Finally...an update!!!

Well...I warned that I may not be too good at this blogging thing!!! But, here I am finally with an update. First, let's start with the boys...
Forrest's soccer season ended a couple of weeks ago, he was the star of his team with at least a couple of goals each game!! He tried out for Sparta (a competition soccer club) and broke his foot during tryouts, he is now wearing a walking cast :( We are still waiting on the results of the tryouts, with big hopes! We will keep you posted....
Chandler still has one more soccer game left!! He is also doing a great job this season, he is the best goalie on his team, or in his age group for that matter!! I think we could call Chandler Dylan's # 1 fan and vice versa. He loves carrying Dylan around the house, spinning her, playing the drums for her, you name it...he does it. It is so cute!! Both the boys are such a huge help with Dylan, I am so lucky to have them!!
Last week the boys went with their mom to South Dakota and had a blast!! They drove there and stayed in a cabin with some of their aunts and uncles and their grandma. They saw Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, and so much more. Forrest took a ton (by a ton, I mean over 900) of pictures...I will try to get him to get on here to post a few! Now, they are just waiting for school to end...5 more days!! They can't wait for summertime! They are planning a trip up to Payson Lakes in June and we are hoping for a week at Jordanelle in July.
Dylan is now 10 months and changing daily!! She started crawling about a month and a half ago and we can barely keep up. As soon as we set her down on the floor, she either heads for the stairs (which she climbs very well now) or out the back door...before getting to either, she turns around to make sure we are watching, then smiles (knowing that both are off limits) and continues!! Her first tooth broke through a couple of weeks ago with her second to follow about a week later!! She is a great eater...though, her measurements don't reflect it...she is in the 15 percentile, just a wee one:)
Jon & I are still just plugging away as usual...not much new with us!!
Here are a few recent pics...enjoy!!

















One of the few pictures of Forrest we were able to take, the boys really don't like their picture taken (maybe a little of Grammie T and their dad in them!!)















I had to bribe Chandler for this one...


Dylan showing off her shoe fettish!!


Stuffing her mouth with one of her favorites...Cheerios!

We get a little messy with dinner sometimes...I think she was showing off for the boys!!

This is the look we get before she heads out the door!!
