First Fall

It has been a blizzard nearly all day today. There is snow all over the ground and we are not too excited about that. What do you expect we are in Cache Valley....we'll probably see snow on and off until June. Just a quick post about what has been going on around here then I am off to bed.

Last weekend was Tim's birthday. We went out to dinner the night before at Cafe Rio. Then on his birthday we had my family over went for a bike ride and made B-B-que Chicken Crepes...one of my favorite meals. Tim thought it sounded disgusting at first but he loves it too!
He is really twenty four- but we though we would represent his maturity level with candles ;)

Ian enjoying the park after our bike ride.

Ian loves his baths...lots. He just recently discovered that it is fun the pour the water out of the bathtub and onto the floor with his cups.
He also loves brushing his teeth. His four teeth that is. His two bottom teeth and he just got his top two teeth last weekend (March 21st). Now his top right eye tooth looks like it is about to come in too.

Everyday Ian is getting a little better at walking and more daring. Today we had our first tumble and fell down 4 stairs. Tim was in our bedroom and I was in Ian's room putting away his laundry. I told Tim I would be in Ian's room and Tim thought that I took Ian with me -then we heard a thud. Poor little guy he was just laying there looking around, then when I went into a panic he cried for a minute. He is doing great though just a few little bumps. Luckily we have a check-up with the doctor tomorrow anyway so I am just going to make sure he is double checks everything and anything.
Hope all is well with everyone else. We are enjoying life here and counting down until Spring Break (next week) and Summer begin!

it's amazing what falls kids will survive. when gracie was one, we were renting a townhouse that had a tile entry. i was across the living room (with jake) when she decided to scale the gate we had at the bottom of the stairs. i jumped up to go to her, but she fell face first onto the tile before i could reach her. i think that was the worst (so far) of all my kids, but they've all had scary falls. (oh, and grace even did a drop and turn once when i was trying to put her coat on at my friend's house. she ended up with a dislocated elbow. i felt pretty awful about that one.

Happy Late birthday to TIM! Sounds like a fun celebtration. I'm going to have to get a recipe for those bbq crepes! That's fun Ian is getting better at walking. I hope you have a great Spring Break. That'll be so nice to have a week off.

You definitely need to post the recipe for those BBQ chicken crepes, they sounds so yummy! I still remember when my little guy had his first tumble down the stairs...i freaked out! Now him getting hurt is just an everyday occurance it seems like. Little boys are crazy, but so much fun!

Oooh, I think I need your recipe for chicken crepes. It sounds good in an interesting sort of way. I am glad Ian's fall consisted of only 4 stairs and was at your house instead of mine. He is definitely in that bumps and bruises stage. Hopefully that will be his only bad experience on the stairs. He has been all over the place today here and at the library. It shouldn't be too long until he is running around everywhere. Just in time for good weather hopefully!

Livie has taken her fair share of spills too! It is amazing that they can recover so quickly! Let me know when you and Tim are free so we can get together!

Hey, that kid is getting huge! Tell him he shouldn't feel too bad though, I still fall down the stairs all the time!
