I am about to fill out the paperwork to start our homestudy! I am already a nervous wreck! Last night I found a cup of milk and leftover Ravioli and peached in the pantry!! I will be a little scatter brained through this entire process but hopefully it will be painless! Juven is in Salt Lake City today and Seattle tomorrow. He is spoiled with the warm weather here and tired of the cold! More to come!!

Luke has changed so much this last month since turning 5. It's no secret that he has slept with us since he was a baby. But- he has gotten really big and keeps us up at night and I knew it was time to work on him sleeping in his own room. So- we redid his room for him and made a big deal about him being 5 and being a big boy now & talked up how his buddies sleep in their own rooms. So we finally convinced him & have been successful with no one being tramatized! I am so proud of him!! He is also such a sponge & we really have to be careful about what we talk about in front of him and what is on the TV when he is in the room. I have always been careful of those things but now even more.

I was picking him up from school the other day and he likes to go in the infant room to see the babies and my friend Karen who is the teacher. He told Karen we were getting a baby and she asked him if he wanted a brother or sister and he replied he would be happy with whatever God gave us. So precious!

Another accomplishment for him is that he finally went to the gym kid play area! He is known to not to anywhere without me especially a place he has never been before. I have been running a lot but decided to join the gym with my friend Heather to take my workouts up a knotch. I told him he was going to get to do rock climbing and play basketball and play with Evan, Heather's youngest and he said, OK! Usually there is resistance but he did great! He ran right in with Evan and had a blast! YEAH!
