Back in Utah
So much has happened in the past four months that I'm not even sure where to begin. Dave's internship ended the first week of January, and he looked all over the Portland Metro area for a new job. About the first week of February he added Utah to his job hunt. The week of Valentine's Day Dave flew to Salt Lake City and interviewed with 13 companies in 3 days. We accepted one of four offers and packed up the truck to move back to Provo on February 22nd. It's good to be back among friends... but we both really miss Oregon.
We found a great little house (thank you Craig's List!) for which we signed a rent-to-own contract. The girls have adjusted well, though they still refer to my parent's home as "their house" and our current home as "their NEW house."
Kathryn is now learning her ABC's. She's able to recognize most letters by sight, but so far the sounds are still quite confusing for her. Danielle has started counting and loves to sing constantly... she also continues to insist on nursing at least 6 times during the day and throughout the night. Christine is sleeping 12 hours at night, only waking once to nurse about 11pm. (What did I do differently this time and how can I get my toddler & pre-schooler to sleep that well?!?!?!?!?) She also cut her first two teeth at four months and three days... beating Danielle by almost a month, and Kathryn by three months.
That's the update for now, I've been working on many of my 101/1001 goals, but most are taking quite a while and are not being completed as quickly as I would like... oh well... back to work. :)

In case you don't recall, we met & chatted a bit at a playdate at Kristin's house in January. I had a son named Draeksley in December.
Anyway, I just thought I'd pop in & say hi & that you're missed over here! :)
