REXBURG IDAHO

Yep, it's true! We are moving this very day out of our apartment and we are on our way to Rexburg. Our apartment actually doesn't open up until monday, maybe tuesday, so we are going to take a little detour and go to Lewiston, Where Judd's parents live. So, that is What is going on in our world right now. We are sad to leave our ward here, and our friends. But, we are actually moving closer to some of my favorite people. Julie Bug, for one, and Juston, my favorite brother in law. Emily, who I love and adore so much and the list goes on.

But I better get going because as we speak Judd is cleaning the kitchen cupboards! I never knew he was such a good cleaner! if it means getting our deposite I guess he puts his mind to it. The last time we moved he was working so I had to clean by myself. Thankfully his Julie and Sue helped, I would have died.

Anyway, some day we will have a house, and then we wont have to move so much!

I'll be back to blog soon

Baby Jackson

This is the latest photo of Jackson. He loves to suck on his hands and watch his mobile. He coos and oohs and awws and even says boo and ba and mum. He is starting to gurgle alot too it is so cute. He smiles all the time at us and anyone who gives him a funny look or who is funny looking! He has also started to grab his knees or the backside of his legs when we change his diaper. In his car seat, it is slightly reclined for it to be in the safe position and now he trys to pull his head up, he wont rest it on the back of the car seat. He had 14 hours to pracktise this on our drive home from California (we split it up into three days). We love him so much! He is doing so well...doesn't he have a cute profile?

Ham Leg


I just had to show everybody how big jackson's legs are getting. He is a chunck! We weighed him last night and he was 14 1/2 lbs! on the 20th he'll be 3 months too! I don't know if it's normal for him to sleep as much as he does still (5 to 7 hours a day.) But we figured out why he sleeps so much. It's because when he's awake all he does is kick kick kick! His legs are constantly moving. That's not just fat on those legs, it's muscle!

The slide show with the scandelous picture

So this slide show is the first one that I have ever put on and there is one picture in it that doesn't fit. Actually it's of me and Jackson when he was first born in the hospital! I couldn't figure out how to down load the slide show without that picture on it! I tried it twice and both times that picture popped up! So sorry for the scandelous shot of me at the hospital. I just really wanted this slide show on here and I didn't know how to do it any other way!
Okay, that being said. This is a slideshow of Judd me and Jackson at Santa Cruz, California this last weekend. We were on our way home from visiting my parents in Visalia. It was a blast! Jami and Dave and Benji (Jackson's little cousin, they're in the slide show together) live in San Jose so we decided to meet them. Grandma Sue and Grandpa Roger came down too after Grandpa dropped off pigs in Sacramento. They brought Juston and Jenny with them, so it was a beach party! It was so hot outside, but the water was SO cold. We only have one picture of Jackson with his feet in the water and we were lucky to have gotten any because he imidiatly started crying. The water really was cold.
P.S. Jami I love that picture of you in Ben's Stoller, Ha Ha!

Milk Mustache

One day I was feeding Jackson and I fell asleep. When I got up I saw that he had fallen asleep too and he had a huge milk mustache his whole face was covered with milk! HA! I thought it was hilarious.

Jackson's Baby Blessing, March 30, 2008

Okay, Okay, I know, he is adorable. This is his blessing outfit. I loved it becuase it was knitted which I thought was unique. AND it has three little blue bunnies on it with little cotton ball tails. Grandmama first bought him the cutest little tux outfit made out of chinese silk when he was first born. I kept telling her that was way to big! but when we went to try it on him one week before the blessing, we couldn't even snap up the back! what a fat little boy!
This is my sister and her family with Jackson right before church. He looks kind of like a new born with his head flopped over like that, but is sleeping. He was very tired before church, so he must have anticipated what was going to come. We had SO SO much family and friends there. We love everyone for making such a special effort to be there to support Jackson. We even had friends come from our old bishopric where Judd and I met at BYU-Idaho. We had a huge potato bar with lots of toppings. Thank you Grandma Sue for letting us use your house! It was a blast and Judd gave a beautiful blessing.

I had to throw in this picture of him folding his arms!
