Found this Old Video of Jack at 4 Months Old

Fun Summer!

My mommy makes fun of me because whenever I sit on the floor I have to have my ankles crossed.

Vegas, Baby, Vegas!!!

Me and Mommy in Vegas at our pimpin' hotel!

We picked up this snake at the Rainforest Cafe and it really likes me, I think it wants to eat me!!!!!

Me all bundled up in my puppy towel late tat night at the pool.

Making a big baby mess of the hotel.

Playing in my Einstien

I LOVE BATH TIME!!! BUT I LOVE MY PEE PEE THE MOSTEST!!!

cute poses and a pool expedition

So I am thinking that my child is OCD. Because EVERY time he is in his jogger he has to have his "stearing wheel". He is NOT happy unless he has this exact wheel. He will not settle for that cute (and available) toy to his right. AND if you try to take it from him he will put up a struggle and if you succeed he will cry until you gibe it back! See his worried eyebrows??? He thinks I'm bending down to take it! TOO FUNNY!!






This is a pic of Jack and his Grampa Val at Murray pool for his cousins b-day party. Jack didn't like it at first, I guess he thought it should be warmer, like the tub.













Again at the pool jsut getting all lotioned up. Don't want to burn that baby white skin....or Jack. Hee Hee. I DO need a tan!














Jack really likes to play at his storage bin in his room. I just put all his random toys in there and he likes to pull them all out.
















Maybe one of the cutest pics of him yet!

More fun pictures of Jack

Baby Jack loves to ride in his bike trailer. He falls asleep every time we take him out in it. We've gone all the way around the lake (even North Shore) and it is so beautiful. They have created beaches in a couple places on the lake's shore that we can't wait to use!

One of Jack's funny faces. He has MANY!! These are his two pearly-whites.

Does it get cuter than a baby bathing?????? I think not!

Mmmmm PRUNES!!

Crazy baby!!!

Jack loves to drink from big cups...and he knows how to do it too. So smart!

Mother's Day

Mother's Day was pretty fun. Joe had to work, NOT fun, and I had to teach Gospel Principles, but all-in-all we had a good day. My mom came to church with Jack and I so she could watch him while I taught. It was fun to have my mom with me on Mother's Day. She's a good little mom. After church Jack and I took a fatty nap and when we woke up we headed over to my mom's to have dinner with my grandparents and Joe showed up at 7. The cake we had was to die for yummy and the day was beautiful!! Any day that I'm a mom is beautiful!

MOAB

This little guy is an awesome traveler. When he wasn't sleeping he was playing or looking out the window. Such a good baby. So, in this picture he looks sleepy..................

and lights out in this one!!!

This was a really fun hike we went on when we first got there called Corona Arch.

The parents... A.K.A. the "olds". Also, that is NOT a Dingo, that is Hailey, their crazy mutt.

Jack held onto Joe like this every hike we took him on. H-ya Daddy! Getter goin'!!

My step-bro, Braden carrying Cohen, and that's his wife Teryl. They also had their dog, Anna but she's not in this pic.

CORONA ARCH........................beautimous!

This hike is called Bill's Canyon and it has LOTS of water for the dogs to swim in. Shhh nobody tell our pugs we went there without them or they'll never speak to us again. Jack slept this entire hike!

Biking Klondike Bluffs with Joe and my Dad. This is a really fun trail with lots of Slick Rock on it so you can get going fast on the downhill and your tires just grip to it like crazy. Sooo much fun.

Daddy Val climbing the heck out of that hill. It doesn't look steep but it is.

Joe and I taking a rest and a picture.



( I couldn't figure out how to get this to the top)

So we went to Moab a couple weeks ago with some family. It was my first trip back since being prego. I don't know if I would even consider the last one fun considering i had morning sickness like crazy and was just getting over pneumonia. This trip was soooo much funner!! We took Jack on two hikes and Joe and I and my Dad did some mountain biking. I haven't biked since i sold my Cannondale Jekyl more than 3 years ago to get carpet for our town home. So, needless to say I was a little rusty and saddle-sore. But this chick can still bike baby! My step-bro and his wife and kid, Cohen, came also. We had great meals and LOTS of great memories. Here are some (a lot) of pic's......................

Easter

First of all Joe got a fabulous, long-over-due-haircut!! Doesn't he look so great! Thanks to his sister Meg!

Squishy got lots of cool stuff from the Easter bunny. Grandpa got him a kid's Nalgene water bottle for hiking in Moab. Thanks Grandpa!!

Me and Squishy....who now is back in love with binkis....but not the big green ones, just regular ones. Too bad, I liked the big ones, but these are cute too. He started liking them just in time for teething and a road trip to Moab!

The old people with the young. Pretty good looking grandparents! That's Jack's cousin Cohen. What cuties!

A family photo op......Jack would not look at the camera this day....what a STINKER!
