An overdue post

So much has happened since i last posted.  I wanted to do a bunch of small blogs with the Kj's Christmas and then ours with topher.  But my computer went kaput and doesn't like me.  Sadly it has ALL of my pictures and new craft idea's on it :(.  Alas this is life.  So i'm "borrowing" my mom's.  But i do have some fun pictures.

Kali Jo started second grade can you believe it???? I CAN"T wasn't she just born at 32 weeks and in nicu? And i thought that was the hardest time of my life (or one of lol).  Now she's a reading attitude going little almost 8 year old!  September 27th she will be 8 years old.  In October she'll be baptized.  Wow where has time gone?  I think of her daily wishing i could do her hair for school (and let it grow!)  watch her ride her bike.  Just the little things.

Kaleb turns 6 in December!  he started kindergarten!!!!  I can't believe my baby's in school!  Wasn't he just an infant in my arms also?  With little Kali handing me diapers?  Walking the halls at night with his Colic as josh worked late.  I remember it all so clear but it seems like yesterday and a lifetime ago.  One in a dream. He's loving school but is sad he can't ride the bus home.

Then there's topher boy.  He's turned into a typical two year old terror!  He thinks spitting doing "raspberry's" at everyone is funny.  Well at mommy, daddy and grandma.  He also has a fascination with getting into everything!  We had to actually baby proof the house when he is two!  He talks as good as a 4 year old when he wants to.  He repeats EVERYTHING you say. (some u don't want him to haha).  But oh the potty training!  I've potty trained many nieces nephues and my own kids.  But this one has me stumped!  I"m ready to buy a book!  But that costs money lol so wont be happening.  he poops in there good when daddy has him do it.  But i can barely get him to sit there and pee!  He ASKS for his diaper and cries when we put underwear on him!!!!   He's finally grown out of his 18-24 month clothes.  Meaning he needs 2t and 3t.  That's the scary part! we don't' have much.  A few friends have gives us stuff but it's mostly 4t 5t.  So anyone out there reading this have any donated clothes they wanna pass down we are appreciative!

Bryan is still job hunting this fills like a never ending process.  My craft stuff isn't' selling as well as i'd like either.  wondering what i can do to have it sell well.  Besides having a bigger inventory for holiday's but that'll wait for awhile.  I have so many ideas but they cost money darn it!   My money tree just hasn't been growing well these days haha!

Bryan and i are doing great!  We love it up here in West jordan!  The neighbors are great the complex is perfect!  The ward is absolutely amazing!  With bryan and i's health issues it's been great to have there help.  Topher LOVES nursery!  He told me that he has to see his "buddy" he's always dancing out the door as we are getting ready.  To find out his "buddy' is the old grandpa in there!  I asked him why don't you play with the other kids?  HE said "Uh mom they just don't remember and it's boring being with babies."  HAHA
He's also been asking allot about wanting a baby brother or sister like Aiden lol THANKS JESSIKA!  And to top that one off Kali and Kaleb are asking now also.  There step mom is having twins and Kali's convinced i need to give her a baby sister now. Oh brother.  It wasn't for lack of trying for a year.  BUT with daddy no job they don't get why i'm "waiting"  kids will be kids lol.

OH i did forget to tell your our interesting bed story.  SO out of the BLUE topher started SCREAMING when we put him in his crib awake or asleep he'd sob hysterically.  Then he'd try to jump out head first.  So after watching him twice "climb" out we decided it was time to take it down.  We even tried putting it into a toddler day bed NOPE still screaming and pounding on the door!  So after many sleepless nights and him ending up in our bed (With a non to happy daddy)  We tried the bed on the floor same thing.  SO the next day i went out and was able to find a bunk bed set and a bed for a steal!  So for the first few nights he cried wanting back i bed with us.  Then he'd sleep 1/2 way thru the night then cry and come back in bed with us.  Well about a month and a half ago we decided enough's enough!  So Bryan started a new bedtime routine which consists of them reading scriptures together while he lays in bed.  Then bryan leaves when he's close to asleep or is.  And he sleeps without crying to get out.  BUT every morning we find him with his pillow and sheet against the door! i mean what the heck!  What child sleeps in front of his door.  I Must tell you that when someone locks him out he likes to lay down and look under the door.  YES my child is a peeping tom LOL.  well that's all for now.  Some big changes may be on the way so keep a look out :)
