Some Serious Catch up!!!

So, I realized that it has been 2 months since I last posted anything, and yet so much has been going on. I will try to capture the things that have kept us so busy.....
The first thing was Andrews graduation, and that was such a big deal that it got it's own post just below....The next week after that, we moved...again!!! Really nothing big, it was just across the street, but anytime a move takes place there is a lot of work and so much has to be done to ever feel settled again. We love the new place and have really enjoyed planting our garden and doing A LOT of yard work so that things look nice. The yard has taken some hard work, but Andrew and I both secretly love it :). I will post pictures when we are all finished.

Dylan is now 6 months old...I can't believe it. Where has the time gone? Her 6 month check up went well. She is 27 1/2 inches long, but only weighs 13 lbs, 12 ounces. Just really skinny, so our pediatrician wants to see her weight in 6 weeks to make sure that she is ok. She is loving solid food, sleeping through the night and even sleeping in since the move, and loves to be held!!! Ammon and Abigail are such good siblings and help whenever I need them too.

Then this last week was Ammons preschool graduation. He looked so handsome in his white shirt and tie. When he walked in, he was standing by his chair and so proudly said, "My daddy is here." He looked like such a big boy. They put on a little program for us and then went back to there classroom and got there diplomas and had cookies. We got a graduation book that had some really fun things that they had done. We are so proud of how well he did this year, and absolutely loved the teacher that he had.





It was really hard to get good pictures of him because we had to stand in the back!

Andrews' Graduation

May 1 was a day that has been much anticipated by our little family. It was Andrews graduation day. It was such a nice day and we were able to have both my parents attend as well as his. Even his dad who had just gotten out of the hospital came to see it, and that meant a lot to both of us. Also, many thanks to my sister Jan for watching the kids so I could actually sit through the ceremony.









I am so proud of Andrew for working so hard to achieve this goal. There were countless hours spent in the library and testing centers, and many hours that I know he wishes he could have been doing other things, but having an education sure has been a blessing to our family. We love you Andrew!!!
