Two Days in a Row!

Here is one for today! I was surprised I got one today, but I did, yeah! Again, pretty simple, but at least it's done!

On a Roll!

So, I'm on a roll today for scrapbooking, don't worry though, I'm sure it won't last too long! These are what I got done today. They are pretty simple, but that's why I was able to get four of them done in a couple of hours! Now I just need to hurry and get Jaxon caught up and I will feel better, but I don't really think that's going to happen!

Brynn's One Year Pictures & Jaxon's Three Year Pictures

We had another session with our wonderful photographer, our very talented neighbor Emily last Friday. We took the kids down by the lake and took some pictures then went to a park right by our house to do some more. The kids were pretty good, oh who am I kidding, they weren't that good at all! Brynn was good for the first 10 minutes and Jaxon was a booger to start with, but I think she still got some great shots. Emily said she was embarrassed to give the CD to me because she didn't think they turned out very good...all this stuff about lighting and the background, stuff I don't really notice too much! She really wants to do them again, so I told her if she had to...who can have too many pictures of their sweet children right? There are a lot more pictures I could have posted, but I thought that would be like cruel and unusual punishment to some of you, so here are some of my favorites! Ok, I'm off to pick up the house and wake the kids up from their nap so they can show our house...AGAIN!

Slacker!

So, I know I haven't been posting as much as I used to and I haven't done a scrap book page in who knows how long, but it seems every time I sit down at the computer and do all the stuff I have to do, I am tired and decide to go read a book then fall asleep for about a 1/2 hour on the couch. I know it sounds pretty lazy, but I have been so stinkin' tired this pregnancy I figure I better nap while I can because in about 5 months, I won't have that luxury. So, as long as my kids are still napping at the same time, I am going to try to sneak in a nap here or there!

Brynn had her weight check on Monday and she is up to 17 lbs 7 oz, so she gained 1.5 lbs in 6 weeks which the doctor was very happy about. I am pretty happy too, only 2.5 lbs to go until she can turn around in her carseat! We're hoping by her 15 month appointment on July 30!

I also had a doctors appointment last week on Thursday and everything is great and the really exciting part is that we scheduled the big ultrasound for June 26! I am very excited and can hardly wait!

Ladybugs!

A couple of weeks ago Daybreak had a ladybug release party thing at all of the community gardens, so Jason, the kids and I ventured to our garden to join in. Apparently ladybugs are carnivorous and eat other bad bugs in the garden so they are really good to for the gardens, don't worry, we made sure we got lots in our garden plot :)

They didn't start until 8:00 pm and that is 1/2 past the kids' bedtime, so we got Brynn in her pj's and ventured out. She wasn't too sure what was going on, but thought it was fun to watch everyone.

At first Jaxon wasn't too sure about the ladybugs. The kid releasing the ladybugs tried to put one on Jaxon, but he wasn't having any of that.

Our neighbor Cami put one on Jaxon and he decided it wasn't too bad if Cami and Lily were doing it. He was interested in the ladybugs for about five minutes then it was off to play with his friends that had come. It was a pretty fun activity and I'm glad we got to go!

St. George Pictures

Well, I've finally gotten around to downloading the pictures from our St. George trip a couple of weeks ago. We had so much fun while we were there, I don't think the kids ever got bored!

Jaxon and Brynn swinging at a very fun park a few minutes from my parents' house. I wish Daybreak would do something like this! This was Brynn's first time swinging and she absolutely loved it!

Jaxon climbed this rock wall thing all by himself, well maybe Grandpa helped a little bit, but he did really well!

About 10 minutes from my parents house there is a little lake with all of this really fine red sand so we took the kids to play in the sand an they loved it! I didn't think Brynn would like it much, but she had so much fun. It was nice because it wasn't like the sand on the beach that sticks to you and you can never get it off, if just comes right off. We had a lot of fun here!


This is a pictures of Jaxon at the pool using his cool water soaker things. He had so much fun swimming and did a great job. Brynn liked swimming too, but I didn't have any good pictures of her at the pool.

Thanks Mom and Dad for the fun time! We love coming to visit you! I'm sure we'll be back soon!
