Burnett Family Updates...

For the last couple of months things have been pretty up and down for our family...as some of you know, Wade lost his job at the end of January which was stressful all the way around but we are happy to say that he just got a new job at Overstock.com and we think we are really going to like it there. It also means we get to stay put for a while which is nice, it would have been really hard to transfer MBA programs and move and all that jazz. Anyways, so that is our good news, thanks to all of you who helped and prayed for us we could definitely feel it. Here are some pictures of the other happenings of the last few months...

Anna turned 18 months on the 14th of March and with that came her first day of nursery at church, so here she is all ready to go, she did great too. I was able to leave after only a few minutes and she has done great ever since.

St. Patrick's Day...complete with green cupcakes and green eggs and ham.

Unfortunately the months of March and April seem to be our sickest months...so far I have had a a really bad head cold that lasted for about a week, the kids have had numerous colds, Anna has had double ear infections and yesterday Jacob threw up about 5 times and never got off the couch which is unbelievably rare for Jacob even when he is sick...so here he is all bundled up with one of his colds.

Since we have been able to put Anna's hair in pig tails, her hair looks funny when we take them out for bed time...Wade calls the piggy fros.


I just liked this picture so I put it in. Plus I am in it and my dad says I don't put enough pictures of me on the blog.

We were so lucky to have G and G Shrader come to our house for a week...the kids loved having them here.

For those that don't know, every April and October the LDS church has something called General Conference where our prophet and other leaders of the church speak to us. We are lucky enough to get it broadcasted on T.V. There are 4 sessions, 2 on Saturday and and 2 on Sunday and each session lasts 2 hours...anyways, that can be a lot for little kids to sit through so we have different activities set up for them so that the adults can sit and listen. the car seats just happened to be in our house and the kids wanted to be buckled up in them, so Wade did and turned on a movie for them on the portable DVD player. It didn't last very long, but it sure looked funny...this is how I found them after I came down form my shower.

Same day later session, we found Anna like this...sunglasses, Jacob's slippers, Binky and the DVD player...

...and later we found her in the same attire talking on my cell phone
