halloween party and the airport

October 30th we went to Jevan's family's Halloween party.  We always dress up and carve pumpkins and then eat a big dinner.  It really was a lot of fun!  Jevan was an dead inmate, I was a cop and Jade was piglet. 

On October 31st my little brother Stephen got home from his mission in South Korea.  A lot of our family was there to greet him at the air port.  Most of us dressed up for Halloween.  It was fun to introduce him my Jade and the other three new grandkids he hadn't met yet.  He is doing great and even tho he sounds kind of funny, and smells like Korea it's great to finally have him home!

My sister Emily made these signs for all of the grandkids to hold the said "Trick or Treat it's time to meet........"  and then we all wrote in our kids names.  

My little One year old!

Sorry I haven't posted in a long time.  Life has been pretty busy.  In September I started working at the Bear River Health Department, for their flu season.  I've enjoyed it so far.

My little brother Stephen will get home from his mission on Halloween!  I can't wait! 

Okay on to the exciting news!  Jade just turned ONE!!!  I can't believe how fast time has flown by. We had a little party on her b-day with some family and close friends.  I thought it was pretty fun to watch her open her presents and eat her cake.   I was hoping she'd dig into her cake and make a mess, but she didn't, she just picked at it and ate it piece by piece and would lick off her sticky fingers.  She got some great gifts and has been playing with them all non stop.  Most of them make noise, sing songs, and light up and she loves that!

Halloween is only 2 months away...

Fairy-Princess-Tutu.com is getting ready for Halloween.  If you know of any little Princesses who need fairy tutus or costume fairy wings or wands please send them my way.  

Summer Family Pics

I been trying to get family pictures done for a while.  Finally I convinced my sister to take some for us.  So we went out on the railroad tracks by the logan golf course and had some taken on Friday.  I hope my sister doesn't mind me putting these up here without them being touched up first.  Okay just one or two or four for now.  I promise to post more when they are finished.  

catch up time

 Well nothing too exciting has happened lately...

 We did celebrate our 3rd anniversary.  We were married June 17th 2006 in the Logan Temple. It was a beautiful day and everything went perfectly.  Well to celebrate this year we didn't do a whole lot.  We took Jade with us and we went to Olive Garden and ate and then we walked through the new Walmart. Romantic huh?  lol well I enjoyed it.  Pretty simple and relaxing.  

  The first week in July we had Jevan's moms family reunion in the Uintahs.  We got there Wednesday afternoon and stayed till Saturday afternoon.  It was so fun even tho it rained and poured the whole time.  We had my parents 8 man tent, so we had plenty of room.  It did leak a little but not where we were sleeping, thankfully.  Jade did so good up on the mountain.  She took naps and even slept good at night even tho it was cold and rainy.  We did miss all the fireworksfor the 4th  but we are glad to go to Mendon's this weekend on the 25th.  

  This past month Jevan has started selling berries for his dad again, so he's been up early and gone till late.  It stinks having him gone all day long but I guess it's worth it.  Eating berries isn't too bad either.  lol!  

  Jade is 9 months old today!!!  I can't believe how fast time is flying by.  She has been crawing on all 4's for a month or two now i can't even remember when she decided to do that.  It has been so exciting and fun to watch her learn new things and grow up. She has also been pulling herself up on everything and trying to walk along the furniture.  She has also begun to make all kinds of funny noises and if you make one of them to her she'll mimick you.  I love it.  My favorite is when she growls.  So adorable!  I can't believe she'll be a year in just 3 months.  I feel like she was just born yesterday! She's deffinately not my little baby anymore.  

  The last thing is Jevan and I are reading the Twilight series.  He probably doesn't want me telling everyone this, but he is really enjoying them.  He is halfway through book #2 and I just finished #3 and started #4 yesterday.  We are trying to get them all read by the time the New Moon comes out in Nov.  I can't wait!   I have already read the whole series but I thought I should re-read them.  Any one who hasn't read them, I think you should.  They are fun and entertaining. 

  Well thats just about it.  Thanks for reading. 

A Baby White Tiger

Sorry, but this is another cute outfit of hers I love.

Isn't this the cutest kitty you've ever seen?

Randomness...

The past few months have flown by.  I don't think life will ever slow down. Here are some random pictures I've taken.  

This is Jade all dressed up in her little pink/brown giraffe dress, it had this matching hat. She looked so adorable in it i just couldn't resist a photo shoot.

My little poka dot!

Can anyone say MOOOOOO!  Love this outfit too!  She wanted the camera so bad.

Jevan and I went to the Super Cross in April it was in SLC.  It was just us 2, our moms took shifts watching Jade. We went down in the early afternoon, the actual race didn't start till 6 or so.  It was so fun to walk around the pits and see all the bikes and other crazy people.  lol!  We had some good seats, great company and lots of cold and rain!

It's been a while

Sorry it has been a couple weeks since I last updated. I've been waiting to post till I download all the pictures off my camera, but there isn't enough room on our computer.  lol!  So I will just post now and put pics up later. 

  Well where to start?  Jade is almost 7 months old, and 21 lbs.  She is starting to get those top teeth in which have been a little rough.  She has had a fever the last 2 days ranging from 99.9 to 102.2 so if she still has one tomorrow I have to take her in.  It's so sad when babies are sick.  

  Last week on mother's day we went out to my parents and were able to talk to my little brother on the phone. He is on a mission in South Korea, and only has 5 months left.  I can't wait to see him.  For Mother's day I bought myself some cute shorts and I also got a badly needed hair cut.  We also went out to Lewiston to Jevan's sisters house for a BBQ.  It was beautiful weather, and we were able to walk through her new house, which I loved (got some good ideas for when we build someday). 

   We've just been playing and enjoying being outside.  Jade and I have been pulling weeds and trying to make our yard look good.  Jevan even showed me how to drive our riding lawn mower if you're lucky i'll put pics of that up later. lol!

Early Easter Eggs Hunt

This past saturday my family all got together to watch General Conference, we also had our Easter Egg hunt for the little kids.  Jade was sleeping so I collected her eggs for her. 

Before the egg hunt started we played a quick game of red light, green light to keep the kids occupied. 

All the grandkids (minus sleeping Jade) posing with their candy filled eggs.  They were so excited to be getting all that candy. My parents have 10 grandkids all under the age of 5. 

Jevan was hurrying off to eat the candy before I could get some of it.  

Once we went inside Jade was awake waiting for us to play with her. We showed her the eggs we got for her, she loved playing with them and sucking all over them.  Next year will be so fun with her running around.

5 months old!

So in the past month Jade has gained a little over a pound.  She now weighs 19.08 lbs.  Crazy I know.  Lately I have been trying to get jade to roll over, say momma or dada, and eat rice cereal. Well finally today I have succeeded in all three!  yeah!!!

She has been eating rice cereal the past month and finally isn't spitting out every bite. 

She yells "dadadddaaa dadda!" I think it's her curse word. Lol!  She only does it when she's kind of mad. Haha!

Then today we were out at my mom's house and she just rolled over like it was no big deal, and then she kept doing it over and over.  I was so excited!!! Our little wookie is getting so big, I can't believe how fast time is flying by. Before I know it i'm sure she'll be walking.

Oh so I have another thing to add to Jades 5 month old list..... between last night (march 24th) and this morning (march 25th) she had her first tooth come through on the bottom.  It looks like 3 others are coming in close behind.  blagh! Wow it seems like she is getting so big so fast, and i can't slow it down.  

Rice Cereal Baby!

The first week of March I decided to start Jade on rice cereal. 

She couldn't quite decide if she liked it or not, 

but it was sure fun to watch her try to eat it. 

Little Jade in her sunday dress. Her chubby little feet barely fit in those shoes.  

I love her chubby legs in her tights, they really emphasize the rolls.  

St. George Race

This past weekend we went down to the St. George desert race.  I decided to be brave and take Jade with.  She did really well.  We had a fun time sitting out enjoying the warm weather and getting way sunburned, while Jevan raced his dirt bike.  

Just a quick fill up and then on his way, well almost his bike was 

having electrical problems so he had to be push started.

Jevan and his buddy Steve at the starting line.

Jade and I just chillin waiting for the day to get going.

Just before the start

I don't want to go outside!

So cute with all the flowers! They last about five minutes 

then they get ripped off by her flailing hands!

Our cute little family. We had Emily take some pics for us with our camera not the best back ground but it works. Look another flower!

Look what Michelle made when I was at the moto race how fun!
