HOLY SMOKES!!!! It's been forever that I've updated!! Crazy busy. So, Max is walking, and starting to talk and blow kisses and all kinds of cute stuff! Lauren is potty training. Dallin is a sports fanatic. Abby got baptized. And in between all that...Tony is working like crazy, and I'm running around crazy after everyone. I'm going to try to be better about updating this. :)

We're all doing well. Tony, of course, is working hard at the office and at home. He's got so many projects he doesn't know where to start...poor guy. Debbie's tired but that's to be expected. Trying to keep up with 4 very busy kids would wear anyone out. She's starting to train for a 10k and is hoping to try for a sprint triathlon. We'll see how that goes. Abby's getting geared up for 2nd grade at Forbes Elementry. She can't wait to get back into it and see all her friends. The scary part of back to school for Dallin is done. Kindergarden shots!!! Not fun. But he's really excited to go to a new school and make new friends. He's not even nervous. Lauren is characteristiclly driving her mom crazy. She's learning new words and phrases every day, and has learned that if she laughs while she's being scolded, mom can't keep a straight face. (It just kills me) Max is growing like a weed and is being spoiled rotten buy everyone. Already 2 months old!! It feels like we just had him. Anyway...

GOAL!!!

Max is doing well. He weighs 8 lbs 7 oz. He loves to be held and has started cooing and smiling. He's so cute!!!! He sleeps well. He usually lets me get 4 or 5 hours at a time at night. He's going to Primary Children's Hosp. tomorrow for a communicating hydracele. The best way to explain that one is to tell you to google it. He's chunkin' out well and developing great! You'd never know he was so preemie.

4th of July

We had a quiet 4th with Max being so little, but Grandma and Grandpa Larson came over for dinner and then we watched fire works...well not all of us. Lauren got really sick and had to go to bed. Looking at her in this pic. she looks like she sure didn't feel very good.

Jumpin' around

Grandma and Grandpa Passmore gave us a trampoline for Christmas, and we FINALLY got it all figured out. THANX GUYS!!! Pretty soon we'll have it in the ground, but the kids couldn't wait to try it out. We all love to play on it.

We're Outti

Finally! after 2 hours of sitting around and waiting to get outta Dodge, we could finally load Max up and head for home.

The kids are so happy to have baby Max home. Abby and Dallin love to hold him, and Lauren sure thinks he's funny. She laughs at him every time he makes a noise. She also loves to play with his fingers and find his eyes. Abby is such a great helper with him, and Dallin can't stop kissing him. It's so nice to have our family FINALLY whole and complete. We are so blessed.
