I'm originally from Washington state where I had hoped to return after college, but it wasn't meant to be (at least not yet). I came all the way to BYU in Utah to get my education and ended up finding Nathan, my husband, who is also from my hometown, and who I dated in high school. Why I had to come all this way beats me. I did finish my degree in Early childhood education in April 2000, however, we decided to start a family rather than have me teach. Kirsten was born in Feb. 2001, then Zachary in Nov. of 2002 and Caleb in Sept. 2006. Now my life is my family and my full time- lifetime job is wife and mother.
Visiting the Cook's in Idaho Falls for spring break!
We had a great time visiting Corinne, Spencer and Ethan. The boys played with trains, cars, guns, and of course legos. It was fun seeing Ethan walking and talking more since it had been almost 8 months since we saw him last. We learned Ethan's favorite shows are "pat pat" or Little Einsteins and "choo choo" or Chugginton the train show. These became the main entertainment as he only eats with the tv going. When all the kids wanted to sit by Ethan, Ethan decided he didn't want to sit with any of them. This is the cutest picture of Ethan. He is taking a ride on his spiderman 4 wheeler and giving the best "cheese" ever. I tried to get all the kids in one shot, but with four kids someone is always moving. This time Caleb moved too much to the side. The second shot got all of them in the picture and captured some personality as well. Can't you just see Ethan telling Kirsten to let go so he can be on his way and Kirsten doing her silly face and the other boys acting innocent when their minds are thinking of their next move to get on that bike. Zach finally getting his one and only turn and then when the battery was dieing we couldn't figure out if it was going slow because of the weight it was carrying or the extra friction of the rug. Zach didn't get another chance to find out. Caleb gets a turn, but not because Ethan willingly gave up his spot. He was chasing after Caleb like alot of the time when he wanted all of his toys, especially the ones that Caleb had, even if there were others to be had. Caleb made his getaway and boy was he happy!
