Motschiedler Madness

We had a fun-filled month!

DESH turned ONE!!!! Wow! So exciting. We had a fun little party for him and he got to eat his first piece of real cake. And of course, he LOVED it. He's a happy little guy! He's starting to walk and getting braver every day. He's now pointing at things when he wants something. He loves pulling and dropping all of his books off of his shelf every chance he gets. He loves driving around remote controls, tupperware, books, blocks and the occasional toy car. He LOVES music and sort of goes into a "bopping" trance anytime he hears it. We are starting weekly swim lessons today in hopes that he will overcome his fear of wet hair.

ALLYSON is busy busy! They always say being a stay at home mom is a lot of work, but I never really knew how much it until now! I'm loving it. When Deshy is happily playing by himself or sleeping, I am creating a website for a friend who represents fashion and jewelry designers in Australia. I am also busy doing the bookkeeping and overseeing the management of our apartment complex. I had so much fun planning and throwing a party for Deshy last month. I went a little crazy. But your first born only turns '1' once, right??? Check out pictures on our blog: madmott.blogspot.com. AND if one blog isn't enough, I've taken on the challenge of a 365 blog for 2012, which is a picture a day. Check that out here: mottproject365.blogspot.com. 

KEN is busy working and playing with Deshy. He took us to the Cat Haven up in Dunlap last weekend and we got to see lions and tigers and...cheetahs! They had leopards and jaguars and some other pretty amazing kitties. We were standing about 5 feet away from the tiger when he decided he didn't want the tour guide talking to him and he jumped up on his hind legs and let out a loud scary roar! I jumped behind Ken and Deshy broke into tears. It was so cool! If you haven't been, you need to check it out. Ken is also busy overseeing the work being done at our apartment complex. We are improving its beauty in hopes of enticing new tenants! We are also ready for another project and Ken is meeting with our broker to stat the search all over again for another complex. Can you say....double the work? Yowzers.

I think that about covers it. See you in April!

Hello Everyone!  This message is from the Boggs/Loveland clan.  Mathias is a busy high school senior.  He is still taking college credit classes and working hard.  He plays football whenever he gets the chance, snow or not.  He recently was award the Sterling Scholar Foreign Language for his school and he is taking a cooking class (at least he will know how to cook a few things).  He has started working on his mission papers and we are excited.

 

DeeAnn (mom) is working and beginning to look for more work as hours have been cut for everyone at the grocery store where she works.  She is also trying to figure out if she can manage to go to school some more and finish a degree!  She is still learning and also enjoying the grand-children (five now).  THey are so cute!  Any ideas out there of work DeeAnn could do from home???  Sure do love you all and enjoy hearing news about your lives, sorry to be so bad at writing myself.
