My little musician


Daymon found my clarinet the other day. He is destined to be a woodwind player. Here are some pictures of his exploration and playing it with his daddy. They had a good time and my clarinet did survive. What a wonderful memory and the start of a passing on a family treasure.

Sleep, Birthday, and Zoo trips

Well, to say that it has been a while would be an understatement. Blogging will take some practice. Daymon turned 2 and I will try and get some pictures to post. I can't believe that I am old enough to have a 2 year old. We are having a party for him at the zoo on Saturday since that is his favorite place, but we opened a few presents and had cake and ice cream on his actual birthday. He enjoyed opening gifts. I think this was the first time he actually got the idea. He loves his new toys and pjs and is playing with them constantly.

We started him on a sleep schedule and he now goes to bed at 7 and sleeps mainly through the night!!! I love having my evening free since Cori goes down around the same time. And to have our bed back! Room to roll over is great. A queen bed for 4 of us is not big enough. Tonight he even went down with no tears. There is hope.

Like I said Daymon loves the zoo. Cori also enjoys it. Mainly for the stroller ride, but occasionally she will see an animal. His favorite animal is the bear. At the Pocatello Zoo they have a tree house slide that he loves to play one. This summer we got the year pass and have gone at least once a week.

Daymon's Thumb


In March Daymon was trying to help me make dinner. I was putting Taco soup in the crock pot. I asked Dave to get a can of chopped tomatoes to put in it. Daymon heard me ask and went to get the little chopper. The blade fell out and sliced his thumb. I didn't pass out but washed it off and got a compress on it. Off to the doctors we all went. Thanks to Aunt Jody and a nice doctor we survied getting 4 stitches. 10 days later Dave took them out. Daymon was a very boy and now has his first scar.

Cori's First Meal



Cori had her first meal of cereal on her 4 month birth day (March 14).  She loves to eat like a big girl. Her favorite food is definitely applesauce but we are starting her on stage 2 foods and she likes chicken. Her are some pictures of her first meal. She was a mess but we had fun!
