Winning is not about headlines and hardware [medals]. It's only about attitude. A winner is a person who goes out today and every day and attempts to be the best runner and best person they can be! Winning is about struggle and effort and optimism, and never, ever, ever giving up.

It's been a while, sorry!!

Wow, it has been a while and I am sorry about that. There has been a lot going on around here. Our major project lately has been getting a RV pad put in. It has taken a lot longer than we anticipated. It didn't go as smoothly as we pictured in our heads....but then when do they? We are finally done with it and I am so glad. The weather when we started was still rainy and that put a damper on things, and then it got extremely hot and that made it hard to want to go outside and work. Oh well, at least we are done and it is all behind us. Aaron did an AWESOME job on his very first retaining wall ever!!! It looks so good...I am so grateful to have married such a wonderful man who is able to do so many wonderful things!!!

In preparation for our new baby we have moved Caidin to a toddler bed!! I put him down for his nap today and I only had to put him back in bed twice! This is our first attempt and so I am very hopeful that it is a good sign. He looks so cute in his new little bed!! We got it from a fellow member of the Lehi Freecycle group. It is perfect. It is so fun to have all our kids in beds...the transitions have all been pretty easy....hopefully I haven't jinxed myself.

We are attempting to get Kilee out of diapers...that has proven to be a good challenge. She is excited to wear panties, but she occasionally forgets to get on the toilet. I am aiming to get her in panties by the time we have Marshall so that I don't have to worry about 3 little ones in diapers. Let's hope it works!!
