The Ever-so-sought-after Update


Wesley in April

Greetings everyone! You may have wondered what we've been up to since our last post, so here's the rundown:
  • May: Spring finals for Mikail and Jared (all passed, sigh of relief), full-time summer schedule for Mikail (which she rocked), Jared=Mr. Mom for a few weeks while applying to residency programs, Wesley crawls all over while we smile and try not to trip over him.
The crawling days
  • June: Was there a June this year? We finished another furniture recovering project, went to the circus as a family, and we spent hours requesting, printing, signing, and mailing the seemingly endless sea of application forms. We were all a little beat, and this was when our back yard started looking like the untamed Amazon...

  • July: Preschool for William (awesome), Wesley starts walking on his own, Mikail rocks more summer classes as her 2nd year of law school wraps up, perio interviews start and go well for Jared, we enjoy almost an entire week of mutual summer break, and dental school starts up again.

  • August: Uncle Bryce comes home from his mission, Jared finishes residency interviews and accepts an offer at Nebraska (sigh of relief), our boys chase each other around the ottoman in the front room almost constantly, and the laughing never ceases. Mikail is taking 18 credits in stride this semester, and we celebrate 5 wonderful years of marriage.

And here we are in September. We're grateful to our friends and family for all the support over these last few (crazy) months--and years.

All our love,

The Roberts Family

Absolutely adorable!! Wesley looks so much older with his haircut. Of course, William too. We are so proud of all your accomplishments ---- it is exhausting just reading them. You have been busy. Give everybody a big Roberts hug.

Wow. And wow! You have been BUSY. Nice work managing it all so successfully! The boys are too cute. Some of the pictures totally remind me of Jared as a little dude, which is fun. Maybe we'll get motivated to post some pictures now too! And congratulations on the perio news, we're so proud! Loved the whole update.
