Another Truck Sold


I don't think I've ever mensioned how we earn a living. Well, Judd buys older trucks, usually one's that have a broken engine or tranny, so he gets them for cheap because they basically don't run. Then he rebuilds the tranny or we buy the engine and we swap out the bad for the good. Then we sell it. I say "we" because before I had the baby I used to help him. I get to help him sell it now. Well today we sold a truck it was a 1984 chevy a very hot item here in Idaho.

mmm-mm good

Jackson has become pretty interested in what things feel like in his mouth. Yesterday he was eyeing this braclet that was on my wrist so I gave it to him and it went right in his mouth. He has learned to control his hands pretty well when they are right in front of him. He doesn't reach out and grab anything yet though. Even if I put it right in front of him he doesn't take it unless I put it in his hand.

My favorite thing he does right now is that he always folds his hands, it's so cute. Sometimes when he's laying on the bed he just stares at them, I know that it's very tipacle for his age, but it is just so cute when HE does it! I LOVE HIM!

Smiles


It's Been A long Time Comming But We Finally Got Jackson To Smile On Camera. He's Been Smiling For a While Now But As Soon As We Put The Camera Up To His Face He Just Stared At it Blankley. Well He Still Does That So We Had To Snap These Fast! He is Very Curious, His New Thing Right Now Are Blowing Rasberries! HA! We Love Our Boy!

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!
