The Weidmans

Hailey and Cougar had their first soccer games. I guess I am officially a soccer mom. Hailey is the smallest girl out there but plays aggressive and runs hard. They asked her to try being goalie (and think big) for the second half of her first ever soccer game and she did awesome. She didn't let a single ball go past her, jumping on it if it got near her and then quickly throwing the ball out to her teammates. She did so well that they asked her to be goalie in the next game also. We got the shower pan installed, and the surround installed the next day. We got a steal of a deal on it since Justin's student works for the company. Cougar had his first soccer game. He did pretty well running after the ball but was a little hesitant to kick it away when someone on the other team had it. His league plays four quarters and they had four different goalies who would rather play in the net than stop the ball so that was a little frustrating to watch, but Cougar played pretty well and h...

The kids got to play with some of their cousins from California. Jodi took these pictures of them that night. We were all laughing because Heidi and Shae are both in 5th grade and only 6 months apart, and Jana thought Hailey was in first grade because she's just tiny. Brynlee and Lacey were having fun and being silly like usual. Hap looked pretty cute with his Cookie Monster bib on while eating a Nilla Wafer. I bought them so maybe he would learn to eat something since he is not liking baby food at all. Since they're big enough to grab and they dissolve easily in your mouth I thought they might help him learn. He likes to play with them but doesn't really want to eat them. We dyed our plastic Easter eggs. This year the eggs came with packets of dye that worked really well to make bright colors. Usually the plastic eggs don't take the color very well so this was fun to have such bright eggs. The kids had fun and we have some cute eggs now. The older kids got free UVU ba...

Hap is still living up to his name and brings happiness to those around him with his infectious smiles. He is really good at sitting up now, and only falls over occasionally if he gets too excited or tries to see something out of his view. He weighs about 18 pounds which is making my left arm very strong carrying him around everywhere. He doesn't like any of the baby foods we have given him. He seemed to like peaches more than any of the other foods I had tried the first night I gave them to him, but then I tried again the next night and he refused them after the first bite. I can coax him into opening his mouth a couple times to eat tiny bites but then he just refuses. So he's still nursing about every 3 hours around the clock. He always takes a great nap in the day and still wakes up several times a night to eat. He loves to laugh at funny things his siblings do. He is getting better at playing with his toys and likes to chew on them like most babies do. He is still great in...
