The Nordfelt's

Lately I have been overcome by the sleep monster. If I don't get a nap everyday. I literally feel like I am going to die. Come dinner time....kill me already! I believe it's partially because I am 9 weeks pregnant. So I am busy creating life. And it is exhausting! I have never been this tired during a pregnancy before. It's borderline ridiculous. My Kanyon is such a great nap taker. He takes a three hour nap, from 12:50-3:30 everyday. I used to think I was a bit crazy and nazi-ish by being so strict about his nap time, until I read this... IT is the best! I haven't read it all, but I was skim reading several chapters last night and it tells me that I am not crazy for insisting on my child napping but smart! It also talks about the important of naps for adults! I now do not feel guilty for napping-nor do I feel lazy! I am literally a nicer, better mother if I get a nap. So all of you out there who think scheduled naps are silly (or who think putting your ki...

I posted more, but they are in chronological order. Scroll down to see them!

Kanyon got a new tricycle. Kanyon got a haircut because his hair is CrAzY! Kanyon insists on wearing his PJ's and sweater vest all day. If Kanyon is quiet it's because he is either getting into something, or he doesn't want his older brother to know he is playing with his DS.

Kye made the kids green eggs and green pancakes. There were no signs leprechauns, but KC insists that is who pulled up one of the tulips. I told KC if a "leprechaun" picks any more tulips, his DS will disappear. (KC picked our garden 4 times last summer...)

Kye turned 30 today! We had a party at the church on the 5th to celebrate with family and friends. All of our family and a few friends came. We ate dinner and treats. Here is the birthday spanking line! On Kye's actual birthday we celebrated with some delicious cake. The Tuckers came over to help us eat it. (The Tuckers get suckered in a lot to come over because they are our next-door-neighbors :)

Kye will kill me for this, but oh well! He was awarded employee of the quarter of the health department. He deserves it. His parents were planning on coming up the next day, so they surprised him and came a day early. My parents were on their way to St. George so they stopped by to surprise him too. We were all a surprise! When he stood up to accept his award, he saw us standing in the back and he took a double take and stared at us like a deer in head lights! IT was the best reaction ever! I wish I took a picture of it. He was purely confused! Congrats honey! Gay, Kirtly, Kye, Neil, Joyce

The entire month of February was read-a-thon time at the Elementary school. My kids worked their bottoms off to read enough minutes to get prizes and possibly one of the medals for being a top reader of their grade. Katelin read 1697 minutes and came in 5th place of all first graders. KC read 946 minutes, came in at 2nd place and won a silver medal! We were excited for him. (Everyone except Katelin. She was pretty sad she didn't win a medal. Next year girl---Max is going down! :) Here is Katelin and Morgan reading. They read for 1.5 hours during this "reading" playdate. I wonder which one is Kye Nordfelt's son?
