Spring Break

Woo hoo!! We are so excited... Nik finished his second quarter of dental school on Wednesday and now we have a BREAK!! It doubles as our Spring Break, but we are still very excited about it! The kids don't quite understand what it means, but every day when they wake up and daddy is still here... very fun! They get so excited! We don't have too many plans, just hanging out! We got Ian a twin bed (he was falling out of his toddler bed almost every night) and we had to get a new computer (thank goodness for tax refunds, it just stinks having to spend them!) our old one had a nasty virus that kept coming back and it would access the internet and pull up nasty things, it wouldn't let us do anything, it kept trying to purchase spyware.... just a pain in the you know what... so instead of paying more money to have it fixed, we used that money towards a new one! Windows 7 is awesome by the way!

I got a new calling... I'm now the secretary in the primary presidency. It was pretty cool how it all took place, but I don't feel grown up enough to have this calling =) I guess I do have two kids and I'm closer to my 10 year high school reunion than not... but I still don't feel grown up yet! It is a pretty fun calling being in the Primary, but not in charge of any of the kids! =)

IAN GOES TO NURSERY NOW!!! =) Finally he goes to nursery. He still cries a little bit, but he is so brave. We got new leaders and he really likes one named Brooke. As soon as sacrament meeting is over (we have that first) he starts to cry a little and says we need to find Brooke. So we find her and he goes with her to the nursery, we don't even have to drop him off! He stays the whole time and has so much fun! He has been singing all the songs at home and he talks about it all the time! It is so cute! And it is so nice to not have to juggle both the kids!

Miranda is getting so big... she pulls herself up to everything and walks around furniture. She likes to play. It is so fun to say "I'm going to get you" and she will take off crawling in the other direction with a big smile on her face! She is so cute!

They are finally getting better (although Miranda is getting 4 teeth on the top right now) and we can start getting back on a good sleeping schedule!

We are excited to have you home this week hunny!! Love you!

Have fun! I know how it is to have a Daddy M.I.A. all the time, breaks from school are precious! (Too bad they don't get breaks AT ALL in Roger's master program...Boo) I miss you!
