Past due

SO...really January is a pretty boring month. You come off the holiday high, and into cold weather full of catch up days, and paying bills, and getting prepared for tax season.

Nothing too exciting here in the Butler household...Jake and I did get called to the activities committee in our ward, and it's a sweet calling! We get to help put together all sorts of fun church parties and such! Yeehaw!

McKenzie started dancing another hour a week, and is now dancing a total of 4 hours! She is gettig better everyday, it's so fun to watch her! Mandi (her teacher) wants her to do a solo next year, it will be so fun, but we need help deciding on a cute song for her! We also went and saw the Princess and the Frog with Kinz friend estarra from dance class, they wore Princess Tiana shirts ate popcorn and had a BLAST!

Brady is growing like a weed, he is still a little shrimp, but does everything and normal baby his age should be doing! He talks a a lot like his sister, laughs giggles, is ticklish, has found his feet, and rolls over back and forth all day long. He started eacting baby cereal and baby food, and has been sleeping better for us, which is wonderful! I was so spoiled with mcKenzies sleep habits that Brady has been a challenge, and he is a great baby!

Jake started a business cleaning pools once a week to make up for me not working, and is doing pretty darn good! If you know anyone PLEASE refer us! :)

Also, Jake is going back to school starting April in an online program, he's going to get his bachelors in operation safety. I'm also going to go back to school to get my associates in health and fitness, and I'm going to become yoga certified come July! So when I do you will all have to come try out some classes!

And..in great news! jake has lost almost 15 pounds and 7 inches off his waist! Im at 9 lbs down and 5 inches! Woot! how you ask!? Exercise everyday and eat better! :)

Well hope everyone is having a wonderful new Year, and Welcome February 2010!

When McKenzie was starting to talk and we would say time for a bath she would say "BAPS?" and then anything with water she then called "BAPS" fountains, pools, bath tubs, lakes...so it just seemed fitting to name our pool business BAPS after our lil Princess :)

And Krysta I came up with the tag line...I wanted to go along with the world going "green" theme. Its pretty funny!

You guys are go-getters! Good for you guys.

I hear ya about not being used to having a lame sleeper for a second child! I guess the first ones just warmed us up to parenthood without sending us into shock! Especially because I have always loved my sleep! Aren't little boys the best?!

Sorry, we don't have a pool, but if somebody I know needs some cleaning, I'll pass on the info.

And I would love to try your yoga classes...I've never done yoga before but have always wanted to.
