Mother's Day Tea at Pre-school!!
I felt so SPECIAL!! Thank you Seth and Clyde! (for those of you without the Mommy know how...Clyde is in the Gardiner T-shirt, Seth the transformer!)


When we went to pick up Jackson from the Tueller's house..this is what we found...sound asleep. The only thing that kept him from going all the way under was the food storage under the bed! I had to wake him for his Dr's appointment right then and found that he had burst his other ear drum...poor baby!


The hard part of the trip was #1 a sick baby. Jackson had been throwing up for 3 days before we left. My thinking in taking him was, "How long can it last? He'll feel better soon." Well, he didn't... I finally called my Aunt (a pediatric nurse practitioner for the last 50 years) and listed his symptoms, 6 days of him keeping nothing down at all, falling over, chapped bleeding lips, red chapped cheeks, no pee pee diapers in a 24 hour period...to which she replied, "Take him to the ER now and get him hydrated!"...so we DID!


Thank Heaven for Modern Medicine!

Utah...again

We went on a "quick trip" to Utah to our cousin Eric's farewell. Coming from the triple digits in AZ we were in NO WAY prepared for Utah Spring! We had to purchase Jackets (2 sizes too big so we could use them again next year)...

...and shoes (we needed those for soccer anyway) the sandals were NOT cutting the mustard! The highlights of the trip were... #1, of course, the farewell where Eric spoke wonderfully and Alexa sang a beautiful song, #2 the night before the farewell when we went to their stake production of Beauty and the Beast where James was main stage crew and Jan conducted the orchestra pit, #3 running an playing with our cousins, #4 flying papre airplanes #5 going on long walks as a family outside #6 the Tulips in everyone's yards and #7 playing games and building things at Grandma's (then taking pictures to show her because she was ill in bed.)
