Needs a Name

I had no idea what to title this just because a lot has happened since my last post. Ammon got into preschool!! We're so proud of our little boy, he's been going since the Monday after his birthday. A bus comes and picks him up each day except Wednesday (at the recommendation of the school district) and each day I ask if he wants to go to school and he runs and gets his shoes and coat and we'll go out and wait for it and he spends a few hours there, then comes home via the bus and starts crying when it pulls away and he doesn't want to come inside. He LOVES it, I haven't gone over to the preschool to see him yet, but the notes that his teacher sends home say that he hasn't had any problems. He meets with a speech therapist at the school for at lease 45 minutes per week and he has shown dramatic improvement from what I can see. A huge triumph is he can count up to 10, it's so cute how he says it. My favorite number is 7, him saying as "seben". He has given up naps and will only take one about every 4th or 5th day, but for my sanity, he still has his "rest" time from the time he gets home till 4, so he can calm down from the day and the real fun begins. He has yet to show any interest in potty training, but I'm hoping that he'll make it a wonderful Christmas present for me, but we'll see.

Hayden is almost 3 months old! I can't believe it. With both boys it seems like the weeks just fly by. He can almost roll over, I don't know if that's common for his age but he's doing it nonetheless. He's gotten onto somewhat of a routine where he wakes up at about 7:30 and is awake until about 9 then sleeps until about 10 then goes back down at about 12:30 (Ammon's preschool) and will sleep until about 4 then goes to sleep at about 6:30 until about 9:30 then is up until 1 or so. It's very nice and I'm able to get stuff done while Ammon's in preschool, most days anyway. He loves to smile and will play "stick your tongue" out with Adam. He already loves Ammon. Last night while we were reading (all in our bed) Hayden was jsut smiling at Ammon it was the cutest thing, and Ammon still loves holding Hayden and is so gentle with him. Hayden is Ammon's budder or baby.

Adam has started back at the job he had last fall and is very glad to be back there. School is going and going. We calculated it out that if everything is laid out right and the classes are in the right semesters (let's hope) then he'll graduate next December. YIPPEE!! The long awaited day is finally within the light! He hasn't decided if he's going to go for his master's and so I'll be starting up again very slowly of course to get a degree in early childhood education (I know I finally decided, but better late than never right?). Today is our 4th year anniversary and unfortunately we can't really do much because of school, but we'll be going up to Bear Lake during Christmas break so we'll celebrate it soon.
Halloween wasn't really celebrated here, Ammon didn't want to get dressed into his costume to go trick or treating and so we didn't go. We didn't get anybody at our house even though we were prepared for them (I think our hill of a driveway keeps everyone at bay. Oh well... maybe next year.
