Father's Day

We had a great father's day. My mom and I made a scrapbook album for Erick and each of the grandpa's. It was a great surprise for them and they all loved it! We made the day special by letting Erick enjoy a nice simple day with no real responsibilities to deal with. We had one of his favorite meals (Shredded Beef Tacos with all the fixings) with our families at our new house. (I love love love my new house) and we had fun with Kaylie. It was a great day.

Yeah so I have been staying at home this week. I have to start by saying how much I admire you all who stay home everyday!!! You are amazing you deserve awards!!! I love the time I get to spend with Kaylie but I feel like 2/3's of my day consist of cleaning the house. It could just be because it is a new house and I'm still getting unpacked but seriously, it feels like all I have done. Kaylie and I did have fun though yesterday with a trip to story time at the library (She is still a little young but her elephant pictures she colored are so cute!!!) We also went and fed the ducks (I almost accidently typed dorks what a slip that would have been!) at the park. Kaylie can't quite get the crackers out of her hands to throw them so she ate them. Oh well I guess they were her goldfish. We have had fun this week even if it seems we have spent most of our time cleaning!!! I'm glad I had a little extra incentive to get the house clean today because the relief society pres. coming to visit. Nothing like guests coming to really make cleaning a reality. Now thats it!!!! I'm done cleaning for the day. I'm going to bake something. I love to bake. After that I'm going to make Kaylie bows so that she can pull them out of her hair. Kinda dorky I know but I love to do it.

I never know how to title these things!

This week was great! I finished my last week of teaching and school. I am so thankful. I'll be glad to have the summer off of CSUSB to prepare for my COMPS in the fall. Then I will have my Master's Degree. I'm excited. Erick Kaylie and I have been having a good time in our new house. We haven't quite gotten unpacked but that's okay. Now that I have some time off I should be able to get some done. We like our new ward. Its nice. Its fun. I'm glad to have a lot of other people that are my age and in a similar stage in life as me.
Kaylie has done quite a few cute things this week. Here are just a few of them.

• She "worked" out in the backyard with me and put leaves in a pile
• She "helps" make dinner
• She bounces in her bouncy chair to get to sleep
• She eats with a spoon
• She drinks from a cup

We moved into our new house. Erick and I love it!! It is nice and spacious. We haven't had a lot of time to unpack because Erick has had a crazy work schedule and I've had class two nights a week. But it is coming along slowly but surely. Kaylie continues to grow like a weed and learn so much every day. She keeps me busy and entertained all at once. We have a lot of fun together. I'm still working full time but get off next Wednesday which is a relief to me because I'm becoming grouchy teacher and I hate that feeling!!!! Erick has been installing his project at work and so that has meant the evening shift for him most nights. It is finally starting to get back to normal. All in all we are excited to be in our new house and just love it!!!
