Western Cutie Pie

Out in the Basin they have a celebration every year called UBIC. This year, I decided to enter Kyler into the Baby Contest just for fun (after all---my kid is the CUTEST right?) The contest said he could wear ANYTHING western. I couldn't decide exactly how to dress him... but this is what we ended up with. Unfortunately Kyler was tired and was REALLY cranky for the judges... so he didn't win---but we still think he is the CUTEST COWBOY in the West! :)

I'll Do it Myself!

So a few nights ago, I was making dinner for Deric's family and we were having this noodle dish with spaghetti noodles and vegetables. I put some in a blender for Kyler and asked Deric to feed him while I finished getting it ready for everyone else. The phone rang and Deric answered it. While he was talking on the phone....this is what I found.... Deric had left Kyler's food right in front of him and Kyler was helping himself. He was scooping up the green mush with his hand and SHOVING it into his mouth. It was really quite comical. We let him eat the rest of his dinnder that way for sure-and of course BATH TIME was after! You may also notice that Kyler's food is in a BIRD DISH! I had NO IDEA what it was and it was up by the bowls in the cupboard-so I figured it was just a dish of some sort. It worked. Deric made fun of me SO bad! If you know how I feel about animals----you will understand.

WeMade it! ALIVE!

Well it's true folks-we made it to Roosevelt alive and after 3 days of living here...I'm still alive, but only barely! :) I miss my friend, Sidnee, and her kids alot from West Jordan but am enjoying being able to spend a lot of time with Deric's little sister, Aisha. Deric has started his job working for Basin Wholesale and I'm currently just at home working on getting things organized. Deric's mom and little brother have been working at High Uintah and so they haven' t been home-therefore Aisha and I are trying to take care of the house....and let me say....it is a task! Kyler's room was not cleaned out when we got here, so we're working on that and the whole house basically needs to be DEEP cleaned! But Deric and I are looking for a house and have found some good ones, we're just looking for the right one! So keep your fingers crossed, hopes up high and spirits even higher that I can make it living in the Basin and that we can find a decent, well priced house!!!!

Last few days...

These next few days are my last few days of the city... .we're moving this SATURDAY! WAHOO! :)
