Getting Ready to Start a New Adventure

On January 23, 2012 Wesley started a new job taking x-rays at Central Utah Clinic in Provo, and he loves his job. I love hearing those words come out of his mouth! For the last 4 years he has worked really hard in school to get where he is and I am so so proud of him! The only catch up at the moment is that it costs so much and is a lot of driving to drive from Ephraim to Provo everyday, so instead he stays at my grandparents house during the week and comes home for the weekend. So we only get to see him 2 out of the 7 days of the week. As soon as we can find a house and get approved for a loan we are going to move up there but it will at least be a couple more months. So in the meantime Kastyn and I hang out at home, and wait patiently for the weekend.
   I have gotten a taste of what it feels like to be a single mom these last couple weeks, and I dont even have to worry about working to provide like real single moms do. So my hat goes off to the single moms out there. No mater how stressful it gets to take care of Kastyn everyday by myself I still have Wesley's income to live off of.
Kastyn is getting so big!! And he is such a crazy sleeper!!! Every night I lay him down in the middle of his crib, and this is how he ends up in the morning. (And no, I don't lay him sideways)

My mom and dad went toVegas a couple weeks ago and my mom brought him home a little sock monkey. He absolutly loves it!! He sleeps with it every night!! And when he wakes up he talks to it until I go in to get him.
Kastyn has what is called Torticollus. Its when the muscles in the right side of his neck are really stiff and he cant hold his neck up straight. So when he sleeps we have to lay him on his left side. We also have to do physical therapy with him, which he absolutly hates. Its getting a lot better though.

I cant believe that he is 5, now almost 6 months old!! He is getting to stinking big!! Although sometimes I miss my tiny 6 pound baby, it is so much fun to see his personality come out. He loves to talk and scream. And he has figured out how to roll over, and does it all the time. He doesnt know what to do when he get on to his tummy and hasnt figured out how to roll back yet. But it is so much fun to watch him grow everyday, and we cant wait until Wesley can see him grow like I get to once we live in the same house for more then a couple days a week.
