It was the typical coloring of Easter eggs, Easter baskets and an Easter egg hunt. It was a nice celebration.

He call me in Phoenix about 2am, scared and not sure what to do. Our friends really jumped in and helped us. We appreciate them so much. Scott came over in the middle of the night to hang out with Troy since I couldn't be there. Janet came and watched our girls. And, Annette and Nate let our girls go color Easter eggs at their house. We are so grateful for everyone's support and Troy is doing much better now.

At the time, I was certain that no kid of mine would ever do ballet. Boy, was I wrong! Not only does she love dance, but I love to watch her too. She did 2 different dances. The first one was to a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3rJVXR8xD8&list=UUoYVRA6hSYp6R7iGeWs1mbA&index=10&feature=plcp">french song</a>. The other dance was to "<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD-twSBO6xo&feature=relmfu">Jeremiah was a bullfrog</a>".<br />
<br />
I put her in a higher level class this time. On the first day they learned a lot and were moving fast. I had my doubts about whether I put her in the right class. She even expressed her doubts to me as well. We decided to have her stick it out and I'm so proud of her. She practiced a lot and learned the steps. She did a great job!

This girl has been a joy to have in our family. She is sweet, sensitive, calm and very easy going. She has made the transition into 2 kids very easy. She idolizes her older sister and loves to copy her. Erica is very tolerant and plays well with Sadie.

California Adventure. It was a fun trip and we were glad it worked
out. We had a few mishaps - Erica pushing Sadie off the bunk bed and
Sadie not feeling great. Overall, it went much better than our last
trip to Disney when Erica was potty training. There was a large group and it took some coordinating, but I was surprised by how much we actually got to see each other.

I don't think she will be going on that one for a few more years. She didn't seem to mind going up high on the rides, she just didn't like to go fast. </td></tr>

After my girls weekend, we met up with my family again. We gave the girls gifts from our Taiwan trip. We said our goodbyes to my family and met up with Troy's family the next day at the beach. It was time for the Tegeder Disneyland/Beach trip to begin. We did beach, Disney, California Adventure, beach and more Disney. Did I mention I had very little sleep in the month of February??<br />

February was a crazy busy month. Troy and I took the red eye flight home from Taiwan and landed in Los Angeles early in the morning. We spent all morning looking for a hotel near the beach. My parents were kind enough to drive our girls from Arizona to California to meet us for the weekend. We met up with them and my brother's family in the afternoon and went to the beach and dinner. After a few hours, I said goodbye to them and Troy and went to my girl's weekend in La Jolla. <br />

Moana's mother in law was so nice to let us borrow her beachfront home in La Jolla for this reunion. You could see the ocean out these windows. We literally spent the entire time on these couches and occasionally got up to eat or sleep. We laughed, talked, cried and comforted. These are amazing and strong women. I had a wonderful time. </td></tr>

It just so happened to be to Taiwan. Embarrassingly, I had to look at a map to know exactly where it was located...and I had to read Wikepedia to know what language was spoken there (Chinese). <br />

We didn't know what was going on at the time, but he was pretty convinced he was dying. He gave me his last words and almost passed out. Thank goodness we were with Scott (see above) at that time. He got us into a great hospital, translated for the ER people and I feel like he essentially saved Troy's life. We later found out that Troy has SVT, a non-life threatening heart condition. Nearly everyone who has their first SVT episode thinks they're dying, and winds up in the ER. Troy was no exception. That will be for another post, but he was going to be okay, just really tired for the next few days. We took our second day off and only spent an hour at the National Museum in Taipei. Our third morning, he felt good enough to hop on the high speed train and head to Taichung to meet the manufacturers of the baby toothbrushes.</td></tr>

The blurry wall to the right of the bed is actually the shower. You can push a button and the whole wall instantly turns into a window. We enjoyed a night of swimming and professional massages for all our "hard work". We were just getting adjusted to the completely opposite time schedule when it was time to head home. Four days in the country wasn't enough. I would love to go back and visit again someday. </td></tr>

It started off with a calling in church (1st counselor in RS). The following day, a wonderful family in our ward tragically lost their father. He was in his late 30s with five children. It is still shocking and my heart and thoughts are constantly with this family. Because of my new calling, the next few weeks were filled with doing anything we could to help ease this family's pain. It has really helped me to value my relationship with my husband and children and to enjoy every moment. <br />
<br />
Life continued to roll on, even though I sometimes felt like it should freeze for awhile. We kept busy with work, church and kid activities:<br />

I thought some of the hilarity that spewed forth from Erica tonight was definitely blog-worthy, so here it is.<br /><br />We started by going to Pei-Wei, which is not on Nancee's favorites list, but it is on mine. Since I had a coupon and no Nancee with me, dinner was a no-brainer. After dinner, (which consisted primarily of fortune cookies for Sadie,) we went up to the north side of town to the Winterhaven Festival of Lights. This decision was last-minute, since Erica actually slept on the drive to Pei-Wei (after vehemently fighting a nap a few hours before). This nap was the only way she could survive Winterhaven, and even then her survival turned out to be questionable at best. She made it about half a block.<br /><br />Luckily, what were the best two houses were in that half a block. Guess who's favorite this one was:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKDWBfkuubGZkusM5C9iIV-gYkjje_c4ZcYQqaeYV6Lnz0ujg7OxIplRbW4KFNP7AL4CBMc2NPQoF2OqdRaEwVtYuerGRD7A3U2kKC5LpF-oL6kJM1hKQdnfI62URgzOG-GxhoEaHdT6uu/s1600/WinterhavenPrincessHouse.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKDWBfkuubGZkusM5C9iIV-gYkjje_c4ZcYQqaeYV6Lnz0ujg7OxIplRbW4KFNP7AL4CBMc2NPQoF2OqdRaEwVtYuerGRD7A3U2kKC5LpF-oL6kJM1hKQdnfI62URgzOG-GxhoEaHdT6uu/s320/WinterhavenPrincessHouse.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5689536016780644738" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Erica could name every Disney Princess couple there. The picture's not great, but it's also not too bad considering I was holding a squirming 1-year-old at the time.<br /><br />Then we came to this house. I love the programmed lights choreographed to music, but this one took it to the next level with a lit fountain too. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cD4jw_6OrOw"> Click here to see a video of it</a>.<br /><br />It's too hard to tell in the dark, but Sadie is dancing her head off. She wormed her way to the front of the crowd, cheering and clapping at the end of each song. Way fun. We had been at the festival of lights for all of 10 minutes, and Erica was already whining to go back. We did stop at the princess house again, at which point Erica proclaimed it to be better than the fountain house. I planned on taking a ton of pictures, but the picture you don't see is me with my arms full carrying both girls out of Winterhaven. Not enough arms for pictures.<br /><br />Despite my efforts to get all her pee out in the restaurant, and despite the fact that I had been carrying her for a while, Erica said "all this walking is making my pee come. I have to RIGHT NOW!" I quickly walked to a Quik Mart. Think of whatever pops into your mind when you hear the words "gas station bathroom", then hit the 3rd world country bathroom button a couple times, and you have the bathroom that the 3 of us found ourselves in. It was more like a chemical storage cellar with a toilet. The linoleum was missing in most places, there were cans of oil and de-greaser on a precarious shelf which Sadie started to inch towards, and the room had about 3 square feet of floor space. Erica saw the bright side: "Wow! It smells good in here! and look! It has ducks! I like this bathroom!" I guess some of the heavy cleaners on the old shelf and the 40-year-old, peeling duck wallpaper had more value than meets the eye.<br /><br />Then the conversation on the drive home:<br /><br />Erica: "Daddy, can you talk to me about boys and girls? Please?"<br />Me: "Sure. What do you want to know?"<br />Erica: "What if you put the wrong stuff on a baby when it came out of your belly and you didn't know if it was a boy or a girl?"<br />Me (interpreting this as a question of controlling gender at birth): "Well, you were a girl spirit before you were born so you got a girl body, and I was a boy spirit before I was born so I got a boy body."<br />Erica: "How does the baby get in the mommy's tummy?"<br />Me (figuring I'm perfectly within my right to dodge this question for another few years): "Well, when a mom and dad are married and they are ready to have a baby, the baby grows in the mom's belly."<br />Erica "But how does it get in the mom's belly? Can you talk to me about it daddy? Please?" (That's a direct quote. It's like she KNEW I was hiding something.)<br />Me: "... ... (then repeated previous answer.)"<br />At that point I was saved by McDonalds: "Look! A play place!" Conversation diverted.<br /><br />Then we talked at length about how she was scared to have a baby, and she's scared it will hurt. All things I want her to be deathly afraid of until she's 25. Then she cried a bit about how she missed being 3 years old. We talked about time, and how you can't speed it up or slow it down. Erica asked if time is a special machine. It's interesting seeing how her mind works. I also thought it was cool when we looked at some really tall trees with lights in them and she said "I wonder how they got the lights in those trees." She's a thinker.<br /><br />Well, at least I thought it was a blog-worthy night.

I've (finally) been feeling a little frumpy lately, so I had an "intervention" from friends and we did a "What Not to Wear" experiment. We went through my closet and threw out half my clothes. Then, they took me on a shopping spree.

Quit my job.It's time for Troy to write his semi-annual blog post! And yes, I quit my job. My last day of stable paychecks is Thursday. And we couldn't be more excited!<br /><br />I started making iPhone apps about 2 years ago for fun, and for a little extra cash. I quickly got hooked, and found myself coding apps during almost all of my spare time, and constantly thinking up future apps to develop. Now that my app development business is stable, I'm taking it full time. Needless to say, I can't wait to have a 30-foot commute from my bed, work on my own schedule, have complete control over my projects, and simply love what I do every day. Nancee can't wait for me to be the dad at home more so she can spend a bit more time on her legal practice.<br /><br />We're both financially risk adverse people, but we've done our homework and we're in a good spot to go for it.<br /><br />On a related note, my new app "Dino Digger" is now in the iTunes app store and the Android market! I've done a lot of beta testing with Erica and her friends, and the kids love it. Even Sadie likes it. The concept is simple: dig up dinosaur bones, build them into dinosaur skeletons that respond to touches and shakes, then bring them to life and interact with live, animated dinosaurs.<br /><br />For iPhone / iPod / iPad:<br /><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dino-digger/id467891985?mt=8">DinoDigger</a><br /><br />For Android:<br /><a href="https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tegtap.dinodigger&feature=search_result">DinoDigger</a><br /><br />Here are some screenshots:<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQD2xphQeRVLJwP0O3bIaAE2X7gwcJJ7Xgn0tZTRf_gpeo4qCLfIAzuSgMt6v80va-QF4zKCqydCzmW37W9J7-aO58fE2UY1C_5totoqexPf8DnnJciXJxQ1tFxkx7RnCdFw1kFwgTvvQx/s1600/iPad+Digging.png"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQD2xphQeRVLJwP0O3bIaAE2X7gwcJJ7Xgn0tZTRf_gpeo4qCLfIAzuSgMt6v80va-QF4zKCqydCzmW37W9J7-aO58fE2UY1C_5totoqexPf8DnnJciXJxQ1tFxkx7RnCdFw1kFwgTvvQx/s320/iPad+Digging.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658161032477421314" border="0" /></a> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEincQ8ycNBO7woyW7-RzITJCRTcUayWmRvFkVPqwaqAk8UOifXb0Zheb94Ek4uiNneKHNRfrd_FVlxnVkRernc1l_xjQ_NAw96ijnqgoGmXp7hRBbolIulNNGBEjHkR7nxUUpGb-vH4gLUz/s1600/iPad+Building.png"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEincQ8ycNBO7woyW7-RzITJCRTcUayWmRvFkVPqwaqAk8UOifXb0Zheb94Ek4uiNneKHNRfrd_FVlxnVkRernc1l_xjQ_NAw96ijnqgoGmXp7hRBbolIulNNGBEjHkR7nxUUpGb-vH4gLUz/s320/iPad+Building.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658161278688038914" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9Srve3EiaBleu27q0pRnwIcZ6e0gcDnWKZi95phWNYD5SbU87jA34VDYqhiDsXnYI1JTA9Ez7J-BLnOXfqieZe4CtwHf6yr_NYqXN9AsJWy-7nb53u_CzQjipeqyKzcVA-0KjEm4Hijd7/s1600/iPhone+Roaring.png"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9Srve3EiaBleu27q0pRnwIcZ6e0gcDnWKZi95phWNYD5SbU87jA34VDYqhiDsXnYI1JTA9Ez7J-BLnOXfqieZe4CtwHf6yr_NYqXN9AsJWy-7nb53u_CzQjipeqyKzcVA-0KjEm4Hijd7/s320/iPhone+Roaring.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658161801670711938" border="0" /></a> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhi0uWD7XirDyvSJlQdLcHae0fY2t0upyzRYgoJ6YtqYykAcyOreCGVnpK3Eba6bFXo_RoARcF86y23lOSbnoh3_2tpZJQCjz-R_E0X48wrxzppoHbGYRAlwtjrov4Skxgx64-1jrgUSz_m/s1600/iPad+Lotso.png"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhi0uWD7XirDyvSJlQdLcHae0fY2t0upyzRYgoJ6YtqYykAcyOreCGVnpK3Eba6bFXo_RoARcF86y23lOSbnoh3_2tpZJQCjz-R_E0X48wrxzppoHbGYRAlwtjrov4Skxgx64-1jrgUSz_m/s320/iPad+Lotso.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658161675976933810" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJnGkhvhTz4jJOGFKn6sm-6u439_sJEbEDJG1L2j7qXOLpFYQURGPoqJUCHocEebBOrOrPrXFzpdd4LzMfS03BuUCRmdFUEJSAJ5IZQK5ZmG8zFmQrcZgoMB-mCkFWgF3fs95yYjUVrleW/s1600/Droid+Earthquake.png"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 192px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJnGkhvhTz4jJOGFKn6sm-6u439_sJEbEDJG1L2j7qXOLpFYQURGPoqJUCHocEebBOrOrPrXFzpdd4LzMfS03BuUCRmdFUEJSAJ5IZQK5ZmG8zFmQrcZgoMB-mCkFWgF3fs95yYjUVrleW/s320/Droid+Earthquake.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5658161466931252946" border="0" /></a><br /><br />If any of you know kids with iPads (based on my family's experience, they always end up being used most by the kids), spread the word.

My sister managed to do a great <a href="http://tuberandbeth.blogspot.com/2011/09/happy-birthday-erica.html">blog post</a> about her on her actual birthday. I am attempting to catch up.<br /><br />We love having Erica - we have some of our greatest highs of parenting and, of course, some of our lows. Erica has really grown up into a little girl this past year. We are beyond the toddler stage and it is fantastic.<br /><br />She is potty trained and is mostly dry every night. She speaks very well and is very inquisitive. She wants to know about everything, including things like death and cavities. She asks, "why" a million times a day. And "what if..." questions, for example, "what if you don't love me", "what if I don't get bigger", "what if (fill in the blank with the opposite of whatever I was just talking about)".<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracehttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.giffully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVET4P8Tqo8M9_jySNmnVEwLUeU63JErzoyCy6pt93I4sbnss4oaRS19lXhyphenhyphen1fmUDtH0eEyEaczYwZK4xKlu5r0wvf8oa18McwE2YvQLXdWWWFQv0wT_5fJrqQbzYDmXgthTGs1FX6vv6y/s1600/IMG_2298.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVET4P8Tqo8M9_jySNmnVEwLUeU63JErzoyCy6pt93I4sbnss4oaRS19lXhyphenhyphen1fmUDtH0eEyEaczYwZK4xKlu5r0wvf8oa18McwE2YvQLXdWWWFQv0wT_5fJrqQbzYDmXgthTGs1FX6vv6y/s320/IMG_2298.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5655410639483452178" border="0" /></a><br /><br />She goes to preschool three times a week and does one activity a week - either gymnastics or ballet. She LOVES both. We just finished up her ballet class and you can see videos of her recital <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHKssp8SjKo">here</a> and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDu6fcWwm0A">here</a>. We will start gymnastics again soon and she is very excited. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7iZsadlsbMEB_iZV51SxculcKYLyrzEGTj_x0RemD9uM45kBUlUJnRc8jNYXWY2t5vKk1AWDALSeksH_Gm-JYzRsMOCSwigFY3HCHsGqOtxUt5_dW23CSVIi-uiIV0tR9Bn-bfI1XAN1Z/s1600/IMG_2235.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7iZsadlsbMEB_iZV51SxculcKYLyrzEGTj_x0RemD9uM45kBUlUJnRc8jNYXWY2t5vKk1AWDALSeksH_Gm-JYzRsMOCSwigFY3HCHsGqOtxUt5_dW23CSVIi-uiIV0tR9Bn-bfI1XAN1Z/s320/IMG_2235.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5655410626237701986" border="0" /></a><br /><br />She is a great big sister to Sadie.

She listens and minds well. She is a fantastic artist, which she definitely inherited from her dad. She is a bit of a drama queen and very girly. I am a little worried about how that will play out when she is a teenager. She is a really great girl and comes with a lot of intensity. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh66OcM-IlWOx90Q8o5iPlmjrb5friSvSsc4J0YhFwyH-TP5RKGhpBVWIOJ1Txfr7mllR87js21PuQk5FEaIeNnpnyDFR0jV8X9r7nhdzsi7RKMumb-8PXdz4C6gIcpaZEM7lZN6xEVTwLQ/s1600/IMG_2371.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh66OcM-IlWOx90Q8o5iPlmjrb5friSvSsc4J0YhFwyH-TP5RKGhpBVWIOJ1Txfr7mllR87js21PuQk5FEaIeNnpnyDFR0jV8X9r7nhdzsi7RKMumb-8PXdz4C6gIcpaZEM7lZN6xEVTwLQ/s320/IMG_2371.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5655412618198630834" border="0" /></a><br /><br />We decided to throw her a real birthday party. She had about 15 friends over. She is a great friend to others. She is sensitive to their needs, she shares and apparently, according to her preschool teacher, she is popular at school. I guess there have been a few tears shed by other students if they can't sit by her. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvtNyeUxBcSubs75tYpUxJJikZ6Q0vUfh2uxeO7JqcH3aD7eWDjvYgPbWlw4YvxjFNSGgb570hWBrH0n_ChS1VksdQ0O-yPNpAqj10C-BEeybvP-5S_Zo2zUaRWrtiViWFTn8Nn38sKhOE/s1600/IMG_2331.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvtNyeUxBcSubs75tYpUxJJikZ6Q0vUfh2uxeO7JqcH3aD7eWDjvYgPbWlw4YvxjFNSGgb570hWBrH0n_ChS1VksdQ0O-yPNpAqj10C-BEeybvP-5S_Zo2zUaRWrtiViWFTn8Nn38sKhOE/s320/IMG_2331.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5655412112016744242" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Erica's party consisted of games (planned by Troy) - such as pin Pascal on Rapunzel's hand and throw water balloons at Erica's dad. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5AioHCUKD21jHLyvFagMeRQ6FfA_vkGcCIQZjF1aebHJOI9XZSVJgI3pVCg9pZjYjfKBanzcQy20BhzOEsWv6dGSUQxrfZ-Yi6PZUzXYFaWbs2jdVnvHeRouGQuGRWPC0pD6QXCcosLix/s1600/IMG_2326.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5AioHCUKD21jHLyvFagMeRQ6FfA_vkGcCIQZjF1aebHJOI9XZSVJgI3pVCg9pZjYjfKBanzcQy20BhzOEsWv6dGSUQxrfZ-Yi6PZUzXYFaWbs2jdVnvHeRouGQuGRWPC0pD6QXCcosLix/s320/IMG_2326.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5655412108518180610" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Then we let the kids decorate their own cupcakes.
