Ever since David matched at Hopkins in 2008, we promised Ben a trip to see the Statue of Liberty. After 5 years, we decided we better plan a time before our Baltimore days were over. David had a few days off, so we took advantage and headed to NYC. We knew we were asking for trouble going to NYC for New Year's Eve, but we took the challenge and actually fared quite well (or maybe I just can't remember all the details after 6 months)! We spent two days in NYC and one night on Staten Island. One of the kids favorite parts of all, was riding the Staten Island Ferry back and forth. It gives you a great view of the city, the Statue of Liberty and the Brooklyn bridge. And let's be honest, what kid doesn't like riding a ferry! <br />

Kate was ready to move on to the American Girl Store and Ben had been begging to go to the Lego store so we ventured out. Those two stores were beyond crowded. We had to wait in long lines outside just to get in and then it was nearly impossible to move once we got inside. (My memory is suddenly returning....imagine navigating a double stroller through all that and a 3 year old announcing he needed to use the bathroom, ASAP. Those were some stressful moments!) </div>

After all our travels over the 2 days, I would have to say my favorite memory will be our first time getting on the subway. We had our double stroller with us and thought that we needed to collapse it down and carry it through the turnstile. So David collapsed it and the plan was for him to go through with it first, while I waited on the other side with the kids. Once he was through, I would then send the kids and follow up in the rear. Well, David got stuck in the turnstile (bent over) with the stroller. He made it in, but was not making it out! I'm still kicking myself for not taking a picture, but I knew I was walking a very fine line. He was in a predicament and I wasn't quite sure how he would react with me taking snapshots of his backside rather than helping him. The kids on the other hand....let the laughter fly! I think it was pretty obvious we were tourists. But, who wouldn't have at least one little hiccup in the Big Apple with 4 little kids on New Year's Eve? For me, that moment made the entire trip (melt downs, potty breaks, bitter cold and all) worth it! Good times! </div>

On December 1st, we started a new ornament tradition to help us all learn more about the life of the Savior. Each day in December highlighted a different story from the life of Christ. Along with each story, came a corresponding ornament that we hung on the tree each night. The kids really enjoyed it and it welcomed the Christmas spirit into our home! Christmas Eve brought new jammies for all! </div>

In November, we were treated to the best kind of Thanksgiving treat with a visit from some of our Oklahoma family; Uncle Michael, Aunt Christina, Ava and Colt Behrmann. The kids had so much fun playing with their cousins. Mike and family took Jacob to see Frozen (for the first time), while Ben and Kate were at school. We all went to the Kenilworth mall for some pizza and our annual train village viewing. And of course, we spent the majority of the time cooking, baking, cooking, baking, eating, eating, eating and eating! We miss them everyday and are so grateful for their visit! <br />

Emily (or Emy as we often call her) turned one on November 24, 2013! I know I always said Jacob was a dream baby (and he was), but Emily has him beat. That may be hard for you to believe if you knew Jacob (...or maybe his 3's are just clouding my memories). Emily is so content to just go with the flow. I suppose, as the 4th, she has no other choice. She is so sweet and full of cute faces! She sleeps well and is quite the charmer. We all love her more than anything. Here are some pictures from her big day! We'll keep her! <br />

It was a BUSY few days. Ben's birthday was on a Thursday. He requested muffins and scrambled eggs for breakfast before he headed off to school. That night we had dinner at Red Robin and opened a few presents. <br />

There was no school on Friday so we decided to plan a party for Ben that day. David took the day off to help me. (As if birthday parties aren't stressful enough, we crammed in another stressful event that morning...family pictures! It wasn't ideal, but you do what you have to do when you know Dad will actually be home.) We gave in to Ben's longtime request for a laser tag Red zone birthday party. The kids had a great time and it made things doable for me. <br />

Ben is a great kid! I am so thankful for him. He continues to be an amazing helper to me in what has been one of my busiest and most stressful years. He and Kate fight as most siblings do, but Jacob and Emily continue to do no wrong in Ben's eyes. He has naturally stepped into the role of man of the house when David is gone. Without being asked he gathers the trash and recycling, picks up the little kids toys nightly, reads bedtime stories to everyone and gathers everyone for nightly scripture study and prayer. I don't think he realizes how much his help means to me. He is a good friend, is sensitive to others, does well in school and loves sports. (And I love watching him play those sports). He is good company! <br />
<br />
On Saturday (16th), David and I flew to Idaho Falls for one of David's job interviews. It took a lot of planning, but somehow it all worked out! We are SO thankful to Alison and Steve Christian for watching the oldest 3 kids for us for 4 days so that I could go with David.

Ben had his Pitta costume planned for months. He was clever enough to realize that he would have a better chance of convincing us to buy him a new Ravens jersey for Baltimore's purple Fridays if it also doubled as his Halloween costume. Dad gave in. Kate wanted to be a Disney Princess and figured it would be fun to have red hair for a day, despite my attempts to convince her that it would look more real if she picked a blond princess. I did however convince her that she did not need to wear real sea shells or tape her legs together. Jacob and Emily were easy to please.....you may or may not recognize their recycled Behrmann Halloween costumes! The Halloween festivities began with Jacob's preschool Halloween party. Emily and I joined him. Sometimes its fun to be with just these two...Jacob adores his little sister! <br />

Kate enjoyed her soccer season this year. She was determined to defend her goal from the beginning of the season and never really left it the entire time! We aren't sure where she picked up her growling tactic....none of us will claim it. <br />

Ben's soccer was fun to watch as usual. He continues to be a great, tenacious soccer player! Unfortunately, his team didn't do so well this year. They only had 1 or 2 wins I think. It didn't help that two of their best players both broke their arms in the beginning of the season and were out for the remainder. He was a good sport though and never gave up! </div>

Our Stake hosted a multi-faith 5K run to benefit the Maryland Food Bank on September 21, 2013. Kate ran the entire 5K like a walk in the park. She taunted several of the older men in our ward with her sprint/walk/sprint tactic. As soon as they started to catch up she would sprint ahead and then watch over her shoulder for them to get close again. I suppose we all have to claim her competitive spirit! <br />

Kate lost her first two teeth on September 23, 2013. They had been very loose for quite awhile but she was determined to only lose them at school so she could get a treasure chest from the school nurse to put them in. Once the dentist gave her a few treasure chests I was finally able to convince her to let us pull them out. I was just about ready to do it, when she said: "Stop! I want Daddy to do it. Doctors are just smarter than nurses!" After a quick scolding from Ben she looked at me and said, "But, you are the smartest Mom in the whole school!" So wait we did...until Dad was actually home before bedtime! The next morning she told me, "I smiled all night long so the tooth fairy could see my tooth holes. That's why she gave me two dollars!" There is never a dull moment when Kate is around!</div>

Before David started his fellowship, we both signed up to run the Baltimore Half Marathon on October 12, 2013 since it would be our last fall in Baltimore. Miraculously, we both finished but it wasn't pretty. It was much harder to find the time to train this time around with David's busy hours. We were glad to have our friends the Christensens and the Calderons join us for the event. It rained the entire week and weekend, but thankfully the sun decided to shine for those 2 hours! </div>

David knew he needed to pull out all the stops to make sure he didn't have to work that night. The theme was, "Neon Glow." I sent them with all of our leftover glow sticks and somehow they came home with even more. They had a great time. Kate and David are more alike than either of them will ever admit!!! <br />

Jacob has been eagerly waiting for his turn to go to "school" just like Ben and Kate. He was so excited all summer and pretty much potty trained himself overnight once I got around to letting him try so that he could go to school. I was a little surprised the week before school started when he started telling me that he "felt nervous" for school to start and he began repeatedly requesting that I stay with him. On the first day that I was suppose to leave him (there is a gradual entry) there were several kids crying. He looked at them a few times and I silently hoped it wasn't going to ignite anything in him. Before I left, I took him to the bathroom and while he was sitting on the toilet he looked up at me with his big, blue eyes and without any prompts from me said, "It's okay Mommy. You can leave. I won't cry Mommy." Well maybe he didn't cry, but it sure made me teary eyed! I gave him a big squeeze and suddenly my little shadow was off to preschool! They grow up too fast! <br />

We'll start with the caterpillar. Our neighbor Bill found several caterpillars and one day after school gave the kids their very own caterpillar lesson. He taught them everything they needed to know, let them hold several different ones and even provided them with their very own chrysalis in a jar. They were fascinated. Bill turned care over to Kate and specifically told her not to shake the jar, to keep it out of the light and to let it go within a few hours once it turned into a butterfly. He expected this to happen within 1-2 weeks. </div>

The first week went great (minus the time I walked into Kate's room and she was sitting on her bed petting the chrysalis) until Kate realized that our trip to the BYU vs. U of Virginia football game in Charlottesville, VA was coming up. "We couldn't just leave her caterpillar home alone. What if it turned into a butterfly while we were gone and died?" She was right I suppose and so our chrysalis came along for the big trip. About 30 minutes into our drive David asked me if I was hearing something roll around in the back. Oops! I had set down the jar at Jacob's feet when I buckled him in his car seat and had forgotten to secure it. I managed to get the jar without the kids noticing and David placed it in the cup holder of the driver's door. Did rolling the jar count as shaking? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We continued on our drive and actually made pretty good time. We went an alternate route in order to avoid DC and northern Virginia. It was a really relaxing and beautiful drive. We arrived in Charlottesville and unloaded the van into our hotel room. While we were getting ready for the BYU team fireside David remembered we had left the jar in the van. He went out to the van and brought it in and placed it on top of the dresser. It stayed there unharmed for the remainder of our hotel stay. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We quickly dressed the kids for the fireside and met up with the McDowells for a quick dinner at Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers (suggested to us by our friend Lark Fillmore). It's fast food, but it was really good. Of course, Kate spilled her red drink all down her white shirt! Oh well! From there we headed to the fireside. It was packed, to say the least. We got to our seats and before it even started we had every kid complaining. Ben was mad we weren't sitting around a campfire. "I thought this was suppose to be a fireside." Kate was bored. Jacob wasn't feeling well (he had a low grade fever...awesome) and Emily was just plain tired. It was a nightmare! I ended up taking Jacob and Emily out less than 5 minutes in. I've sort of blocked out the remainder of the night from my memory but I may or may not remember David attempting to take an extremely deviant Kate out...her flip flop flying in the crowd...and then Mike McDowell bringing it to us in the hallway. David and I were not happy. We were "THOSE" people with "THOSE" kids. We both spent the rest of the fireside in either the hall or the relief society room with Kate, Jacob and Emily (all of which were still not happy). Ben stayed in with the McDowells. When the fireside was over we bagged our frozen yogurt plans. David helped me get to the van and then he took Ben back in the church to at least see some of the players. Here is a picture of Ben with one of them...don't ask me which one. </div>

Saturday started off <i>a little</i> better (although I didn't sleep...Emily and Jacob took turns waking up all night long). David took the bigger kids out and brought back donuts for breakfast. We took our time getting up and ready before we headed to the BYU tailgate party. I took these pictures before we left our hotel. </div>

We found the parking garage and were next in line to get our ticket when the lady came out of her booth and set up a blockade directly in front of us. She didn't say anything to us so I got out of the car and asked if it was full. She said they weren't sure yet so we could either stay and wait or leave. We didn't really know where else to go and we were pretty much blocked in by the long line of cars behind us so we waited and waited and waited and waited some more. She finally moved the sign and let us in. We walked to the tailgate party where we had lunch. The kids got their faces painted and each got a balloon. All sounds great, right? It was miserably hot outside to say the least!!! And, it was painfully humid. I had Emily in the Bjorn making it even hotter. The line for the balloons was very, very long! So long, we missed Cosmo's appearance. After waiting for what seemed like forever, all Jacob wanted was "a little white balloon". He didn't want the man to shape it into anything. He didn't even want it blown up all the way. Awesome! Kate requested a flower and Ben wanted a cougar. And you guessed it, 2-3 minutes after we left the balloons Jacob's balloon popped. He was beyond himself so David did what any good Dad would do for his son (and his own sanity). He took his keys and cut off a regular old white balloon from the tailgate tent decorations and gave it to Jacob. Problem solved...for now. It was fun to run into an old nursing school classmate and play catch up. Later, a stranger came up to David and asked him if he knew a Jae Behrmann? David told him he was his brother and the guy said, "I knew it." He had seen David and thought their resemblance and mannerisms were too great to be a coincidence. The guy had gone to MBA school with Jae in Texas. </div>

After the tailgate party, we finally headed to the game. We found our seats and settled in. Emily was miserable. I felt like the world's worst mother for bringing her to the game. It was so hot and gross. David bought several cold waters and I just held one to her skin to cool her down. <br />

We were barely surviving the game when someone walked through in front of us and you guessed it, stepped on Jacob's balloon and popped it. Almost simultaneously, the heat caused some of Kate's flower petals to pop. There was no more hanging on from there. And of course, the kid who didn't really care about his balloon had the only remaining perfectly intact cougar balloon. I told David he could stay with Ben and Kate, but I was taking the other two and leaving. The first quarter wasn't even over yet. I remembering wishing I could tell all those BYU students to enjoy those football games while they could. Things would drastically change someday! Just as I was about to leave, they called a rain delay in the game. It hadn't started raining yet, but there was lightning coming. So, we immediately got up and all headed to the van (a 20 min walk with flying debris). We were a little turned around since our phones weren't working with the weather. Literally, just as we arrived at the van it started to downpour. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We picked up dinner (yes, we had Raising Cane's two nights in a row...why not?) on the way back to the hotel and turned on ESPN. The weather delay ended up lasting for 2 hours. Once it was over, David and Ben headed back to the game. Kate was begging to go back with them. Kate had been a nightmare all weekend so David didn't really want to take her and I could not blame him. David's pure brilliance shined through when his bribery of leftover Swedish fish and licorice (if she stayed at the hotel) pulled through with shining colors. When I finally had things under control with the 3 kids in pajamas and Emily fed, ESPN stopped coverage of the game. The delay had caused scheduling conflicts and they switched to a different game (even though the announcers had repeatedly been promising to continue coverage in Utah and Virginia). So, I finally got the kids to sleep and figured out how to get the game feed on my phone. There was not much time left in the game by this point, but BYU was winning. But, you guessed it Virginia scored within a minute or two and the game was over. BYU lost! Did I really just drive 4 hours for a game that I couldn't even watch on TV? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It had been such a miserable weekend that David and I almost bagged our plans to stop at Monticello (10 minutes from our hotel) on our way home the next day. I'm so glad we didn't because it was the saving grace of our entire trip. Our day started off great when we remembered to pack Kate's chrysalis jar from the hotel. If only we had remembered to take it out of the van during what ended up to be a 5-6 hour visit at Monticello! I wonder how hot the van got that day? I'm pretty sure we fried him. But, of course we didn't tell Kate. We do believe in miracles. </div>

Monticello was really neat, beautiful and I learned a lot. It was the home of Thomas Jefferson (our 3rd President) and the building you see on the back of the nickel. Thankfully, it was very kid-friendly. Ben even told us it was more fun than the football game (which is saying a lot for this kid). Here are some pictures from the day. </div>

I took a picture of this quote because Kate is always, always drawing. Hopefully, Thomas Jefferson was right when he said this. <br />

(Follow-up on the caterpillar: We convinced Kate that the chrysalis probably wasn't going to ever turn into a butterfly. She took the news gracefully and decided to return it. She said her goodbyes and ventured over to Bill's house with Ben. But, much to my surprise they returned WITH the jar. Bill googled it and told them that sometimes they hibernate all winter and don't come out until Spring. Their faith was renewed. Just as I was about to fess up they told me "if it doesn't come out in the spring it was probably because Ben accidentally dropped the jar on the way to Bills." I just don't have the heart to fess up and so our fried friend remains in his jar on top of Kate's dresser. What are the chances it will disappear without being noticed? To Be Continued) </div>

Where did the summer go? I'm still not sure!!! Ben is already in 3rd grade and Kate in 1st! This is a picture of Ben with his teacher Ms. Berlinger at "sneak a peak at your seat" day. </div>

Kate got the teacher of her dreams, Miss Baker! Blond hair. Blue Eyes. Even the same initials as Kate, KB. Kate was in heaven. She absolutely adored Miss Baker. She even made Miss Baker a card for their first visit. Miss Baker immediately hung it on her chalkboard (the blue, red and yellow house in the background). They were a perfect fit...at least until the school added another 1st grade class (3 weeks into the school year) and Kate was one of the lucky (or unlucky) ones that was chosen to be moved to a new class. When I broke the news to Kate she was HEARTBROKEN!!! She cried for hours. She locked herself in her room and didn't come out until she had figured out a plan to tie up one of Miss Baker's students and put their clothes on so she could sneak back into her class. When she realized that wouldn't work, she broke out singing Taylor Swift's song, "We are never, ever getting back together." Where and when did she even learn that song? She was a mess. What will her teenage years bring? I emailed the teachers. I phoned the principal. No luck. It was set in stone. And so, I'm still working on getting an updated picture of Kate and her new teacher Ms. Ritz. I'm sure in the end Ms. Ritz will be a great teacher (maybe even the best teacher for Kate), but she's going to face an uphill climb from this little blond, blue eyed KB. </div>

We attempted to teach Ben to ride a bike (again)! His fear of falling keeps getting in the way. This picture was David's attempt of cheering him up after one of the many times he stormed off. That little girl in the background begged and pleaded to have a turn without her training wheels on. David finally gave in (after 1-2 hours of no success with Ben). She practically rode off into the sunset on her first try. Ben was NOT happy! Kate beamed with pride! Another example of the fact that we all have our unique talents and struggles! </div>

And literally on the last day of summer Ben finally had the courage to take the swim test I had been encouraging him to take all summer. He passed without any problems and loved the 10 minutes he had left to jump off the diving board. He was so proud of his "Gangnam" style jump! </div>

The kids enjoyed the 24th of July Pioneer Day Party. They were suppose to dress like Pioneers. Kate and Jacob were excited to, but Ben wanted no part. He told me he would dress like Brigham Young and came upstairs in his BYU basketball outfit. Worked for me....points for creativity! </div>

We made our first trip to the Maryland State Fair. David had a momentary lack in judgment and let Kate pick a trumpet for a prize. We all regretted it. It took awhile, but it finally wore off! </div>

How did this happen? Kate is 6! She had a few simple requests for her birthday this year. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1. When David asked her what she wanted for her birthday she said, "All I really want is for you to be home." David started his fellowship on July 1st. We haven't seen much of him since that time. He leaves before the kids wake up and gets home after they go to bed. She definitely knows how to pull at his heartstrings!!!! Of course if David had the choice, he would have spent the whole day with her. But, since that wasn't an option, he got her some donuts the night before and left them out for her with a sweet note for the morning. He promised her a date to the movies on his next day off and worked so hard to make it home before she went to bed so that he could be there for cake and ice cream and to open presents. He had to make a few requests from his co-fellows to make it happen, but it happened! </div>

2. Her second request was to go down the water slide at the pool. An adult has to be in the water if you aren't a confident swimmer yet. Since I always have Emily and Jacob to take care of, it rarely happens for Kate. My friend Jana agreed to come to the pool that afternoon so that she could help me with Jacob and Emily. We picked up Chick-fil-A for lunch on the way to the pool and spent a fun afternoon swimming and sliding! </div>

3. Her third request was for a princess cake with a bridge and a river. Thankfully, my cake attempt satisfied her request. A few neighbors joined us for cake and ice cream. </div>

On our way home we were driving by Jamestown so we decided we better stop while we had the chance. We were glad that we did. The kids were great and really liked it. We were able to call Jae and his family on their way to the airport. They had a late flight out and had some time to spare so they met us there. If you know us, you know we love to play the game Settlers. And if you know how to play Settlers you'll find some humor in my favorite question of the day that came from Ben, "So is Jamestown like the first Settler's settlement that they layed?" I really liked the plaza. Each state was represented with its flag and a little information about its beginnings. </div>

The last stop of our trip was to Cafe Rio in Virginia for dinner. How can you drive near a Cafe Rio and not stop...no matter how tired you might be? We had a great trip! I'm pretty sure we took advantage of every hour together before David started fellowship. Thank you to Nana and Boo for helping us create so many awesome memories! </div>

On Thursday, we drove to the Roanoke Island Festival Park where we boarded a pirate ship, the Elizabeth II. I spent most of my time on the dock looking in the other direction. I was nervous Jacob was going to fall overboard...so David took over on the ship. The kids liked the Roanoke village where they got to dress in armour and trap each other in the guillotine. </div>

After the aquarium we all had lunch. Jacob ate a huge order of popcorn shrimp! From there, everyone else headed back to the beach house, except for our little family and Boo. We decided to stop at the Wright Brothers' First in Flight museum on our way back. We were driving right by it and although we were tired, we knew we'd never have a better opportunity. It was a quick trip, but we took some fun pictures and were glad we made the effort. My favorite part was when I took Kate to the bathroom. While she was washing her hands she looked up at me with amazement and asked, "Is this where the first men went to the bathroom?" It really was a priceless memory! </div>

Boo picked up donuts from Duck donuts for everyone and we ate and fished just after the sun rose. We even saw several dolphins swimming in the ocean. The kids all loved it. Each of them caught at least one fish and some even caught multiple fish on the same line. Of course, the hired fisherman from, "Bob's bait and tackle shop" had a lot to do with their success! They even gutted, cooked and ate their spoils!<br />

After all that fishing, the girls decided to head to the spa. Stephanie, Christina, Carly and I got pedicures and the little girls all got their nails polished. Crissy, Jerry and Lillian got massages. This was Kate's first time at a spa! She loved it...she's a smart girl! While we were at the spa, the boys all went go carting. </div>

Taylor was a great sport. He was so nice to the younger boys all week long. I'm pretty sure Ben thinks Taylor is just about as cool as they come. I overheard Ben telling a friend this week that "someday he would grow tall just like his cousin Taylor and then all the girls would like him too!" </div>

We loaded into 2 trucks. I sat in the cab with Jacob and Emily (who were complete angels) who had to ride in car seats. We drove along the ocean and around the sand dunes. Everyone loved it! We saw lots of wild, beautiful mustangs! <br />

Next on the list was family pictures. We headed back to the house and all cleaned up. Jerry had picked the color scheme and bought all of the grandkids corresponding outfits. I took lots of candid pictures of everyone (600+), while the photographer took other group shots. Of all the shirts (light blue, sea blue, aqua, etc.) David and Mike could have picked, I couldn't believe we bought the same one without talking about it first. I guess great minds think alike (that would be Christina and I)! Here are just some of my favorite pictures (that I took). </div>

It happened 3 months ago! Randy and Jerry Behrmann graciously rented a beautiful beach house in the Outer Banks (Corolla, NC) and invited the entire Behrmann family to spend an entire week. Our family had been looking forward to it for months. It gave us a chance to celebrate completing residency and a moment to relax before the rigors of fellowship began. The day finally arrived. David and I woke up at 4 AM, determined to get an early start and beat all that horrible traffic we had been warned about. We hit pockets of traffic throughout Northern Virginia, but thought we were doing pretty well. We were proud of ourselves for beating the rush. But, as we got closer to our destination we came to a standstill near the Wright Memorial Bridge. It continued across the bridge and the entire way up Highway 12. I honestly think I could have run the last 20 miles faster than we drove it. Seriously. In the end, it took us 10+ hours to drive map quests predicted 5.5 hour drive. Once we finally arrived I was determined to never leave that beach house. I did not want to sit in that traffic ever again. Miraculously, the kids were so good during it all. No one even had to use the bathroom. We were on that bridge for hours...I'm not sure what we would have done if they had needed to. I've never been so grateful for our DVD player.<br />
<br />
We were the first to arrive to the beach house. David took the oldest three kids for a walk down to the beach, while I fed Emily in the van. Jerry and Randy arrived just as I was finishing. We got into the house and explored. Jerry told me to take first pick of the rooms. I felt guilty taking the nicest room (for a few minutes), but Jerry insisted and reminded me that I had the most and youngest kids. If I've learned one thing being a Behrmann, it's that you don't argue with Jerry. I wasn't going to start now. This is a picture of the outside of the house and one of our room. <br />

We unpacked our bags and greeted everyone as they arrived. Jae and Lillian (Taylor, Carly and Luke) and Crissy and Justin (Elijah, Tuli and Satchel) were the next to arrive. We ordered pizza for dinner and got settled in. I was very sad and disappointed that Rob and Di and the girls (Natalee and Katherine) would not be able to join us. Sam had an unexpected admission to the hospital, so understandably they were not able to leave Texas. For me, things just didn't seem complete without them. We have a strong bond forged back during our Edmond days. Stephanie and Ralph (Christian, Coby, Chloe and Chase) arrived very late that night after we had already gone to bed.</div>

I was torn over Sunday. I knew I should make the effort to get the little kids up early and drive to church Sunday morning (fragments of a conference talk about a family who always went to church on their annual beach vacation even entered my mind), but I was exhausted and the thought of sitting in that horrific traffic with Emily again horrified me so I told David I just didn't have the energy. Instead, I read my Ensign and a few stories from the Friend to the kids. I felt guilty the entire time, until the others who had tried to make the trek to church returned and announced that it was Stake Conference and no one was at the ward building. The Stake center was 2-3 hours away. In a warped sense of reality (that I freely admit) I felt like Heavenly Father was telling me that is was okay I had skipped church...just this once. My guilt was gone. We spent the rest of the day relaxing at the beach house. Our family took a nice walk along the beach. The sun was bright and in the end Ben and Kate confiscated our sunglasses. We saw our first crabs of the week and collected our first shells. </div>

Mike and Christina (Ava and Colt) arrived later that night. If I remember correctly, we enjoyed hamburgers, hot dogs and homemade french fries from the grill for dinner and played our first round of Settlers that night. I lost, but I'm pretty sure I blamed it on the pure boredom created by Jae's incredibly slow turns. </div>

The long awaited day finally arrived!!! It was an eventful day, to say the least! June 14th was the last day of school for the kids, Kate's kindergarten graduation, the day oral board scores were released and David's residency graduation. We attended Kate's graduation in the morning and then took her, Jacob and Emily to the mall for a few hours that afternoon. Originally, oral board scores were suppose to be released at 3 pm, but there was a delay on the ABR (American Board of Radiology) website. It said they would not be released until 6 pm. David's graduation was at 5:30 pm, so as soon as Ben got off the bus at 4:20 we made a mad dash to Hopkins in hopes of capturing some pictures in front of the Hopkins dome (the original, historic hospital) before the ceremony started. Unfortunately, the sun was too bright and these were the best shots we got. We'll have to try again next year at fellowship graduation! </div>

On our way walking from the dome to the ceremony, David discovered that board results had been released, but he was not having any luck logging into the system on his phone. We arrived and all of his classmates (but one) had already found out that they had passed their boards. </div>

David helped the kids and I get seated and went to a work station to check his results. Still no luck. While he was gone, I realized that he would not be sitting with me and the kids during graduation. The thought hadn't even crossed my mind! I was not prepared. Awesome. I had the sole task of keeping 4 kids happy during a graduation ceremony. This was not a Mormon sacrament meeting where everyone has kids. This was a long anticipated graduation where everyone present already thought we were crazy for even having four kids, let alone during residency! There were even jokes from the microphone during graduation about David and all his children. I was doomed from the beginning. I started pleading with the kids to be good. "Of all the times I've ever wanted you to sit still and be quiet...this is it....please.... please.... please" I pleaded. I even forgot that David still hadn't found out his board results. I suddenly resented all the other parents with one child in their lap and 4 grandparents by their sides. One resident even came to me for a diaper. Why would I have diapers? OK fine, she got her choice of a pull-up, a size 3 and a size 5. At least I was prepared for something. It seemed like an eternity before graduation even started. The kids were already bored! </div>

David came back in...still no results. Graduation started. Ben and Kate were suddenly starving (even though we had fed them pizza before we left home). I promised them lots of yummy food at the reception following graduation. Didn't work. Jacob couldn't sit still and rocked his chair this way and that while giving any onlookers his mean face. Little Emily was as happy as could be, but wanted everyone to know it. She babbled and squawked. Normally very cute, but not right now. She sounded like a dolphin. A loud dolphin. My only break from complaints during the entire ceremony was during the 5 minute slide show (with music playing in the background) and the Harry Potter house competition announcements. Halfway through the ceremony, I noticed David giving me a thumbs up from the front row. For a second I thought he was cheering me on, until I realized he was trying to tell me that he had finally gotten through the system and he had found out that he had PASSED his boards. YEAH! Somehow, I had missed his text that had been sitting on my phone unopened for the last 10 minutes. I was a little preoccupied! This is how I will remember the graduation ceremony.<br />

I told David after the graduation that the ceremony was more stressful for me than all of his residency. Not really...but for a few moments it felt like it! A nice reception followed, but the kids were ready to go home (actually they were begging for McDonald's). They were not pleased with the food I had promised to be yummy. Truthfully, it wasn't. We took a few pictures and then I took the kids into the hall in hopes that David could at least enjoy his day. </div>

I asked him over and over what he wanted and all he would ever say was, "I don't need anything" or "make me a German chocolate cake." We'll save the cake for his birthday! We came up with this idea instead. I printed and framed it with the intent of hanging it next to his (many) diplomas in his future office. A lot of people can say they endured medical training, but not many can say they did that and had 4 kids during the course of it! <br />

Taking pictures was a group effort with lots of sweat and tears involved. It is very difficult to take a good picture of 4 tired kids in a hot sun room! Emily was great until she got hungry. Jacob was very upset with me from the get go. As soon as I put on his scrubs, he started to sob and said, "I too little to go to work." He wanted no part of it and was honestly worried I was going to send him off too work. He has seen David wear that same color of scrubs on a very frequent basis. This is one of the early pictures when his "too little" heart was still broken...<br />

Ms. Rahmaan was the perfect teacher for her. Kate was on cloud 9 at her little graduation ceremony. She was so happy that both Linda and Daddy could be there for her special day. Linda (our neighbor and one of Kate's best friends) brought Kate a special sock monkey that all of her friends autographed. Kate has Linda wrapped around her fingers...she loves her blonde hair, blue eyes and smile! Kate shared her graduation day with David who had his residency graduation later that night. Kate has one year under her belt and daddy has one year to go! <br />

And oh, how we miss them! They moved to Baltimore the year after we did for Ethan's residency training at Hopkins. We shared 3 years together before they headed back to Texas for Ethan's fellowship. We became fast friends. The kind of friends you will never forget! The kind you don't have to explain yourself to! The kind Jenna McDowell reminded me recently that you, "Don't cry because it's over, but smile because it happened." We spent many great hours together...<br />

This little girl is growing up too fast for me! She is so precious...an absolute perfect baby! Emily started rolling over on May 5th. She was so close for so long and was so proud of herself when she finally achieved her goal! She rolled back to front first and is now rolling both ways. <br />
