The Great Outdoors!


We had our ward camp out at Camp Ensign on the 1st and 2nd of August, and the kids both loved it. In all of our other wards they never had camp outs so we were all very excited! Quintin had so much fun playing with all of his friends, and Aleck just loved being outside. At night we played a fun game with the ward and then we watched the Princess Bride outside, along with roasting marshmallows. The next day we went to the lake and canoed, Quintin got a little "lake sick" on the canoe, the wind was really blowing so it was pretty rocky out there. He had fun playing in the lake though.

Memories.....

1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember! 2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you.

Preschool

Aleck started preschool the last Monday in February, I don't think I was ready, but he seems to be just fine:) Today he was going crazy waiting for the bus to come and get him, he was so excited! These are pictures from his first day of school- He has started saying cheese when I take his picture {if you couldn't already tell}. He had to show off his backpack. I felt so bad on that first day, he had been so excited to go on a bus, but I didn't tell him that I wasn't coming. When I handed him off he looked so scared, it broke my heart. I am so glad that he didn't start crying, I don't think I would have let him go if he had. He would hardly look at me as they were buckling him in. At this point I was holding in my tears- so I wouldn't make a fool of myself in front of my neighbors. {Oh boy, I sure love this kid}

What's Happening...

Last week was a long one Aleck had his first EUA (exam under anethisia) and I was just stressed, they thought that he had developed glaucoma and they also wanted to take a look at the development of his eyes. If he had glaucoma then they had also talked about operating, which freaked me out. But all went well he has no glaucoma and they said that nothing they saw was unexpected for a child with aniridia. We need to go and have another ultrasound of his kidneys to be sure that there are no tumors. Then we can rest for a few weeks before his next doctors apointment. I begining to feel like I should just live there! I took some cute pics of him at the hospital in his gown, I think everyone thought I was crazy sitting there taking pictures, but he was so adorable!
