More Summer...

They had so much fun on the rides! Taya was so proud that she rode the Merry-go-round all by herself!
Ry, Taya, and 5 classmates cramped into the ferris wheel cage. All I could here was giggles all the way around. Taya recieved a package in the mail. She was so happy that her mom didn't know that when you use the Best offer on ebay that if the seller accepts it is a done deal. Eric was happy that my lesson only cost me $18 plus shipping.

Rylee Graduated from Kindergarden on Wed. she was really excited. She loves school and was what you would call the teacher's pet. She is excited to attend Kindergarden for the second time in the fall (because we will be moving next year and the cut off start dates are in Jan in Sask.) and this year she gets to ride the bus.
I liked this picture! Walker doesn't like trying new textures. He is trying Watermelon for the first time, and as you can see he is really enjoying it.

Summer is here!!!

This is where Walker spends most of his time watching the girls play. I love summer so much! The play outside all day long. Grandma notice the Dora knee pads she insisted on wearing them.
I love this picture!!!
We finally had the neighbor girls over to play! The girls were so excited to finally have friends over. They dressed up like princesses and then wanted their picture taken. They had a great time.
This is the best swing ever! Rylee's last day of school we spend the day at kinsmen it was a lot of fun. Taya was so happy that she got to come. It was a full day of just the girls. We went swimming, had a picnic, played at the park. Then in the afternoon went on the rides at Kinsmen

MILESTONES

This last month has been really crazy so here is out update. Eric is finally done and yes passed third year of Dental School. Congrats! One more year it seems so far away but I know that time will fly by so we will enjoy our last summer as students. Rylee has one week left of Kindergarden, she loved school and I am sure she will miss it over the summer. Taya is counting down the days till she can start preschool and dance in the fall. Walker well he still just sits! And we think that crawling is still not in the near future. He did graduate and finally got his own room, which means that eric's office is now in a corner of our bedroom. On a postive note Walker is sleeping way better!!! I am keeping busy with YW's, picking up a few shifts on peds so we aren't solely living on debt, doing all that mom stuff (you think with a extra set of hands around the house that my load would seem lighter???), and running!!! I ran 14km's last monday thanks to the encouragement of my running partners. I am going to miss my personal traniner and spin buddy who is moving in two weeks, hopefully I can still stay motivated.

Some More...

My handsome boy!!! I just can't get enough of him. (ya I am a proud mom. aren't we all!) He is 8 1/2 months and finally broke his first tooth, not through enough to actually take a picture of. He looks like his Dad but he is so a Mama's boy and I love it!!!
Ash and Ryker freezing in front of the Falls, but the important thing is that we got that Picture!
Almost the whole group. Eric always find excuses to not be in the picture. I'll catch him soon.

Grandma Great.

Walker meeting his Grandma Great. I love this picture! Walker slept like that the whole time we were visiting with Grandma.

Grandma Helen, Jennifer Helen & Rylee Helen.

Grandma Great!

Great Grandma Schaffer passed away on May 23rd. The kids and I packed up and made the 7 hour drive just the four of us. Eric still had two out of his eleven finals to write so he flew home for the funeral. I am sad that Grandma passed on, but I know that she is finally happy with Grandpa. I am so thankful for the knowledge and testimony I have of eternal families. We are so lucky to have the Gospel in our lives. It was fun to see my sister's, nieces, nephews, & all those cousins!!! Who ever thought with this many people we would get a good picture.

Grandpa and Grandma look so happy to be surrounded by all those cute Grand kids! I don't why Grandpa always insists that the parents have to come with their children to visit.

Dino's!!!

Rylee and Taya with Rueger and Briggs as they watched Walking with the Dinosaurs!!! These kids love each other. Becky use to babysit Rylee when she was ten months old while I worked, ever since then Ry and Rue have had a special bond, who knows maybe there will be wedding bells down the road.
The dinosaurs looked so real!!! It was really cool.

Taya was spent! They still talk about it. Walker missed the whole thing thanks to Aunt Christa who babysat.
