Look at our BIG 1st grader. We still can't believe that he is old enough to be in school let alone in 1st grade. This was taken right before I walked him in the school. He was so excited that he woke up 3 times. He said to me, "we need to get up and get ready or we're going to be late, mom!" I kept telling him that we were not going to be late and that when it was time the alarm clock will go off. He said that he likes his teacher and that it was fun seeing all his friends again. He's so cute and we love our first baby so much. Good job, Trenton!

Tatum is growing up
No picture for this, yet, but I wanted to announce to the WORLD that I have not changed a diaper in over 2 weeks! Tatum is, we think, pretty much pottie trained! It's been over 6 years since I have been diaper free. There were times I was changing 2 sets at the same time! So 2 weeks ago Monday Chris and I said if we are going to do this, it's got to start now before the summer is over. With the boys, Trenton took about a week before I felt like I could go somewhere and know that he could really tell me that he needed to go and we'd make it there without an accident, Tucker at least 2. Tatum was doing great at 2 DAYS! She was also 8 months younger than when i started the boys. In this case, the girl did it faster than a boy. You hear that a lot and sometimes it's true. She is a passie free girl too! We had been letting her have one at night and at nap time, but finally IT'S gone. I really didn't like her having it. So I love it. She is out of her crib and into a regular bed. So there has been some major changes for her and she has done very good with all of it! Our baby girl is starting to turn into a little girl! We are so proud of her!!!!
4th of JULY & The Boot Race
Tucker and Jalie ready for the Boot Race! Well, Jalie maybe not, but they look like they are having fun. Trenton and Hunter behind waiting for their turn. They all run in age groups so it's a little more fair. Last year Tuck's won in the 3 and under age group. This year neither he nor Jalie placed, but they both did a great job trying!
Kids, Kids, and more Kids!

Chris just returned from taking Trenton on his first overnight backpacking trip with Chris's Dad and brother. Chris was a little worried about taking Trenton because it was a steep trail about 2.5 miles to camp but Chris said Trenton did great and was able to do the whole thing by himself. Trenton had a lot of fun and Chris was able to teach Trenton some valuable skills like packing a bag, building a fire, and enjoying the opportunity to pee off of high places! gross.
Swing Set Box DONE! Next....

Well I'll tell you we have been very busy here in our household! Since moving into our home in late November, we have had a lot of changes. Chris and I got callings right away in our new ward team teaching CTR4/5, AWESOME! Then only after 1 month the bishopric called us in. we were to speak that day so we thought nothing of the meeting. Well some big changes were to happen and we were very unaware. I was called to be the Primary President! The first thing out of my mouth was, "Your serious"!!!! I couldn't believe it. We had only been in the ward for 2 months. We still were trying to connect faces and names. How was I to even know who to even think about for counselors? The Lord was there though to help! A lot of praying and it just came. My testimony was strengthened. Well Chris stayed teaching for another month and now he is the 2ND counselor in the Young Men's. So in that way we have had a lot of new things to do. We are enjoying it though.
So we had 3 birthdays in March, Tatum, mom, and Tucker. Trenton started T-Ball, Chris is enjoying work, we are loving our house, Tatum is learning to ride her bike (with training wheels still, Chris says when she turned 3 she won't have them anymore) and school is almost over for the kindergarten kid!There is NO baby news for us though. Congrats to all those who are expecting! We are still very content with our 3!!!! Well that's about it I suppose. Until next time:)

Tatum's new little looks
Christams
I figured that it is better late than never to finally document Christmas to you all. Our Christmas morning started off like this....... Big Paper!
Well here was the kids first look at Christmas morning. It's been the tradition to "barricade" the kids from the tree. Chris had this tradition growing up.
