Whats that sayin'?

In like a lion, out like a lamb...right?  That is precisely how March has been! Oh, where to begin?  Okay, how about lets start with Ryder.  He started showing some protein in his urine in late February {brought on by a cold}.....we immediately restricted his sodium intake {to help prevent swelling} and gave his body a few weeks to try to "kick it" on its own. No such luck! We had to begin steroid treatment, but because it has been SO long since he has been on any medication {September}, his body responded swiftly and he is doing great now!  And he didn't swell!  His "Spring Break" begins tomorrow and he most likely will spend every minute possible at the barn with Chase.  He is preparing for a show in late May. :) 
Up next, Ridgeman!  He is finally showing some interest in preschool.  In the past we would sit down together to write his name, etc.and he would almost immediately inform me how tired he/his arm was and that he needed a break.  Funny kiddo anyways!  He is now sounding out words and beginning to read! I had forgotten how exciting it is to see that particular feat accomplished!  We {Ridge, Noah & I} have a mommy & me gymnastics class on Monday mornings that we have been going to for about 6 months.  It is really fun and engaging. And for $15 a month, its TOTALLY worth it!
Last but definitely not least, Noah.  Oh this child of mine is too fun!  He is SO smart and thoroughly enjoys every minute of life!  His potty-training was a definite success!! I have not changed a poopy diaper in almost 2 weeks.  He prefers to pee outside, even when we're home.  THAT is our issue at the moment. :)  I think he also out-talks Ryder and Ridge combined in a day!
I had a wonderful "girls" weekend in good ol' SLC {a couple weeks ago} with a dear friend.  I'm sorry to those that I never made it to visit, but I was too busy doing NOTHING!  No cleaning, laundry, errands, demands, etc....You get the point right?
Oh ya, and last Friday I went to opening night of.....THE HUNGER GAMES!  I loved it.
