The Update as of Today.

Our Updates

Terrell: Terrell recently got offered a job as a building security officer for BYU. He begins paperwork and training next week. He is also starting a painting job at his Grandma's house this week. He is one hard worker and we love him for taking such good care of us! He recently got a dent in his super awesome mountain bike that scratched the paint; this makes for one unhappy Terrell! On the bright side though, he got new handle-bar tape for his road bike, and new biking gloves - he looks even more official now! Hopefully, he'll be able to do a race this summer. He also turned 25 on June 12! WOW! A quarter of a century old! :) He had his favorites for his bday breakfast: mountain dew and waffles w/ice cream (and sprinkles)...see the last pic on this post!

Kellie: I still have mono which will hopefully be gone SOON! I'm ready to be done with it! I also have major back problems as of lately - I threw out my back yesterday pretty bad and I think that I'm just destined to have something wrong with me at all times! :) I've been working on my show choir camp, Music in Motion, which is in about 4 weeks and I'm real excited about that!

Lexi: Lexi is just over 4 months now! I can't believe she's already at 4 months! She had her checkup yesterday. She weighs 10 lbs 9 oz which is still in the about 0% but it's really good for her! She is 23.5 inches long. Also, the doctor said that she is stronger and smarter than the average 4 month old which made us feel pretty good! :) She does have slightly cross-eyed eyes, and so she has to go see the optometrist tomorrow to get that checked out before it gets worse. Also, her head circumference is not what it should be, yet it's perfectly proportional, and so they're concerned about that - in 2 weeks we have to take her to get her head measured again and if it doesn't improve, we take her to Primary Children's Hospital to get a head/brain CT scan. The are 3 reasons that could factor in: 1. Brain isn't growing like it should which the doctor says is not likely since she is so smart and advanced 2. Plates in skull are closing too soon, which is a slight possibility or 3. She just has a small head :) We'll see in 2 weeks! Other than that, she's as silly as can be and the wiggliest baby I know! We love her so much! And she's sooo dang cute! She loves to do "Super Lexi" where you hold her up like she's flying (see picture below)!

Family: We had our first garage sale a few weekends ago and it went better than planned! We made about $90 which is WAY better than expected!! We also gave a TON of stuff to DI and we still have more to give....major spring cleaning! We also attended the Monavie Convention in SLC at the Salt Palace - let's just say, I didn't like Monavie and that whole deal and now I'm SOLD. I didn't realize how awesome of a business this was until just recently. I can't really think of anything else right now....so enjoy the pictures!

Lexi's First Swim

A few weekends ago, we went swimming with our best friends, the Cornia's. It was Lexi's first time at the pool, as well as Cayden's and it was a blast! Lexi didn't really like the water much though. We're not sure if she actually didn't like the pool or if it was because she was feeling sick. We're going swimming with the Cornia's again soon, so we'll see!

Us at the pool :)
Lexi is "tanning" with Daddy!
"Daddy, I'm not so sure about this..."
Rachelle and Cayden :)
Our little tannin' baby!

Testing the waters....
I don't think she likes it much!

Mono Rx

So, since I have mono...again...my Dad (aka Dr. Daddy) prescribed my Rx:

"Eat more cookies."

well said, Dr. Daddy.

Just throw us in the garbage can

cuz we're a sick family.

Lexi, along with her acid reflux and allergies, has a bronchial infection and possibly asthma. If her infection doesn't get better by the end of the week, it's back to the doctor we go because it's probably a sinus infection as well.

I hope all my kids aren't like that or else I'll be dead by the time I'm 30!

Terrell has wicked allergies. Poor guy! Sniffles sniffles!

I don't know what's wrong with me and neither do the doctors...as usual. They thought I had ovarian cysts and/or gall bladder disease but those came back negative, so we're back to square one there. I also was told today at the doctor that I have a lot of back strain from pregnancy/labor and carrying Lexi around all the time. I also found out today I have minor scoliosis. Yay. Oh, and thanks Lexi for the bronchial infection. :)

Just throw is in the garbage can!

Entrepreneur

Can I just say entrepreneurship is in my blood???

I love it. I'm addicted to being an entrepreneur.

Some say that you can teach someone to be an entrepreneur. That may be somewhat true, but I think you're born with that gene.
