May

So my goal for this year is to do at least one post a month. However, I have quickly fallen behind. So I guess I will modify my goal a little to say I will write one post about each month all year (Starting now!!)

The month of may had some fun stuff going on for us.

1. Kestley's Crib got recalled so we got to take it back and get her a new one. (which took two weeks to get here) So she had no bed for a while. Good thing she still liked to sleep on Jeff's chest!

2. Because her crib got recalled, Wal-mart gave us a gift card which was $100 more than we paid for the 1st one so we used the extra money to buy the kids a little kitchen. Which they love greatly.3. Trey had his first primary activity at church. It was so fun to see him so excited. It was a mothers day activity so they got to spend time with their mothers and do a bunch of activities together.4. I got a new camera for mothers day/my anniversary/my birthday/ which I am very excited about. It has been so much fun to play around with and try to figure out how it works.
5. Kestley turned 1, which I still can't believe. This year went by way too fast. She finally broke through with another tooth so now she has three. She love to walk around the house but can't do it on her own yet. She loves music and loves to sing with her brother or dance. She spends a lot of time observing everyone and everything and doesn't seem to miss anything. She is doing very well with her signing and her words. And she makes us laugh numerous times a day.
6. I am almost done with my thesis. I have 18 errors to fix and I have to do my oral presentation. So I am hoping that by the time I post my June post I will finally be finished with my Masters.

7. Kestley is sleeping in her bed consistently now. The new task at hand is to get her to sleep past 5:30 am!

8. Our garden is doing well. We have alot of things growing (just don't ask me what since I didn't label them.) I like to keep things exciting!
9. We have had so much rain this year. The sunny days have been few and far between but as soon as we get one we spend most of the day playing outside. Both Trey and Kestley would stay outside all day everyday if I would let them.
10. We finally had a break through on the potty training. Trey just woke up one morning and decided he was going to tell us when he needed to go and he has stayed dry through the night and day with a few accidents here and there. It happened just in time because I was about to give up and let him wear diapers forever. I just hope Kestley figures it out quicker.
11. We spent Memorial Day Weekend ( Saturday) moving Jeff's sister Stephanie here. We are so excited for her to be here and for Trey and Kestley to be able to grow up and see their cousins frequently.

Overall, we had a pretty good month. Jeff is back to working out and losing weight. He has lost 20 lbs so far. We are very excited for him. I am enjoying my last month off before summer soccer starts. Other than that life has been good.
