Hailey loves her new toys from her birthday. We got her a princess tent and she loves to climb in and out of it. I tried to make a tent with our couch cushions and blankets, but they tip over, not that the tent doesn't tip over, but I don't worry about her suffocating now.
The aligator pool came from Uncle E. The water was so cold in the pool. We will have to connect the hose to the hot water heater and put it out the window next time, she was shaking from the cold and still didn't want to get out.
Preston is now 4 months old. He is so much more interactive and will smile to "blah,blah,blaah!" I love having a baby in the house now. His happy squeals and little baby noises always put me in a good mood.
Dave started into the MBA program this week and I am now feeling that pains of being alone. We are living in my parents basement and this ward is more "well established" and there are really no young couples, hardly any kids at all.In Sacrament Meeting when a kid screams, it is mine! I am dying to find a playgroup to take Hailey to or something to do. Any ideas of how I could find one?? I walked to the park this morning with the kids and there were all these moms in a group chatting while their kids played, I wanted to be in their group, it felt like the awkward junior high moments were playing all over again in my head! They were all deeply involved in their conversations to notice me and I couldn't get a word in edgewise, and then my phone rang, it was a friend from Pleasant Grove, just calling to say that she missed me. I wanted to cry. I now remember why I hate moving so much! So if any of you have any great ideas, please send them my way.

OHH. I am sorry that is so hard. Things will go smoother with a little time. My neighbors have a play group on Thursdays at 10:30. I am sure you could come sometime.
That princess tent looks like fun! And Preston is way cute too. I totally feel your pain about feeling out of place after the move. I've been trying really hard to be involved and have friends here. We've got a great play group which is awesome. Keep trying though - you will find a group! I don't know if this organization really functions inside of Utah since the Church is such a strong support, but I've heard of momsclub.org - this group has established different "chapters" throughout the country. And basically it's a play group. I've been considering joining one out here to have some interaction in the community. Just a thought!
I am sorry you are feeling alone. I went through a couple months of that when we moved. It is sad, but it is starting to get better. We need to get together, Jackson asks to go to Hailey's house all the time. We love you.
Thanks for your comments, I love all the photo's you guys have up. Fun, fun. It's too bad that you're feeling lonely these days, I hope that you find some people to keep you company. All else fails you can try relentlessly to make your bread rise a little more, like me. *laugh* I do use wheat gluten. There's a link on the side of my blog page to the recipe I use, you should give it a try if you have a chance. I guess I have to go back to moving furniture... Nathan's gone tonight and at school first thing in the morning so that leaves me and me to move things. Oh well, it'll be worth it right! You can always come down and see the finished product for yourself :-D
