The kids wake up and pretty soon the shout goes up throughout the house..."SNOW....SNOW...IT SNOWED!!" Then it is boots, hats, scarfs, swishy sounding snowpants, and gloves all over the house. The door slams and I dont see the kids for the next two hours as they mess up every bit of the fresh fallen snow! Then it is rosy cheeks and hot cocoa...wet socks from melted ice on the kitchen floor. <br /><br />P.S. Isn't Martie just gorgeous? I just want to squish her to bits she is so pretty!<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgU6PC808kHx-0yI-4tf_ofSTVzQOqkzZ-aaSd51wo6FKHskcMUp2hCYHc1WVpkxKo-pZmJoe1MVGz7RTIZhRe2fePZgCVzwamr-3JvjGti7OOOfX9lmS2SjbyANt8MakgAQPeZO6IqAmfd/s1600/Trav+Bday+007.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgU6PC808kHx-0yI-4tf_ofSTVzQOqkzZ-aaSd51wo6FKHskcMUp2hCYHc1WVpkxKo-pZmJoe1MVGz7RTIZhRe2fePZgCVzwamr-3JvjGti7OOOfX9lmS2SjbyANt8MakgAQPeZO6IqAmfd/s400/Trav+Bday+007.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410441029966009938" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN9O1u_IRrP8lVIFsSgh5lG1TYohbNXQuUPpRWK-UUeT-_9zEgoKPHG6O0EtNV0VJcj1HZJ7FmYDVRFeIsA3EYYwxiCYL5_qibDfIvL_cwC-e8UTrNmY1yqPrwUdR1RcgyclaoXtpk_hli/s1600/Trav+Bday+002.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN9O1u_IRrP8lVIFsSgh5lG1TYohbNXQuUPpRWK-UUeT-_9zEgoKPHG6O0EtNV0VJcj1HZJ7FmYDVRFeIsA3EYYwxiCYL5_qibDfIvL_cwC-e8UTrNmY1yqPrwUdR1RcgyclaoXtpk_hli/s400/Trav+Bday+002.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410441015469840290" /></a>The Petersen'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16002653882643347759noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1279721492509036544.post-88474496993346178152009-12-01T16:52:00.001-08:002009-12-01T17:06:55.071-08:00Trav's BirthdayTravis turned 5 years old a couple weeks ago!

Luckily, my mom was able to come visit this whole week and help me. Everytime I have a new baby, I am reminded of how great my mother is...there is NOTHING she won't do for me. She sewed, swept, cooked dinner, made cookies with my kids, did the laudry, grocery shopped and BEST of ALL...she is the most fun to be with, to visit with, to share a good laugh with. She listens to all my worries and reassures me. She hears me gush over my babies one minute and snap at them the next--and never judges me--just knows me. I love her! So THANK YOU MOM! I look at my little ones and I love them so much it almost hurts....and then I think to myself "that is how she felt about us...how she still feels about us" and I am so grateful! So here are some pics of our first week as a family of 6! <div><div><div> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjV7YWAeWHKgEn1252FmnQthr9OHfDu314O6LAdvyZvlfE_jLo2X7DVTb2kbusUFz7MtoCvbx99Cxc_ywZkQJRFJlB93qVlnxRNvIO4Y93njzGqyAFpEe1vkFQzjUcHtPjeDczglGyslGj9/s1600-h/Baby+004.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 300px; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391393743591882242" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjV7YWAeWHKgEn1252FmnQthr9OHfDu314O6LAdvyZvlfE_jLo2X7DVTb2kbusUFz7MtoCvbx99Cxc_ywZkQJRFJlB93qVlnxRNvIO4Y93njzGqyAFpEe1vkFQzjUcHtPjeDczglGyslGj9/s400/Baby+004.JPG" /></a></div><div>Kayli Bear so CUTE!</div><div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixbQnSjYOXILhCHPKXYgN99BLOU8j9O-A3Wk_8wN7JbeZO7WWqxGN5iIuidGKkRyGICTwfhzthtRK39-0BP62RvxoeSioNA9om_Aj4nyFQQCXdIl-5_xKIXkSbvi_Q-LWMW-H_5ybR-sNi/s1600-h/Baby+026.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391393778402376434" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixbQnSjYOXILhCHPKXYgN99BLOU8j9O-A3Wk_8wN7JbeZO7WWqxGN5iIuidGKkRyGICTwfhzthtRK39-0BP62RvxoeSioNA9om_Aj4nyFQQCXdIl-5_xKIXkSbvi_Q-LWMW-H_5ybR-sNi/s400/Baby+026.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjx864sFDp-qJ9dEhJ05GEUR-OE2aD4TZ6joXTuidWLhcJ9mIBzhH5gIWiFY0Xl9zxd9em0TctP2M_kAh7-JAORUPNb34i44DeTkSeKbEKlg7Bu5GrVczk9VMM7Rwbu1vge0D1UZpbTv_w/s1600-h/Baby+023.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391393767633436802" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjx864sFDp-qJ9dEhJ05GEUR-OE2aD4TZ6joXTuidWLhcJ9mIBzhH5gIWiFY0Xl9zxd9em0TctP2M_kAh7-JAORUPNb34i44DeTkSeKbEKlg7Bu5GrVczk9VMM7Rwbu1vge0D1UZpbTv_w/s400/Baby+023.JPG" /></a><br />Napping in the window!</div><div> </div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEsEI1GGdOKZ88HCo-cQDhDurvt4kUDUeB6Y1ABfEENYEBnYd3qSQe3Vkfcf1rjTbW6y184WQg2r6Fq_Fs6UhNzk1IwZHvxP1rPbQ8TKlwWPGYTqhfOdxD8L_JjKXAgInIj_tGu0fWlhKJ/s1600-h/Baby+006.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391393753188678162" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEsEI1GGdOKZ88HCo-cQDhDurvt4kUDUeB6Y1ABfEENYEBnYd3qSQe3Vkfcf1rjTbW6y184WQg2r6Fq_Fs6UhNzk1IwZHvxP1rPbQ8TKlwWPGYTqhfOdxD8L_JjKXAgInIj_tGu0fWlhKJ/s400/Baby+006.JPG" /></a></div><div>Can you IMAGINE---I said to Jeff what if they were all real?</div><div>He didn't like that thought!

Yes, that is right, and legitimatley so I might add. So at the beginning of my pregnancy during my first Dr.'s appointment, I let it be known (very loudly and clearly) that I did not want to know my weight. That I would take part in their little weigh-in humiliation sessions at each visit, but that I in NOOOO WAY wanted to know the results! So each appointment, I step on the dreaded scale (you know the noisy Dr.s office kind--hate em) backwards and listen as the nurse clunks the scales around. WELL, today I officially reached my ninth month of pregnancy and went to my appointment. Like a dutiful patient I walked backwards to the scale, stepped on the scale backwards, and waited silently for her to finish the torture...As I stepped off...I hear the NUMBER roll off her lips..."NOOOOOOOOOO" I screamed in slow motion movie type fashion...............<br /><br />but it was too late...<br /><br />the worst part---Jeff brought me a chocolate cream pie home yesterday and I was planning on eating it for lunch.

Today, as we were driving to the library Travis was telling me all the superhero names that he has assigned to the family. They are as follows...<br /><br />Jeff--Strongman<br />Caleb-Stretchman<br />Martie--Firegirl<br /><br />He then notified me that he was Fastboy...<br /><br />I was patient while I waited for him to assign me my totally AWESOME superhero name...<br />after a moment of pondering he said...<br /><br />"well, mom, i guess you could be like cookgirl."<br /><br />So EVERYONE else in the family gets a really cool superhero name and after racking his brain all Trav can come up with for me is cookgirl? You always no where you stand with Trav...I'm not fast, flexible, or cool in anyway...to him my value is in cooking. Does this please me? I do not know, but what do you think of my disguise?<br /><br /><br /><p> </p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFzRuJgxVUN2TWsYFT5tGs7Wy2W-UzEdKkuyAVlikN6fzCxq7fvM_6JHhNFxo4ATJld-p-DIBFqb2TuTNv3HD_mnxYkAqJ1FgLMStipx_Pwq3EN8awKWnPKEyQs8w8OlzY8i7AcuNaJE79/s1600-h/School+and+hero+011.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374431664092930482" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFzRuJgxVUN2TWsYFT5tGs7Wy2W-UzEdKkuyAVlikN6fzCxq7fvM_6JHhNFxo4ATJld-p-DIBFqb2TuTNv3HD_mnxYkAqJ1FgLMStipx_Pwq3EN8awKWnPKEyQs8w8OlzY8i7AcuNaJE79/s400/School+and+hero+011.JPG" /></a>The Petersen'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16002653882643347759noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1279721492509036544.post-51610309590955786552009-08-23T18:08:00.000-07:002009-08-23T18:31:23.346-07:00Back to School Dinner!So in honor of school year 2009-2010 (which starts tomorrow WOOHOO!!!) I decided to throw a "Back to School" dinner complete with cafeteria trays, pop quizzes, and crayons! The kids seemed really excited. The kids pretend punched in their lunch codes, grabbed their trays, and were served up "lunch lady"style (minues the hair net)! We all sat down to eat, blessed the food which Caleb said isn't like real school, and dug in.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAs5RBabVpA4qk2-rD5iadV2E_UXz1mIthM4gjPNs0QAxWJrLBz448pCB7BBGMMaq5i_StVpHQtHc7U9zVw3Z7UsQCaZ-7GqvrdT17Qdnr9yLBBy2p7Z13FuHUngD30GU7spV_hrmrJ4RJ/s1600-h/Back+to+School+Night+%26+Zoo+026.JPG"><img style="WIDTH: 400px;

After days and days of packing (Grandpa Mike's gift/curse), we left Nampa and headed up through Idaho City, Lowman, etc. and into the Sawtooth National Recreation Area. PRETTY!! The drive was a little rough for a family with notorious carsickness and a very pregnant woman, but we made it--with only one melt down from Trav---who refused to buckle in his car seat and then after being forced in, sent me seething glares from the backseat for the remainder of the trip. You don't force Trav into doing anything unless you want to make an enemy for life.</div><br /><div> </div></div></div></div></div></div>The Petersen'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16002653882643347759noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1279721492509036544.post-83606490905834754642009-08-17T11:38:00.000-07:002009-08-17T11:49:39.713-07:00Summer StuffThis summer Jeff was really busy...he spent about 11 weeks out of the summer gone from home...so the kids and I have pretty much been on our own. We did find ways to entertain ourselves though. Our first visit was to Nampa to stay at Grandma and Grandpa Petersen's house for a few days. The kids had a blast playing with the dogs and we went to a nice kid oriented swimming pool that isn't far from their house. Then at the end of June we traveled to Bonners Ferry for a visit to Grandma & Grandpa Carey's house. It was so fun. We went swimming alot, floated the river, played at the 59 property, and had a great 4th of July. I think the highlight for my kids was a big ol' slip n' slide that my dad made up at his property---it was a hit and is still the first thing the kids mention about what they liked this summer. Caleb and I both had a first this summer...I shot a 45. handgun for the 1st time and Caleb got to shoot a 22 and a 17 rifle for the first time. Good times. Jeff joined us in BF for a few days to play and then we drove home and he left for a few weekds again! Our last big hurrah of the summer was for our camping trip up in the Sawtooth Mountains. We stayed at Stanley Lake Campground and it was really nice. With Caleb's constant whistling, Trav's constant farting, and Martie's constant "squalking" after 4 days I was ready to come home---and i think the rest of the campers were ready for us to leave. It was so much fun though. School starts on Monday and I am super glad! I will get to hear a little less about Star Wars and force fields, and get to spend a little more time getting ready for our new baby (which is due in about 8 wks.)!!!!!!!The Petersen'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16002653882643347759noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1279721492509036544.post-18021086325851896562009-06-15T12:00:00.000-07:002009-06-15T12:16:53.891-07:00I'm back!<div> So it has been a while since I blogged, mostly because I've been lazy and also because sometimes everyday just seems the same, but you know what they say..."No news is good news." <div><div><div>Here are some fun pictures I took of the kids during the one "non-rainy" day we've had this month. </div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ16UTyns23cC66dionaVYfONX-9q0NC6Aj7H2l5HyLpCwiHVhShz2e-3vxiHSj7uWEltrMH9ETxJWXxGmRNjbUVLc6fwL8GhgMx1Bvye1fk_0ho11ksWqqC-zBwGUFxyP3jyyKjsN8ZNj/s1600-h/6-15-09+104.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347634933670165618" style="WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZ16UTyns23cC66dionaVYfONX-9q0NC6Aj7H2l5HyLpCwiHVhShz2e-3vxiHSj7uWEltrMH9ETxJWXxGmRNjbUVLc6fwL8GhgMx1Bvye1fk_0ho11ksWqqC-zBwGUFxyP3jyyKjsN8ZNj/s400/6-15-09+104.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWWmyZdU4HXLOtz7mQJYX59IGHNZWY6pH0FXEPC3fvGWNdG03-dZl8ftdhGQoWUFyA0l7ji5AWCabTNY2LclCW7fnvViFTo1ZRnSrqe2sZ1DXow7G0Wgf7y6aLvD1eGD19SmQJp1oM16pC/s1600-h/6-15-09+095.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347634927558308946" style="WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWWmyZdU4HXLOtz7mQJYX59IGHNZWY6pH0FXEPC3fvGWNdG03-dZl8ftdhGQoWUFyA0l7ji5AWCabTNY2LclCW7fnvViFTo1ZRnSrqe2sZ1DXow7G0Wgf7y6aLvD1eGD19SmQJp1oM16pC/s400/6-15-09+095.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLQjJch0P_Ve1NWEP_-jKI7pSDVsgVGh4Vx84OAWW5qlL04ts-LqNXFoYGgZcAFqR15uRxu40fB7F1p_bciS8TgN900pysPt_URwTzBYnq1ni-yomkXywey72H6peq7liRvsKrWa5QC2jS/s1600-h/6-15-09+086.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347634925736945042" style="WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLQjJch0P_Ve1NWEP_-jKI7pSDVsgVGh4Vx84OAWW5qlL04ts-LqNXFoYGgZcAFqR15uRxu40fB7F1p_bciS8TgN900pysPt_URwTzBYnq1ni-yomkXywey72H6peq7liRvsKrWa5QC2jS/s400/6-15-09+086.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje0dSSMkmCu5AuG3w7AfqiCEQUiOi0_VYejGNJ42mu63YEROsaYU_b2k9acw8TtIoS4gWhZD4xssSO4mDzF_4LmAPIr9uxLHGoVLF7qYqAc3u0t9ng0PPkEn1uyFwb-YN_ZiaebCsb2P2r/s1600-h/6-15-09+049.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347634918158840690" style="WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje0dSSMkmCu5AuG3w7AfqiCEQUiOi0_VYejGNJ42mu63YEROsaYU_b2k9acw8TtIoS4gWhZD4xssSO4mDzF_4LmAPIr9uxLHGoVLF7qYqAc3u0t9ng0PPkEn1uyFwb-YN_ZiaebCsb2P2r/s400/6-15-09+049.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>The Petersen'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16002653882643347759noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1279721492509036544.post-56615143651636017742009-05-27T10:46:00.000-07:002009-05-27T10:48:51.291-07:00Baby # 4 is a due October 15th and is a...................................................................................................<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size:180%;color:#cc66cc;">GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!</span><br /><span style="font-size:180%;color:#cc66cc;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:180%;color:#cc66cc;"></span>The Petersen'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16002653882643347759noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1279721492509036544.post-81301681760550570892009-04-13T18:10:00.000-07:002009-04-13T18:27:08.576-07:00All birds in the choir...Are you sure?So Travis has been sick for the last few days...it is quite an interesting illness though because although he has been a close personal friend of what we call the "barf bowl" he is also still able to jump on the trampoline, participate in a waterfight, ride his bike and kill aliens with his jedi force. I have been trying to find the trigger for this random throwing up with no luck UNTIL last night...read on...<br /><br />After I have tucked the kids into bed, retrieved water bottles, accompanied them to the potty, sorted out blankets, flashlights, and so forth...I am always called back in for one more bedtime request---SONGS! My kids love to sing bedtime songs. I snuggled Travis up in his blankets, knelt by his bed and began my concert (which included "To Be With You" by Mr. Big, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Stand By Me) well I had just broken into my rendition of "Lean on Me" when Travis leans over the bed and clutches for his "barf bowl".<br /><br />Me to Trav: Are you sick Trav?<br /><br />Trav: a blank look<br /><br />Me: Where does it hurt?<br /><br />Trav: blank<br /><br />Me: What is wrong?<br /><br />Trav: YOUR SINGING....IT IS MAKING ME SICK.<br /><br />Me: MY SINGING is making you ill.<br /><br />Trav: head nod<br /><br />Well case closed. Apparently, I am so awful at singing that it has the power to physically make my child throw-up. See this is why I lip sync the hymns in church.The Petersen'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16002653882643347759noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1279721492509036544.post-84172693570661585452009-03-31T07:46:00.001-07:002009-03-31T09:33:18.373-07:00Martie's Birthday!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_pqu9So12uXPCiRWCACPVEMZWXdBxs_ReaBRjH4OcDkZp7dskfoqJxtv_3btA82UKXPWVVvXib4GYOOOKP-lA9iobsBTwD1MVCP-2wuZsL5lyOF1_Oun2D9tfaNP9F1kixryEilFp7gkL/s1600-h/3-30-09+076.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5319369095514245026" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_pqu9So12uXPCiRWCACPVEMZWXdBxs_ReaBRjH4OcDkZp7dskfoqJxtv_3btA82UKXPWVVvXib4GYOOOKP-lA9iobsBTwD1MVCP-2wuZsL5lyOF1_Oun2D9tfaNP9F1kixryEilFp7gkL/s400/3-30-09+076.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />Time goes so fast!

As I lay in bed this morning listening to the birds chirp with sunlight streaming through the window I thought "Why not start spring break early?" As this idea took root in my head, I began rationalizing all the reasons why I should lay in bed and enjoy the morning...<br />The little devil on my shoulder was telling me...<br />1. Caleb never misses school... so what does one day matter?<br />2. He has never even been tardy.<br />3. Waffles sound delicious and if he goes to school there won't be time.<br />4. It's going to a gorgeous spring day and it will be fun to do some things together.<br /><br />The little angel on my shoulder was telling me...<br />1. A good mom would set an example for her children and make them go to school<br />2. He has all next week off...<br />3. There might be something fun at school he will miss out on<br /><br />So who did I listen to?<br /><br />I love waffles...<br />I laid in bed for a bit longer than got up to make breakfast not only did we have waffles, but homemade hashbrowns too. After I got breakfast cleaned up I was putting something away in the closet and it was then that a little envelope laying on the piano caught my eye...<br />CLASS PICTURES TODAY!!!!<br />Crapola---"Caleb get pants on" I shouted! "and get pants for Martie and Travis too" I barked! ok yes we are ready to go...we made our mad dash to school only 40 minutes late with Travis wearing only pants & a ketchup goatee, Martie wearing jeans from last year (high waters) & a rats nest of hair, Caleb holie jeans and lame hand-me-down shirt, no hair combing & possibly no teeth brushing. Me--bleach stained sweats, no bra, crazy bed hair, and smears of sticky maple syrup on my ratty old sweatshirt. hahahaha<br /><br />I HAD to get him there for his class picture---i couldn't let one small indulgence---one random time I decided to listen to the little devil ruin the meticulous image I've created of myself as a responsible, dedicated mother!!! ONLY MY CHILDREN WILL KNOW THE TRUTH!! and who would believe them?<br /><br />Needless to say, I'm very curious to see what his class picture will look like...he will probably be teh stinky kid today...oh well.

He was really excited about it. Grandma & Grandpa Carey, Grandpa Mike, Aunt Kathy, Kevin & Tiffany, Kim, and Sommers came. It was so special to see him take this step in his life. I asked him afterwards if he felt any different and he said..."Not much." Funny kid. Jeff baptized & confirmed him and the Grandpas' were the witnesses. Grandpa Carey also gave a talk on baptism and Grandma Carey said the opening prayer. It was a great day. After the baptism, we all went to Caleb's basketball game (it wasn't the best game)...then came home for some yummy food. I am so grateful to be Caleb's mom...he is such a good example to me. One thing I especially admire about Caleb is how much he cares about other people. When he hurts someones feelings or does something that isn't right---you can see how sorry he is--its written all over his face. He tries really hard to be good and he is so helpful at home. I love Caleb!<br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div>The Petersen'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16002653882643347759noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1279721492509036544.post-43197250485480806472009-02-24T08:48:00.000-08:002009-02-24T08:50:10.559-08:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBZVrC8WU0YKKqa3s5ZYstXY8FKWu3mNWXJxth1rxqTdHSzRN_f-WWuhV_L8kXC9YSl_6uOQZQcFl9Rl0QbdTGzOcM-41GCubulU9ovTq8fAaj9Y-i54Os6JLSbgQ868caY2_SqMidglq_/s1600-h/017.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306407036217913442" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBZVrC8WU0YKKqa3s5ZYstXY8FKWu3mNWXJxth1rxqTdHSzRN_f-WWuhV_L8kXC9YSl_6uOQZQcFl9Rl0QbdTGzOcM-41GCubulU9ovTq8fAaj9Y-i54Os6JLSbgQ868caY2_SqMidglq_/s400/017.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Us...on a typical day...except I'm not in pajamas and I showered.</div>The Petersen'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16002653882643347759noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1279721492509036544.post-90639667121085721622009-02-24T08:39:00.000-08:002009-02-24T08:46:52.150-08:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOT45s109LVxAjAkVo65dozzFoQBZbrS8js4g7uWnF1iCLWcunlG0cGuoHje6ly3FIXQb0oIhyAnR6yQuBu76tL6dO4lJGwjmR5lLhQya09hTC_bcsZ4H-aj3JdXn6eyWC9B72Ks9OFs5r/s1600-h/032.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306405504678960914" style="WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOT45s109LVxAjAkVo65dozzFoQBZbrS8js4g7uWnF1iCLWcunlG0cGuoHje6ly3FIXQb0oIhyAnR6yQuBu76tL6dO4lJGwjmR5lLhQya09hTC_bcsZ4H-aj3JdXn6eyWC9B72Ks9OFs5r/s400/032.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6m813mpgSCUlwRmOAuE8cuqbGkZbKuBw5SLmB5XFaVYhxwndBhTz0yQ4CcKjVqbEOTXkesvuyE1sPWDrkKi5GeQ9gRLGbquDrxDikgjWEfYB1wHZJFPOeOJegRK8_bwuibO8KUJhpgItH/s1600-h/031.JPG"></a><br /><div>Travis and I had been fighting yesterday...so I sent him to his room for like the billionth time...when I went back to check, this is what I found. </div><div>Then I <span style="font-size:180%;color:#cc0000;">celebrated!</span> <span style="font-size:78%;">but quietly....</span></div></div>The Petersen'shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16002653882643347759noreply@blogger.com0
