens abuse with smiles and giggles.


Aiden is getting to be such a big boy. He loves to play hoops and run around outside, but his favorite thing to do is "feed tows"(cows) in the "big trutch" (truck) with his dad. It has become the sunday tradition. Aiden is starting to catch on. While he use to scream as I talked about going to church, now he associates feeding cows with church and I am sure that is all he talks about in Nursery.


As for Tyler, I have kept him pretty busy. I had been making plans all winter for my yard. I guess I failed to mention this to Tyler. One day I told him everyone was coming to rip apart our yard and put in new sprinklers. I don't know how excited he has been about the project, but it is coming along. A big thanks to Roger for helping...I mean doing...the sprinklers. And for the past few months Tyler has been faithfully pulling up sod where I want flower beds, hooking up the water, tilling up the garden and about a million other things.


My time is filled is yard work, primary and two kids. I wouldn't have it any other way. Life is good and I can't complain.
