Jared, Amber and Kyler

So remember that time i was good at blogging? yeah me either..... I now have a little more time on my hands so I want to do my best in updating..I'm horrible at keeping a personal journal so I MUST get better at this.. so ALOT has happened in our little world. We are officially residents of St Louis Missouri. We will be spending the next 3 years of our life here. So the beginning of our adventure was well lets just say i wanted to get in the car and head right back to Provo. We decided that living downtown in the city would be best for our little family because with the amounts of hours Jared will be spending at the school we have heard its worth living close to the school so we will actually see him. so we did we rented a little 2 bedroom place for way to much money to live downtown. We drive in and Kyler and i wait in the car while Jared runs in to get our keys and all of a sudden right in front of me at 1 in the afternoon a man decides to take a little leak on the trashcan RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME! i freaked. Jared got in the car and i was freaking out "what is wrong with these people it is the middle of the day!" "does this happen all the time" "I am not coming out here by myself" oh yeah the whole 9 yards, we walk into the apartment and it was so cute beautiful sight of the city much smaller than our first home but manageable. We spend our first night here an right outside our window is a band playing till about 2 am. Yep i was ecstatic about living here. Everything that could have gone wrong did. After that however we haven't had a band play or anything too bizarre happen we have actually LOVED living here we walk everywhere everyone has been so welcoming and friendly. Anyone will tell we just moved here they give us loads of recommendations and fun things to do. Kyler is in heaven with all the kids stuff it is amazing. apparently 1% of the taxes go to a cultural tax so it makes everything free or super cheap we havent even competed a quarter of all the fun things. All in all it has been a wonderful experience and we are excited to see what the next three years have in store.

NOW the fun stuff

he is so FULL of energy i am totally wiped out by the end of the day sometimes.He is quite the perfectionist and gets frustrated really easily. which is funny but not funny. He loves to get his way what 18 month doesn't i am learning to deal with temper tantrums right now they just came out of nowhere! He HATES nursery screams and cries the whole time..we haven't made it through one Sunday and hes gone for a month! He is a TOTAL mommas boy which i love/hate he always wants me to snuggle but i cant leave without feeling horrible cause he cries "momma momma go" he loves water baths swimming puddles anything! Such a helper loves to help dad fix things, mom cook, put clothes away anything. An awesome sharer at the doctors today he tried to give the lady sitting next to us my 10 dollar bill. ha ha, he is such a sweetheart! we are enjoying all his new developments and this wonderful city we live in! We hope you are all doing as amazing as we are :)
