<div style="text-align: center;">
We got some wonderful family pictures taken. I love how they turned out and I cant wait to do some more this year. It had been way too long. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So we have been taking Owen to a tutor in SLC for the last 2 months. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He was having trouble in class: not focusing/not staying on task/getting frustrated/falling behind</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We talked to the teachers and decided we were <u>not</u> going to do medication but we needed to do something or his school work and future school work was going to go downhill fast!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We checked out a lot of programs and finally found one we are so grateful that we found her when we did. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its called Brainlinking this is the website http://www.brainlinking.com/</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It has completely changed our lives and Owens for the better!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is a 4 month program we meet with Miss Pat once a week and do the exercises and programs at home the rest of the week. He does physical therapy type exercises along with a reading program and a brainbuilding program on line that help with focus,memory,brain speed</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was not cheap but we were willing to put out a little money to have him get these skills now rather than back peddle when he is in high school.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We have seen such a difference in his attitude, self esteem, and his grades have gone up drastically. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When we started 2 months ago he was reading speed level on a beginning 1st grader with a comprehension level of a 4th grader...crazy right? But now he is almost to a 3rd grade reading level!!!! Amazing!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank goodness for other options and wonderful people who care about getting children to where they need to be so they can be successful in life!</div>

The machine was not very reliable at a steady pitch so there was a lot of swinging but not much hitting unless the coach pitched it to the boys himself.</div>

We put in a basketball hoop for Owen to practice more and have more family fun moments. The hardest part was digging out the rocks! We had seriously 3 feet of straight rocks it sucked but we did it and owen got to put his hand in the cement! Its cool to watch all the neighborhood kids come and measure their hand against Owen's :)</div>

I went to pick him up from school a few minutes early so we wouldn't be late. Good thing I did because he was in Gym class and bumped into another kid. Yep his teeth were the ones he hurt...nothing major thank goodness I was just grateful it happened on a day we were already going to the dentist.</div><div style="text-align: center;">The dentist is not Owens favorite place, he is usually OK until they ask him to get in the chair then it goes downhill but today....</div><div style="text-align: center;">We got there just on time and the girl decided they would take him back, do the xrays and then bring him to another chair a few minutes later to do the cleaning. I was just about to go back with him but he didn't even look back at me so i stepped back and he went on his own!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Its a really small office so I could hear everything and he did really well with the xrays but then<br />
the Dentist was free and just came in and did his exam<br />
still didn't ask for me.....</div><div style="text-align: center;">He came back out with a big grin on his face and said" I did it all by myself mom!"</div><div style="text-align: center;">I was so proud of him and gave him a giant hug, they came to get him for the cleaning and I was sure after all that he would say "come on mom "but no.....<br />
Owen got in the chair did all the cleaning and even did the 1 minute fluoride treatment like a rockstar!!</div><div style="text-align: center;">I was tearing up and so proud of our little man!!</div><div style="text-align: center;">No cavities for him and some extra allowance makes for a good end to a Monday :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Owen was stoked to find a electric drum set down there!

We are gonna have to get this kid a mouth gaurd to wear everyday of his life. He looks really somber here i had given him some Ibuprofen before we left for the instacare, and after crying pretty hard and being worried about what the doctor would do Im pretty sure he was zoned out by this picture. :( See the two little marks on his chin that's where the teeth came out....</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXcKHv2HaS2-7y91USI7KprlFlDJ0EJdpyIjozKgh92ecvKNJIQ205t0GKYRow_0QnqeMf722P0jwAdpcv-FJksvkeQ946oRtDkU2LJINtwaYZFF2vWyhyphenhyphenlTLyl-LSgW6eW5B1CHUADFo/s1600/2011-12-31+16.18.47.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXcKHv2HaS2-7y91USI7KprlFlDJ0EJdpyIjozKgh92ecvKNJIQ205t0GKYRow_0QnqeMf722P0jwAdpcv-FJksvkeQ946oRtDkU2LJINtwaYZFF2vWyhyphenhyphenlTLyl-LSgW6eW5B1CHUADFo/s320/2011-12-31+16.18.47.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> This is what the inside looked like and why we thought it might need a stitch or two.

</div><div style="text-align: center;">We got a new member of the family!</div><div style="text-align: center;">* Dexter *</div><div style="text-align: center;">He is a puggle: 3parts pug 1 part beagle & 9 weeks old now</div><div style="text-align: center;">Owen calls him his brother and loves him a little too much sometimes</div><div style="text-align: center;">Owen graduated from Kindergarten (snif snif)</div><div style="text-align: center;">I started crying the minute he marched in with his class and didnt stop through the whole thing</div><div style="text-align: center;">We are so proud of him and all the things he learned over the year with his wonderful teacher</div><div style="text-align: center;">He sat up on the stage so proud and when they called his name I looked at Jeremy and he had tears too</div><div style="text-align: center;">We are SO excited for summer!</div><div style="text-align: center;">We are looking forward to: swimming, museums, zoo, slip and slides and sleeping in, bike rides and bbq's</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Since we bought this house we have had a area in our backyard that was just sand. It has been the worst thing ever in our home. The previous owners had a pool there so it was mostly covered by that for them but when they moved they took it with them. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Since then it has been the neighborhood cat litter box....Yuck Yuck Yuck</div><div style="text-align: center;">My dad is a cement mason and we have wanted him to pour cement back there for a while but we kept going back and forth about grass or cement</div><div style="text-align: center;">So we finally buckled down and got it cleared out and ready for cement</div><div style="text-align: center;">We had a lot of help and my dad did a great job as always!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Soooooo lucky to have a dad with such great talent and skills to make something we can cherish forever</div><div style="text-align: center;">The sad thing is we wanted Owen to put his hand in it but the day we poured he had a horrible fever and pretty much slept the day away. I woke him up to watch for about an hour and take some more medicine but he was still feeling yucky and wanted nothing to do with putting his hand in there :(</div><div style="text-align: center;">My dad did put a cool stencil in it with some leaves from a tree in our backyard </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">We have been to two rodeos this summer already</div><div style="text-align: center;">The second one we went to had a sweet military chopper and Owen has in heaven</div><div style="text-align: center;">He got to watch them take off and then they flew over us during the national anthem VERY COOL!!</div><div style="text-align: center;">They also had a eagle that was injured and nursed back to health we all got to witness him fly off back to freedom, Owen thought that was awesome too and cant stop talking about it</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">We had a fun bbq with some friends and family this weekend</div><div style="text-align: center;">It was nice to have the extra space of our new cement patio and see good friends again</div><div style="text-align: center;">the weather has been nice finally and we are loving the sunshine</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Jeremy found out one of the trainers at his work had a bunch of costumes and dressed up for things like this so we got him to come and I think it was a big success! The only problem we have now is that we have to do something even better next year! I didnt quite know how I was going to do his cake but it turned out really great I think! He loved the little spider crawling up the candle too!<br />

I took one of his coloring books and enlarged the bad guys. They turned out pretty cool and the kids said it was the best game of the night.<br />

Jeremy talked to all the kids and told them that Spider-man was Owens favorite good guy and that maybe just maybe if we said MY SPIDEY SENSES ARE TINGLING 3 times he would come for his birthday. The kids yelled it and he jumped into our backyard! I think all the kids were not really sure what was going on at first then they all thought it was so cool! Jeremy said does anyone want to come give him 5 but everyone ran over and gave him hugs! It was super cute!<br />

He must have caught like 15 fish that way. It was really hot that day and he got his first sunburn on his legs. Thankfully though he will let me put all the sunscreen i want on him now so he doesnt get another sunburn.<br />

Cinco de Mayo time again. I am bringing cupcakes to his class at school. Im so excited for him my birthday is in the summertime and my mom never got to bring cupcakes to my class so I am stoked to bring them and have his class sing to him!<br />
Owen wanted a spiderman party this year. I got this idea from a website and I hope the party goes smoothly for us! Jeremy has a friend at his work that is dressing up like spiderman and coming to the party for about 20 minutes! I cant wait to see the look on his face and see what his friends do when they see him come into the backyard at our house.<br />

So we went back for another recheck of his eyes. This time he said Owen could use the help of some glasses. He picked these out all by himself. He thought the looked like the glasses you get at the 3D movies. Funny boy!<br />
He tried for a day or two to say they were fuzzy and he didnt need them but today he wore them to school all day and came home with them still on and still smiling :) Thank goodness!<br />
I asked him how the first day with glasses went, he told me a mean 4th grader told him he looked dumb with glasses but he didnt care because he knew he looked cool. Im so glad he was ok with the teasing but man if I had been there that 4th grader would have heard an ear full from this momma bear!<br />

You will see a lot of her in this post!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We left Friday after Jeremy got done at work. It was pretty smooth sailing until Owen told us he had to go to the bathroom and we were about 10-15 min from the next turn off. I dont know how he made it honestly. I dont think Jeremy has ever driven so fast. You are probably wondering why we didnt just stop and let him pee in the bushes or something but it wasnt that kind of emergency :(</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We made it to Vegas just after midnight and we were exhausted from the drive but it was all better when they upgraded our room to a jacuzzi sweet! We were super excited and Owen thought it was so cool to have the tub in our room like that. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The next morning we woke up and drove down the strip to show Owen some of the sights and get a feel for what he might want to see closer up. Our first stop was the aquarium at Mandalay Bay. He loved it of course! It made our sad aquarium in Sandy look like a backyard pool with shrimp in it. :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

This is by far my favorite picture so cool! Owen thought this giant Komodo Dragon was super cool, wanted to take him home as a pet ha!<br />

So we took Owen over to Cesar's for the statue show. We waited 45 min for it to start and then when it did Owen got this worried look on his face. Then he said I dont wanna watch anymore. Then the fire started. That was it. The deep voices and the statues moving plus fire put him over the edge. He started to cry and I picked him up and we walked out of there and down the hallway. I felt really bad. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">When I picked him up I must have pulled something in my back but I didnt feel it until we got up the next morning. I bent down to get something out of my suitcase and couldnt stand back up. It was horribly painful rest of the day but Aunt Debbie was nice enough to let me use her ice pack and I took some ibuprofen. Then rest of the trip and for a couple days after we got home I walked like a 90 year old with a walker.....but there was no walker :(</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

We made it to St George and had lunch with my sweet friend Becky Matua and my brother Morgan who is going to school down there. The weather there was a little rainy but then the sun would come back out. No big deal. We got on the road because we heard the weather was supposed to get bad but we hadnt seen it yet. We even made it cedar city. filled up and stopped to eat. Nothing there either. Well about 10 min after we got back on the roads it started to get really cloudy and dark then 5 min after that it was this! Madness I tell you! There were people sliding off everywhere and you could hardly see in front of you. Lucky for us Owen was watching a movie on the dvd and had no clue just how scary it was. We really thought IF we made it to Beaver we would be spending the night there for sure. We got there and it was wet but no snow and the clouds were gone. Being so close to home and not wanting to pay for a night again we talked and made the decision to push forward. Lucky for us there were just wet roads the rest of the way no snow. We made it home safe and in one piece.<br />

Well they turned out cute and Owen writing his own name on the bottom was perfect. I was so proud of myself that they were done and ready to go in the mail just in time for the holiday. I put a forever stamp on them and sent them out. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Then I got a call from my sister in law that she had to pay $0.20 for it when it came in the mail. </div><div style="text-align: center;">What a wonderful way to show our family that we love them right??? </div><div style="text-align: center;">I felt so dumb!</div><div style="text-align: center;">Who knew that straws and noodles would be so much wt that a forever stamp wouldn't cover the cost.....</div><div style="text-align: center;">beware people!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I didn't realize it at the time but Jeremy had <u>NEVER</u> been to the circus before. The things you learn after almost 9 years of marriage! We had a great time and Jeremy was really impressed with the show. Owen and I went alone last year because Jeremy had to work so being there together as a family was awesome!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

There were some big decisions made, some new things realized & some great news too! Here they are in no particular order:<br />
<br />
* After much deliberation and time in the temple we have decided not to move forward with our adoption plans.<br />
There is a lot that went into that choice and the bottom line is that we are both at peace with the choice we made to stay a family of 3!<br />
* Jeremy had perfect attendance for 2010 and will receive a good bonus for that in a few weeks!<br />
* Verizon has now implemented a new system for 2011 if you have perfect attendance at the end of every month they will give you a $100 gift card to pretty much any place you want(shopping, restaurants, movies).....January perfect attendance so gift card here we come!<br />
*Owen listens to us talk way more than I ever realized. The other night he was putting on his clothes after a shower and he was trying to put on his pjs still soaking wet when I asked him why? he told me,"Thats's how I roll."....I say that all the time!<br />
*Owen and I both had dentist appointments this last month and Owen had no cavities, I had 1 and 1 silver filling that is giving me pain so it will be replaced. Guess I need to focus on my own brushing as much as I do Owen's.<br />
* The dentist also told us that if Owen's 2 front teeth are not in by the time he is 7 they will probably have to make incisions in his gums for the teeth to come through.....please bless that doesn't happen.<br />
* Family really is the most important they are my rock and my soft place to land when life gets hard.<br />
*Owen brought home a paper from school that gives us the option to put him in a duel immersion class for spanish. It starts next year in first grade and will go through sixth grade! YIKES! Just the thought of that freaks me out. I know kids soak it in really great at this age and he will definitely use it to his advantage in this life but I barely made it through my hight school class how will I ever help with homework if its in spanish?<br />
* We have a quote on our fridge that I look at everyday that helps me: Be strong, live honorably and with dignity. When you dont think you can, HOLD ON!<br />
* We are so excited to be able to take a family vacation this year. We haven't had one since 2007! Thats a long time people!<br />
* I love making new friends that surprise you at how alike you are & the more you talk to them you know that friendship will last forever!<br />
* Jeremy and I have been going on more dates and its so nice to go out by ourselves!<br />
<br />
Here are some pics of our year so far hope it continues to be great for our family!<br />

It is always fun when Debbie is in town and we were happy to have them stay at Hotel Hamilton :)<br />
Owen loved all his presents! I love the look on his face in these pictures, he really was excited and happy on Christmas! Christmas Day Jeremy and I woke up to Owen coming in our room at like 7:30 to ask us if Santa had come. It was really cute, and we were both surprised he didnt just run down the stairs to check for himself. We all went down and Jeremy got some great video's with our new camera. We were pretty lazy that morning. My grandma had our traditional breakfast for everyone and for once we were not the first ones there! After everyone had eaten and opened presents we had a gingerbread house contest. My aunt and uncle are both architects so really no one else had a chance, but it was fun! In the afternoon we went over to the Hamilton's house. It was pretty quiet because Jaymee had to go with her mom for the weekend. We gave her her presents the night before and I think she liked them, but who can really tell when you are 1 1/2 ya know?? We decided to pack up the ham they planned on cooking and go to our house instead. We cooked and played games and then watched a movie. It was a quiet end to a long wonderful day. I think we were all missing Jaymee girl too much, so we just kept it relaxed and easy.<br />

They are paying for the course and when he passes it he will get a 5% raise! We are so lucky to have him to take care of us and work so hard. I really dont know you other people out there do work and school at the same time.

We did have a great dinner together and my cousin was just back from his mission. We had so much fun playing games, watching football and the girls all got manicures. We went over to Jeremy's parents house in the afternoon. It was good to chat with them and play card games there, we just couldnt eat anymore food by then. We never remember to pace ourselves and end up stuffed. </div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi41vccSWaxfhalJsx8ouz0sOzjj1PYWqqtDfwn9EKLlOutVYL_15-PpO3IoklXdEWAGSslm88xz94CeAe6_QcXn-HLzDsx-MTu6MbMzh0KjHZP0o0SPVB1kdpXUq-KS5FHEVV64NC8bGY/s1600/2010-11-27+20+30+34.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi41vccSWaxfhalJsx8ouz0sOzjj1PYWqqtDfwn9EKLlOutVYL_15-PpO3IoklXdEWAGSslm88xz94CeAe6_QcXn-HLzDsx-MTu6MbMzh0KjHZP0o0SPVB1kdpXUq-KS5FHEVV64NC8bGY/s400/2010-11-27+20+30+34.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5546946069503137490" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">My mom works with a girl that was cleaning out her garage and didnt want this train table!

I actually thought it was a mosquito bite the first time I saw it. It has gotten bigger ever since. Its even going kinda numb at the biggest part. Now there is 2 well defined bumps there. We have been to the dermatologist to have it checked and we thought for sure they would do a biopsy. She wanted to wait and measure it for record. The doctor seems to think it is due to Jeremy's head set at work but we dont feel the same. We will give her the benefit of the doubt and try it. For those of you who dont know Jeremy had a tumor the size of a cat removed from his abdomen when he was 9. It was pretty scary! It was attached to his spinal cord and they were able to remove it all with no cells left. Our primary care thought this might just be a cyst and wouldnt be something to worry about. But when we reminded him of Jeremy's medical history he rethought that and told us to get it checked just to be safe. I guess we will see if it really does go away switching ears with the headset at work if not I guess there will be some slicing and dicing. </div><div><br /></div><div>Our adoption work is finally moving forward! We finally got Jeremy's employment verified. It was quite the ordeal his work doesnt just fill out forms like a normal employer would. There is a whole website dedicated to it and it was a lengthy process. It's done now though thank goodness and we can move on towards our home-study! We are waiting for Jeremy's divorce decree to come in the mail and then we are basically ready for the home study. I have been cleaning like a mad woman!

There is a gym at his work and his new schedule allows him to go before work starts. He is loving starting his day out with a workout!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">We got new cell phones, which i don't think has happened for about 2 years. They are a bit high tech for me but we are loving all the things that are available on the phones. The touch screen is not something I thought I would ever like, but I DO!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Owen thankfully has not lost any teeth this week, that's huge for us!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Owen's teacher told me that he is a wonderful example to the class and a fabulous student...</div><div style="text-align: center;">I teared up. Nice things said about a son will always make this mom tear up.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">We have homework every night. Something new to us.

Ever since they told us we shouldn't have any more kids. I never felt like it was fair to bring another child into our lives when I wasn't sure I would be here for Owen. There were a couple times when I thought I was doing better and we asked if they would write a letter for us that my health was good enough to raise another child to adulthood. The answer was always no.</div><div style="text-align: center;">But when I got the biopsy good news in June we both looked at each other and just knew that was what we were supposed to do.</div><div style="text-align: center;">We looked around at a few agency's but they went from moderately expensive to down right robbery. I don't know how people do it without a rich relative or a money tree in the backyard.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Our first and obvious choice was LDS Services. </div><div style="text-align: center;">They are I think what every LDS couple wanting to adopt looks at first.</div><div style="text-align: center;">The waiting list is what made us go looking for other options, we had heard from many of our friends that it could/would take years for us to have a adoption through them. </div><div style="text-align: center;">The social workers are only part time which makes it tough to get things done, but we really couldn't afford the other agency's.</div><div style="text-align: center;">We also met all of the requirements at LDS but one.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">When the doctors told me that having another child would not only endanger my health but the baby's as well, we were told children were not recommended and we should do everything in our power to make sure that didn't happen. Doctor terms for have your tubes tied or get a vasectomy. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">We had to get a letter from the specialist who told us that statement. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">ENTER PROBLEMS!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">One doctor told us to get it from the current specialist since it was three years ago, and would have more Merritt coming from them. That doctor of course said it would have to be the other one and round and round we went for about 3 weeks. It seemed impossible. The doctors were out of town, said we will call you back and then wont, or said No your not on our insurance anymore. My current specialist wrote a letter but it didn't have the wording they needed it to have.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">It all came down to that letter. Without the specialist writing it LDS had no choice but to see Jeremy getting the vasectomy as voluntary sterilization and that is not allowed. They could not accept us as clients.We were at a crossroads. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I told Jeremy I was done fighting with Doctors about who said what and when. That if LDS didn't want to see our situation for what it truly was then there was nothing we could do. </div><div style="text-align: center;">It was a daily struggle for us to know what to do. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Were we just not taking the hint from upstairs that this is not the path I want for you, or was it our test to see how much we really wanted it. Every single night we sat up and talked about how we had confirmation in the Temple that this was what we were supposed to do, but why all the struggle? </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">The only glimmer of hope was the first specialist I saw in 2007. He had been out of town during the bulk of the letter incidents. We were waiting to hear back from him. But honestly I didn't really have much faith.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Silly Me.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">If you ever have a moment where it seems your faith is gone. PRAY. It works, I assure you!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">The next day I got a call from the above specialist and his nurse read me the letter he had wrote over the phone. I started crying. It was word for word what LDS was needing it to say. That was another confirmation that we are on the right path!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Our prayers have been answered and we are officially signed up to go forward with adoption! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Ever since then it has been so fast! We got a caseworker. We had our initial interviews.</div><div style="text-align: center;">This weekend we are going to a mandatory class for adoptive parents. One more thing we must complete before a birth mom can chose us. I didnt think we would get in since it was just a week before the class that we got officially approved to begin. If we had not gotten into this class we would have had to wait until January for the next one. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Not so bad you say but nothing moves forward until you have completed this class. We have completed so many of the forms in our packet in the last week. We still have to go through the adoption committee and have them approve us after our background checks come back but I hope all the bumps in the road are behind us.</div><div style="text-align: center;">What seemed impossible is now a very real possibility for us. Yes there is a long way to go and of course a girl has to pick us out of a million families out there. </div><div style="text-align: center;">We are so excited to continue with this new adventure in our lives and hopefully welcome another member into our House of Hams </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">xoxox</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>House of Ham'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02448694247564078917noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604401877146922338.post-23616539533428899282010-09-21T08:39:00.000-07:002010-09-21T09:25:43.856-07:00Fall Family Fun!<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><u><br /></u></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg87lC-B3pAMa97htXoAgP_Cu_xkjpz2JEIRuuzOVV4BVA36LhycYDXFJ_SAAh-WFwwfexvTXrCybrLTJqRPf9jnnXufLk3A1SmHTsk_3S4X8LRoI7XwDadZOH6jj0NHiJR1tqsqV3mmds/s1600/153.JPG"><br /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Our Owen has been in kindergarten for almost a month now and he is loving it!</div><div style="text-align: center;">He has a great teacher that is everything I could ask for, she is patient, speaks softly, and makes everything exciting.

He did really well on certain things. Letters, numbers, counting, sounds that letters make. He did wonderful on puzzles. The things I wasn't prepared for were things like him knowing the different coins. Maybe that is just my view as his mom I hope the teacher thinks he did great too! </div><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dxQ8JkqubUo0708VAQsMXzYemjcM1PK26ElaYQK0yPvs6os6o1pg3WstGcfL3hACp4ryocnizyP9GxhHBkKQg' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>House of Ham'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02448694247564078917noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604401877146922338.post-69807558769955290812010-08-19T14:08:00.000-07:002010-08-19T14:49:04.154-07:00What we did this summer!<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#0000EE;"><u><br /></u></span></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-fv_XULxljoqFX47dSqTWmwHbz-KUbgnx92S_lSjKVMTXy486F2GWVNnw3idzfdK3qvwe23yEa9M1-syYyUk58u6lzGaIkMZa3Nebyk57OhkLwxBr4K98_FSFByoKLmUJJx7Nj1y4Tfc/s1600/016.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-fv_XULxljoqFX47dSqTWmwHbz-KUbgnx92S_lSjKVMTXy486F2GWVNnw3idzfdK3qvwe23yEa9M1-syYyUk58u6lzGaIkMZa3Nebyk57OhkLwxBr4K98_FSFByoKLmUJJx7Nj1y4Tfc/s400/016.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5507234795140324338" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">I took Owen to the circus for the first time!

Lots of outside time, eating otter pops all day long, going to the pool and playing with friends. That last one is really driving me nuts though lately. It seems like Owens friends are here no more than 5 minutes and they are fighting. I hear tattling all day long! "You cant be on my team",......"then im not going to be your friend anymore",....."Owen is not sharing".....ugh! It just too much some days. I try really hard to let them work it out on their own but I find myself jumping in. I dont know how he is going to survive kindergarten. Owen does really great when he is playing with just one kid but add more into it and watch out. He grabs things without asking. Purposly knocks over things his friends are playing with. I suppose its what kids do but it really bothers me. I feel like that is more of a 2 year old thing instead of a 5 year old thing. </div><div>Plus this one family of kids on our street is super loud and they do not have good manners. The other day the one little boy came over and he smelled SO strongly of poop I sent him home the minute he walked in the door. </div><div>Lucky for us we have not had any teeth knocked out for a while and hopefully we can go a long time until the next one! </div><div>Owen is getting really excited for school and asks me everyday if its time for him to wear his new clothes yet! His backpack looks really giant on him too. I am pretty sure I will be crying on the first day of school. I have no shame in it. Although i do hope i make it to the car before it comes out. :)</div><div><br /></div><div>Jeremy and I have our 8 year anniversary this weekend.It has gone by so fast! Who knew i would know this man most of my life and now be spending eternity together! Owen will be sleeping over at my parents so we can have a night to ourselves. It will be nice to spend time together and remember the day we got married! Jeremy has been working so much overtime to help us build up a savings. We have some wonderful things in mind for the future, more on that to come! </div><div><br /></div><div>Funny things in our lives lately!</div><div><br /></div><div>Owen: I asked him to go upstairs after we had finished breakfast and get dressed for the day. He had on long sleeve and long pant pjs on. He came back down with shorts and a short sleeve shirt on top of his pjs. I asked him why he did that? He said I want to be like you and wear my pjs all day.......yeah he meant my garments! Poor kid! I had a good laugh about it though!</div><div><br /></div><div>Jeremy: I had this cute white shirt that had pink flowers on it in big print. Well I was blowdrying my hair getting ready for the day and Jeremy came around the corner and said you look like a GIANT rose. Yep i changed pretty quick after that. He apparently meant it as a compliment but i didnt really like being refered to as Giant anything!</div><div><br /></div><div>Nicole: A couple nights ago i had a strange dream that a bad guy was after me and to get away i had to jump over a stream. I made it across but hurt my leg in the process. Well in the morning when i woke up my leg hurt but i didnt think much of it. When Jeremy called on his first break he said , can we talk.I said sure and he says to me why did you jump over me last night?! I laughed so hard i guess i was sleep jumping or something. I jumped almost clean over him from my side of them bed and kinda landed on his legs. He tried to ask me what was wrong but i didnt hear him because of my earplugs. I guess i stood by the bed for a minute went in the bathroom and then came back to bed. FREAKY!!</div><div>I guess i scraped my leg on our bedframe when i jumped. Poor jeremy i think it really freaked him out! Hopefully that was the end of that.</div><div><br /></div>House of Ham'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02448694247564078917noreply@blogger.com2
