Father's Day

Happy Father's Day (late)! We have had a sick house this weekend. Kyle was sick from Thursday to Monday and I was sick Sunday. We stayed home from church and stayed home from Father's Day celebration at my parents so we didn't spread the joy. Mary made slider cupcakes this weekend for Michael and gave some to us. Kyle loved them! He ate two of them and didn't return them, so that was good. I took some pictures of him eating them. They were really cute with lots of frosting.Henry is at scout camp and returns later today, then he has another scout camp Friday - Saturday. He isn't feeling well right now, hopefully he isn't coming down with what Kyle and I had!

Chore Chart for Kyle

I made a chore chart for Kyle this week. Right now we will do easy things that he is supposed to be doing anyways (ie prayers, scriptures, brushing his teeth, makeing his bed, getting dressed). When he get used to it we will add a few new ones that are easy like setting the table. And we will have a reward system so he can earn toys and meals out for doing his chores.

Poor kid is sick right now, infact he is napping as I type this. He woke me up at 3:30am needing to go potty. He had diareah and threw-up, he has had diareah all day. I am trying to keep him hydrated with water and gaterade.

I also made a birthday cake yesterday for a friends daughter from church. To see the picture you can go to my cake blog, the link is on the left hand side. I get to make another wedding cake for saturday too. I will post those pictures also on the cake blog saturday after I the wedding.

Wild Weather!

We have had a week of wild weather. It all started last Sunday with a tornado warning pretty much lasting the whole day. And every day since then we have had severe thunderstorms with a heavy hailing on Wednesday. My flowers are officially dead now by the way. This will be the first year our flowers don't survive and it isn't because of me! Then today there was a funnel cloud that delayed the Rockies game for an hour.


Kyle has enjoyed the rain though. He loves to get on his rain boots, and it is usually cold so he will put on his jacket too. He will go out and play in the gutters or play in the backyard. What a goof ball! For the record, he totally dressed himself.

Wedding Cake and The Goose (Again)

This week I was consumed with making a cake for a firends brothers wedding. I know kid of confusing. I was my first paying gig. To see pictures you can go to my cake blog.

After we delivered the cake and set it up we went to the train museum so Kyle could ride the Goose. He loves the goose and it is all he can talk about when anyone mentions the railroad museum. We got there just as the train was leaving and it would be another housr before the next ride so we wnt to lunch. We found an awesome philly cheesesteak place! Henry got his with jalapenos, it was so good. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes a little kick and flavor in there food.

We got back to the museum and rode the train. Kyle was a happy boy.

Kyle and I did get to go to story time this week at the library. Every 1st Thursday of the month during the summer the story teller is someone in uniform. Last month was a policeman (we missed that one) but this month it was assistance dogs and their owners. Kyle loved seeing the dogs and listening to stories about them. He also enjoyed that some kids from the ward were there to play with a little bit afterward.
