Exciting Week

This week has been an exciting and a tear jerking one so far, and it is only Wednesday. Both of my boys are growing up, and begining to explore the world on their own.

Yesterday I get a phone call at work from Sean with him telling me that Carson went potty. Sean is the only person that Carson will go potty for. I have mixed feelings because I know Carson is my last baby and I won't be changing anymore diapers EVER!!! WOOHOO!!! Then again Carson is my last baby, and I won't be changing anymore diapers ever. Also, my 10 year old son is potty training him. I haven't figured if it is a good thing or a bad thing, but it is working for everyone in this household.

Today I sent Sean away to Salt Lake City on an airplane all by himself. He is going to be spending the week with Scott's parents (Papa and Nana), and three of his cousins that are his age. They all have the weekend planned with going to Indiana Bones at the Desert Star theater. I was kind of having anxiety with having Sean away from me for almost a week, but Scott told me to suck it up. So sucking it up it is. He called me this evening to let me know that he got to Salt Lake safe and sound, then he asked to talk to Carson. He didn't want to talk to anyone but his little brother. I love the way they adore each other.

Carly has also been a huge help. Her favorite thing to do this summer is going to the pool. I love Washington City because everytime we go swimming Carly always finds a friend to swim and play on the waterslide with, and I am able to keep a better eye on Carson. She is looking forward to going to Salt Lake next week with one of her best friends Wyatt. We are going to be going to Lagoon, Raging Waters and the zoo. I think we are all counting down the days when we arrive on our mini vacation.

I wish I had pictures for this post, but I always forget to bring my camera. Next time I will do better. I am still trying to figure out how to change the layout on my blog as well. I am sure I will get to it eventually.

Here in Washington, Utah they just built the biggest rec center in Utah. I am so stoked because it is walking distance from my house. I will let the pictures describe how much fun this place is. It is the biggest aquatic center in Utah!! I love how Sean and Carly can go swimming or climb the climbing rock or play basketball and I know they are safe. If you ever come to Saint George I highly recommend playing here, and the best part is you will probably see me!!!


I have came to realize that I really need to make more time for blogging. The weather has been awesome here in Saint George, and we have been taking advantage of the great weather. After living here for 9 years I love the 100 degree weather, and there are times when I wonder how I survived walking back and forth to Indian Hills middle school in the cold snow. Finally, school is out and 100 degree weather is here!!!


Sean just graduated from elementary school!!! Here in Saint George sixth grade is considered middle school. He now will be taking a bus to the biggest school I have ever seen, and he will be having seven teachers. He decided that he is going to take orchestra and playing the cello. I can't believe my baby is growing up. Sean is almost taller than I am and his feet are bigger then mine. Last weekend we were in Arby's and I mentioned it was cold in there and Sean gave me his sweatshirt. I guess wearing a Ryan Schekler sweatshirt in the middle of summer is the IN thing now. I dont get it, but it helped me out and we wear the same sweat shirt size.
