2007 in a Nutshell

This past year has been eventful! First of all our third little bundle, joined us on March 26th. He came at quite a busy time. Tyler was studying for his last set of boards, and left for Oregon to take them when Jack was only 2 weeks. The next week Tyler and I drove out to Oklahoma, with our 3 week old, to look for a place to live. We had been researching the area for quite some time, and were looking at some of the places that looked good on the Internet, which we found in person to be quite disappointing. We only found 1 house the we liked, it needed a little TLC but was in our price range but was under contract. We left disappointed, but our realtor called us a few days later to let us know the sale fell through.
So we made an offer and after some negotiating our offer was accepted. Just a few weeks later our family traveled up to Oregon for Tyler's graduation from Optometry school. This I think was HUGE!! He worked so hard and I am so proud of him. Tyler was too modest and tried to tell me it would be too hard for me to try and sit through his graduation by myself with 3 kids. Which did have it's challenges but lucky for me I have great friends there with great in laws that helped me with the kids made it possible see him graduate!!
Just two short weeks after graduation Tyler had to go off to COT (comissioned officer training) for 5 weeks. I was lucky enough to be invited to live with my brother Josh and his wife Stacie and their two cute little girls. Might I add this was in their beautiful new home they had just moved into 3 weeks prior. I was very grareful and hope they didn't get too sick of me. We thoroughly enjoyed staying there and I appreciated the help I received from them and many other family members while Tyler was away. I don't how I could have done it without you all so thank you!!
Then in July we made our move to Oklahoma. I was not looking forward to this at all. But we have enjoyed our new home and have enjoyed doing some projects around the house which include, ripping out a wood deck/patio and replacing in by installing pavers to make a new patio, ripping down"really pretty" wall paper in a bathroom and bedroom and painting, and we just finished laying tile in our laundry room.
As for the kids Sydney goes to the Pre-K program at the elementary school, she is also involved in dance and gymnastics. She loves going to school and have enjoyed seeing Sydney grow in her confidence and independence and to meet new friends.
Layton is still all boy and enjoys playing anything that involves a ball,and also enjoys playing super hero spider man, or superman, and most recently plays "super dad".
Jack is our little wiggle worm,which started when he was born and hasn't stopped since. he started scooting around at 5 months and army crawling at 6 months and full blown crawling just shy of 8 months. holding still for him only happens when he is sleeping or eating, and sometimes not even then. He is so playful and fun, and love is play peek-a-boo and trying to keep up with Syd, and Layton.
