Busy life..

Life has been so crazy these past few months. I have been so busy remodeling our little red brick house. Let me just say that it is ten times worse then building because you have to actually live there and try keeping 2 kids under the age of 3 out of disaster, it is so hard. We aren't even doing anything really huge it's just so hard trying to find time and the kids wanting to do what you do. Plus it probably doesn’t help that I am doing everything myself, I want to, I guess I want to feel like I am accomplishing something but it is very difficult. I have been scraping 5 layers of horrid wallpaper of the walls this past month.. NIGHTMARE! I don't understand why they kept laying wallpaper after wallpaper over each other. I feel like it will never get done. I'm not very good at being patient so I guess this is testing me :)

Jaden started dance a few weeks ago and I just LOVE watching her, she is so cute in her dance attire. Jade is a little shy, I'm not sure where she gets that from, definitely very different from me lol. I can already see that it is giving her more confidence. She is my little sweetheart, she truly is the sweetest little girl, and I’m convinced.

Kody has been so busy at work lately, I only see him at nights, half day on Saturdays and on Sundays. I love being with him, I can’t wait till he gets home every night. He is so helpful with the kids.

Kash is so BUSY!!! He has started walking the past month and oh BOY, he is into everything! I'm so glad that I don't have my bigger house to try to chase him everywhere. We have doors to our stairs so I am so glad for that! I don't know if it's a boy thing or just his personality but he is into everything, so independent, and rough!

Kody has been called to the Young Men’s Presidency, he loves it. I think that Kody is really good with the youth, so it totally fits him. I know he will do a great job; he always does whatever he gets called to do. He is so committed to his callings.

Jaden is going to be starting pre-school in a couple weeks. I don't know how I feel about it. I want her to go so she can interact with other kids and learn, but I don't want my baby to leave me just yet... I love her so much, she is my little sweetheart. I LOVE being around her!

Our family is sooo excited to go to Disneyland in October, my mom and Kody’s step-mom are coming along to help out. Jade talks about it non-stop. She’s so excited and I think I am probably more excited then her :) We are also going to Disney world exactly one month later, we are going with Kody's mom, step-dad, Kodys brother, his wife and their new baby boy. We are super excited for that too. Kody and I were going to go on a Disney cruise to the Bahamas for Christmas but I think we decided that we will probably be burned out on trips and Disney. :)

Well things are great and busy at the Olson home, I hope all is well with all of you. PS.. Just a side note, I like blogging 100 times more then fb. Blogging just seems more personable, but it seems like I am always on fb instead of updating my blog. I'm going to try and be better at it!
