I forgot...

My last post was dedicated to February....where I left out a few other fun and exciting things!

Tyler celebrated his 24th birthday! WHOA! He is getting old! We didnt do much, but we did get a babysitter and go out to dinner! It was fabulous to not have Jax screaming and throwing food everywhere! Tyler didn't get a single present from me on his actual birthday becuase....he got a new snow machine a week before! He was so excited and only got to ride it one time before it broke down :( Bummer....he is so bummed out. Now its gonna cost a bunch to fix it and he is done for the season....just our luck!


Also, it was Valentines Day! This year, rather than fluffy lovey dovey presents, we got a puppy! YAY! As most of you know, I love Shih Tzu's! My parents and I got one when I was a Junior, then they got her another one for a friend when I left to college so she wasn't lonely....and I absolutly love them to death! My mom heard of a family in Lyman selling 6 of them and I had to see them! By the time I got there there was only 1 girl left, and I wanted a girl! She was adorable! A few days later I was trying to talk Ty into the idea of getting her and took him to see her. Her hair had bursted and at that point she was really really cute! After seeing her, he melted pretty fast to her charm and decided we could get her! YAY! We had to leaver her for 2 weeks, and she was ready to go the weekend of Valentines week! She is a great puppy! She doesn't cry hardly at all at night, only when she has to go potty, and I can count on 1 hand the accidents she has had in a whole week! This is my sweet Trixie!

January 2011

January....well what to say about January. First of all Uncle Ben FINALLY got home from his mission! Jax and I headed home for the week so that we could go to the airport with the family. It was so fun! Jax and Uncle Ben had never met before so it was pretty special! He was not real sure of him at first, but slowly warmed up!



The same weekend Ben came home, Tyler had the opportunity to baptize his little brother Nick. During the baptism, Jax was quite jealous that Daddy was "baff"ing with Uncle Nick. He even tried to climb over the barrier and get in....where I stopped him and picked him up....and where we had a complete and utter melt down and had to leave the room, missing the whole thing! Darn 18mos olds!


And these pictures of my sweet little guy! He is so full of energy these days! WHEW! He loves to "cheeeeese" for the camera or phone anytime he sees one, and this 1st pic is the result of that! Such a nerd! Also note his adorable Valentines outfit from Aunt Amy. What a stud right?!?!

December 2010

I am so behind on blogging! So here I go on some major catch-up....I decided the best way to do this was to just go through the months!

December:
Jax played in the snow lots at Grandma and Papas, and helped Daddy plow the snow on the 4-wheeler. He loved the snow! He then got to play even more with Uncle Nick in the snow!

On the eve of Christmas Eve, Jax got to participate in Grandma's Annual Sleepover, which I personally feel should be called Aunt Cami's sleepover considering she ships them all downstairs with me and doesn't hear a peep all night from them. And, I assure you there are giggles and whispers and "potty" breaks ALL NIGHT! We usually watch movies, then "sleep", then in the morning do a craft. Oh the craft....where to begin....its a big pain in the butt! We always choose something that requires paint and hot glue, and that combo along with 10 children under the age of 14 is a disaster area! All in all, we survived yet another Grandma's Sleepover this year!

We had a great Christmas! Jaxson got spoiled, as usual, and loved opening all the presents! Santa visited him and brought him lots, as well as his Grandparents!



 Grandma's slumber party!





 Yes, that's right....a real BUZZ LIGHTYEAR!


 He loved all the boxes more than any of his toys! Go figure :)
