St George Trip Feb. 21-23

Jethro had meetings in St. George so we figured we all would go. It was nice to escape to someplace a little warmer. The kids did fantastic traveling. As we were eating dinner in out hotel room that night, Katya got sick and continued to be so for the next 6 hours. I felt so bad for her, especially when she got to the point of nothing left to puke up. Luckily, the 2 other kids slept through it all. Katya fell asleep after midnight and slept for about 7 hours.

Tuesday we ate breakfast and then took Jethro to his meeting. I took the kids to the park to play and eat lunch. Luckily, Katya was feeling better. Too much traveling excitement for her, we think. After lunch we headed back to the hotel where Tenzing, Katya, and I took naps and Cali snuck snacks and watched cartoons. After Jethro finished his meetings, we headed to red Robin for dinner, where Katya proceeded to eat a whole bowl of spaghetti. She was hungry. Jethro took Cali swimming that night in the heated outdoor pool and she was so excited. That girl loves hotel swimming pools.













Wednesday, we got up and ate breakfast and packed up our stuff. We checked out of the hotel and took Jethro to his meeting. I took the kids to the St. George temple and then aimlessly drove around looking for a certain park. (I need an iphone so I won't have to drive around lost again.) Jethro's meeting got out early so we picked him up and headed to the park for lunch. The kids enjoyed eating and playing before we headed home.



The drive home was nice and overall was a great trip.

One of her favorite things

Katya sure loves to dance. I got a song from somewhere called "My Heart Bleeps Noisy Beeps." It made it onto the kids' iPod somehow, and whenever it comes on, Katya goes wild! She loves it. So, I made a movie trailer about her dancing, which I made in just a couple minutes in iMovie '11. It took longer to upload it to YouTube to embed it here than it did to make it.



Here is the raw video from that, which only the grandparents and aunts and uncles will want to watch, I am sure. But I'll be watching it numerous times.

Tenzing's First Birthday

Tenzing turned 1. He had a fantastic day and absolutely loved all the attention he got. We had a carnival theme complete with games, crafts, popcorn, pretzels, and cupcakes. He started by eating his cupcake very carefully, but finished with a bang. He really enjoyed it. We had so much fun with all the friends and family that celebrated Tenzings wonderful day with us.

1 YEAR OLD!

Well, Tenzing made it through his first year in one piece and has come out stronger. He is such a fun kid and we are happy to have him in our family.

12 Month stats:
22 lbs 10 oz
29 1/2 inches long

Notes:

• Figured out he really is lactose intolerant when we switched him to real milk. Now he drinks Lactaid.
• Still a crawling maniac.
• Will walk along furniture and push things, but refuses to walk with us.
• Loves to eat food.
• Learned to go down the stairs when he escaped out the back door to play. Refuses to go down the stairs in our house.
  
• Still fits his 12 month clothes comfortably.
• Loves wrestling and playing with his sisters.
• Is pretty particular about feeding times.
• Loves beans and tortillas.
• Happy boy now that we don't feed him lactose foods.
• Plays with his toys in his room well.

Opening his birthday present:

Snuggles with the technology addicts

Did we ever tell you how addicted our kids are to technology?

Ballet

The girls took an 8 week ballet class through the continuing education department in the school district. They absolutely loved it and were so cute dancing.
