Dave Got Hit

Well since Dave isn't gonna tell what happened to him I guess I will....
He was up in SLC at Trolley Square in the parking lot waiting for a space to open up on his left. In the meantime an SUV was backing up on his right. I guess the guy forgot to look behind him. Dave saw him backing out and honked so the guy would see that he was there. He didn't have anywhere to go since there was a truck ahead of him and couldn't move. Sounded like the SUV guy may have hit the gas instead of the brake. This is the result. Dave also had a friend in the passenger side, so lucky for them no glass broke or airbags didn't deploy. Anyway, I guess the friend was a little scared and tried to scoot over as far as he could.
The SUV guy didn't even feel bad about hitting Dave since it wasn't his car or insurance. As it turns out he was off to catch his flight so he was driving a rental car. Oh well. The rental company seems to be taking care of it. Not sure if the whole door will need to be replaced or what but while it is getting fixed Dave will have a rental to use.
So the good news is no one was hurt. Bad news is of course our car needs repair.
Yeah, so my little scratches are nothing compared to this. If you missed that story you can click HERE

Stephen and Shanelle, Me, Dad and Linda, and Dave. We are so glad you were able to come out and visit. We miss you!

 

The boys: Zach in the green carseat, Sean to the right and Braedon on the treadmill.
Zach and Braedon's blessing day.

Wednesdays appts.

Zach had his 2 month check up, while Bridget went in for her 2 Year...
Bridget's stats: 32" which puts her at 10% for height and 22 lbs. at 3%.
Zach's stats are: 22 1/2" which is 25% and weighs 11 lbs 3oz. which is 50% for kids his age. Yep my kids are small, but at least Bridget still made the chart!
Both are doing great.

Our Funny Girl

Just thought I'd share a few funny things about Bridget. Her birthday is coming up on the 29th and she will be 2. She's a talker but it's not always super clear and still has a hard time with words. Sometimes she will mix the letters around... example: she calls grandma "maga". The one that cracks me up is what she calls Amberlee-- "gaga" I guess she isn't even going to attempt it. She is such a funny girl. She was in the kitchen with me yesterday as I was deboning the chicken for dinner, and as I put it in the bowl she was taking some out to eat saying "I try". It was pretty funny but maybe it was a 'had to be there' moment. Then she was sitting on the floor in the kitchen singing(which she loves to do), then she started putting her head in her shirt and popping it out playing peek-a-boo with herself.

Cutie messy girl after some yummy chocolate pudding! (And no smiles for the camera of course)
Also in the photo you'll see she is putting her shoes on the wrong feet. After they were on she noticed the problem..so she switched them. Travis STILL has a problem figuring out which shoe goes on the right foot. Oh well, hopefully he'll figure it out before he goes to school.
She is our sweet, lovey girl and has Dave wrapped around her finger.
