The First Week

by Mike on Jan.15, 2009, under General

So Glen is now officially 1 week old (don’t worry, I won’t bore you all with up-to-the-nanosecond updates…this ought to suffice until the next truly monumentous event). He is just learning how much fun it is to eat and eat and eat and eat and EAT all the time. Today he gave a whole 3 hours between feedings at one point. But perhaps she is the one who should tell you all about that.

You see, earlier this week, everyone was asking me “How’s the doing? You getting any ?” and I felt obliged to make some comment about how his feeding schedule meshed with my need for rest. But doesn’t like me saying anything, because the truth of the matter is that so far, he hasn’t caused me to lose much.

James and Aiden

by johanna on Dec.11, 2008, under General

Aiden has a hard time focusing on homework. I think he might have ADD because he can’t focus for long at all.  He is having a hard time with math, and .  He is getting better at . There is a website that helps kids learn to read through games and interaction. It is called starfall.com I recomend it. On the site there is a snowman game that Aiden plays all the time. At the beginning someone says, ow sometimes sounds like O.  Aiden has played it so much that that saying in stuck in my head.  Today I was working on sight words with Aiden, James was there, one of the words was bowl and Aiden didn’t know it.  I tell him to sound it out, he wasn’t doing a good at it and so I gave him a hint. Remember that game, sometimes ow sounds like what. James blurts out really quickley O.  Aiden was still trying to figure it out. James is a smart cookie. I hope he has a better time with school then Aiden is having!

The Starry-Eyed Puppet Show, etc.

by Mike on Jun.25, 2008, under General, Kidz, Married Life

The kids are having a great summer, my is doing well, and doesn’t feel super-sick all day anymore (though mornings and evenings are still a little rough.) All in all things seems to be turning out pretty well. We have two semi-new couches we got from ’s sister Amanda for free-95, and yesterday actually rearranged the front room (or is it a family room, or a living room?) and it looks really nice.

Last night we went to see State Fair at the , and it was a pretty good show. Some of my old friends there haven’t seen me since I was a single, not-even-anyone-on-the-horizon sort of guy. Finding out that Dodge is on the way was a real shocker.

But even with all this great news, the most memorable part of the recent week was when we decided to take the kids to a free at the West Jordana for Family Home Evening. It was the Starry-Eyed Puppet Show, and it was really something else. What made it so great? Well, let me tell you…
