It's Been A Busy Month

The last few weeks have been crazy. So much has happened in our family. I don't think the month of June is ever going to be a quiet month for our family. The month started with Karlyn joining our family. Three kids has been an adjustment, but a lot of fun. I feel like Karlyn has been part of our family for longer than three weeks.

Three days after she was born, Conrad turned 4! He had a great day. Jeremy and him made a Cars cake and went to Leo's for dinner. Conrad loves Leo's because he gets to eat his favorite food, pizza, and play arcade games. I am glad Jeremy was able to take the day off and help make Conrad's birthday a fun day, since I wasn't really in the mood to be out of bed.
Three days after Conrad's birthday, my parents were set apart as Mission president and missionaries. I was a little sad I couldn't be there, but Jeremy had a great time. He got to meet Elder Oaks and Elder Snow of the seventy and be apart of a special moment.

Two days later, the entire family came to Idaho Falls and spent the week hanging out and having fun. Conrad and Tyler had the time of their lives. It was especially fun seeing David and his family who live so far away. (Hopefully we will get to see them sometime during the next three years.) During the week, we finally had Conrad's birthday party. He got to play with his cousins at Blast-off and do a pinata when we got home.

This last Tuesday night I said good-bye to my parents and on Wednesday they entered the MTC. I am going to miss them so much, but I know they are going to do a great job. The missionaries they will be serving are so lucky! It will probably be two years be for we make it out to Nova Scotia, but I can't wait. It will be a fun trip.

Well, our month still hasn't ended, and it is still so busy. This Saturday Tyler turns 2! I also forgot to tell you that Tyler has even made our month more exciting by falling off a stool and hurting his teeth. One tooth turned 90 degrees and another got pushed out of place. We are just hoping they survive, especially since he hit them again the other night while standing on a toy looking out the window. He fell off the toy and knocked his teeth against the window seal.

Well, hopefully nothing more exciting happens this month. I think I have had all I can handle for the month. Maybe, July will be a little more quite and peaceful.

yes, definitely a crazy month. I love the picture of Karlyn. She looks older than 3 weeks in that picture. Now, could you get control of Tyler so he won't be completely toothless before he is three. poor guy, I hope his teeth do survive.

That does sound like a huge, busy month! She is adorable! My mom and dad said that your parents had been called but couldn't remember where...Nova Scotia sounds so fun!
