Happy late Birthday Kaitlyn!

Kaitlyn turned 9 this year! I cant' believe how old she is getting and how fast time flies by!




















We had an enjoyable time playing with her cousin for her birthday party.
We went to the ShowLow pool and played until couldn't play anymore, they were worn out!

Can I have a bandaid? or 2 or 3 or 10!

Spenny had a little scratch on her leg one day and kept bugging me for a bandaid, I kept putting her off because it really wasn't that bad. I guess being the independent person that she is decided to take care of it herself. I died laughing when I saw her!!

Update on Derik

I am sitting here in the hospital with Derik and just wanted to give an update on how he is doing. We were able to start him back on his feeds today at half strength he has been able to keep it down. So tonite we are going to feed him his regular feeding through out the night and hopefully he will be able to keep it down and tolerate it. If he does, we will be able to go home tomorrow. I wanted to thank EVERYBODY for everything that has been done to help out our family the last couple of weeks. It is so wonderful to have such an awesome support system, especially through the people of the church. What an amazing organization!! I was talking to a Dr. last night about all the help we have been given through the church and she was amazed that there are people out there like that, that are willing to help those that are in need and put their own busy schedules to the side to be there for us. Thanks for all the prayers!!

Deriks end of school play

We couldn't ask for a better aid for school. Cherelyn's been awesome! We hope to keep her as Deriks aid as looong as possible.







Derik was in Ms. Connors class, he loved being in there. She let them watch T.V.! haha

Shes gonna kill me!

You gotta love Spenny, I got me an exercise bike and didn't put it in my room right away, we were getting ready to give the kids a bath and I looked out and saw Spenny butt naked riding the bike. It was sooo funny! She had no clue that I was behind her and was taking pictures of her. Shes gonna kill me in about 15 yrs!

Lexi's always good for a laugh!

Lexi, Lexi, Lexi!
What would we do without Lexi giving us something to laugh at? My mom has these 2 exercise balls and the kids love to stick them in their shirts and pretend that they really have boobies. I have to admit, she had a pretty
cute figure with the boobies. Scarey!

Easter at Grandma and Grandpa Halls

The kids enjoyed coloring easter eggs over in Taylor this year. For some reason spenny couldnt figure out that green wasn't the only color that she could color her eggs. She had a whole dozen of green eggs!

Grandpa Hall LOVES his Derik! Any chance he gets to hold him he will. Derik knows that he is loved too.

Ruger wasn't quite old enough to care about coloring eggs yet.

Which was fine by me, that many less eggs to have to cook!
