Today was kind of a hard day. We all gathered up at Grandma and Grandpa Merrill's house for dinner and for the guys to give Grandma a blessing for her upcoming surgery. We found out this past Friday that she has cancer and will need to have a pretty serious surgery to have it taken care of. I'm still having a hard time accepting that she will need this. She has always been in such great shape and has always been very active, so I was very shocked to hear something was actually wrong.

More teeth!!!
So... I get a text from my sister today.... Kayden has another tooth and more on the way!!! He now has 9 teeth!!! This poor baby is getting them one after another!! We kind of thought something was going on because he has been a little crabby the last couple of days, now we know why! I set up his first dentist appt yesterday. He doesn't go for a few months but the first appt is just to get them used to going to the dentist anyways. The kids dentist is very kid friendly and the dentist is great, so hopefully things go well :)

April 16th, 2008
Today was a great... busy day!!! Today was my birthday. Anyone that knows me, knows that I hate attention. So, today was one of those days I didn't really want to go to work because everyone knew about it. Last year, I got out of it because I was working from home since Kayden was only a few months old. I came down stairs and Kailey and Bruce sang "Happy Birthday" and gave me presents, it was really cute! I get to work and was there for a couple of hours when I get a picture message with the picture below.
The message says "I came to see you on your birthday, come and get me." So cute and such a great surprise!!! Allissa brought the babies in to see me! Yeah!!!
For lunch of group of us from work went out to Blue Iguana for lunch. Yummy! Not on my diet at all but so good and worth it!
Kailey's dentist appt: Kailey had a dentist appt today for her 6 month check up. Not sure why I scheduled it today but oh well. She has a couple of teeth that didn't form all the way and since they are permanent teeth they have to fix them. She has to go back on the 29th to have them fixed. Kind of scary because they will be giving her laughing gas.... It makes me really nervous!
Next was Kailey's first day of Girl Scouts! She was so excited for this day to finally come! While she was at Girl Scouts, Bruce and I went and got take out from Famous Daves, took it home and ate. Yummy!!! Again... not on the diet, but oh so yummy!! After I picked up Kailey we got Cold Stone ice cream.
This was actually one of the better birthday's I've had in years, Bruce made it really fun this year! Now i'm done with getting attention for another year! Yeah!!! That is my favorite part :)

Grandma and Grandpa Merrill
Today we had dinner up at Grandma and Grandpa Merrill's house. They have been down at their house in St George so this is the first we've seen them for a while. We love them both and are glad they are back home so that we can see them more. Kailey was very excited when we got there because this was new people to tell that she was starting Girl Scouts! She also couldn't wait to play around on the piano. After dinner Grandma helped Kailey play some songs and showed Kailey how to work some of the fancy buttons. Kailey was loving every minute of it. Kayden also loves music and was soon was climbing up on Grandma so he could join in the fun :)
