summer 2008

Here is all that has happened since our last update. We lived at belmont for the summer. Doug took his last two classes and graduated from BYU!!!!! yay! I also took two classes during the summer.(Stats and Intermediate sewing) Shannon moved in with us and she was a big help babysitting Josh while Doug and I were in class. Thanks Shannon! Josh started walking. He also had his first birthday. He is so big. Summer came and went. Between semesters we visited the fam in Washington. Now we are back in Provo at yet another apartment. We live over by the hospital in Westwood. I really like this area of town. We have lots of room (3 bed and 2 bath) like belmont, just not quite as new and spiffy. I am taking a full load of classes (sewing, human development, floral design, interior plants and landscapes, new testament, and textiles). Doug watches Josh in the morning while I am at class and goes to work when I get back. We live right across from some really nice neighbors. They have a son a couple months older than Josh, (James) and they like to play together. That makes it so nice for Josh to have such a close playmate. Josh is getting so smart. He can climb up onto a chair and get onto the kitchen table. He loves to give kisses. He is very friendly and goes to just about anyone. He likes to go right up to people and bend in toward them and say hi. Anywhere he sees children he heads straight toward them to go and play. We have a park just two blocks away from our apartment and Josh loves to go play there. Daddy takes him there a lot of mornings while I am at class. Either Josh doesn't understand the word no yet or he just totally ignores Doug and I. He can get into lots of mischief. He is very cute though. He justs points his finger at me and says no right back and gets a big grin on his face and goes right on doing what he was doing and sometimes I can't help but laugh. Well I guess that sums up our summer. Here are some pictures for real this time.
