Attempting Weekly Updates

Jon is back to work full time again.  He worked for about a week or two on the road, then this past week he is working a day time, Monday thru Friday job in Ogden called the The Little Mountain Local where he goes out to GSL Salt every day by the Great Salt Lake and picks up salt cars and drops off empties.  Doesn't sound too big, but it takes him 10-12 hours a day.  We like that it is a set schedule so we have weekends off together.  

We have a new lady in Roy watching the kids.  She has two dogs and the kids love going there, mainly because. Of the dogs.  One's name is Roxy and Noah loves having quiet time with her.  The kids are having a little bit of a hard time adjusting to Jon working full time, so they have been really whiny in the evenings and in the morning before going to daycare.  The other day, Tayton was whining and saying "no doggies, I just want daddy!"  Over and over again.  Noah finally looked at her and said, "Tater, someone has to watch is!"  Almost annoyed like she should know they can't stay home alone.  Very cute!  

Today's laugh is we're all hanging out in the bedroom while Jon is trying on a bunch of clothes someone have him.  Jon holds up one shirt and says, "there a naked chick on this shirt."  Upon my inspection, it is a scantily clad woman and then Noah asked to see and tells Jon, "That's not a  naked chicken!"  We laughed.  

Noah and Tayton love talking on FaceTime with Jon when he's on the road.  Beezer and Dana sent a cute little Valentine to the kids, so when we got it, we called them up on FaceTime.  The kids loved it and we got to teach the Devlin's about some new features on their iPad.  We need to get Grandma hooked up on some video call feature.  If any of you have FaceTime, feel free to call. The kids love it, but you will get a little seasick from the kids jostling the phone around and arguing about who gets to hold it.  

Noah got to go to the Firestation for preschool.  He had a great time and got to bring home a plastic fireman hat.  

Last week, we went to went to Party Essentials for Tayton's birthday.  The kids both got to build an animal.  Way fun.  Noah made a black dog named "Black" and Tayton chose to build a kangaroos named "Roo."  I have also attached a pic from the Valentine get together as well as a video of our favorite after dinner activity.  Whenever we turn on music, they dance and tell me to turn it up loud.  Lots of fun!!
