Our First Post

Yeah! We are part of the information super highway (thanks to our sister in law Tammy :) ) Welcome to our spot! Our family is busy and growing.

Christopher is still working FT at Smiths in Provo. He is taking the summer off of school and will continue next fall. He has changed his major to History in hopes of eventually becoming a history professor at a university. We would like to move to Texas while he teaches at the middle school/high school level in a few years. He is hoping to graduate in 3 years with his BA.
Valerie is back at Hogi Yogi after taking time off with baby Kate. She now goes in at 5:30 instead of 4 and works 6 mornings a week making sure that all 18 SLC Hogi Yogis get the correct order everyday, doing cleanup, etc. Valerie is also busy chasing kids...of course and loving every minute of it.

Dallin is growing right up! He is 21 mo old now, but we have already hit the terrible 2s! He has started nursery and can make it half way through it without mom. All of the sudden he has started talking up a storm and acting all grown up. Our favorite words and phrases are "Where's Moe?" (from DoodleBops), "scriptures", and "I did that!" He got his first set of 4 stitches in June when he jumped from a 5 ft concrete platform at the city park and landed on his chin. He is definitely our little daredevil.

Kate is 2 1/2 months old now and weighs 11 whole pounds! She is our sweet pea and loves to be held and smile. She will even coo and babble every once in a while. She has now officially rolled over from front to back (although our pediatrician is convinced that Dallin in fact rolled her over.)
So, we are planning on updating our blog frequently with pictures and family events, so be sure to check back often and drop us a line!
