just stuff!
Hi Everyone,
I just thought I would try saying something on the blog since I haven't actually done that yet!
Things are going great. School is keeping us really busy- my class load isn't as busy as normal but I am also taking the Kaplan Prep course for the Dental Assesmant test, and I am a TA for a pre dent class at school (I teach the other students how to carve wax models of teeth). I am also trying to get ready for the process of applying to dental school which, when all is said and done, will have taken me more than a year. So that is what I do with most of my time... in my spare time I am a father and a husband which is pretty awesome. Christine is an amazing mother all of the time and she keeps me on track when I get a little short with Gideon. He is the sweetest kid in the world but has a good strong set of lungs, which he uses to try and get my attention sometimes. I guess, I just need to learn to listen to him better!
Things have been a little tiring lately because we have all been fighting off a cold for about two weeks. It is hard enough to keep up normally but when no one feels very good it is even harder! Last Friday night Gideon was fussing in bed a bit around 12pm and so we went in and checked on him and he puked all over the floor and went right back to sleep for the rest of the night. The next morning he woke up early, 6 am-ish ( I assume because he had such an empty stomach) and he ate a really big breakfast and I thought gosh I am glad he is feeling a little better than last night. After breakfast he was still really tired so I held him while he slept for another hour and a half before I finally thought I should take him up to bed, well I think his toddler sonar went off, warning him of impending danger, so he woke up and puked all over me, and it worked, he didn't have to go back to bed. He got a quick bath and then got to play till nap time. I guess I should count my blessings that I didn't feed him anything brightly colored. Sorry we didn't take any pictures of that to post on the blog.
Well I just want to post a deep thought before I go.
I bet a funny thing about driving a car off a cliff is, while you're in midair, you still hit those brakes. Hey, better try the emergency brake.

Bathtime Fun
Gideon loves his bath... almost as much as Daddy loves doing his hair during his bath- it works for everyone!
Gideon and I spent a little over a week babysitting my sister's (Deanna) kids while she and her husband were in Hawaii. It was fun- they are such good kids... an interesting experience going from 1 child to 7 overnight! Wow! I don't know how she does it. Levi came up on Friday of the second weekend, so at least I didn't have to get all 7 kids and myself to church alone again- whew! We are loving life and hope you are all happy and well- we love hearing from you!
