Jon, surrounded by Kurt, Tristan, and a few other close friends, gave Talon a name which he will be known throughout his life and on the records of the church, and a blessing. Jon blessed him with strength and health to grow strong in his faith and in his life. With wisdom to be able to discern right from wrong and courage to act on that . And he blessed him with the knowledge to know that is family and those around him love him very much.<br />
<br />
It was a short sweet blessing! I am so thankful that Jon is willing and able to bless our children, and I am thankful for Kurt and Tristan who were also able to share in this special ordinance.<br />

<br />
<br />
After trying every single trick in the book to self induce labor, I got too impatient and went a head and scheduled an induction 4 days before my due date. I also induced Lex and Winter ( I guess I'm pretty impatient, huh!) so we had the whole process down. The doctor called in the order the week before, and Labor and Delivery would call me between 5 and 5:30 am on the morning of the 18th. My mom spent the night in case they wanted us to come in right away. I woke up at 4:30 to shower and await the call. By 5 :30 I was getting anxious, but had to wait until 8 to call them. My poor kids expected to wake up and us be gone and be able to head to the hospital to meet their new baby brother.<br />
<br />
At 8 o'clock I called them to see what was up. They said I was next to be called but there weren't any rooms, so to call back at noon if they hadn't called sooner. I really think the wait was worse than being a kid on Christmas Eve!! But they called at about 9:45 and Jon and I kissed the kids and ran out the door.<br />
<br />
After getting checked in and changed, our cute little nurse came in to get me all set up. She checked my arm for a good vein for the iv, said I had good veins, but when she stuck me she hit a valve and spent a good amount of time and lots of pain trying to get around it, but to no avail! I have to say now that it's all over, that pain of her continuously poking the valve, and then the subsequent pain of having my blood pressure taken regularly on that arm, was worse than the contractions! I also have a massive bruise that wraps around my whole wrist even still today, a week later. Anyway, after not being able to use that vein after all, she had to use another one higher up on my hand, weird spot! And after getting the needle in, and taking a few little tubey thingys, the connection thing fell off and a geyser of my blood went spewing all over everything. Yikes! Sorry all you squeemish people! Jon just buried himself in his iPhone while this was happening.<br />
<br />
Then we finally started the petocin at noon. I immediately started having contractions, but we upped it every half hour to get them more regular. We assumed this would all go really fast. The nurse and doctor both agreed that rupturing my water would kick it into high gear and we'd have a baby in no time! Awesome! Well the doctor had a complication in a C-section and then a delivery that took a really long time, and since those were more of a priority, we waited. Which I am okay with, Jon and I watched "Lost" on Netflix, it was fun. Contractions started getting harder and more regular, so we went ahead and did the epidural. My anesthesiologist was amazing and so fast!<br />
<br />
Then we just waited for the doctor. For hours! But for some weird reason I was not progressing! The week before at my appt. My Dr. had said I was at a 3+, and the nurse was telling me that I was at just about a 3 and I stayed that way, even through the contractions. The nurse was sure breaking my water would help that, but we still had to wait for the Dr. My nurse really wanted me to have the baby before 6 which is when the shift change was, and so she kept on top of knowing where the Dr was.<br />
<br />
He finally made it out of the other delivery and came in the room at about 5pm. Our nurse was in another delivery, so we had a stand in nurse check me and I was still only a 3. My doctor had a student following him and asked if I was okay with the student rupturing my water. Of course I was okay, I think it's awesome! At about 5:15 the nurse rechecked me and I was already at a 6, but said she'd wait a full hour to recheck me, even though I knew it wouldn't be that long. At about 5:30 Contractions were every minute and I was feeling pressure. Our nurse returned, mostly to say good-bye since shift change was at 6. But she decided to check me because I was feeling so much pressure. So at 5:45 she said yep there is no more cervix and there is a baby right there! So she went to get the Dr who would also change at 6 (I go to a group of amazing Doctors!) and Jon called mom and the kids to come over.<br />
<br />
They all decided to stay on just to have this baby. My Dr asked if it would be okay if the student, who was just too sweet by the way, could deliver the baby if he was there with his hands practically on top of the students. He said I was a perfect subject for a student, with this being #5 and me not ever having ripped and having smooth labors in the past. Of course! How cool is that for this guy! Our baby would be his first delivery! It was funny too because the Dr's wife called him just before the delivery, because he was supposed to be off in minutes.<br />
<br />
They got dressed and came over and said okay at the next contraction push. So I started pushing,<br />
"Okay not that hard! The head is out, okay just a little for the rest of baby"<br />
So in one push, at 6:01, our little son was out for us to love and hold!<br />
<br />
Dr Drewes commented that after the last delivery, which was one of the hardest he had ever had, that this was the EASIEST he'd ever had! Woo hoo! If only he had been there earlier, we could have had the baby much sooner, but as the Dr.s cleaned up, we were just happy to hold our son, the student was happy to have delivered his first baby, the nurse and doctor were happy because they really didn't have to stay too long after their shift change, and the Dr's wife was happy he'd be home in time for dinner!<br />
<br />
Mom, and Kurt and the kids got there just after the doctors were done cleaning up. And Winter was immediately up on the bed with me and the baby. It's as if she knew him and was waiting for him. She knew to be gentle and soft and she couldn't stop giving him kisses. It was very sweet. And everyone else loved to hold him too. But they didn't get very much time before the nurse had to take him to get a bath.<br />

<br />
Jon said that there was a new nurse in the nursery too, and our baby was her first baby to clean. He said she did an amazing job. While Jon was in the nursery, I was moved to the mother/baby floor and in to my room for the night.<br />
<br />
Then came the task of naming our new little boy. We have had Talon as the name for a long time. It was the runner up for Lex. But we had both heard it recently and were worried it was going to be too common. So over the past few weeks my mom and sister would tell us names they had heard that were uncommon, and we found a few others we liked, but in the end, nothing seemed right. He was Talon, even if it is a little less uncommon. We had also planned on using the Lindsey family male child middle name, but in the end decided to use my maiden name.<br />
<br />
The kids stayed with us for a while and everyone passed Talon around, loving on their new brother, and he just slept, rarely making a sound. Mom took everyone home around 10, and Jon and I settled in with our 5th bundle of joy. After so many times, Jon has those uncomfortable chair/pull out beds figured out. And he said he slept really well this time. Talon and I also slept well.<br />
<br />
The next day, we had expressed that we wanted to leave as soon as possible, but knew they wanted us to stay the full 24 hours, so after a quick visit in the morning. Mom took Evey to dance and the other 3 to Seven Peaks! I missed taking pictures of Talon by himself in the hospital, because I ended up getting some weird side effects from the percocet they gave me. I have never had a tolerance for prescription pain meds. And I know that (now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure I turned the big pain med down and stuck with the ibuprofen with Winter, and maybe even both Paris and Lex too) but I went ahead and took a few of the doses of the percocet. So , anyway, I had to sleep off that junk for most of the day. But really my pain level was not high, so the ibuprofen would have done just fine.<br />
<br />
We finally got home around 9:30 on Tuesday. The kids had made a cutie welcome home sign for Talon, they like Jon and I were so glad to finally have our beautiful new family member with us to love and watch grow!<br />

And look I've even updated the blog now. :) I got some sewing done and thought I should post it incase I go into labor here soon. I still have a boppy cover, a chair cover, a blanket and maybe a carseat cover to make, hopefully in the next few days. 5 sleeps until he is being evicted, if he doesn't come sooner.<br />

Even Winter senses how high they are and will go up the stairs, but has only gotten on someones bed once or twice and she stays against the walls and calls for someone to help her down. <br />
<br />
The other day while I was folding clothes in the next room over, she started crying and I knew she had fallen from somewhere. I flew into the room, pretty fast for my prego self, and found her standing in the middle of the room. No gushing blood or anything, until I saw her little nose had a mark on it. I checked everything else... head and neck, which I knew were okay because she was standing, while Evey grabbed an otter pop (our favorite form of ice for ouchies) As I was trying to put the ice on her nose it started bleeding and was already swelling, so I decided I wanted to take her to the emergency room to get checked out. I happened to have taken Jon to work that day, so I had to swing by and pick him up, and my mom met us at the hospital to take Paris and Lex. Evey choose to come with us.<br />
<br />
I told them she had fallen from the top bunk and caught a stair on the way down, assuming the worst. We got into a room right away and while we were waiting for the doctor, the nurse said it was okay to let her fall asleep because she didn't appear to have any head trauma. It was nap time, so being sleepy was adding to her misery. She actually fell asleep pretty quick. The doctor was able to check her out while she was sleeping so she wasn't moving and he decided to run a CT scan on her while she was sleeping. Well we all know how it goes in the emergency room, we waited for a long while. We decided she hadn't actually fallen from the top bunk, she must have fallen from her own bed, which is still higher then normal beds, her wound just wasn't that bad. Anyway, by the time they came to get us to take us to the scan, she had been asleep for an hour, so when we picked her up, she woke up. But she was super good and stayed mostly still, or enough to get a good picture of her head and face. I'm really glad they didn't have to sedate her!!<br />
<br />
Then we went back to our room and waited for the results. She was fully awake by this time and was acting completely normal. We were in a pediatric room with an underwater, Finding Nemo theme. She was having fun running around looking at the fish, and crawling on the bed and trying to crawl up on the tray that held the sodas they had brought us, totally back to her spunky self finding something else to fall from! When the doctor came in he laughed at how much of an improvement she had made. He said the scan looked really good, her brain was fine and there were no breaks in her face. He checked her shoulders though, because there looked like a fracture in her shoulders, but after seeing her running around and that her back looked fine, they determined she had just shifted during the scan.<br />

When we got home and I tried to give her ibuprofen, but she didn't want it and didn't seem to be in any pain what so ever. Though we took it easy the rest of the day. Jon told me that after they had dropped me off at the emergency room door and he waited in the car with the kids for my mom, that they had said a prayer and especially asked that Winter not feel much pain and for her to heal quickly. I am so thankful for the power of prayer! Winter did not seem to be in any pain at all in the following days, though I did get her to take some ibuprofen once. She looked a little funny and I referred to her as my "funny face" but she did not get the full raccoon mask bruising I thought she would get, and here we are a week later and it is almost completely healed, except for a tiny bit of bruising left under her eyes. There have been many thankful prayers since that day!<br />

Even though 5 of the first 6 games were cancelled and rescheduled due to rain flooding the field. It actually worked better for us to have the season shifted later, because at the beginning of the season the games over lapped with dance a lot and so dance was the priority. Evey started the season at the top of the batting order, always getting a base hit.<br />

This year new rules were added, and stealing was allowed. It made for a much funner game, that and the pitchers are refining their skills and can throw more hittable balls now. They go through a draft at the beginning to the season so that the teams are more evenly matched, but there was one team who ended up with 2 or so AMAZING pitchers. Not sure how they pulled that off, except I think they were the coach and assistant coaches daughters! Oh well they were an awesome team and super tough to beat. But Evey's team gave them a run for their money, when they played. <br />

Evey switched between outfield ( her coach says it's because she has a great arm to get the ball in field, but she rarely saw action out there) and 3rd base. But , it was so fun to watch her bat and steal the bases, it was pretty easy stealing 2nd and 3rd and then they would often send them to steal home, so that was always a rush watching the close calls and as my mom wrote on her facebook status after watching one game: "<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"> I watched my oldest granddaughter Evey slide into home base and emerge out of a cloud of dirt - SAFE!!!</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"> " </span><br />

At the end of the season Evey's team had the second best record. Then the city holds a tournament, so through all of that they just couldn't beat that one team, and so they came out 2nd in the league, but, that was good enough to move on to the state tournament!<br />

The state tourney was held not too far from our house, which made it really nice. It was double elimination so we knew we'd get to see her play at least twice. The first game was a huge eye opener! We had always heard that Provo was a fairly easy softball league and that other cities were much more gung-ho about it. Well we got a taste of that right off the bat!! This team was all about bending the rules to the breaking point as far as stealing. They went so far as to distract with one steal, to steal another girl, and then were amazing at the "pickle", which threw our girls off because they weren't used to that. Yikes! They also threw our girls off with a bunt one time, something our girls had NEVER seen in city play! And, their pitcher was <u>Mean</u> and super accurate. She could switch up between a standing pitch and this running fast ball that was just plain scary!! The girls were a little intimidated in the first inning, but shook it off and didn't let them get away with it the next few innings, unfortunately the other team had won the toss for home field advantage and so were able to beat us by 2. Our team did make some amazing plays though, and our pitch chased down the runner trying to steal home and tagged her! It was an awesome moment! And a super fun game to watch!<br />
<br />
The next game was with a team much more evenly matched, and we were pretty confident we could beat them. Well a team is only as good as their pitcher unfortunately. Our cutie pitcher was hurt twice in the first game, she twisted her ankle in an attempt to get out a base stealer and then was hit by a super hard ball as she was batting. So they ended up giving her a break in the second game, and the second pitcher although just as cute and sweet, wasn't at her best and the coaches waited too long to take her out, and we couldn't catch back up. That paired with a pair of teen aged umps who didn't really care (the field ump was throwing his own ball out in the field, not even paying attention) and made some rather stinky calls as far as balls and strikes. Oh, and the other team would waste incredible amounts of time getting out on to the field, wasting game time, and taking advantage of the stinky umps who did nothing about it. So when time was almost up, we we're down, but as long as we finished the inning they would start another if there was seconds on the clock. At the start of the bottom of that inning the clock said 1:45 and it began to thunder. After having petered out with all of the scoring the other team was able to do, this gave Evey's team and incredible boost of energy, because their team name is Thunder! They are so cute! Anyway, the clock said 1:45 and they needed to get the 3 outs to start another inning and have a chance to catch back up. And they did it!! With like a second left they got the last out, and after a little squabble between the coaches and the ump, the ump finally stood his ground and made a good call and let us start another inning! Unfortunately, they were up by a few too many and after a very noble effort we lost that one too! But it was a ton of fun and a great experience! Evey is looking forward to next season already!<br />
<br />
I took pictures at these games, and loaded them on the computer and then erased my memory card. But, something happened and only the thumbnails are in the compute! Argh! So no pictures, sorry!<br />

So it has been a crazy mess for a while, we haven't even been able to get the van in. Ugh!! I hate that! So we spent the day Cleaning out the garage and utilizing our attic space above it! Which is amazing!! Not sure why we didn't use this space before!<br />
<br />
So the garage is amazing and more spacious than it has ever been. We still have too much stuff to use it as a 2 car garage though, but oh well.<br />
<br />
Then the kids went next door to help with our neighbor's eagle scout project. He constructed wooden cages for a wild bird rescue center. So they are huge cages for eagles and hawks and other big birds of prey. My kids went over to help paint them.<br />
<br />
Then we all went over to roast dinner on the fire pit. Yum!<br />

After we had our fill of hot dogs, brats, watermelon, and smores. We all headed over to another neighbors house for a fantastic firework show. These neighbors go all out every year and go to Wyoming for the "BIG" fireworks. Then the whole neighborhood goes over and we have a huge block party, and they try not to kill themselves and everyone else as they set off these beasts! There were a few close calls, one of the huge boxes toppled over and would have shot the fireworks straight into everyone, but it had shot it's last one just before it fell,and me and a few others were hit with some falling mortar, but everyone was fine and had a blast. Unfortunately it started raining and so the night ended a little early. But it was so much good clean fun! Thanks again, Chelsea and Josh for the great party!<br />

But since we had to keep applying bug spray, it was silly to shower and then go to bed smelling of Off! So they didn't shower....Ewww! And since we got home so late anyway and had to carry most everybody in, showers were put off until morning. Sunday morning, when everything is rushed anyway.<br />
<br />
I used to love 9 o'clock church (we rotate every year 9, 11, 1) and Jon appreciates it in the fall so he can watch football, but as our family grows, and all these stinkin' girlies!! :) it makes it hard to get out the door on time, even though the chapel is a 5 minute walk...less driving time!!! There have been numerous times I have done hair in sacrament! This Sunday was one of those days. We got everyone showered and out the door, but were late enough to not find a seat, luckily I jumped on the front row once the deacons were done passing the sacrament, and proceeded to do hair.<br />
<br />
Both Evey and Paris wanted elaborate braids, so by the time I was done it was time for the closing song. I love July when we sing patriotic songs and the closing hymn was the Star Spangled Banner. I couldn't even get through the first line before I was bawling like a baby!! I love when the piano and organ tag-team and the sound is full and the congregation is standing, and our beautiful conductor sings an unwritten harmony. I love our national anthem, and especially when we get to sing all of the verses.<br />
<br />
We spent the rest of the day relaxing as we usually do, until I go to choir practice and then the whole gang shows up for our weekly dinner together.<br />

</tbody></table>We ate yummy Ka-bobs and then started a wicked game of Killer bunnies, but had to pause for fire crackers. Our awesome neighbors texted right as we were heading out that they wanted us to join them as they set off some too (I think it's a tradition now, we've done it for at least 3 years now), so we just combined our stuff and had a blast! Our laws on fireworks were loosened this year and so it was legal to get ones that shot up to 100 feet in the air. So Kurt picked up some of those, missed getting pics of them though.<br />

We had everyone out the door and at the field by 6:30 am! This is a HUGE accomplishment, I am so not a morning person (especially super prego) and neither are 3 out of 4 of the kids! But, we all did it so that daddy could see the Darth Vader Balloon (wink, wink). This was Vader's first year here, and our first year getting up on time. I'm glad we went this day too, because I heard the balloons were cancelled on the 4th because of icky weather.<br />

</tbody></table>We spent the rest of the day shopping and running errands. Then went to Grammys house to watch and listen to the Stadium of Fire. We have yet to buy tickets to the show, but when mom lives about a block and a half away from the stadium and we can see the big screen from her front yard, it makes it hard to want to fork out that much money! Maybe we're just cheap! :)<br />
<br />
We barely missed the fly over, the kids were heading out the door, so Evey and Paris saw it, but Lex FREAKED out from the sound and came running back in the house yelling for us to close the door . Poor guy. He has a hard time with thunder too, but he's been working on that and getting much better, but the jets were a new kind of loud!!<br />
<br />
So we sat out and listened to the show, and David Archuleta and some country guy....I know blasphemy on me for not knowing who he was....Country music generally not listened to in our house. Okay, it was Brad Paisley. Anyway....<br />
<br />
I took lots of firework pictures, but decided to only post a few, because once you see a few you've seen the all, am I right? However there were some pretty awesome ones this year that I don't think we'd ever seen before! And they were timed to the music, which we could tell but not hear due to the sound delay. It was still fun and awesome!!<br />

The kids have been sleeping in their new beds since March, and have loved every minute!!<br />
<br />
Then I had to finish by painting walls, beds, table and chairs, stairs, and dressers, sewing bolster pillows, comforter embellishments, and curtains and then giving the room a personality. It was tough finding something that fit for both boys and girls. I finally decided on industrial/ music.

Lex is in T-ball, much better that stupid start smart!!! But, he would still rather have a pitcher. The "T" is for wussies!!! I, as stated previously, am a bum, and again, waited until the last games to bring out the camera. And of course the last game was played on a makeshift field instead of their regular diamond with awesome red dirt and lines and everything! Ugh! It's just what I get for being a procrastinator!<br />
<br />
Lex had had a nasty stomach bug the day and night before his last game. We were all sad he would miss his game....but Lex had other plans. His game was a little bit later in the after noon, and he sucked it up and wanted to play. We went ahead and took him. I know we may be bad parents for this, but Lex LIVES for sports and counts down the "sleeps" until his next game, whatever it may be. So this being the last until fall soccer, we let him play. He did well, but I could tell he wasn't on his best game, poor guy.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The city makes it so there is a gradual learning process in each progressive league. They learn basics like throwing and catching in start smart. Then in Tball they go to a game set up, and have them run bases, but there are no outs and every kids is out on the field. This bums me a little because the kids need to learn that getting "out" is part of the game and not to get hurt feelings over it. More on that later. But, Lex's coach was awesome and really taught them some fundamentals: how to stand with one foot on base and reach for the ball, where the play is and other stuff like that. Lex was a great First baseman and Pitcher. He can catch most any ball thrown to him and throws really well too. Can wait to see him progress!!</td></tr>

Paris was in coach pitch this year, the step up from tball. The only thing different is, obviously, the coach is pitching the ball to them. There are still not outs, even though if you have a good coach -we did- if you are gotten out, they make you go back to the dug out. It doesn't count against the team though, and most teams just left the out girl on base.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">She would throw off her helmet as she was running to first. Which made me laugh, and no one ever corrected her on it. Apparently it's not a rule to have a helmet on as you run the bases. Paris is a little diva. She has a pink glove and a pink helmet and uses the pink bat. AND, hates to be the "grand slam hitter"!! She is very particular and likes to have everything go just the way she wants it to, so being tagged out at home does not work for her. This is why I hate these stupid no outs rules and the last hitter thing. It isn't teaching our kids good sportsmanship. We try to tell Paris it is okay to go last and be tagged out, that is part of the game and every kids has to do it sometime, and sometimes she'd cry because she'd have to be last, and she wanted to be first or third or whatever number she hadn't been yet. Her coach is her friends dad and he and his wife adore Paris and don't mind catering to her. We are annoyed to no end with Paris' attitude sometimes and get on her about crying and pouting. One time Jon yelled out "There's no crying baseball!" Not mean or anything, and he was actually quoting a movie, but I'm not sure the other parents picked up on this and he got some weird looks. I laughed!! We have another year of this division of coach pitch, and so we will be helping Paris to become a better team member. The next league up is much better! There are many more regular softball rules! But, for now, it was fun to watch Paris, and all her cutie little girly things she did as she played. And she really did enjoy playing!</td></tr>

Evey's regular season is over. I missed taking pictures!! I have some on my phone if it comes to that, but lucky for me they play a city wide tournament. She missed the first 2 games of the double elimination tournament, but the team won one and lost one, so they played again yesterday (6/28) and won putting them in the number two seat for the state tournament and in the finals for the city tournament. So, I will have another opportunity or two to get pictures of her. Phew! So, until then...<br />

He hasn't wiggled them too much until recently. He has let me give them a few hard tugs and they have gradually gotten looser. So the other day he wanted me to yank again. He's so cute because he willingly lets me grab it and pull and he doesn't make a sound. So I pulled it twice and he still wanted me to give it another pull, so I did. It came out in my hand, but I didn't let him know ( like with Paris) and he walked away and started talking and laughing with Paris, as Jon and I exchanged glances so that he knew I had it. Then I said to Lex,<br />
"Hey, come here let me pull it one more time"<br />
he was a little hesitant,<br />
"that last one hurt a little bit, but okay"<br />
so he came back over, and I said,<br />
"know why it hurt? 'cause I got it!"<br />
He was shocked and then really excited. He has been waiting a long time for the tooth fairly to pay HIM a visit. And he wasn't disappointed when he woke up the next morning. Now he is waiting for the other bottom tooth to get a little bit more wiggly!!<br />

I have been meaning to update all the pictures on my picture walls since Winter was born. I finally got around to it this week. Sad because she's almost a year and a half now! Anyway, I set out to take "good" pictures of everyone over the last little while, because I have their portraits blown up big on the entertainment center. Evey is so dramatic and mature! Paris is glamorous. Lex is super easy, and Winter is the biggest pain in the butt!!! But they are all so cute! Here is just a few of my favorites of each kid.<br />
<br />
We took a few different ones to put in Evey's room too. Here are those first.<br />

We cut about 7 inches of hair off the bottom of Paris hair. She was a little sad, but after seeing the before and after pictures, she thought it looked so much better and loved dressing up for pictures.<br />

We started in March with the construction, and it was done pretty fast, but it has taken me so long to paint everything that needs to be painted. I'm still not totally done with the other room. But I am telling myself it has to be done before I start making anything baby. So it gives me a deadline....<br />
Anyway, what used to be Lex's room -and never really got "finished" when we moved in- turned in to Evey's room and soon she will share with her littlest brother. So really this room still isn't complete either. <br />

My dad is the original mastermind behind this bed design. He built one for my brother once so he could fit all of his guitars and trap set in his small room. Jon is the mastermind behind the cubby stairs. And I contributed with the desk design. And Jon is the lone (plus 4 little helpers) carpenter for this whole room overhaul. He has built things before, but has never really taken on this kind of project by himself. He took much care and pride in building everything so that it looks fabulous and is sturdy. I am super proud of him!! And the kids absolutely love their new beds and rooms.<br />
(pics of the other room to come in near future...really really!)<br />

Then we baked them. We made the flower ones for Winter so she can hold them better.<br />
<br />

In our church bag we have had some nasty old crayons and nice markers. Well the markers are what everyone wants to use, and lately Winter has been a monster and colors on herself and everyone else. After coloring during sacrament the kids go to class multi-colored. So we decided we needed to ditch the markers and revamp our crayons. So with our newly made shaped crayons, I made each kid their own crayon pouch to go in the church bag. Evey's is a bit more custom with slots for colored pencils and crayons, and Paris and Lex have more room for more regular crayons, but this is Winter's, she has more spots for the big flower crayons we made her!<br />

Jazz show and the Ballet, the girls did a <br />
fabulous job at the performances on Friday and <br />
Saturday nights. We weren't allowed to record <br />
during the actual performances, so I had to <br />
make sure I was at the rehearsals at the right <br />
times to film them. Unfortunately, because they <br />
are rehearsals, you can hear babies crying and <br />
the directors telling them to smile and a <br />
choreographer's hand come in the the picture, she <br />
was right in the way and I was trying to film <br />
around her. Anyway, The girls are just getting <br />
so much better and they are so fun to watch!<br />
<br />
<br />
Paris went through a period of not loving ballet for<br />
a while. She has been telling me her feet hurt. I got<br />
her new ballet shoes, but it didn't help much. I'm<br />
thinking we may need to see a podiatrist, she<br />
walks a little funny and complains about her<br />
feel every now and then. Anyway, but as soon as<br />
she knew what her classes part was in the ballet and<br />
what their costumes were going to look like, she got<br />
really excited and loved ballet again. Her costumes<br />
were a huge mess, and long story, short, the beautiful<br />
midnight blue ones ordered for them were given to a<br />
different class on accident and then problems upon<br />
problems later, her class received the leftovers of many<br />
other classes. I know this because I was a seamstress<br />
this year and was given these random tutus the day<br />
before rehearsal to sew and make semi pretty and matching. <br />
They ended up not looking too bad on stage mostly<br />
because the wings made them all match. Paris' costume<br />
was one of the prettier ones and thankfully her favorite color,<br />
so she was happy!<br />
<br />
Again, this is a rehearsal, so the lighting wasn't right and<br />
they didn't have up the really pretty woodland set.<br />

<br />
I got to see Evey dance her ballet, but not sure why I didn't get it on<br />
film, but just know she was beautiful!! She can't wait for September,<br />
when she is 11 1/2 and they will evaluate her for pointe shoes. She is<br />
confident they will let her, it's all up to her own little body. We have<br />
to take her to the dr to make sure she is at 90% of her adult height,<br />
and that the bones in her foot are formed enough to put them through<br />
the torture of pointe! She's not going to be a tall girl, so hopefully she<br />
has a little growth spurt this summer, so she'll be ready!<br />
<br />
Paris loved her Jazz/tap class!! When it came time for choreographing<br />
the number they would do her teacher held a vote in the class on<br />
weather they would do a tap or a jazz dance. She said it was tied, but<br />
one girl was missing that day, so her vote would be the deciding vote.<br />
So obviously that girl chose tap. Paris had voted jazz, but was still<br />
happy, especially because she really likes the song. It makes me laugh<br />
though because in both of her dances, Paris knew the steps, but<br />
because the teacher stands off stage and does the dance for those that<br />
may forget, she looks over there, and misses steps sometimes. She did<br />
it perfectly at the show and didn't even glance at the teacher! We will<br />
get a DVD from the show later down the road.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
This is Evey's company (JDC) dance. I have loved her teacher and<br />
the choreography she does, it is very beautiful and Evey loves her too. <br />
Evey is hoping to move up to the next level company, CDC, at auditions<br />
in August. CDC does more dances per show and Evey is so ready for<br />
that! But you have to be 11, so this is just her year as far as advancing in<br />
dance!<br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/oRnKaVUOY_A" width="425"></iframe><br />
<br />
<br />
I hadn't seen any of the girls dances until the rehearsal. I just drop them<br />
off and pick them up. Evey's teacher had told me a while ago that she<br />
had a special part for Evey in her Jazz piece. This is the same teacher<br />
as JDC, Emily, and Evey said that Emily had told her she choereographed<br />
this piece with Evey in mind as the featured dancer. So when I saw this,<br />
I was crying like a baby. I would say it is from pregnancy hormones,<br />
but I'm not sure I can shrug this off on that this time! I was just so proud.<br />
She dances really well and had such a pretty smile! I think all of the other<br />
video taping mommies there at rehearsal thought I was crazy, bawling my<br />
eyes out. Hey but it wasn't bad enough that you can hear me on the video,<br />
so that's good!! Wink! <br />
Evey also got recognition from "the star" dancer at the show on Friday.<br />
We had left our makeup bag and hair straightener at the Covey center<br />
and when we found the bag on Friday, the straightener was gone, so I<br />
couldn't curl Evey's hair, so we had to go in the big girls dressing room<br />
to use one of theirs. When Angel (this is the most featured dancer in the<br />
whole studio!) saw Evey she said "oh, I love you!!" I think it was a great<br />
boost of Evey's confidence, but she is just so wonderful and humble,<br />
she didn't let it go to her head....I guess it went to mine!! <br />

It's been a crazy season, lots of rescheduled games for weather.<br />
I'm glad I waited though, They all played fantastic games!<br />
<br />
Paris has decided she likes playing again. I'm pretty sure it's<br />
because her friend's dad was their coach and her bestest friend<br />
was also on the team. At this level it starts to get harder to score,<br />
because the kids start getting it, and the numbers of kids starts to<br />
dwindle, it starts to become the kids that actually enjoy and want<br />
to play.She really did good at most of the games.<br />
Her favorite positions are defense and goalie, but she plays<br />
offense rather well too and has some super speed when she<br />
turns it on!<br />
She was really close to scoring a couple of times in this game,<br />
and had an awesome breakaway!<br />

Evey has just gotten better and better every season. As I said<br />
before it gets harder as they get into the older leagues, Evey<br />
is now in the highest league provided by the city. I guess it<br />
just goes to school teams after this and there are a few club<br />
soccer teams in the valley. Evey loves to play offense and<br />
is generally put as a forward. She is also one of the smallest<br />
in the whole league and it is so funny to see her show down<br />
with a huge girls that dwarfs her. She has no fear though and<br />
is awesome at being aggressive and charging. She has been<br />
so close so many times to scoring a goal, but either the goalie<br />
gets it, or it just misses. Her last game was a double header,<br />
and the team has never looked better! They worked so well<br />
together to move the ball, and coach was on top of giving them<br />
rests so that even in the second game they weren't overly tired!<br />
Well Evey got her goal in the first game, and I amazingly got a<br />
picture of it!! We were so happy we sent all of the family texts.<br />
Then not 10 minutes later in the next game, against a different<br />
team, she got another!! And I got a picture! Amazing!<br />
She was so happy and we were so proud!<br />

Lex is absolutely amazing! The kid is a natural at sports!<br />
He absolutely understands everything that is happening in the<br />
game and will help his team mates to know what to do, or help<br />
the coach to know who the ball went out on or whatever, he is<br />
just totally focused on the game and it is so fun to watch. His<br />
league is the beginning league, where there are a million kids and<br />
only a handful that really know what to do. Most of them don't follow<br />
the ball or cry if it touches them. There are 8 on a team and only 4 on<br />
the field at a time and no goalie (see why it's easier at this younger level)<br />
and the games are only 24 minutes long, so each kid would get to play<br />
for 6 minutes then rest for 6. Lex had a teammate that was awesome<br />
too and they would dominate! They would break away from the pack<br />
and run it down to score every time. The coach ended up trying to not<br />
play them at the same time because the score would end up being like<br />
15-0! But, we don't keep score in this league!! Lex's average goals were<br />
about 3. But sometimes would score as many as 6. We started telling<br />
Lex to help some of his other team mates, so he would pass them the<br />
ball or throw it to them. He was so good about it even when though he<br />
would usually end up having chasing it back down to get it to the goal.<br />
He is so fun to watch! Next up (no break, we are already playing) T-ball (Lex),<br />
Coach Pitch (Paris) and softball (Evey)<br />

Winter can't wait to play! She is such a good cheerleader. She shouts<br />
"go,go,go, (insert sibling)!!" I think she'll be great too, she loves to dribble<br />
the balls around on the sidelines and even understands that she can't cross<br />
the white line.<br />

or we go to the park on dance days, but I actually<br />
didn't have anything but the bank on the agenda,<br />
and it was pouring, so we laid down one of the<br />
seats put down some blankets (in the van for soccer<br />
games) and popped in a movie while we waited for<br />
Evey to come out of dance. They thought that was<br />
a ton of fun. I remember being able to make beds<br />
on the floor of cars on road trips when I was a kid,<br />
but now days that's a big no no, so this was something<br />
they hadn't really ever done before. It makes me excited<br />
for the summer when we can go to the drive-in, which<br />
we haven't done for a few years. Fun fun!<br />
