2. Eli learned a new word this week: Every morning when Wade leaves for work he gives me a good-bye kiss. The big kids always laugh and say, "Eww...gross!" Friday when Wade left, Eli pointed at us and said, "GOSS!"
4. Open the bin of blocks, animals and get out the Little People house and Avery is set for hours. Literally. She will build and play and imagine all sorts of stories.
5. I started packing up some bookshelves this week. I thought I had a lot of boxes, but I'm now out of boxes. And I still have more books. If you have boxes, I'll take them.
6. I just got home from spending four hours at the district Pinewood Derby. Wade had to work. I got to fly solo and take all four crazy kids to the busy Saturday mall full of rowdy cub scouts. Three of my kids hate the mall. One loves it. She loves to wiggle out of the stroller and run wild because there is always something in every single store she wants to look at.
It was an interesting morning. Gage got a participation medal. There were 68 cars. His car got to race 3 times, but I'm writing this up as a "heart-breaking-educational-experience." We've always got next year. Plus, everyone got pretzels and mall pretzels are awesome!
7. Supposedly Wade is done with residency call Monday for good. Most 3rd years don't take call. But most 3rd years have other residents at their program. I sure wish we didn't have to turn in the pager. I kinda wish we could take it out in a field and shoot it. I am not even kidding.

I love the idea of taking the pager out to the field and shooting it!! If it makes you feel any better Justin and his 3rd years took call until the end of May... Even though there were 8 first and second year residents... I was SUPER annoyed! :) Congrats on all the big news this week. Congrats on the baby (I won't deny I was a little jealous), and I hope the job works out wonderfully. Good luck moving. I hope they gave you a moving budget! :)
Congrats on baby number 5!!! That is super exciting -- also congrats on bountiful!!! That is my home town. I know a great little ward out there you might enjoy living in. :) Dave and I will be out visiting my parents this summer. We will have to stop by and say hi. Maybe you can give us more advice about getting through residency and finding a job. I agree 100% with you. Finding a job has been a little harder than expected and residency is sooo much tougher on me than I expected it to be. One year down 2 more to go. Seriously though bountiful is a great place to live. If you have any questions or need my parents to keep a lookout for housing let me know. Good luck with the packing!
