Keeping my mind off of teething
Jack is teething....
again. He has his four front teeth on the top and bottom, but now has FOUR MORE teeth that have just barely broken through: two molars on each side in the back on the top and bottom...OUCH!
He is being such a trooper though, but does like to be distracted by anything in the kitchen drawers and of course, being comforted by chewing on his bottle. We can't complain and just are trying to enjoy the extra cuddle time!

Grandma Huyser
Grandma Huyser was born May 9, 1919 and went to glory on March 31, 2007. She was an amazing Grandma who we miss very much. We grew up going to church with Grandpa and Grandma, spent time with them out at the cottage, and always enjoyed seeing them at our sporting events, music events and other school/church activities. Some of my favorite memories of Grandma include:
- Playing with her rings and charm bracelet at church each Sunday. Everytime I saw Grandma, I'd go through the list of which charm was for who and what ring represented what (wedding, engagement, trip to Mexico, etc.)
- Grandma fitting us all for dresses for school dances. She made dresses for all us sisters and helped my mom with many others.
Homemade Christmas stockings out of newspaper....one for every family! - Girl's weekend at the cottage and making our favorite Christmas cookies
- Grandma reading Reader's Digest (she got me started in middle school on it...loved those drama in real life stories!)
- Cookouts with high school friends and college teams at the cottage...all my friends loved Grandpa and Grandma!
- Grandma teaching me how to knit and helping me with sewing projects
- Grandma's cheesecake...Eric and I loved it so much we had it as our wedding cake
- Grandma's faith in her Savior Jesus Christ
