What's been going on


It has been awhile since I last posted, or at least it seems like it.
Here is the Readers Digest version of the past week or so.....
We spent some time up at a cabin just outside of Park City for my niece's birthday. We went 4-wheeling and shopping at the outlets in Park City. We had a birthday party and lots of fun.
We had a family reunion planned for the same weekend as the 24th of July so we had some family from out of town staying with us. It was fun for the boys to have others their age to play with. They ran around making all sorts of noise and getting into trouble...as any good 4 year old boy should. We had fun while they were here but it is always nice to have the house back to normal.
For the reunion we had several days of fun. It started with me and Jason's immediate family camping out on the parade route. Yes, I did sleep out on the street, but I did use and air mattress. It really wasn't too bad and the boys did really well. The troops showed up the next morning and we all had fresh made scones for breakfast.
After the parade I went home and put the boys to bed and then headed to Jason's grandma's for dinner and more cousin playing.
On the 25th there were water games and lunch and all sorts of fun but alas, we were not able to attend due to the fact that D came down with a fever of 102.7. Lucky for us there were no other symptoms but the fever was enough to keep me and him home for the day. Ridge was able to go play due to some very wonderful aunts and and uncle.
Dyson was better the next day so we were able to attend part of the BBQ. It was the final activity of the reunion. We had a good time and D sat fully clothed in a swimming pool full of water. What a nut! Ridge came down with the fever the following day to round out our week.
I went to the doctor and had my glucose and iron tests done. The good news...I passed the glucose test. The bad news...I am extremely low on iron. I guess your levels are supposed to be between 36-46 and I am at a 29! They have me taking 3 iron supplements a day along with a children's vitamin (prenatal vitamins make me sick) super fun for me! Hopefully that will take care of the problem.
Whew! That is what we have been up to over the last little bit.
