Bruises, cuts, and more bruises


I am seriously beginning to wonder how my mother survived the antics of four boys! Taylor has become such a handful... every time I turn around, he is on the table- literally. Yesterday he managed to cut open the same eye twice within 5 minutes. I included a picture- notice the old bruises in various stages of healing across his forehead. The sad thing is that he isn't even two yet...
I managed to make it through my first official semester of Nursing school. i took my finals on Tuesday and am looking forward to two weeks off. Next semester is going to be even busier with the addition of clinicals. I am just going to have to take it one day at a time and realize that this too will pass.
The girls are great- they are such wonderful helpers with Taylor. Of course, they also love to chase him around and make him giggle. This seems to be their favorite game. They have decided that puzzles are great fun and we have recently put together two huge puzzles to hang in their room. One was 1500 pieces and the other was 1000. It took awhile but it was great family time and a good lesson in patience for the girls.
For those of you here in Utah, I am sure that you will agree when I say that I am really tired of the snow. Even the girls have started telling me that they're tired of it. This last week we finally started to see our grass- it's snowing again today! Oh well, how much longer can it possibly last? It has to get warm eventually... And we are all looking forward to it.

Boys certainly ARE a handful! And we agree - we're tired of the snow too. Before long, we'll be complaining that it's too hot. Such is life, I suppose! :-)
