I'm really bad at this!






I don't know why this is so hard for me, but for some reason I can't keep this thing up to date! Maybe its because nothing really interesting happens....Bo did get a new job and he is loving it! William turned two in March and is on his way to becoming potty trained. At first it was hard to even get him to sit on the seat, but I finally got a potty seat that fits on top of ours and he is loving it! When we first got it and he opened the package he thought it was a steering wheel and played with it all night it was so funny, but the next day when he found it on the toilet he wanted to take it off and play with it. William and I have been able to go home to Vale a couple of times minus Bo and although we missed him we really have enjoyed being with my family. William always comes home missing Brooke and Aubrey which is really sad. Today there was a little girl yelling and screaming while we were outside I asked Will what he thought the noise was and he goes "Aubrey!" and started running towards the noise. I always know when I'm being boring because he will start saying "Car Aubrey?" when I hear that I know he must be extremely bored to want to drive 6 hours just to play with someone! He is talking a lot more which has its positives and negatives it is so cute hearing him speak and try to form sentences, but if he wants something he will say it over and over again like a broken record until he gets what he wants! I've lost my temper more than a few times because of it. My sister Michelle graduated High School as the Valedictorian this last weekend and Will and I went down to see her it was great to see her we were all so proud! I also got to see a lot of cousins and friends I hadn't seen in quite some time so it was a great time!

Christmas and updates




For Christmas we were supposed to go to Portland, but when we got to the Boise Airport everything was closed down so we stayed with my parents in Vale instead. Even though it wasn't what we planned Christmas was great! We were able to see one of my little sister Michelle's basketball games which was fun and while we were at the game William crawled up into my Grandma Ellsworth's lap and cuddled it was so cute! William had never Officially met Santa and my Dad hadn't shaved for a while so I joked that he should dress up as Santa he said ok and a while later he came out with a santa beard on. It was so funny and I'm happy I have a Dad that was willing to do that for William. Especially since William just screamed when he saw him. After waking up at 5:00 in the morning on Christmas later that day we all went down to the church gym to play basketball Bo and I decided to pull William down there on a sled the moment we put him in there he fell asleep it was kinda funny because it looked a little strange! It was fun to see everyone my sister Mary and her family came up to visit it was great to see them and Melinda and her family as well.
