Glen, Glen, Glen and Glen
by Mike on Mar.20, 2009, under General
Today, the most amazing, unexpected thing in the world happened. Grandpa Dodge came up from St. George! He never, NEVER makes the trip, but since Aunt Coleen is in the hospital very sick, he made the trip. I wish it were under better circumstances, but he’s here! And on the way up, he and Grandma both said they wanted to see the baby.
So here it is, a picture of all 4 Glen Dodges. And just for kicks, a picture of Glen, Glenna and Glen. Do you think we have overused this name? Or is it just taking this many attempts to get things right? We’ll just have to see.

Don’t Drink the Water
by Mike on Feb.20, 2009, under Kidz
Once again, James is sick. He has been throwing up for two days (last night it was all over the bedsheets that we had just washed the day before). Right now it is so bad he can’t even keep down a drink for more than a few minutes. We are going to try some chicken broth by spoonfulls, just to try and get him some nourishment…but it makes me wonder if he will ever get the idea that drinking Chewie’s water is not good for him.
Granted, that might not be what happened this time…but he has a history of putting disgusting things in his mouth. Just the other day, I caught him licking the underside of the kitchen table. Who knows what kind of stuff you’d find there?!?!

Home sick from Church
by Mike on Feb.01, 2009, under General
So today I am home from church, sick. This morning I could barely move or talk, and as the day has worn on I have been feeling a bit better, but bored out of my mind. So I decided to retouch some of the photos that we had taken in the fall, to get ready for printing. By retouch, I mean take Aiden’s eyes from one photo, James’ face from another, and piece together something where it looks like our kids know how to stand still for the smallest of moments.

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 job is doing well, and Johanna 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 Johanna’s sister Amanda for free-95, and yesterday Johanna 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 Sugar Factory Playhouse, 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 baby 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 puppet show at the West Jordana library 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…

I’m still kicking
by johanna on May.24, 2008, under General
kind of, I feel useless and miserable. It seams like this pregnancy is harder then my last two. (Maybe I’m having a girl!) All I can do is cry to Mike, cry to my mom, and hope not everyone will disown me by the time this is all over. We have been thinking of boy names just in case, we already have our next three girls names picked out, and the one that really sticks out for me is Wesley. Mike says it is still up in the air, but has yet to give me any other useful boy names. So tell me what you think. Is it a good strong name or will he be endlessly teased by his peers!
