Crazy May

May was crazy. I can't think of any other way to describe it. Here are just a few of the things we Glasgows were up to during that very memorable month....First, Crystal flew in to give me some more help. Yay! She travelled down to Oklahoma with us. All my siblings met in Ponca for the first weekend in May to bless Wyatt at my parents house. It was a nice intimate setting for the ordinance, and we enjoyed being together even if it was only for a couple of days.


The next week, Amber and my Mom joined Crystal and I in Omaha for Wicked. We LOVED it! What a great girls day. I can't wait to do it again.

The day after Wicked, Jeff, Wyatt, and I were on a plane to Maryland to check out a job opportunity on the Delmarva Peninsula. It was a beautiful area...one I had never seen before. We looked at lots of houses and toured the area. We enjoyed spending time with our good friends the Whitakers. We took Wyatt to Ocean City for his first trip to the beach. The milkshakes at Dumpsers were to die for. We also got to see Julie, Chris, Michele, and the boys on Mothers Day. It is always fun to be with them.

We returned from Maryland a few days before the Fathers & Sons Camp Out at Two River State Park. The boys had a blast camping with their Dad and their good friends Tyler and Ryan. The night turned out to be a little colder than they expected...so they didn't get much sleep. That's ok though because they took some great naps when they returned the next day!


The end of the month consisted of wrapping up school for Danielle and Austin and all the picnics, graduations, and activities that go along with that. The day after school was out, we headed back down to Oklahoma for a 2-week vacation. With my Mom's help, I was able to go running almost every morning I was there. It was so nice to exercise. Of course, it was also really nice to relax with all the extra help. The weather was beautiful so we enjoyed lots of time outside. Two memorable outings we took were to the Standing Bear Monument and to our beloved Sun 'n Fun Water Park with Brittney, Sterling, & Kade.

Last but not least, Wyatt turned two months old and continued to laugh and smile and steal our hearts.

Awesome April

The most memorable moments in April were visits from family and Austin's 5th birthday. My Mom, Amber & Jon, and Jeff's parents all came to visit. By visit, I mean they came to help out this tired mother of one infant and three other young children. They helped me SO MUCH. Thank you for ALL you did! As you can see, Terry & Linda's visit overlaped Easter. It was fun to have a few more easter bunnies around our house. Austin had a great 5th birthday. For our family party, he requested a picnic and trip to the lake to skip rocks. It was a fun evening. For his friend party, he invited his best friends over for cake & ice cream and an outing to the movie theater to see Monsters v. Aliens. It was awesome.

Happy Belated Easter

I don't have time to write anything. I just wanted to share this happy family moment from yesterday.

April Fools

The night before April Fools Day, Jeff switched Danielle and Austin in their beds while they were sleeping. Austin was very unhappy to wake up in his sister's bed without his bear. He finally found the humor in it when he told his teacher at preschool what had happened...and she laughed histerically. Jeff decided to carry April Fools on to the next night because Austin was such a good sport. While Austin was sleeping, he slipped one of Danielle's dance recital dresses on over Austin's clothes. Words cannot express Austin's frustration when he awoke the next morning in this sparkly little number. Oh the fun of having Jeff for a dad. :-)

March 2009

Here is our update for March. Obviously, the most memorable event was the birth of Wyatt. He is such a great addition to our family. We love him to pieces.
Danielle finished up cheerleading and was chosen as Student of the Month at her school.
Austin had a blast on "beach day" at preschool. When we saw this picture, we asked him what he was doing with his hand. He said he was giving his teacher the "rock sign". I guess he and his dad have been playing a little too much Guitar Hero.
Luke enjoyed going to sibling day with Austin at his preschool. Luke wishes it was sibling day everyday now. Danielle had a fun fieldtrip with her girl scout troop to Lauritzen Gardens. Austin and Jeff tagged along to see the huge locomotives on display.
Our friends stayed with us...Mason for a day and Emily for a few days while their Mom spent some time with her family in Utah. Danielle loved having a "little sister". Luke was his usual entertaining self. Here he is sporting what he likes to call a "yeehaw" (cowboy hat) and his sister's Hannah Montana wig.Luke is SO SWEET with his baby brother. He wants to hold him and love him as much as I will let him. I love how tenderly he hugs and kisses him. Anytime Wyatt cries, Luke starts singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star to him. I have a feeling they are going to be great friends.

Baby Wyatt

Wyatt Joseph Glasgow was born Saturday, March 14th at 7:14 p.m. He weighed 7 lbs 11ozs and was 21 inches long. As you can see, he has lots of wispy brown hair. I did a better job at recognizing labor this time around and made it to the hospital with some time to spare. It was a great delivery. I couldn't have planned it better if I had tried. Actually, I did try to wait until my doctor was back in town...but there are some things you just can't delay.

Notice Austin's extreme disappointment at not being the one to hold the baby for our "family picture." Wyatt will not lack for attention at our house.
Grandma Pat, Grandpa Howard, Uncle Sterling, Aunt Brittany, and Cousin Kade made it into town an hour before Wyatt was born. Talk about great timing!

I love this picture! The day after we came home from the hospital was St. Patrick's Day. Here are the Foy Cousins sporting their Irish Green. Is it just me, or does he look like a little bear cub after his bath? What a difference two years can make! I can't believe my baby Luke is this big. Where does the time go?
We are so glad he is here!

February 2009

Here is a quick update for our family in February:

Jeff went on his dream golf outing with Chevron. He played Pebble Beach, Spy Glass, and Spanish Bay.
Luckily, Uncle Eric came for a visit and kept us entertained while our Dad was gone. We took Uncle Eric to the zoo and thoroughly enjoyed having him here with us.


We got another great snow storm. This time Jeff and the kids made a 7-foot tall sled run down our deck stairs. School was cancelled, so they had a 3-day weekend to slip and slide as much as they wanted.

We said goodbye to a long-time member of our family. I took my drivers test to get my license in this '89 Honda Civic. Surprising, Danielle cried even more than I did the day we sold it.

Danielle got her hair cut. She wanted it a lot shorter. I thought this was a good start.
Danielle and Austin had some fun Valentines Day parties at their respective schools.

Austin finished up his second round of swim lessons with his beloved Miss Barb. He is quite the swimmer and LOVES being in the water.

Last, but definitely not least...Luke perfected yet another dance to add to his repertoire. Just try not to smile watching this. It is impossible.
