March Activities

Jen continues to work on her goals she set at the first of the year. She doesn't get them all each day but has been successful in improving her life and habits quite a bit. Grant occupies most of her time and I think she's done well to get him doing a number of different activities during the day; if he had his choice, some days might be watching nonstop tv. She finished at least a couple books this month including City of Ember, and Eldest-the second book in the Eragon series. She does well to keep the house orderly even though she may have a person/persons working directly against her.
I have been spending most of my time on two activities: remodeling the Kaysville house, and trying to finish my online advanced English class. I'm trying to qualify to graduate or at least walk in April. The "old Woolsey place" is coming along nicely. If we decided not to fix up the den, I think we would complete the project by mid-April; the tile is all placed, the painting just needs touch-ups, the shower/shower surround are complete, and the granite counters are scheduled for the 14th. As for my English class, I hope you can see a difference in my grammar and punctuation already. I had a couple interviews this month, but I am still waiting to hear back from them; We'll see. Everyone can feel free to keep your eyes out for me and let me know if you hear of any good job openings.
Grant is communicating so well these days. He can say enough words that we probably couldn't name them all, but he mostly likes to stick to the basics- No way!, watch (watch tv), side (let's go outside), juice, snacks, and buttball (football or about any other sport ball). Grant loves to dance. Give him a good beat and he'll shake it up. He gets some of his moves from "The Wiggles" but others are all his own. If our computer was 100%, we would post some pictures and videos. During the sunny days in March, Grant loved to go outside, run everywhere, explore everything, and kick a ball around. He is really going to have a blast this spring and summer. He will be going to nursery in a couple of weeks. Jen and I don't have a calling and joke that we'll be called as nursery leaders just as we are liberated to pay full attention in church.
