It is time to Catch up

Hello in Blog Land. I haven't blogged since August. I say it is time for an update, right? Well, most of my new photos are now on my computer because I had to move them over from my phone, but the ones I have on my phone will have to do for now until I can get home and update from my computer with all the pictures.

But first, how about a family update?

Garett - He is growing like a weed. He wants to go to school so bad like his big brothers, but we keep telling him he will go next year. He can sing his ABC song and lots of other songs. He loves watching Zootopia and doing anything his brothers do. He loves playing outside and with Legos, even though he isn't supposed to. He loves his big boy bed, and is my most unpicky eater. He is in size 7 shoes, size 4 diapers and size 3T clothes.

Greyson - Loves Kindergarten and his teachers and friends. Kinda got off to a rough start, but had really adjusted and is learning a lot. He reads a lot of words already and loves to read with us at night and pick out the words he knows. He loves to play outside except for when a dog or cat is around. He is my best sleeper and will usually fall asleep really fast and sleep in the next day. He is in 5T and size Small Boy's clothes and size 10 shoes. He still has to wear a pull up at night, but is waking up more nights dry then wet nowadays, so it is getting better. He is my kid that knows what is wants, likes and isn't afraid to let you know his opinion. He also is very sensitive when he is doing something wrong and being disciplined. He doesn't like it when people are mad at him.

Gavin - He is doing so good a Dual Immersion Spanish and is really taking off with it. He struggles with Math, but once he gets a chance to do some homework he knows what he is doing and gets better at it. He loves reading his Chapter books and will sit down with Greyson and Garett and read to them. He loves to play outside and with Legos. He still wakes up super early in the morning, but that is just Gavin. He is in Medium Boy's clothes and size 12 shoes. He is really my get along by himself, entertain himself, play by himself boy. He will play with his brothers, but doesn't have to.

Mike - Mike left for training in Texas last week, so we are on day 10 without him. It has been crazy, lots of ups and downs, lots of firsts, and chaos, but we are getting through it, one day at a time. He has tests everyday he has to take and it has been going good, they haven't sent him home yet. He has a big text next week that he is really studying for and it is a big one, so pray for him to pass it so he can continue. We haven't come this far for him to be send home 2 weeks in!

Me - Still working, hoping Mike's first paycheck in November can help pay down some debts and I can quit my job the end of the year. Our babysitter graduates from school the end of December and wants to start looking for a job, so I will need to get something figured out. All my Christmas Shopping for the boys is mainly done and wrapped. I just have Mike, family and stocking stuffers left to get. Other than that, we are just plugging along.

So, that is a little update on us! I will post some specific things with pictures next :)

St. Patricks Day 2015

We went to the park after work on St. Patricks day.  Here are the boys playing at the park in their green!

And here is Garett in his "vintage" 2010 Green St. Patricks day shirt that Gavin wore in 2010 for this day as well.

Life Lately

This has been our life lately...

Jeep out and being used everyday, wagon out for walks and bikes available for riding when Mom gets home from work.  We have had fun playing outside! (And now I can't park in the garage because we have so much stuff in the way.  Our next project is to reorganize the garage for all the boys outside toys!)

An Unexpected Visitor

Weather guys in Utah have been claiming snow for a couple weeks now and it just hasn't happened.  It has been so nice outside when I get home from work, I let the boys go out to play (if they aren't sick) and they were loving it.  But this last weekend we saw the snow! And the boys loved it, until it melted the next day :(

Now it is too cold to go out to play anymore, and I'm not feeling good, so we will have to wait until it warms up again...

Valentines Day

This year Valentines Day was different.  I had to work that day to make up for all the sick time I had taken at work.  Greyson was getting better and Garett was getting worse.  But we made the most of it.  I got some flowers, Chocolate covered strawberries and a new curling iron.  I got Mike some Movies and the boys come chocolates and stuffed animals.  We ate Steak and Lobster that Mike made and it was yummy!

The boys had their Valentines Parties that week at School and we made these fun Play Doh printables to give to their classes.  Greyson didn't go to school for his party because we found out the day before he had RSV, so more rest and relaxing for him.  Gavin got a lot of stuff!  It was a good Valentines this year!

Together

I love it when these boys play together.  They are playing with Greyson's castle he got for Christmas.

New Suits

For Christmas, we got the boys new suits.  We got Gavin a Size 6 in boys, Greyson a size 4T and Garett a 12 Month.  Can't believe how fast they are growing.  They wore them to church yesterday so we had to capture it.  Gavin looks so good in a white shirt and pinstripes

These Boys

I love these 4 boys! I am so thankful for them in my life!

Garett is helping dad give Gavin and Greyson a bath

Same Hair

My boys have the same hair.  It is funny, and cute!

August Boys

August 2014 - Wallenberg Boys

Visit from Grandpa

Mike's dad came to visit us in August.  It was so great to see him and have him meet Greyson and Garett.  We haven't seen him in 4 years so it was a nice visit.  Here he is with the boys.

All three of the boys loved him and were so excited to have him the 3 days we got to spend with him.  We need to see him more often!

Boys

These boys! I love them (most the time)
