The last sunny day…

Idaho weather is dramatic.

It really doesn't fit. The people are all fairly laid back and easygoing…but the weather, not so much!


In other words… it snowed.


The high; 34 degrees.




Moving to Arizona or California or someplace warm and sunny with occasional bouts of "partly cloudy" has never been so much of an option.



Fortunately, yesterday we sent the sun off with a farewell to be remembered…








with a long walk off into the sunset.







And this morning we geared up for the cold.

Weather...

They are predicting snow for tomorrow~ today it was 78.

Up to our eyeballs in laundry...


why? well I know why. It is because Isaac changes his clothes more than I wash! My personal take on this is that he has the smallest bladder in the world! On a 1.5 hour drive~ we stopped 3 times for Isaac to go potty.

I foresee a remedy to this malady in the near future as we have an appointment at Primary Children's Medical Center in SLC to meet with a Urologist.

They had two available dates for the month. This Friday at noon.... or the 16th anytime. Since our family vacation mandates that we will be down in Utah anyways, it fit perfect for the 16th.

That puzzle fit together nicely!

I am sure it will all go well.

INTRODUCING....

Bella (bey*ah)




Our temporary adoptive member of the family...




The kids absolutely adore her! I don't know if she is happy

about the undivided attention... or hiding from the kids.



The kids have generously offered to join the

poop scooping club!




Good job guys!!

Quirks...

Meet Eli. Eli is a typical 3 year old boy in many ways. He loves climbing trees and smooshing ants. He loves playing with his siblings. He loves Thomas the Tank Engine... but there are also a few quirks about Eli that just make me nervous. The likely reason is due to the fact that I already have one child diagnosed with Aspergers so when a similarity presents itself, I fret a little. Not for myself... I just know what a hard time Seth has and would hate to see another child of mine go through the same.
Eli and I went to the library. He loves going with me to the library because they have a few toys for the kids to play with. This months theme happened to be Farm Animals. Notice the way he is lining up the tractors in an A-B pattern. Then there are the cows in the background. Note the way ALL the cows are together placed onto a picture of a cow! Hmmm... time will tell. In the meantime....
I love my little genius, quirky children!!
