2012

This year has been fun, challenging, and adventurous! Kyle has been diligently working at Mercy General Hospital. The surgeons there haven't made it easy on him and he's been a trooper getting the experience he needs to get a new job at a better place. And he finally has! He accepted a job at the University of Utah Hospital in November and we are going to be moving at the end of January. He is hoping to do more hunting, camping, fishing, and snowboarding in Utah than is possible to do here in California. We are also thrilled to be near family so our kids can know their cousins more than once or twice a year.

Bailey has been busier than ever, playing, singing, dancing, and learning to talk back (uh-oh!). She is still such a sweetie and says the funniest things! She thinks she is pretty grown up. She started potty training at the beginning of February and we are still waiting for that. We have successes here and there but she will come around soon. We got season passes to Six Flags here and she loves going there. They have dolphin and whale shows and she can go on and on about those and how much she loves them. I started to teach her preschool this fall and she loves her 'school'. We've had fun and hopefully will get back into it in February when things aren't so crazy. Most of all loves her baby sister. There isn't a day that goes by that she isn't begging to hold her, smother her, or kiss her. She has adjusted well and we are so excited!



Hattie is the best baby ever! As long as I don't eat chocolate, she is so calm and relaxed. She only wakes up twice a night and I am so grateful for that! She is starting to coo and babble a little bit and I love hearing babies voices for the first time. I love all her hair and can't wait to put clips in it in the next few months. She loves Bailey and Bailey entertains her for hours. She just likes to watch Bailey so I occasionally lay Hattie close to where Bailey is playing so she can watch her and it's pretty cute!

This has been a great year for us and hope it was for all of you too. Happy New Year!

Yay! It's so great that you guys will get to be closer to family now. And it looks like Bailey is adjusting to her now role of big sister. She's so grown up. Congrats on your little Hattie.
