So Ady has developed a few bad habits. One is that she doesn't like sleeping in her bed and wants to sleep in ours. Last night I woke up at 2 am when she hit me in the face. Our apartment is so small that our bed is next to hers. And now that she can stand up she can reach over and touch me in my bed. So she likes to wake me up and squawk till I get up and get her. So I tried a new method and instead got in bed with her once. It wasn't comfy at all and she didn't even fall asleep. Another bad habit is now she can spit. She sticks her tongue out and blows saliva all over. She has also learned how to make a sound with her mouth that sounds like someone farting. She loves doing that one in public cuz people always look at her. But the worst is the other day I had to take her with me to an appointment with my advisor and she had a diaper issue in the middle of the appointment. She peed all over the floor and then had poop coming out the side on her leg. I'm sure my advisor was glad when we left!

Adam's New Hobby

Ok, for those of you who haven't noticed, Adam has become enthrawled with the blogging(even though he has a million other hobbies too), so I haven't had to post for a while now. This is good now that this is a family hobby,,, especially since adam does do most of the picture taking. It will motivate him to take more pics with people in. Also you'lll be getting both our opinions...since I know all of you like to hear what we both have to say. ha ha. Even though I was enjoying the blogging I think its better now that we both input. So here is a thanks to Emma Johns for introducing "the Blog" to us. (which, even though I don't blog half as often, compared to the scrapbooking, I can definitely relate with it)
And by the way-- One more Key West Fact: Our Bishop knows Sonny Knowles from back in the day of flying airplanes. His name is Louis Prescott. Small World huh?

Will the real Slim Shady please stand up...


I think Ady has developed a new motto. It's why sit down when you can stand? All day now every chance she gets she stands up. And usually she calls out so that you can notice and she'll give you that look like "look I'm as cool as you now". I guess she decided we weren't giving her due credit and got a little bored here.

Cutest girl award


So Kasey joined the Korean club (I decided to join the Scuba Diving club instead), and at their opening social they played this game and everyone voted on who the cutest girl in the room was. Well Adyson won. We were the only married couple there and I guess we ruined some single girls chance to shine for the boys but oh well you can't deny that she's cute. By the way in this picture we are at the Blowhole and saw a whale. Kasey said that we didn't actually see the the whale just it's spray. It surfaced a few times and sprayed. I saw part of it's back but Kasey says that claiming to see a whale is misleading. Kasey won the strongest girl award at the Korean party. They had an arm wrestling competition and Kasey killed all the Korean girls. And for the really important new, Kasey got a job. She is an accountant in the finance department at BYU-Hawaii. Thank goodness, now we can make rent next month!

Ady's Favorite Toys



Here is Ady's Favorite Toys. She loves all of her Rubber Duckies, and a colored ball she has. If you put any toys in front of her and there is a ducky, she will pick up the ducky first thing. She now has 6 of them. Her Dad even found her a Hula Duck and got it for her.

Christmas Catch-Up



I have the catch up now on Christmas. We were with the family and it was really great, even if we were running around a lot to get to both families, finish packing, help with Leslie and Brandon's wedding, get sledding in at least once, and let the Grandmas see Ady for the last time for a while. Here are some of our favorite pictures.

Aloha Hawaii



Well, we have made it to Hawaii!!! When we left Morgan it was a frigid negative 10 degrees and we said enough is enough. We were very pleased to find it was a warm balmy 79 degrees upon arrival in Honolulu. Ady loves to just wear onesies and light dresses again. We found a stroller for her and enjoy taking walks all over. We love going to the beach and I enjoyed watching Kasey show how good she is at boogie boarding! She thought she had it till the board came loose and then all that was above water was her feet. I've got to learn how to say wipeout in Hawaiian. It was a big wave, a whole 3 feet! Well good thing we have time to practice. This coming week we get to go to the Polynesian Cultural Center for free as part of my orientation and on Friday there is a Luau for all students! After a couple of long days being frustrated by used car salesman we ended buying a car from an old neighbor and with a bit of help from them we have been able find the Walmart, Costco and HomeDepot. Our house is small, no I mean tiny, actually if any of you can think of a word that means smaller than the smallest ever then that is how big it is. But fortunately we don't have much since we left so much on the mainland. Makes life simpler. We would love to have you visit but if you want plenty of space for a whole family I suggest waiting till July when hopefully we have moved into a bigger place. Then again if you want to see how we can get food out of the fridge with out getting out of bed come on over now.
