Our Groundhog




Landon is becoming more and more alert now. It is so fun to see him go through all the firsts! He smiles the most at daddy right now.

The Gap


Kolton lost his first tooth on Saturday. It is almost silly how excited mom and dad got over this little milestone! K-dawg was pretty excited too! He was chewing on his shirt (yes he is part puppy it seems) and told Darin his tooth was loose. With a little non-painful persuasion it came out without alot of blood. Kolton was very excited to put his tooth under his pillow and woke up bright and early to find the two dollars from the toothfairy.

Baby Trends

If you are noticing that we move each time we have a child, you are right on!
Moved from Provo to Portland after Kolton was born
Moved from Portland to Layton via Salt Lake just before Madi was born
Moving from Layton to Idaho Falls now that Little Landon is here
I guess I should just start packing every time I get pregnant!

Idaho or BUST

For the last 5 or 6 our goal has been to move back to Idaho, the land of our roots. It always seemed like the unicorn, you can see it but not touch it! This summer we got serious about it. Darin vamped up his resume and I scoured the classified to find opening for accountants. On the last day of a summer trip up to Idaho I found a posting in the good old Post Register for an Idaho Falls Accounting firms seeking someone with Darin's experience. I passed on the info and he sent off the resume. He interviewed, we waited and waited somemore, had a baby, waited some more and then received an offer that felt right. So we are MOVING!! Darin starts his new job December 2. The kids and myself will stick around until the weekend of December 18 to let Kolton finish school before Christmas. Now we just need to get our house on the market and sell it, no easy task in such a soft market! Your prayers would be appreciated!!
