95 potty trained but that is a topic for another time whew anyway we have been able to meet up with many old friends and hangout with family like never before this will definitely be a fun summer i had to include the view of my parent s next door neighbor s incredible pool they are the kindest people and open it up to the whole neighborhood once a week erik is already hooked posted by amy mella at 6 58 pm 4 comments visits from the tias erik had not seen either of his tias in person since he was seven months old we had great visits and he remembers them by the items they had given him adrianne is remembered for her baseball blanket and natalie for her bat towel we love you guys and hope you visit again soon posted by amy mella at 6 25 pm no comments saturday may 2 2009 house pictures posted by amy mella at 12 44 pm 1 comment friday may 1 2009 our big move yesterday mike accepted a job offer where he used to work the energy and geoscience research institute at the u of u he has only been unemployed for two months but we have had a crazy roller coaster ride of emotions during that period we were sad but not surprised when micron announced the closure of its boise manufacturing plant we were kind of in denial at the beginning at exactly what this job loss would mean for us we were optimistic that we could make something work and stay in boise where we had planned on living for 10 years reality hit about a week later the job opportunities for chemical engineers had dried up in the boise area mike considered getting a teaching license to teach high school chemistry until the economy recovered but boise is having to let teachers go we knew we would have to leave our first home the wonderful ward and great neighborhood we had planned for erik and our future children to grow up in it was devastating i was mad then scared then just sad if you can t already tell i like to have a plan for everything basically my entire perspective needed to shift once i was able to accept the needed changes which took about a month life got easier i still had have hopeful and stressful and mundane days but over all things are much better i listened watched elder wirthlin s 4 min youtube video come what may and love it i highly recommend this great 4 min pep talk to remind you everyday to laugh and be optimistic recently my aunt and uncle who live here gave us an amazing book to read who moved my cheese it is a short 1 hour read it helped us to realize that change is inevitable and your attitude and actions regarding change determine the quality of your life i haven t been able to bring myself to update my blog about these recent changes in our lives until i knew i would be able to be positive we have our first silver lining with mike s new job and now we will just need to deal with selling or renting our house and moving in with my parents for a year i am optimistic that change will bring wonderful new cheese and i hopeful i will embrace it

first patchwork quilt and it turned out so stink n adorable erik loves it especially since she stitched his name on one of the baseballs he spells it out in the video it was perfect timing coming today because he just learned how to say his name this morning thanks audy posted by amy mella at 2 21 pm 1 comment thursday december 25 2008 christmas 2008 erik s little body could not contain his excitement over his new train kick kick kick posted by amy mella at 8 05 pm 1 comment wednesday december 3 2008 motherhood so it may be the season or the fact that erik just turned two or that i just read the christmas box but i wanted to reflect on the wonderful gift from my father in heaven which is my son i am so grateful for his health and how much he loves life he gets so excited by the smallest things he loves sprinklers fruit snacks splashing water kicking throwing balls the movie cars hide and seek with mommy wresting with daddy running free at the zoo or park and most of all anything that spins he wakes up so happy in the morning and without fail asks for daddy he finally said mama a few days ago and is starting to get a little bit cuddly i am amazed how fast time has gone and how small he used to be he has learned so much but i think i have learned more he notices everything which has helped me to more fully enjoy the little things in life such as running up and down a hill over and over that really can be fun i have learned a lot of patience and i m sure will have to learn more as time goes on i am grateful to be a mother what a wonderful gift posted by amy
