Kaiser fontana is the name of a city and a hospital.

Nelsons will certainly try to come out before christmas but we can't make any comitments since steve doesn't know when/if he will be working. He met with a guy yesterday who says he can get him another job at the VA(since steve's job ends the 25th of oct). Cross your fingers everyone!

I like my nephews. I don't know what my schedule will be like exactly, but it's a near certainty that I'll only be around a few of those days. I'll try to make it as much as possible.

Well, we are going to have the queen size bed up in BJ's old room, and the bunks that are currently there set up in the basement, so we can have our Provo kids come home (like most college kids do) for Christmas. We will likely have Grandpa a Saundra's for that week and Dastrups will get his space and Nelsons will take over the master bedroom, and Kim and I will take over BJ's room. BJ in the office, the boys downstairs on bunks...see it works for everyone to come home if they want to!!!! I am so excited! Wahooee!!! Christmas wasn't looking like something to anticipate much, but now it does!!

I'd really like to do it without having to banish Grandpa to Saundra's for a week. He likes to see our family too. I think we can do it. Squishy, but we can do it. Mom & I in bunks downstairs. Nelson's in our bedroom with little KF. Dastrups take the computer room and the end bedroom. Buff/Chad/Brett on the floor around the house for one night if they wanna stay the night. That works, doesn't it? Opinions?

I think we can all be in the same house. Remember when you were kids, your 10+ member family lived in a house the size of the computer room.

I think we can do it too... especially because I doubt we will all be staying the night at the same time. Us Nelsons are looking to come for probably 4 days around the 18th-22nd and my guess is that you provo people will only be staying in Cedar Hills just around Christmas.... am I right? Don't we also have a trailer? can it be heated?

Those poor Jehovah’s witnesses showed up at the door here again . They come here every few months or so. They rang the doorbell and my father-in-law (Craig) answered it. They asked if he'd like to talk about religion and he invited them in and said he'd love to. To make a long story short, he asked what makes the Jehovah's Whitnesses special and what was their "compelling doctrine". Their response was "well, we read the bible." Craig- "So do the Baptists, Catholics, and Mormons..... so what is special about your church" JW's- "we belive in Jesus Christ" Craig- "so do all of the Christians.... " JW's- "We preach the gospel" Craig- "Um... that still isn't original. Tell me why I should listen to you over anyone else" JW's- "Umm... I don't know..." Craig- "Well I'll tell you what the Mormon's compelling doctrine is that makes us different from everyone: We have ...

Deathly Hallows A box came in the mail on Saturday...it contained TWO copies of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows . One for me (happy birthday me from Chad) and one for Chad. I'm about 1/4 of the way through it. Do YOU have your copy?!? It's also officially my most hated time of year. Camping is over and it's HOT and even in the evenings it doesn't cool down much below 70 degrees. I can't wait for October, the best month of the year.

potty training done

Kiera is 100% in "tinkling" in her potty for 5 days now (except at night). I'd say potty training is done. I do have to say though that the transition from little potty to big potty was difficult (it didn’t help that Lydia was sick either). She would tinkle a tiny bit and then ask to go again 5-10 mins later all day long! Finally I was trying to make dinner and after being interrupted twice by her asking me to go (meanwhile my sick little Lydia cries hard when I leave the room with Kiera and if I bring her with she rolls around our nasty bathroom floor). So she came up and asked again “tinkles, mommy!” So I broke down and busted out the little potty and put her in front of the TV on it. I then picked up Lydia and nursed the poor little thing to sleep. Kiera tinkled quite and bit and was quite pleased with her self and pulled out the tray beneath the potty that holds the tinkles before I could stop her (I don’t run very fast when I’m holding a sleeping baby). Of cour...
