Each month I didn't update the blog, it became easier and easier to NOT update it. Then, we debated whether or not we should just call it a day. While I'm not taking that possibility off the table, we thought we'd give it one last chance to keep going. After all, it's been more than seven years since we started this and even if I am the only one who looks at it, I'll still try to do it for me. That being said, here's what you missed.
in
february, we got a puppy. we also celebrated the boys birthdays.
in
march, john and i celebrated our eighth anniversary
in
april, my parents came to visit and we also purchased a honda pilot (the 6th car we've owned since we've been married!). we also celebrated john's 35th birthday.
in
may, we started the renovation on one of our bathrooms, van finishes up preschool and i worked a million hours.
june was a bit of a blur as peanut joins the family and we get a lot less sleep. john and van go to a first baseball game (Salt Lake Bees). we get used to being a family of five (and a dog).
in
july, boston cousins come to visit. van learns to ride a bike without training wheels. van and noah do swimming lessons.
august starts with a trip for me and the boys to cali to see family, friends and the beach. we also camped in the backyard, finally finished the bathroom shower, take the boys to play tennis for the first time, paint the exterior of our home, and
van starts school (yes, we have a kindergartner!).
and that's the roundup. hopefully i can keep up from here on out.
