Top Heavy

At Corrine's last doctors appointment, we discovered the reason for constant bruises, bumps and cuts on her face and head. She is off the charts for weight, as in waaaay under. She is also off the charts for height, under as well.

But her head is in the 45 percentile.

Her noggin is just huge compared to the rest of her, which must make her extremely top heavy.

Which explains why she falls so often, why she so often looks unbalanced when she walks, and why her cute little face is frequently sporting a boo boo of some sort.

She is always falling; off of things, into things, on top of things, you get the idea.

Poor Corrine.

You will grow into your head soon.

Daddy to 4 girls=the coolest toes.

And they are even three different colors. And yes, he will leave them like that until they wear off. Jason isn't afraid to do this, he is fully confident in his masculinity! He is such a good daddy to our daughters. They love him so much, and so do I.

How does blush taste?

I couldn't tell you, you would have to ask Corrine. I sure am glad it comes out of white bathroom rugs easily, though. Also notice the knee high Corrine is sporting on one foot. Clearly a diva.

A broken foot.

When my brother and sister in law came to visit for Christmas, PJ had a broken foot. Ava thought she would also give her horsey a broken foot, in honor of her Uncle Paul.

Corriney kisses.

We have all become tongue kissers, courtesy of Corrine. For some reason, she thinks she needs to stick out her tongue when she kisses you, so you get a full on wet kiss from her! It is so cute though, we all kiss her anyway, even my germophobic tween.

Random Thought

So I am driving down the road today, and I get the sudden insane urge to direct my car towards oncoming traffic. I wanted to ram the car coming towards me. Not in a violent way, but a laughing, having fun, child like way.

No, I am not suicidal.

After I examine where that urge came from, I start laughing. Coming towards me in the opposite lane was one of those bright red smart cars.


Sure looked an awful lot like a bumper car.

A New Chapter

We got some news last week that have definitely changed things for our family. The company that Jason works for laid off everyone in the Pocatello office except Jason. They told him that they like him and would like him to come work for them in Salt Lake City, and gave us 6 months to put things in order to get there.

This was extremely generous of the company, and we are very grateful for it. It means our girls can finish out the school year, finish dance, we have time to sell the house, etc. We have time to adjust to the idea and to get things ready.

We knew this might be coming, the office hasn't been doing well. Even though we knew it was a possibility, it was still somewhat of a blow. The older girls took it kind of hard, though they are starting to get excited. We will miss our friends, and it changes things for my career. We love our home, neighborhood and ward. We will miss being close to our families.

But.

Jason has a job. With a good company who values him. In this economy, that can't be looked over or taken for granted. We know that we are blessed to be looking at moving instead of looking for a job. We like the Salt Lake area, and Jason has family there that we will be happy to be closer to.

So it is with saddened but grateful hearts that we prepare for this new chapter in our lives. I am even starting to get a little excited about the whole thing. We hope to have our house sold and be in SLC together as a family in June. I really don't want to be living here, waiting for our house to sell, while Jason works in SLC during the week. So if anyone knows anyone looking to buy, we have a great house that we have loved living in!

And of course, my blog will stay the same, and I will love being able to keep in contact with all of you that way.

Salt Lake City, here we come!
