Poor Connor Boy!!!

Today has been a whirlwind of a day. I received a call from the school saying that Connor has been hit in the mouth by a baseball bat and I need to come down. Myra and the secretary was in the nurses office taking care of him until I arrived. His mouth as bleeding pretty bad and his bottom teeth were pretty much just hanging there. I met Joe at the dentist office and he took him to see Dr. Christensen. The doctor took and x-ray of his mouth...none of the teeth were broken, just 7 of them were knocked loose. He was able to put the teeth back in place without any sedative or shots....which is great for Connor! Connor has a hard time when you even mention the word "doctor". We have to keep gauze in his mouth to keep the teeth pushed forward and then we will see the doc tomorrow at 4:30. Connor can't eat any hard foods for a week and just stuck to a strict liquid diet. Myra brought over some balloons and a big envelope of cards Connor's class made for him. That was so sweet. We hope Connor will recover soon and rest today and all day tomorrow. Feel better soon Connor! Love Mom

Grandma Romberger's 80th birthday

Grandma Romberger turned 80 years old. Her kids surprised her with a party at the Old Rock Church in Cedar City. It was great to see all my cousins and was like a family reunion. We had pictures taken and one of just our family. Wow we are getting big! They served homeade bread and jam and grandma cut a small cake. It was a very special occasion and glad we were able to attend. Happy Birthday Grandma!!!!

NO MORE BOTTLES!!!

NO more BOTTLES!!! Yeah!!! I have been a slacker trying to wing Tanner completely off the bottle. I usually have my kids off the bottle way before they turn 2, but with Tanner being my last, it's been different. He keeps asking for his "baba" but we just give him his sippie cup and he's fine. He has been off since last Friday night and it feels so good....one more milestone down...one more to go(diapers)! He is really doing well potty training and hopefully by summer he will be in "big boy pants" full time. I really can't believe his is 2 1/2. My baby is growing up so FAST! We LOVE you Tanner.

SOCCER...SOCCER...SOCCER!!!

Well, soccer season has begun! Every Saturday until the middle of May, the family will be on the soccer fields cheering the boys on. Kyler, Connor, and Hunter signed up for city league and just love it. Hunter's game was at 9:00 in the morning. After the whistle was blown...Hunter drove the ball to the goal and scored a GOAL! He was so proud. He did a great job scoring two more on the goalie! One of the other good players on the team scored one as well and the team WON the game 4-2! Connor's game was at 10:00 and he did a great job as well. He had a few shots at the goal and just missed. Connor is doing really well playing and getting more involved. He has come a long way...considering two years ago, he sat in the middle of the field just picking the grass! His team WON the game 2-1! We had a little break between games and Ky's wasn't until 3:00. His team has struggled with just getting the concept of kicking the ball a long distance. When we arrived to his game, Joe and I thought his team would get stomped because of the boys height. Kyler's team played very well and played as a team! They WON the game 6-1 We are so proud of the boys and had a winning day of soccer! Way to go boys!

Life without training wheels!

On a beautiful Spring afternoon the family was all outside playing, riding bikes, or planting our garden and I had this bright idea for Carter's dad to do! I wanted him to take Carter's training wheels off his bike and see how well he did...so Joe did just that. Carter hopped on that bike like nothing flat and took off on his bike with a few whopples. He did so good and mom and dad were so proud of him. I ran to get the cameras for some candid camera shots!

Happy St. Patricks Day

Well our family loves this holiday to come around! We get to celebrate two things on this day...St Patricks Day and a birthday to a wonderful husband and daddy! Even though Joe thinks birthdays are just another day...we still like to make it special for him. I really didn't know what fun things to do for him...so it started this morning with his birthday announced on KONY. Then me and the three little ones went to the Dollar Store and bought some of his favorite things...jerky, pork rinds, mountain dew, and a few balloons. We took it down to his work and Carter and Maycie walked in yelling, "Happy Birthday Dad!" When Joe came home from work, we thought about going out to dinner just the two of us, but then decided that we would just go get some pizza. The pepperoni pizza would be his birthday cake....pretty boring huh? I hope it was a very fun day! Love you babe

spring break

The kids are out of school for spring break! They don't have to go back until Tuesday. It's been really quite crappy...cuz of all the RAIN! We talked the kids into not going to Idaho and just doing some fun things here. Joe took two days off work anyways and had planned some fun until the rain got in the way!

On Saturday, Joe and Hunter went to the see New Moon at the Flood Street Theater while the rest of us went to McDonald's and played in the playplace. The kids had a blast. Monday morning we took the kids to Burger King to have breakfast...boy I love the $1 menu! We just vegged the rest of the day. We found some fun movies to rent from the Redbox and had a day watching movies on a RAINY Tuesday afternoon. Hopefully we will be able to play to the park on Thursday if MR. SUN will come out long enough!
