We went on a field trip with Anne's preschool class to the BYU paleontology museum. I can totally remember going there when I was in preschool.
We also got to go to the new children's museum at Thanksgiving Point call the Museum of Natural Curiosity. The kids loved it and have been asking to go back ever since.
Nathan had to have custom orthotics made for his feet to the tune of $380. He is able to walk and run so much better with them in his shoes. Hopefully they will make a big difference for him long term.
BYU held a Fan Fest at our city park. We were already there for Sawyer's soccer game that morning so it was an easy trek over to the festivities. The kids went on the bounce houses and slides and got their faces painted. Sadly, Anne was too scared to do stunts with the cheerleaders. We got autographs from players like basketball star Tyler Haws, two BYU women's soccer players and some football players. At the football area, Emma was responding to a text. Bronco Mendenhall asked her if it was a boy or girl. When she responded it was a boy, he proceeded to ask her a bunch of questions about how he treated her. It was so great. I wish I had it on video. At the end, Anne got hit in the face with a soccer ball, so they gave her one to take home. Our soccer-playing kids were quite jealous.
I had to take another glucose test at 28 weeks. Gestational diabetes round two has arrived sadly. My numbers are really not good this time around. They already have put me on a low dose of glyburide which still isn't quite controlling my morning numbers. Because of the diabetes, this baby will be making his arrival at least one week early.
Dana was in town for some training. She and Keri were kind enough to come meet me up at Emma's soccer game in Layton. I took a few headshots of Dana in a beautiful field of weeds. We went out for a delicious dinner after Emma's disappointing loss.
We were lucky enough to be invited over to Grandma and Grandpa Daniel's house for dinner a couple of times. Anne threw us a delightful "grown up tea party" one evening.
Nathan was awarded his Wolf in Cub Scouts. I got to Pack Meeting 5 minutes too late to see him get the award because of Sawyer's baseball game. We recreated the moment though.
Emma went with her best friend Annie to St. George for the Memorial Day weekend. She's been gone a lot and will be gone most of the month of June with soccer and choir stuff. I hope she is having lots of fun. We do love seeing her when she is home although she is usually somewhere checking her Instagram feed or texting her friends. She finished up her 8th grade year with a 4.0 and seems to be doing really well, despite the usual teenage angst that shows up here and there.
