They were supposed to be moving out this weekend, then the house will be cleaned Wednesday, so we can start moving in Thursday. Jordon has the day off Friday so we will try to get it all done then, at least have it all moved to the house. Then the unpacking can begin.<br />
I have also found some kids to babysit. Next week I will have 3 extra kids, besides my own. The girl is 5, almost 6, then the boys are 3 and 18 months. The boys I will just have every other week because they are with their mom on the other weeks. I will have the daughter each week though. She has a great time playing with Ashley and I'm sure Sam will have a great time with the 3 year old so we should have a great time.<br />
School is going good for all the kids. Sam loves his preschool and hates days that he doesn't get to go. Here are some pictures of the bird "mests" that he made at school this last week.<br />

We even had to borrow some from Sarah because we go through them so quick. It usually only takes us less than a week to read through one.<br />
I have also been busy this week making some hair bows for Ashley since she now wears some every day for school. It's been a fun project for me and it has made her extra excited about wearing them so it's even better.<br />
Jordon has been busy working both his jobs. They have even made him a shift lead at Triumph (the residential home) so he is in charge of everybody there. The boys love him there and think he is totally cool. Most days aren't too bad, but the last few days have been a little rough with some of the boys causing problems. We sure do appreciate him though and all he does for us.<br />
Parent teacher conferences are this week for the older 2 kids. Hopefully we will only have good reports from their teachers, but we will see.rachhunt1http://www.blogger.com/profile/01573272303061949437noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959356502996338246.post-66535265501370895362011-09-10T18:16:00.000-07:002011-09-10T18:16:33.527-07:00Bad news for usSo after we got all excited about getting into a house for a great deal we talked to the owner. He told us his daughter has decided to stay there she says just for 6 months, but the owner thinks more like until the end of the school year. We will get first dibs once they do decide to move, but until then we are just stuck waiting. We are kind of thinking if we can get financed at the beginning on next year when Jordon has been at his job a little longer then we could maybe get them to push her out because they could sell it to us. Who knows though. In the meantime, we are trying to decide if we should find a place to rent or if we should just stick it out here until they decide to move.<br />
On the other hand, school seems to be going well for everyone. Ashley did some assessments this week at school and the school was able to get approved for another half day Kindergarten class so she will have a new teacher on Monday with only 20 students in her class instead of the 33 like she had the first week of school. Hopefully some of her new friends will be in her new class as well. Guess we'll see.rachhunt1http://www.blogger.com/profile/01573272303061949437noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959356502996338246.post-27519058580686700452011-09-10T18:09:00.000-07:002011-09-10T18:09:17.148-07:00Jr. Peach Days ParadeAshley and Ethan got to be on their school's Jr. Peach Day Parade float (if you can call it that). Here is there pictures from it. Sam got to watch it all with his cousin Avery (Cory and Lindsey's daughter).<br />

This last month has definitely flown by. During August we spent a lot of time packing up and moving all of our things to storage and we are currently staying at Jordon's mom's house. We moved there so we could get the kids in school in Brigham so that they wouldn't have to transfer schools after just a few weeks.<br />
Things have seemed to fall into place for us. We got the kids registered for school and they started on Mon. Aug. 29. They ride the bus and both Ethan and Ashley love it! Ashley even says she has made a few friends. She is actually disappointed because this coming week she doesn't have school at all. They are doing assessments so each child goes at a set time and she wants to go all week not just on her day. So instead she gets to go to Sam's "school".<br />
I also started school again doing online classes through USU. Because of the gap between the last time I attended school and now I actually qualified for a program called Students with Children. Through this program I am eligible for the program to buy my books for my classes and I also can enroll my kids in the on-campus daycare/preschool for free. This is for me to use while I am at class, studying, or using the facilities on campus. Because I am in all online classes I just use the time to get homework done and study. Sam was really excited to have a "school" of his own. He loves it and also says he has made new friends.<br />
We were going to look for a house to do a rent to own on, but it was looking like that would take a while before we could find anything so we were about to start looking for a house to rent, when we got a phone call from Jordon's grandma, Linda. A couple in her ward have a home that currently their daughter's family is living in, but will be moving soon. Her daughters are attending school in Roy so they are looking for a place to move to down there. This couple lives in Oregon and own a house up there too. They originally wanted to sell us the home for $150,000, but with Jordon not being on his job not very long we didn't think we would qualify for anything yet. Linda told us they would probably do a rent to own, but wanting to sell it for that much we thought the rent would probably be around $1000 a month and we just can't afford that, so we didn't even go to look at it. Linda came over the next day and said they really wanted to show it to us and that they said they would work with us. She said we could maybe just tell them how much our max rent we could afford would be and see if they could do it. So I went to look at the house with her and I loved it. It is a 5 bedroom, 2 bath home with a shop out back and lots of storage. They have updated all of it so there isn't really anything we would need to improve on it. We finished the tour and Linda asked him what they were thinking of for rent. He said they would like $700 a month with $100 deposit and they would do a rent to own. I told him we definitely wanted it. So that night I took Jordon back so he could see it. We will get to move in as soon as their daughter moves out. We're not sure when that will be, but she said for sure before the end of October. We are hoping sooner than that, but we will see.<br />
I think that is about all of our updates for now so I will post again when we have some more updates. I will try to post pictures of the kids' first day of school soon as well.rachhunt1http://www.blogger.com/profile/01573272303061949437noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959356502996338246.post-42221777585950102522011-07-29T18:32:00.000-07:002011-07-29T18:32:59.516-07:00Update and Tremonton City DaysHere is an update already. We found out that none of Jordon's credits will transfer from Stevens Henager so okay fine, but they also maxed him out on financial aid while he was there so any schooling he does he would have to pay out of pocket. Since we don't have that kind of pocket change he has decided to just not go back to school. He talked to his boss at work and his boss said there are some classes he could take to get certified in the work that he is doing so it would give him a little more value and that the company would be willing to pay for it. So he is looking forward to doing that.<br />
Also I still haven't found a job yet. Went to 2 interviews and those assessments and so far haven't got any job. I went to fill out another application today so I guess we will see if I actually hear anything from that. If not we will probably be moving to Brigham City towards the end of August and I will just try to find kids to babysit there or another job.<br />
Last weekend was Tremonton City Days so Tremonton had a few fun activities that we took advantage of. Thursday night they gave out tickets to the Ogden Raptors baseball game so we went to that and Lindsey and Cory came with us. Ethan loved it and was really into it, but Ashley and Sam both just ran around most of the time. It was really hot at first and we sat on the bleachers so the sun was in our eyes until about the 4th inning. We decided to leave after the 6th inning because they were starting to drive me crazy.<br />

Friday night they had a movie in the park which was "Yogi Bear". Grandma and Grandpa Hunter came over and went to that with us. It was really windy and the screen was a big 30 ft. blowup screen which started bending in half during the movie because of the wind, but overall we had a good time. Sorry I forgot to take pictures.<br />
<br />
Saturday afternoon we went to Jordon's Mom's house for dinner and some water fun for the kids. She had bought a little wading pool that had a slide attached to it. The kids had a great time sliding down it.<br />

And for the 4th of July fireworks we went to Brigham and ended up parking right next to the park that they light them off in so we just set out our chairs and watched them right overhead. We were so close we actually had ashes falling on us during the show. I had to take this picture because this was the first year we were able to all sit outside and enjoy them. Ashley was wearing some earmuffs Jordon has for shooting guns so it wasn't too loud for her. After I took this picture Sam started to get a little scared though so he ended up falling asleep on my lap with me covering his ears.<br />

And will continue to be so for the next while. Jordon's hours were cut back at his job so he was only working 32 hours a week. Because of this I have been looking for a job to help be able to pay our bills. I applied at a utility billing company in Logan. I was originally told "thanks but no thanks" so I was a little disappointed. The next week I saw that they still had a mail room sorter position open on their website so I sent them another email saying I had sent them my resume a few weeks before and I saw they still had the mail room position open and I was interested. I got a call from them yesterday asking me to come in and do some assessments tomorrow (Friday). If I get this job we will move back up to Logan so that only Jordon would be commuting to work instead of both of us. I will also be going back to college this Fall. I have about 4 semesters of school work to do to earn a Bachelors Degree in Family Life Studies. It is an online degree so all my classes are online which will help with working. Jordon has also decided to go back to school to earn a degree that he will enjoy working in. He has decided to do Radiography through Weber. We are hoping to get him started this Fall as well. It doesn't look like any of his credits from Stevens Henager will transfer so he will pretty much be starting from square one. He's not terribly excited about that, but he is really excited about doing the Radiography work.<br />
The kids are all excited to move and Ethan is really excited to move to the Logan area because he has a cousin on Jordon's side that lives in Providence that he likes to play Wii with so I'm sure we will have some play days once we move. Life will be pretty crazy for us this next month because we are planning on moving before school starts so the kids start school in their new schools so they won't have to transfer after just a few weeks. Exciting and busy times for us coming up!rachhunt1http://www.blogger.com/profile/01573272303061949437noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959356502996338246.post-84132018687036901922011-07-07T19:04:00.000-07:002011-07-07T19:04:34.654-07:00Our 4th of July WeekendStarting the July 4th weekend we didn't really have anything in particular planned. By the end of it it seemed we had found something to do every day. Friday night we went to Perry to watch a movie in the park they were showing. We saw Gnomeo and Juliet. It was a pretty cute movie and the kids seemed to enjoy it.<br />
Saturday we were going to go camping with Jordon's brother Eric up Farmington Canyon. He called us that morning and said that it was closed so we were going to find another spot to go. We decided on Mantua, but later found out it was full as well. We decided we would put off the camping trip for another weekend when hopefully it wouldn't be so busy. Jordon and I decided we would take the kids fishing at Mantua anyway and then we could head over to Perry to watch the fireworks when we were done. We spent a few hours fishing and each of the kids got to reel in a fish. When it started to get late we decided to head over to Perry. Jordon's mom has a lot they are planning on building on up on the hill so we decided we would go there to watch the fireworks so we would have a great view and not have to deal with a crowd. It was a great view, but the mosquitoes were terrible. When we got home Sam was having bad reactions to the mosquitoes, swelling and welts, so we gave him some allergy medicine and we all headed to bed keeping him close. He was still a little swollen the next day, but looking much better.<br />
We went to Jordon's grandparent's house for dinner that day; his grandma does a dinner for the family every Sunday.<br />
On Monday we got up and went in to Perry again for their parade. The kids loved it and got plenty of candy. That night we went to Brigham's fireworks. While trying to find parking we found a great spot right next to the park so we decided we would just sit outside the car and watch them overhead. We had pulled some earmuffs Jordon has for shooting guns out of storage for Ashley to wear so she wouldn't have to be scared. For the first time in 5 years we finally got to watch fireworks without her crying or screaming. It was so nice. Sam was a little scared though so he sat on my lap and I covered his ears the entire time. It was a great seat although we did get some ashes rained on us.<br />
Jordon also got Tuesday off so we spent the day relaxing at home. It was a very fun weekend.rachhunt1http://www.blogger.com/profile/01573272303061949437noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959356502996338246.post-25526416885662362782011-07-07T18:47:00.000-07:002011-07-07T18:47:04.530-07:00TuacahnThe last weekend in June we were lucky enough to take a trip to St. George. Jordon's grandma bought the family tickets to The Little Mermaid at the Tuacahn and a hotel room for the night. We headed down Friday morning and got checked into the hotel that afternoon. We spent some time swimming and even got to spend a little bit of time at my brother's house there in town. After dinner we headed up to the show. The kids were all excited and I just hoped they would like it enough to sit still during the entire thing. We actually had great seats only about 9 rows back from the stage. The kids loved it and I did too. Jordon tolerated it. At intermission Sam was ready to go, but I had to keep explaining that we would soon and tried to get him to just watch the rest or fall asleep. It was a little long, over 3 hours, for a kids show especially, but still pretty cute. The next day we got up, had breakfast, and went over to my brother's house to hang out with them a little more. They fed us lunch and then we headed home. On the way home we were able to stop and meet up with my parents for dinner. It was a busy weekend, but fun to spend time with so much of our family. Here are some pictures from the trip.<br />

We had a picnic in the park with Jordon's dad and his wife and Jordon's brother and his girlfriend. Then we went to the zoo for a few hours. Luckily we were able to get some coupons for buy an adult entry and get a child's entry free. So we only had to pay for Jordon and I to get in. The zoo is doing some renovations so they had some mechanical dinosaurs around the zoo. Here are some of the pictures from our fun day.<br />

It was certainly a memorable one. Of course I don't have any pictures on our camera because as soon as I got it out to take pictures the batteries died and I didn't have any replacements. Jordon did take some with his phone, but I haven't got them from him yet. I'll post them when I do. We decided we'd stay somewhat close to home just because gas is so expensive. Because we have such small vehicles we couldn't fit all our needed supplies and all of the family into one car so we had to take both cars. We found a new campground (new to us) to try out that was only about 45 min. from home. I headed up earlier in the day with the kids so we could make sure we got a campsite. Jordon came up after he got off work at 5. The kids and I got to the campground at about 2 pm which was check in time. We found a nice spot and started setting up. The kids got the chairs set up and Ethan and I got the tent set up with the beds all made inside. About 3 o'clock a guy pulls up and says that the spot we were in was actually reserved by him and another one that was filled by someone else as well. He apologized and left to go talk to the forest ranger about it. I collapsed the tent and shoved (literally shoved) everything back into the car. We moved to the site right next to the one we were in because it was pretty much the only other one open. I waited a little while before reassembling the tent to see if someone would come kick us out of that spot too. After about an hour no one did so I set up the tent again. If was about then that I realized I hadn't packed toilet paper or matches. The bathrooms there didn't have toilet paper. So I sent Jordon a text (because we had limited service) and told him to bring those 2 things and to hurry since we couldn't start a fire until he got there with the matches. While waiting for him Ethan decided he was going to run up to the entrance to wait for him. After getting bored waiting he decided to head back down to our spot and tripped on the way. He ended up with skinned knees and road rash on one side of his face and a goose egg on his forehead. Poor kid. Because of that he was ready to go home that night. Jordon finally showed up and we got dinner done and eaten. The rest of the evening was pretty uneventful. We headed to bed and slept. I was the only one that got a little cold. The next day we spent hanging around camp for the most part. The kids loved climbing up the trails on the hill. Ethan made friends with some of the other boys in the campground and spent a lot of the day fishing in the river with them. He didn't catch any, but seemed to have fun. That evening he came back long enough to eat dinner and then was back hanging out with these boys. They took him on a 4-wheeler ride that night and invited him over for banana boats at their camp (which was the one we got kicked out of). We headed to bed somewhat early that night because it started to rain. We had covered our tent with a tarp and had one under our tent so we hoped we would stay somewhat dry. The rain stopped and started all through the night and when we woke up the next morning it was still raining. By then it had started to leak into the tent so we cleaned everything up and headed home. We were planning on going camping this weekend, but the weather was supposed to be raining again and we didn't want to deal with that so it looks like we will be staying home. Yesterday was a beautiful day though so we might consider it if it stays good weather the rest of the week. There are lots of campgrounds that are new to us that are close by for us to discover.rachhunt1http://www.blogger.com/profile/01573272303061949437noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959356502996338246.post-34076558634594770892011-06-05T11:49:00.000-07:002011-06-05T11:49:11.630-07:00Sam4 years ago yesterday I gave birth to my youngest and last child. I thought it would be fun to tell his birth story. Ever since Jordon and I got pregnant with our first child we felt that we would have a boy, girl, boy in that order. We had Ethan, then Ashley and completely expected to be told that our youngest was a boy when we had our ultrasound determining the sex of the baby. We were quit surprised when the doctor told us that we were expecting a girl. We already had a boy name picked out and no girl names at all. Jordon asked the doctor how sure he was that we were having a girl and the doctor said 98% because he had to leave a little margin for error. After we left we spent the rest of the pregnancy trying to decide on a girl name. Towards the end we had it narrowed down to 2. Jordon liked Kylie Ann and Ethan and I liked Addison. We had some friends who were expecting their first boy. I had saved all of Ethan's clothes because I expected to have another boy, but gave away all of Ashley's. We told them if we were having a girl we would swap our boy clothes for their girl clothes to help each other out. So we did.<br />
Towards the end of the pregnancy we were living at my parents' house while we were trying to find a house to buy. Because of this move we changed doctors. My new doctor was going on vacation during the time that the baby was due so she gave us 2 options: be started early or wait and risk being delivered by a different doctor if it came before she got back. Of course I took the option of being started early. My parents had gone on vacation with my younger sister so it was just us at home. My other younger sister came with her daughter to stay during the birth and help out until my parents got back. The doctor set the date for us to go in to the hospital to be started. We were suppose to be at the hospital on June 3, a Sunday, at 5 pm. On the way to the hospital Jordon and I decided that the name would be Kylie Ann Hunter. I had the thought cross my mind "What if it's a boy?" but I quickly shoved it out of my head thinking "No it won't be. The doctor said it was a girl."<br />
We got to the hospital and the nurse got me hooked up to all the machines. As she was hooking me up she was talking to me about who I was/belonged to (small town) and what we were expecting (girl). Come to find out, I went to school with her son. After she hooked me up she asked if I was feeling any contractions. I said no and she said that I was contracting so she was going to call the doctor to see if she wanted to just start me on pitocin or just wait and see what was going to happen. I don't remember a lot of what really took up the time. I filled out all our paperwork filling in Kylie Ann for the baby's name. I remember getting an epidural. My sister came up with her baby to keep us company. About 10 or 11 pm Jordon's mom and step dad showed up with Ethan and Ashley and talked to us for a little bit. They were going to stay the night at my parent's house. About midnight they were tired and I was still only about a 5 so I told Jordon to take them to my parents house and get them settled for the night because it would probably still be a while. About 10 minutes after he left to take them the nurse came in and checked me again. After checking she said okay, I'll go tell the doctor we're ready. I was pretty shocked. I tried calling Jordon's phone and he didn't answer so my sister called my parent's house and Jordon's mom said he had just left. We figured if he just left it would only take him 15 minutes before he was back. By then the doctor and nurses were back in there telling me to keep my legs closed and not to push if I felt an urge to push. I honestly didn't feel anything so that wasn't hard. Amy was waiting by the door of the hospital to watch for Jordon and hurry him in. He had gone to the gas station for a drink so he took extra time. As soon as he got there the doctor told me I could start pushing. The baby started sliding right out and the next I heard the doctor say was "Uh oh". Not the best thing to hear the doctor say. The cord was wrapped around the babies neck and she was struggling to get it off. She finally got it and I continued to push. Then I hear Jordon say "It's a boy." My first thought was "he's kidding because we had thought it would be a boy". Then the nurse said "It IS a boy." My thoughts: "Oh crap. We're screwed. We have no boy things!" After Sam was all weighed and cleaned up. He was handed to me. As Jordon called parents and grandparents to tell them Sam was born no one believed him at first. The doctor told me that this was the first baby she delivered that wasn't what the parents were told it was.<br />
They moved us to a room and got us all situated. We finally got to go to sleep for the night. For the rest of our stay all the new nurses came in saying "Oh you're the ones that were told you were having a girl and got a boy!" We were famous. Sam was my easiest delivery and has so far been my easiest child. Thank goodness for that. He is such a sweety and can always make me smile with his cute smiling face. I love you so much Sam!rachhunt1http://www.blogger.com/profile/01573272303061949437noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959356502996338246.post-52600518520428301062011-05-24T18:55:00.000-07:002011-05-24T18:55:10.402-07:00Teacher AppreciationSo today I spent about 5 hours at a park close to our house. Ethan had a "field trip" to the park by his school to have a field day. They had a bunch of mom's volunteer to plan games for the entire 2nd grade to play. They broke the kids into groups of 6-8 students to rotate through all the games. For ours I made lawn darts out of grocery bags, duct tape, and sand. Thanks Mom for the Family Fun magazine subscription so I would have the instructions on how to make these! Anyway, the kids had about 8 minutes at each station to play the games. In one of the groups was a boy who looked at me and said "You look like a vampire." I was a little shocked since this is not something I have ever been called, but I replied "Thank you" mostly because I didn't really know what else to say. Needless to say I was happy to be done with this by the time we were done. I have quite a bit of appreciation for the teachers at all the schools for having to deal with kids like these everyday for their entire teaching career.rachhunt1http://www.blogger.com/profile/01573272303061949437noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959356502996338246.post-72275802799418706112011-05-18T08:05:00.000-07:002011-05-18T08:05:46.828-07:00The Whole FamilySo after I posted the pictures of the kids, my mom pointed out that Jordon and I weren't in any of them. I guess we are just not as photogenic as our kids are, but here are some family pictures for you to enjoy as well.<br />

I thought I would share my favorites. All my kids didn't do great smiles, but some were still pretty cute. Apparently my kids all thought it was too bright. Ethan only had good smiles that didn't have his evil eyebrows when he was teasing his siblings (like in this first picture). Ashley tended to have a fake cheese smile, but it was still pretty cute. <br />

This has helped them realize that everything has a purpose and reason for living no matter how bothersome. <br />
The other day I was driving in the car with the kids. Driving past a bunch of cows the air filled with the lovely stench of cow poop. The kids always notice this smell and point it out. Of course they started to complain about it again today. Ethan said that he hated cows because they stink so bad. My rebuttal was "but they tasted so good, and milk tastes so good. Without cows we wouldn't have those good tasting foods." I then explained how even though cows poop stinks it also helps plants grow. His response was "then why don't we poop outside?!" All I could do was laugh.rachhunt1http://www.blogger.com/profile/01573272303061949437noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959356502996338246.post-35461270209521446362011-04-29T13:10:00.000-07:002011-04-29T13:10:46.472-07:00Random Little ThingsJust a warning before reading this, these are just some things my kids have done that I don't want to forget. It is a little random. I couldn't really make it flow from one thought to the next. Also farting is mentioned. You have been warned. <br />
I am loving staying home with my kids and I am reminded of that each time my kids say something that just makes me smile (if not laugh a little too). I love listening to them when they think I'm not listening. They can be so animated and imaginative. They can also say just random off the wall things. For instance, yesterday I was driving in the car with my youngest 2 in the back seat. My 3 year old, Sam, talking to his sister, Ashley, says something about farting. That leads into him saying he's going to fart in his dad's face, which leads to him wrestling with dad and spanking dad's butt. That is a big tease threat in my house.<br />
My youngest didn't really have anything he was attached to as a baby until he was probably about 2 years old. Then he became attached to a blanket. This blanket was one that I had made for my nephew about 6 years before that. This blanket was carried everywhere with my son. It was a must. Since it was still a necessity when he turned 3 we took him to the store to pick out some material to make a new one. The old one was worn and holey. He picked some out with Cars characters on it. We went right home and I made the blanket to match the old one. For the first week he carried around both. After that it was right back to the old one again. A few months ago, he discovered a backpack. The best part of this backpack? His blanket could fit right inside, along with other things like all the cars he has decided he needs to take with him too. It has just been the last month that the backpack has been replaced (for now). It has been replaced by a dog backpack/harness leash. Because we don't use the leash (although some times we should) we take it off so he doesn't just drag it around. Most days he wears this dog around constantly. Of course it has a small pocket on the back to stick cars in too. We recently had family pictures done and he started sobbing as soon as we shut the door to the car with puppy locked inside. Needless to say the photographer had to hold puppy the entire time she took pictures. At least there has been progress in all this. For the moment there is no more need for blanky. Now if we could have that same progress with his older sister and her blanky.<br />
Along with the "need" for the puppy backpack my youngest has also decided that he can only wear pants with pockets. This doesn't make much sense because most days he doesn't put a single thing in them all day. Yet he still refuses to wear pants without pockets. <br />
All of our kids have piggy banks. They look like pigs hence the piggy name. Of course, my daughter calls them penny banks. I guess that makes some sense too though because they have pennies in them too.<br />
She also calls Pokemon "Pokebon" and will sing the theme song using her word.<br />
About a month after we got our new car, my oldest was saying how he hated the new car. I told him he better not, it would probably be the car he gets when he starts to drive. He then said he didn't want this car, instead he wants a van. I almost dreaded asking him why, thinking of the reasons a teen would want a van and thinking how this kid was only 8, how does he know about those things?! I asked him why anyway and was surprised with the answer. He wanted a van so all his friends could fit, because our car only fits 5 and a van fits 7! I laughed and said we'd have to see. <br />
I find it funny that kids can come up with interesting ways of saying things. My oldest has always pronounced syrup as "seer-e-up". I was afraid that one day he would say it like most everybody else and I would forget how he said it as a kid. You can imagine my happiness when my youngest now calls it that as well. It looks like that word will go on for a bit longer in this house.rachhunt1http://www.blogger.com/profile/01573272303061949437noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959356502996338246.post-63285686825763397712011-04-26T20:19:00.000-07:002011-04-26T20:19:05.454-07:00UpdateSo I have neglected this blog for long enough. I haven't posted because I have forgotten about it and before that I didn't think I had anything new to post. So much has happened in the last year though and it seems as if things just keep happening. So here is an update. In the last year we moved from Las Vegas back to Utah. For the first 5 months we stayed at Jordon's mom's house while we got jobs and things settled that way. Then we moved to Tremonton which was closer to work. As of now we have lived here for about 6 months and are for the most part pleased with it. Jordon is now working in Corinne and I am once again a stay at home mom and loving it most days.<br />
We signed our oldest two up for soccer this Spring (or late winter whichever you consider it) and it has brought a few things to light for us. First is that our kids are just not athletic. Our oldest has done the best out of the 2, but he tends to tire pretty quick while playing a regular soccer game. He likes to stay out of the way of the ball and doesn't run around much. He is telling us he wants to play baseball this summer, but I'm not sure he realizes how much running is required for that sport as well.<br />
Our daughter was also signed up for soccer. She was completely stoked about it until we went the first day. We showed up to practice and she clammed right up. Didn't want to play at all now. One of the coaches got her to kick the ball back and forth with him. Then it was game time. She didn't want to play the first period so she sat out with me. The second period she decided she wanted to play so in she went. After about 3 minutes she decided she was done and didn't really play much after that. She hasn't played since or practiced. While fighting her one day to go she was silent and resisting as much as she possibly could. Jordon pointed out to me that maybe she had anxiety over it all. For about 6 months before that I had been working as well and the kids were in daycare. During those 6 months Ashley did not say a single word to any of the adults watching her. In fact if there was an adult around she wouldn't even talk to other kids. After the fight over soccer I decided to look for some info. on this issue and hopefully some answers or ideas of how to fix it. A little amount of time later I found an answer. There is a social anxiety disorder called Selective Mutism where kids will not talk around adults. My daughter is also supposed to start Kindergarten this Fall. I took her to her Kindergarten Assessment and as you guessed it she wouldn't say a word. She even stopped talking for about an hour later that night after we told her dad about it. This is why I am now going to try homeschooling for school this year.<br />
My son struggled during his 1st grade year at school. Towards the end of the school year we started wondering if ADD was the reason. When he started 2nd grade this year the problems continued so we had him tested. We were told what we suspected. He has ADHD. After we were told this his teacher has been super with working with him on it. But where he will be starting a new school year with a different teacher it makes me wonder if we will just be starting over with him and his problems next year too. So that is why I am homeschooling him next year too.<br />
I always told myself that I wouldn't home school my kids because they need the social aspect and because they would drive me crazy, but hopefully they won't drive me crazy and the school I have signed them up with has clubs and activities which they will be participating in. I think they will have more one on one socializing with kids than they do now. I guess we'll see how it all goes. I'm really excited to try it out though.rachhunt1http://www.blogger.com/profile/01573272303061949437noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959356502996338246.post-2638059531237556502010-02-02T16:44:00.000-08:002010-02-02T16:47:04.003-08:00Long overdue UpdateSo I had a few extra minutes of quiet today (and then Ethan got home) so I thought I would take some time to update the blog. Then I realized what a slacker I am when I saw that the last blog was about Christmas. Slacker, slacker, slacker is all I can say.<br />
<br />
We have started out the year with a bang. When we got back to Vegas from Christmas we had pretty much decided that we just weren't making it financially here so something needed to change. I hadn't been able to get a job even after applying at a million places so we were thinking about moving back to Utah. We went to take in our 30 day notice to our apartment management and they told us we would have to pay back to them $4900 in fees for leaving before our contract was up. That was pretty much our deciding factor on staying here at least until June when our contract ends.<br />
<br />
That weekend I got a call from a girl in our ward who was wondering if I was still interested in babysitting for her (in August I had met with her about babysitting, but she decided to use someone else who ended up giving her a notice before Christmas that she needed to find a new babysitter). Of course I was because that would make it possible for me to continue to stay home with the kids. It also works out really nice because she works for the school so she has all the days off that Ethan has off except Staff Development days. Her son is 9 months and is very easy to take care of. I am also still watching a little one year old girl 2 days a week (her mom works with Jordon).<br />
<br />
About a week after I started watching him, Jordon's sister, Lindsey, lost her babysitter for her daughter Avery. She asked me if I would watch her and I of course said yes! My kids are all crazy for her and love talking to her and playing with her when she is awake. She is also just starting to sit up by herself and roll so we have been able to take pictures and video of her doing these new skills so her Mom and Dad won't miss it either. She is also quite an easy baby so it makes it extra nice.<br />

My mom got Jordon and I hooked on reflexology (she had read a book about it and gave us foot rubs each night; it was SOOO Nice!). They also took us to lunch at the Rainforest Cafe where we met up with my aunt and uncle who were also down visiting and my dad's cousin. After lunch we walked the strip to M & M World and down to the Bellagio to see the fountains and the gardens. We had a great time with them and my kids are still talking about how fun it was. We also spent some time at my dad's cousin's house visiting with him and his wife and at the park playing Bocce ball with my parents and sister. Before they left we were also able to fit in a visit to Ethel M.'s Chocolate factory where we didn't see much being made (it was a holiday), but did get a nice sample at the end. We are looking forward to their visit in March when they will be coming with another one of my sisters (Amy) and her family.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

Thank you to all the family who gave him money for his birthday so he could get the thing he wanted most of all: Super Mario Bros. Wii game. He loves it so much and was so excited to be able to buy it with his own money. We told him we would take him to Chuck E. Cheese for his birthday and he wanted to invite a friend, which later turned into 3 friends, so we did a small party on the Sat. after his birthday. We had lunch and fun at Chuck E.'s and then came back to our house for cake and ice cream and opening presents. He had a great time and I was once again reminded that boys just have too much energy. Might have to skip the party next year so I don't go completely insane.</div></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Things are now back to normal for us, as much as they get normal anyway. We just had a friend move away and she was so nice and gave us her king size bed so we now have much better accommadations for guests (hint, hint). She also gave us a computer chair as well that has been so nice since we were using a camp chair before. We have very much enjoyed both and are so grateful to her for being such a sweetheart and great friend to us.</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />

<br />
The Monday before we left we tried to make gingerbread houses out of graham crackers and icing, until the icing wasn't setting up fast enough, and then we tried peanut butter. Needless to say we were able to get them to stand long enough for the kids to decorate them, but not much longer.<br />

We also let each of the kids open one present (presents that we had for them that we didn't want to take with us). They each also got to open a present that some friends had given them too (hats for the boys and a sweater for Ashley).<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;">We stopped at Grandma and Grandpa Felts house that night for Sunday dinner. It was great to see everyone again. After dinner Grandma had some reindeer cookies for the kids to make. Ethan and Ashley made theirs (Sam was being a stinker so Ethan made his) and then they were done. The rest of the kids there kept making cookies for everyone.<br />

Sadly though while there Fergus was let out to go potty and he ran away. We are pretty sure he was the dog that was later taken to the vet after being hit by a truck. He ended up with a broken pelvis and the lady that brought him in said to fix him and if no one claimed him she would take him home. We are hoping he is now being taken care of very well and we miss him terribly. <br />

Later that night (and I mean way later), I was able to go into Thermo Fisher and see all my friends there. It was so fun to see them all again and catch up on the things going on in their lives. (This picture was from before our trip. The kids put a blanket on Fergus while he was laying on the couch.)<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2XoZns5pulUV3zwlK07HbLI38jxvdyuDbaS2h3hwNBYjaioXJOgyXJGZcunqI4XYogS2qzKyu-PFrNFg4yF_x7TshUSJ1YdBYkgYBdqwfrWfVqSp5EMSyl20wAkrA7bn3LbAzwocByaLC/s1600-h/DSCN4918.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" ps="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2XoZns5pulUV3zwlK07HbLI38jxvdyuDbaS2h3hwNBYjaioXJOgyXJGZcunqI4XYogS2qzKyu-PFrNFg4yF_x7TshUSJ1YdBYkgYBdqwfrWfVqSp5EMSyl20wAkrA7bn3LbAzwocByaLC/s320/DSCN4918.JPG" /></a><br />

While we were there we got to see Jake and Alisa (Dave's son and daughter-in-law) and their cute family and catch up with them. Their oldest is 3 years old so Sam and Ashley had a hayday playing with their new friend.<br />

I guess that's the way December always seems, so busy. First of all, Ethan came home with a note after Thanksgiving saying he had failed his vision screening at school so we needed to take him in to have his eyes checked. I was not too thrilled since he is only 6 (almost 7) and I was thinking he was going to need glasses. I got my first glasses in Middle School and Jordon just got his first pair last year so I thought the genes were starting even earlier. Ethan had his dr. appointment on Friday and I was quite relieved to hear that although his vision isn't quite 20/20 he really didn't need glasses. The dr. said it was up to us, if he had been complaining about eye problems then to get them, if not then not to get them. Of course, we decided to go without them (for now, pretty sure he will eventually need them). I was very relieved that we wouldn't have to deal with that right now.<br />
</div><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">Yesterday we celebrated Jordon's birthday. He spent the day getting new tires on the van (fun birthday activity huh?) so that we can be safe when we go up next weekend and then spent the other half of the day working on a wood bunk bed set that was given to us. I'm so thankful to have a handy husband! But a few days before his birthday he got a birthday present early. He got a male Min Pin dog. Fergus (Ethan picked the name) was given to us by a guy that had Fergus show up at his house. He couldn't find the owner so we got Fergus. The kids were a little hesitant at first (especially Ashley), but they all love him so much now. Ashley for the first few days wouldn't get of furniture because she was afraid of Fergus, but even she now has gotten over her fear (and I mean scream bloody murder fear) and loves letting Fergus lay on her blankets. Fergus is such a good dog. He is a total lover although he craves attention. If you sit down anywhere he will try to sit by you and cuddle up next to you licking your hands until you pet him. Sam loves letting him lick his hands and tells him "good boy" almost constantly. Fergus is pretty good with sitting when told and we love making him jump for his biscuits.

The kids have made chains to countdown to Christmas and they are counting down days to the 18th when we leave to our first Grandma and Grandpa's house. Looking forward to snow too. Only rain at our house so far.<br />

This year we spent Thanksgiving here in Las Vegas with Jordon's sister, Lindsey, and her family and his Mom and Step Dad. It was a quiet dinner for the most part since Sam fell asleep on the way to Lindsey's and stayed asleep once we got there. After dinner we hung out and watched football and then later watched "Four Christmases" which was hilarious.<br />
<br />
The weekend before Thanksgiving though we actually had some family pictures taken. Here are a few of my favorites for you all to enjoy!<br />

Also last night the kids and I spent some time decorating some Christmas cookies. I think this is the kids' favorite activity since they always request it if I give them an option of which kind of cookies to make. Here are some pictures from that activity.<br />

</div><div class="" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;">(I know this post is a little late, but I didn't even take any pictures and I wanted to post about this weekend when I had pictures. I finally remember to ask Jordon's dad for the pictures they took so here are some of them.) We were lucky to have Jordon's dad and his wife come visit us one weekend in Oct. The kids were so excited to see them when they showed up and surprised them. That same weekend we were invited to a birthday party of the daughter of a co-worker of Jordon's. At the party they had a lady who made these balloons and also did face painting. Ethan picked a purple plane. Ashley had a pink cat. And Sam got a purple dinosaur. They were all so cool.<br />
