Moving On Again

 Here are my silly kiddos at our apartment in Provo. The one we don't live at anymore.







Here is a beautiful beach in California that we were supposed to visit with Jeremy the weekend before we moved (while he attended a business conference).

Here is the one who got rather sick (cold, fever, brand new tooth) and kept us from making the Trek to California. Glad to miss the 10-hr drive each way, sad to miss seeing friends and the balmy coastal weather.

Here is the big girl that finally traded in her pacifiers for a toy. It was not as cool as the toy(s) mommy would have picked out, but she was very excited. She was not quite as excited about the trade within a few hours, and still has a hard time figuring out how to get to sleep without those paci's...
Here are the kiddos trying to make the best of an almost empty apartment and hours upon hours of packing and cleaning.
Here are the reunited friends. The last time they all saw each other was over a year and a half ago. They had a fun afternoon together, though, and Daddy was very excited to leave us in St. George for a bit and drive on with "the stuff" in our van after spending the morning packed into a Cavalier with two whiny toddlers and a screaming baby...

There are no pictures of the rest of the trip. It is probably just as well, though we did have some excellent barbecue in Las Vegas, and were excited to have 3 of the 4 grandparents drive all the way there to help us get all of our worldly possessions (and our kids) back into the great state of Arizona. Now all I have to say is, "80º in February?" Really, Arizona? I think we must be crazy to move back here... ;-)

On the Verge

Of causing some serious havoc! Katy wants to move so badly, and is constantly rocking up on to her knees (or faceplanting with the effort) and trying to climb things. Especially me, while I'm trying to feed her on the floor. I can't wait for a high chair! She is going to cause as much trouble as she possibly can, I can tell. She was pretty sick the last few days with congestion, fever, coughing, etc. and I think I finally figured out she had a nasty cold on top of trying to cut her second tooth. (It came through yesterday). The rest of us are getting a milder version of that cold, but I'm still hopeful for some better sleep in the next few nights. Before we move to a different state, (again) that is, later on this week. She is feeling much better though, and back to her usual tricks of trying to get her little body moving so she can get into trouble!
