Today, Wyatt told me that he has only been a kid once. He was being really funny today. Wyatt started soccer class again. He was so excited. He seems a lot more grown up since the last one. Maybe it is the underwear! You could see a big improvement in his soccer skills and he wasn't shy like he was last time.
Jonah is loving Jr. Jazz. I love to watch him play. He is giving it his all. Last week he had an awesome game. His whole team was doing great. They were passing the ball and a lot of the kids made baskets. Jonah played great. This week they played a tough team. The kids were so aggressive. Jonah's team didn't quite know what to do. It is good for him though. I want him to learn how to win gracefully and lose gracefully!
Keith and Jonah have had a lot of fun going to Jazz games this season. I always look to see if I can find some cheap tickets for them. This week they went early to watch the players warm up. Keith loved it, but I guess Jonah got bored. Keith took the camera because we don't have any pictures of them at the game. Jonah was a stinker and didn't want his picture taken. Thurl Bailey was going around taking pictures with people and Keith couldn't get Jonah to take one with him. I guess they had a lot more fun when the game started. It helped that Jonah won some speakers for his mp3 player and someone gave him a free soda.
Last week we talked about modesty at activity days. I stole the whole activity from Emilee so I didn't even have to do much to prepare. It was great and the girls loved it. Yes we only have three girls for all four years!
Caitlyn and Jonah have had a lot of fun with rainbow loom. I found a generic loom really cheap so I put it in our prize basket. We have been trying a new thing where the kids can earn "Loosli bucks" by going the extra mile or improving on something they are working on. Caitlyn has a hard time being happy in the morning so she can earn a buck by being nice in the morning. Jonah is working on telling the truth and obeying so he can earn bucks for those things. Anyway, when they have three bucks they can pick something out of the prize basket. We used the prizes while potty training Wyatt and now he can earn them by not waking me up at night. It is mostly simple stuff that I would give them anyway, but they don't know that! There are a lot of books in there that I got for free from cereal boxes. I put the rainbow loom in there because I think it is a great activity for them. Anyway, Caitlyn had enough bucks so she bought the loom for Jonah. So sweet!
After dinner last night I looked over and found Hallee and Jonah wrapped up in a blanket together. Hallee adores Jonah. He is the only one she will consistently give hugs too and he is so cute with her. Hallee is the only one in the house that Jonah doesn't purposely bug!
Caitlyn wanted to get in there with them. I love moments like these.
Cody passed down a suit for Jonah. He was so excited to wear it today. He sure looked handsome.
Caitlyn told him that all of the girls were going to think he was handsome. Jonah seemed a little disappointed when he came home and told me that none of the girls said anything to him.
Hallee looked adorable for church as usual. I can't believe she is already 18 months old. She is more opinionated by the day. She still doesn't say very much. She has a few words that she uses for everything. She sure tests my patience, but oh man I love this girl.
I got her to sit still for a couple of pictures this morning. I remember Caitlyn wearing this same outfit at this age.
I had to find the picture of Caitlyn to compare. Hallee looks a lot like Caitlyn, but I realized when I looked at this picture that I think Wyatt and Caitlyn look more alike and Jonah and Hallee look similar. Look at that smile, oh I miss little Caitlyn. She has always been so much fun!
Hallee had a few melt downs at church today. It was rough, but we made it through Sacrament Meeting. Wyatt ran into primary all by himself this week which was great! I took Hallee with us to Sunday School because she still has a cold so I didn't send her to nursery. She was a mess. She was screaming non stop. After Keith and I both took her out a few times Keith told me to just take her home and put her to bed. That was all I needed to hear. She was out in a couple of minutes. Poor girl just isn't feeling good.
