One of our little princess’s nick names (Bubble Baby) is in reference to one of her favorite pastimes. Abby’s spit has this remarkable quality that allows it to hold bubbles on her chin for up to 5 minutes…which gives me and the boys 5 minutes of doubled-over-can’t-catch-your-breath-laughing-good-time!!
My little Lego Maniac
For one solid month following Christmas morning’s unveiling of Lego Mars Mission—from Grandma Wait—Ethan sat on the living room floor and almost single handedly organized 795 pieces into one mother ship, one Martian fighter ship, and one Mars driller. Now they sit proudly on display downstairs on the counter, between short flights around the house, piloted by all the boys. Grandmas know just what their boys need.
Good Times in Provo
Last week we took my sister Brooke down to the MTC…we all had a great experience. I love opportunities like this to prepare my little future missionaries. Brooke was stoic. Few tears were shed by her. We’re all very proud of her…she’s going to be a GREAT missionary.
TGI Friday's: Missionaries eat free on their way to the MTC. Brooke followed the tradition of Luke and my bro Cregg.

It was also fun to meet up with Luke’s siblings and my sisters-in-law at our favorite BBQ rendezvous—The Smokehouse (Luke has met his family at the Smokehouse every trip to Provo dating back to the first time he met Tiff when she and Jay were just dating). Abby has two girl cousins on the Wait side born the same summer she was. We'll have to create other photo ops of these three together so you don't have to watch them grow up in The Smokehouse.

(If you could have seen Luke here, you would have thought it was like the best day of his life...he had just watched BYU demolish UCLA 59-0. He was ecstatic. A great Provo pilgrimage).
