Last Wednesday Grandma Barker had a pool party at her house for all the grandkids. The water was so cold but most of them couldn't keep out. Ethan on the other hand just couldn't get in the water. Even I thought it was freezing and whenever the kids got out of the pool they immediately started shivering and had to wrap up in towels.

Ethan would the kids splash water on him but he would not have anything to do with the pool. It was so cold!

Ani had the best time playing and was as cute as ever.

Cannon was the man with the squirt guns. He got everyone all wet and despite his shivers refused to get out and get warm.

Poor little Quentin couldn't even pull the trigger on the squirt guns he was shivering so bad so he had to get out and warm up a few times during the party.

Little Abby was too little to get in the pool but her little hat was just the finishing touch on sweet outfit. What cute little girl.

This past Saturday my parents rode the Frontrunner up to Salt Lake to visit us. Jacob had to work so me and Ethan met them at the Gateway and we did a little shopping. It was so hot and Ethan was having a great time RUNNING everywhere. Thankfully we had bought him one of those little monkey backpack things that is also a leash and I promise that he only fell a few time when he got to the end of his rope! All the other kids there were having such a great time in the water fountain but I hadn't brought Ethan's suit. Well...they were on sale at Old Navy so we got him one and this is what happened!

This was before we bought his swimsuit and he was just watching the water shoot everywhere. He does this laugh where he just says "who who who" over and over again in this kind of chuckle. It is the cutest thing ever.

At first he was a little timid to get in the water because he couldn't quit figure out how and where it was coming from. I had to keep him from putting his face right in the hole in the ground so he wouldn't get a shot of water in the face.

After a little persuasion from me and Grandma Youngberg he finally got into it and had a lot of fun playing around and saying "hi" over and over again to the other kids.

What a cute little wet boy! He played for almost half an hour but after a shot of high pressure water up his shorts he was done and did not want to continue.

I know that it has been forever but trying to sell our home has been a real challenge. Not to mention moving and setting up a new one! But we are finally done and are some what put together at our new place. We found an apartment in North Salt Lake just 15 minutes from where Jacob works. It has been really nice for both of us to have him work so close. He no longer has to get up at 5:15 in the morning to get to work on time. And he is home by 3:15 before Ethan wakes up from his nap. We got a 3 bedroom 2 bath and it has been nice so far. Trying to adjust to apartment living after owning a home is different though. Anyway, I still do have some unpacking to do but thought that since we got internet today that I would make a short post. More later - and soon - I promise.
