Linnea's 3!!!

Linnea is 3 now! I can't believe how quickly she has grown up. In a little over a month she became potty trained,potty trained at night,got rid of her binky, is now in a big girl bed and has gotten spotty with her naps but I'm hoping she'll still take them a bit longer.She is such a sweet little girl and we are so happy she is in our family. She is very affectionate and will tell me she loves me all the time. At 3 she loves Daniel the Tiger,dancing,singing,cats,playing school,and being outside. She loves her family very much. She had a great day on her birthday. She got pancakes in bed that her Grandpa made for her, then she got to watch a couple episodes of Daniel Tiger. Then I took the kids sledding, home for lunch, to the dinosaur musuem,picked up Linnea's Tigger cake and then back for dinner, presents, cake and ice cream. For her birthday she got a kitty cat costume, some bath toys,a new stool, some pizza play food, and I can't remember what else. Oh some clothes from my parents and a fun kitty/dog vet toy from Grandpa and Grandma and Kristin and a stuff animal from Grandpa and Grandma too. TC's dad was here for her birthday and Kristin and her family were in town so they came over too along with my brothers,Spenser, Jonathan and his wife Chelsea and son,Maximus. We also made Linnea's bed into a toddler bed that day and she's doing great with it. Here are some fun pictures from her birthday!

How We Met

We met when both of us lived in the same apartment complex and were attending the same singles ward. We became acquainted as friends when one of Ashley's roomates was interested in one of TC's roommates and always wanted to hang out at their apartment. Ashley came along for moral support. Ashley has to admit that her initial impression of TC was not the greatest. She was wondering why he was trying to act like such a "tough guy" by shaving his head and going by TC. One day she asked him why he didn't grow his hair out to which he replied that he could not and she also learned that he goes by TC to distinguish himself from his father who is named Thomas Clark and his grandfather who is Thomas Clarence. TC relates that when he first met Ashley he thought she was cute and was contemplating asking her out or another girl in the ward. He did think Ashley was slightly immature because she was engaging in often frivolous activities such as throwing water balloons out her apartment window at people walking by and wrestling with guys in the apartment lounge. (She has grown up since then, TC says!) TC decided to give it a go and ask Ashley out after he came home from a trip visiting his sister, April, in Arizona. His roommates related that Ashley had expressed an interest in him. (Actually Ashley's roommate was trying to hook her up with TC and told his roommates Ashley wanted to go out with him. Ashley did not entirely object.) So TC called Ashley and asked her to go with a group to Pirates of the Caribbean. Their first official single date was to Wendy's (Way to go, TC, lol) TC and Ashley dated exclusively for about a year before becoming engaged in December of 2004 and were then married on April 23rd, 2005 and it has been bliss ever since!
