An Update!

Well, things are going well! We are living a my parents house (in that ol' familiar trailer), and continuing to wait on the Lord to work everything out for us moving.

Unfortunately we are not able to have daily access to a computer, hence my not updating with pictures and blogs.

Jason is loving it up here, but we have been needing to regulate his excursions on motor vehicles...meaning quads and motorcycles. Poor Jonathan is constantly in demand for a ride, but I can't really take him during the day, so that is just what needs to be done!

Jonathan has been having quite the time of his life down at the lake. After fishing down there off of logs, and losing tons of lures, the boys (meaning my cousins Micah & Josh, brother Sam, Jonathan and his brother Timothy) decided to go scuba diving to find lures..and they have made quite alot of conquests! I had the opportunity with Izzy to snag one of their masks and snorkels, and it was so cool!! This lake is littered with hundreds of fallen logs, and apparently 3 people have died, and the local rumor is that the bodies were never recovered....oohh...scary! I can understand why though. Getting snagged on a log is always a posibility...which is why I stayed on the surface except for once, when I found my first fishing lure!!! YAAY!

Tyler is almost walking now :) He stands up straight from the floor and it is so funny to watch him do it! He walks around furniture, and crawls SO fast, but so far he just doesn't deem walking a necessary action.
He waves "Bye" and "Hi", and says "Bye" too! He says "Momma", and "Dadda", but it is few and far between when you can get him to say them. His favorite noise to make is this low-chest grunt that is SO funny! Jason said the other day, "Mommy, I heard Tyler, and he said, 'Uhh.' ", to which he did an exact immitation of Tyler's grunt...so cute!!!

I spend my days doing motherly things, such as cleaning, dishes, laundry, and keeping my cuties out of grandma's hair :) We usually stay in the trailer until lunch when daddy comes home for a bit...then we play outside, then take naps, then visit grandma and all the kids until daddy come home from work.
My latest venture is doing cloth-diapers for Tyler. It is SO much fun!!! They are a new fangled thing called "all-in-one pockets", these ones are specifically called fuzzi-bunz. They have fleece that goes against baby's bottom, and poly-urethane laminat (PUL) on the outside which is soft too. You put an insert in the pocket between the two fabrics. Its not all lumpy like the classic cloth-diapers...and they are so easy to snap closed! Saving money has never felt so good! ;)

I'll post pictures as soon as I can, but its dificult these days because of computers. I'll make it work soon though!
