April 2011

Kaleb got a haircut in March and I had the lady cut it just like Dad's and I couldn't believe how much they looked alike. Kaleb surely is his father's son.

The beginning of April brought General Conference and Mummi and Pappa stayed with us for a night. It is always fun when they are here the kids just love to play with them and we are grateful for that. General Conference was good of course but it is really hard to pay attention to the speakers when you have two little ones running and screaming. So I will listen to the sessions again later. I made a cake for a little spring celebration party but it turned out not to happen so we got to enjoy a cute flip flop cake over the weekend. The kids discovered sliding down our stairs and that is always a fond memory of mine as a kid of sliding down the stairs. Although growing up we used slick sleeping bags and it could be pretty dangerous but we had a great time and so did Kaleb and Kaija.

April also started the beginning of soccer games for Kaleb. His team is called Red Hot Fire but it has been anything but warm at his games so far. He has been so excited to start to play. When we got his uniform and gear he would want to put it on every day and just wear it around the house. Kaleb likes to goalie and when he is on the field he just prances around just running with the crowd. But what do you expect from 4 year olds. Kaleb actually is too young to be in the league but I found that out after I registered him. Oh well. Our games our Tuesday and this spring has been brutal. Every week it is so cold the first game, Kaleb did not even last the whole time because it was so cold. I certainly don't blame him. We hope that the last few games he has in May it will actually be warm. This winter has been way to long!
