Dancing BooBear

Great-Grandkids

Werty's extended family was in town for the a double baptism on Saturday - the second from the left in the front was one of those baptized. We didn't know about the baptisms until 12 hours prior, so had to miss the family luncheon because Werty had already agreed to drive my cousin to SLC that day. Us leaving the baptism early also messed up their plan to get a pic of the great-grand kids together, so we gathered briefly Saturday evening to take this pic. The little two month old is Squeebee, my newest nephew.

Time for Winter Coats

or why we need a house with a yard. Werty's sister Dawn is the other person in the video. My bro-in-law took this video on his iPhone. Thanks for the winter coat Grammy!

Left on my board...

Yesterday a student wrote, "There ain't no party like an IB party cause an IB party don't...crap never mind I have homework."

Which House?

We looked at and made an offer on a second house on Saturday. Which would you choose if you were at our stage of life?

Small house with a big yard.
Big house with a small yard.

I will try to post a more in-depth comparison later.

Boo's Friend

There is a little girl at church that likes to share her snacks with the other kids. (She has an older sister.) Today she was sharing her cereal with BooBear. At one point, she even shoved the piece of cereal in his mouth when he wasn't taking it fast enough. So, naturally, he started following her around. Her cereal was a combination of sugar cereals - so much better than the cereal I had for him. At one point, he reached out his arms like he was going to hug her, and he leaned in like he was going to kiss her. Werty and I looked at each other, 'What is he doing?' But he didn't. Maybe he was trying to hug her. Maybe he just wanted her to give him more cereal. After Sunday School, I was told by one observer, "Your son is hilarious."

Some of the cereal must have had rice flour in it, sigh, because his cheeks are now a little splotchy and he was itching one of his ears - but I thought it was worth the risk to help him learn to share. He has been much more interested in interacting with other kids lately. He's growing up so fast! >sniffle<

BooBear has also discovered the Piano. He likes to sit on our lap and play, flipping the pages in the primary song book now and then. Then he plays with the different buttons that change the sound of the keys.

By Request

We have been taking more video than actual photos with our camera lately. Werty's been trying to catch him at his new trick - dancing to music. I will post a video once we're successful.

I woke him up from his nap, so he'd go to bed at a decent hour. Here he is five minutes later.
