Ok Finally

Well I have a lot of things to blame the absence on. First we moved out of Rexburg(after 8 years for me it was time!!!).Thanks to all those that helped. Ryan is going to Dental School in the fall at Ohio State so we are moving to Ohio with my family for the summer to work and save money but not without taking a vacation which leads me to my second reason...we are in Oregon for who knows how long thanks to the Johnson brothers and flag football tournaments we may stay here to the middle of June!(that's a huge run on sentence oh well I'm not a English teacher anymore!) That's OK by me it is so beautiful here. We went to the beach the other day and it was 96 degrees!!! pictures will be posted soon!

The sock stealer... the binky stealer....or both???

Last night and many nights in the last couple months Riley will get up and cry because he no longer has his binky in his month, thus starting the pros and cons of getting your child to use a binky. Anyway as I frantically searched for his binky at 3 in the morning( so as not to wake the little boy downstairs with Riley's crying,sorry Southcott's).It hit me that binky's and socks go to the same place. I use to have 6 binkies now I am down to on one . Same with socks you put them in the dryer together and poof they're gone. I have even gone to the trouble to see if they are there when I switch from the washer to the dryer. Before you know it one sock from a pair is missing never to be seen again. I think the sock stealer gets the same pleasure out of stealing binkies. I can just see him laughing as he holds a couple socks from a pair and 5 of Riley's binkies. How rude!
