4 Months Old

Yesterday Ezra turned 4 months old and to celebrate he got shots. He did really well and actually did not really cry, it was more of a wimper. He is such a nice boy! His percentiles dropped from 97th to 90th for length and 75th for height. He is still a big boy though. He also had his first sampling of cereal and once he realized it was food he was all about it! Look at all that on his spoon and most of it did not make it in is mouth. Looks like I need to adjust from feedng a three-year-old.

Happy Birthday...to me??

Wednesday friends surprised me with a little birthday dinner before we leave for Logan. I thought it was a bit suspicious when Ryan was getting ultra ambitious about planning the date but I figured I should just let him do it. We had a great dinner and it was quite a surprise. Thanks you guys, I feel really blessed to have such good friends and we will miss you while we are away!

My cute cousin!

I added Kelsey's Kitchen to my links on the side. Kelsey is my super cute cousin and TV food personality. Her website has some great recipes that are really yummy and fast too. So be sure to check it out. We got to see Kelsey last week when she came to Phoenix for a visit with her handsome friend. Right now she is in L.A. going to culinary school and working on all of her fun and exciting projects. We love you Kelsey!

Taking a Break...Finally!

The Friday before last Ryan finished his last Board exam and was able to take a real break. That means no thoughts of school lurking in the back and waiting for us at home to spoil the relaxation. At first we wanted to go to Rocky Point, Mexico but we decided we were not up for a drive since we are heading to Utah for July. So we just took the short 20-minute drive to Scottsdale and stayed at the Kierland Resort and Spa for a few days. The resorts in Phoenix have some good specials right now because summer is a bit of a down time for the year due to the heat. We had a great time!! Trevi discovered goggles and now she is an amazing swimmer for being 3, which is great with having pool in the backyard. The goggles gave her the confidence boost she needed and she is getting plenty of practice. Ezra loved being in his little floaty, but the boy is so white I didn't let a speck of sun get on him! Now Ryan is on to the second part of medical school which is more hands-on and less head-in-the-book. He starts his first rotation with Dr. McKenna, a pediatrician in Logan, and then we will be back in August for the rest!

New Skills

My children are impressing me more everyday and reminding me that they get bigger and smarter all the time. Two days ago I left Ezra on the floor for some tummy time and went to help Trevi with something for like 30 seconds. When I walked back in the room he was on his back! He rolled over and I missed it. So I put him back on his tummy and he rolled to the other side. He is like an old pro at this rolling over thing. Now when ever I leave him on the floor on his back he can move all around the floor,he will be rolling to his tummy before I know it. Trevi is also becoming a great swimmer. The other day she almost swam the whole length of the pool! She has done this in less than two weeks too. I can't believe how big they are, they really do grow too fast.
