Something on me always hurts, but usually it's my feelings!

Hallee is constantly telling us that something hurts, her head, her stomach, her knee, her finger.  I told her that she is always hurt and Wyatt spoke up and said, "Something on me always hurts, but it's usually my feelings."  We all started laughing.  He is sensitive, that's for sure.
Wyatt wanted to climb up here while we were on the parkway and he was already a little freaked out, but when I noticed something hanging from the ceiling behind him I really freaked him out and we got him down immediately. 
Keith came home for lunch one day.  Hallee wanted Keith to come to the skate park to see her go down the hills before he went back to work. 
We have started riding our scooters from the skate park over to the Provo river trail.  We ride over this bridge.
After that we go down a hill and under Geneva road.  Hallee loves going down the hill.
It has added some variety to our skate park days.
I have been using Jonah's friends scooter that he left at our house.  I have had so much fun that I decided to buy my own scooter.  Wyatt and Hallee love that I ride with them.
Wyatt enjoyed having a zoom call with his class this week.  I think he was happy to see his teacher and all of his friends.  He had a piece of tape over the camera.  He said, "remember Kyle said that people can see you through your computer, I put tape on there so they can't." 
Hallee has had a few zoom calls with her class and she loves them.  It is so funny to hear what the kids say to each other and what they want to show each other.  She showed Jackson to her class.  Her teacher is so good at listening to all of them and telling them she misses them.
Caitlyn has been struggling this week, she is missing her cousins so much.  We went over to the church parking lot to drive to try and lift her spirits.
We have been driving every day and she has improved so much.  She has started driving around the neighborhood and over by the High School.  She is excited to get her permit soon!
I don't sleep well at night. I usually wake up for a few hours every night.  I have been sleeping in since we don't have to be up.  Hallee is an early riser so usually she just watches shows until I get up, but this week she started logging on and doing her school work.  She was so proud of herself.  She is so cute, she gets up and opens the blinds, and lets Jackson out.  I love seeing her be so responsible.
Jackson is Caitlyn's bright spot.  I love how his ears are standing straight up.
I haven't put on makeup or done my hair for a while.  I got ready yesterday and then got a little depressed because I had nowhere to go.  I decided to go to grab some lunch with Keith.  It felt great to get out and do something normal.
Yesterday Caitlyn was leading our scripture reading.  Wyatt and Jonah could not stop laughing so I had to separate them.  I told Wyatt to sit behind the couch so they couldn't see each other.  He climbed in this box and then put his fingers outside the little hole and ended up ripping it so we could see his face.  We all couldn't help but laugh and at that point scripture reading was over.  At least we laughed together.
Wyatt has been watching you tube videos where they run over stuff. I have been ordering a lot of stuff online (I have this bad habit of shopping in the middle of the night when I can't sleep) I like to think of it as me doing my part to keep the economy going.  Wyatt wanted to take the air pillows from all of our packages and run over them.  We went over to the church parking lot to let Caitlyn drive over them. 
It was windy so it made it hard.  At one point I told Caitlyn to go and it blew away and Wyatt went to get it, thank goodness no one got hurt. Wyatt was very happy with the loud popping noises, he said they were very satisfying.
Today I went grocery shopping so I picked up the stuff to make French toast with whipped cream and strawberries, Jonah's favorite.  Last night Jonah looked for a picture of himself on my phone and had a hard time finding one.  I told him that is because he never lets me take his picture.
He let me take his picture today and he was very happy with his food!

I loved this blog and laughed through it which was really good so thank you! Hallee is amazingly responsible- please tell her Grandma is really impressed! Where was Wyatt in that first picture? I loved him wanting to drive over the packing stuff and getting a thrill out of it! Caitlyn looks like a natural driving and yesterday she was talking about how she's been driving a lot. What fun for her! Cute picture of you and Keith going out to lunch and I'm so glad you got to do something normal- we need that right now! At least you were having scripture reading and it's okay if the laughing takes over! Good job doing it!

Wyatt’s quote at the beginning is so funny. I love the picture of you and Keith. I’m glad you guys are finding fun things to do and laughing together.
