Feeling better.



Both the boys had ear infections this past week. Aiden was on oral antibiotics for a week and then ended up getting a shot. Both have been much happier now that they are feeling better. Ethen is finally sitting up pretty well on his own! He still is kind of the leaning tower, but most of the time he does pretty good. Aiden was so proud of his spider hat he made at school "all by hisself" and wore it around for two days. He can't wait for halloween and has been practicing with his lightsaber.

Snow in October



Well, I was making fun of Ben for putting the ski-racks on the car on Monday, but I guess it wasn't too early. We woke up to snow on Saturday and it continued to snow on and off all day. Aiden couldn't wait to wear his snow boots, get outside, and have a snowball fight with dad. He keeps telling us that Brooklyn will come again after he wakes up and opens presents. So he was a little disappointed that Santa isn't coming soon. But he still wanted to be the first to wish everybody Merry Christmas! I bet the Romriells don't miss shoveling their parking lot!
We used to have trouble getting him to nursery on Sunday, but now he starts asking to go about half-way through Sacrament and doesn't stop until it's time to go. I guess at least he likes it though!
Ben spent all weekend in what he calls the "Portneuf County Jail." He worked 14 hours a day on Saturday and Sunday, with very little to do. This seems to be a normal thing for our hospital. Me and the boys went to the hospital a couple times a day for "visiting hours."

We spent last weekend with the Romriells. Aiden was so happy to see his long lost cousins from "Lath Begath." The kids had playing at the park and terrorizing grandmas house. Saturday was rainy so we took them to the bowling alley for an outing. The kids started getting a little restless at the end so Brooklyn decided to spice things up with a little Aerosmith.

Aiden has been going to tumbling. They are starting to practice summersaults, however, he is a little ahead. He thinks its great to run and flip over without his hands. He also has been visiting the parks with the girls.
Ben got a new job as a Student Rad Tech in the radiology dept. He will be working 7 on and 7 off so he is going to be very busy for the next 8 months. This will be hard, but he is guaranteed a job when he graduates, so that will be nice, since they seem to be scarce in Pocatello.

Summer













Here are some pictures of this summers activities. It included going to Downata Hot Springs, riding bikes in Yellowstone, and of course riding the "Wheeler" with papa.  And here is King Tutt Ethen.







Firsts



Aiden has started preschool and he loves it! They have a letter of the week and they have to bring show-n-tell that corresponds to the letter. This week it was B and surprise, surprise, he brought a Baseball!
Ethen is rolling all over the place and loves to play with his brother. He started eating sweet potatoes today and he's not quite sure about it.
