well alot has gone on since my last post. the kids finished school, dance, and many other things. i will try to go in order...

nadya celebrated her 8th birthday and had quite a birthday week. we were all caked out for sure. she got her ears pierced and had a friend birthday party and was also baptized and confirmed by her dad on june 5th. she was so excited and received a new set of scriptures and had some awesome pics taken at the Ogden Temple by stacie (which turned out adorable!). the whole birthday was deemed the best yet!! nadya and hannah also had their dance recital and they both did awesome! nadya will return next year to dance again, but hannah has chosen to try her hand at something different next year.

christian graduated from preschool and is soooo excited to start kindergarten at west weber. on may 26 he had his tonsils and adenoids taken out and he actually recovered quite well. he was up and wanting to run by the third day. he quickly grew tired of video games and movies and even popsicles!! we wondered whose child this was, but it was a relief to have it over with and he is now sleeping very quietly, much to chase's relief. he played teeball again this year and loves it. he signed up for soccer for next fall and can't wait.

a few days after christian's surgery my grandpa hancock passed away. he was a great man and anyone who knew him loved him. his service was wonderful and all the family was there to celebrate his life. we will miss him and love him very much.

hannah finished out her 5th grade year with her fourth straight quarter of straight A's and also made peer leader for her 6th grade year. she is very excited and can't wait for her new sister to come soon.

the baby is doing well, we have decided to name her mya leigh blanch. i am about 34 wks along and if all goes as usual, i will probably deliver within the next 3 wks. i never go full-term and the doctor does not expect me to with her either so we shall see.

more to come later....
