Sorry it has been a while since we have posted last. Things have been crazy and kids have been sick. So here are a few things that have happened recently.
We have finally closed on our old house! Things took a little longer than planned because of a glich with the buyers financing. But it is great to have sold the house. It is strange to realize that we no longer have that house though. It was our first home and we have so many wonderful memories there. We just hope that the people who bought the house will enjoy it.
The next part is a Josephism. Today on our way to the closing we needed to eat and didn't have time to make lunch so we went to Wendy's. We thought that Joseph would enjoy some chicken nuggets so we got some for him. When I tried to give him the nuggets he said that he didn't want chicken he wanted a Cheese burger. Luckily Stephen had gotten a Junior bacon cheeseburger and was willing to switch. After Joseph ate about 2/3rds of the burger he handed it back to me and asked for his chicken nuggets. Stephen had already eaten the nuggets so I told Joseph they were gone. He didn't believe me so I showed him the empty container. Jospeh had a look of complete shock on his face. "They're gone? You ate them? You ate my chicken nuggets?!? Give them back!!!" By this time Stephen and I were laughing so hard we were nearly crying. Joseph was really upset. Joseph was going to stay at Grammie Bair's while we closed on the house. So we called her and asked her to make some chicken nuggets for him. She was already making some for Joseph and his cousin Jacob. Crisis averted.
Another Josephism. The other day Joseph came up to Stephen holding his mini magna doodle. Joseph asked Stephen what he wanted. Stephen was a little confused. Then Joseph asked if he wanted a Cheeseburger. Stephen said that he did. Joseph scribbled on his magna doodle and went to his kitchen (Aaron's exersaucer). He then made Stephen the best toy cheeseburger he ever had.
The last little bit of news is a Aaronism. We have been teaching Aaron baby signs. We did baby signing with Joseph and it worked very well, so we decided to teach Aaron too. Well today he started signing back to us. He now signs "light". That was Joseph's first sign too. We are also working on "more" and "all done".

Jen and Stephen, this is Annie! Your little boys sound like they're growing up so big -- they really do say the darndest things, don't they? So you mentioned closing a house? Where did you guys move to now? I wish you the best.
Annie we moved about a mile down the road. But in Utah not only does that mean a different ward but a different stake as well. We really miss our friends in the Starcrest ward a lot. This new ward is big and has a huge primary (Joseph is one of 9 sunbeams). But we are starting to get our feel around.
