Thumb Sucking Solutions

My sweet baby, who is now 5, still sucks his thumb. Mostly it's when he is tired or waking up. So last night, Thao decided to "cure" him. I wish I had taken a picture! He put a glove on his hand, and wrapped medical tape around his wrist. So Joey went to bed decked out like Michael Jackson!!! He slept fine then yanked it off this morning! We'll see what happens next...

WHEW!

The birthday month is finally over! Aaron turned 13 (AGH),Thao had a birthday during the soccer tournament, and we ended with mine. Thao's was the most fun - I did a surprize party or him with his soccer team at the hotel. I don't think he even suspected anything until Cole and Gage showed up late and RUINED it!!! It was still really funny! The boys were allowed to get a him a present for $1 or less. He got lots of candy and some very creative things! An his team lost one, tied one and won 2 - came in third place in a higher division!!! It was lots of fun!
we didn't do too much for Aaron, but he will be having a "movie party" when they have a day off of school. And the best part about my birthday is it's over! jk Seriously, the best part was scrappin with Sara and Tammy, and all the b-day wishes from my friends! (but my bro forgot! hehehe)

I love Sunshine and Blue Skies

If you have ever lived in Utah in the winter, you know about the inversion. Or perhaps I should say "Inversion". It gets yucky and smoggy and gross and hard to breath. A couple weeks ago, Utah had the top five cities with the worst air quality in the nation. SO...
I LOVE sunshine and blue skies and white clouds and snow and rain. I am grateful to have much cleaner air to breath, and I'm grateful that Heavenly Father allows not-so-good things so we can appreciate the good things!
