Weekend Adventures

Our nephew Josiah recently turned 3!!!! His birthday party theme was construction and so grandpa brought a truck for all the kids to ride at the party!
                                   
Daddy and Jamin on the roller!


Everyone got to wear construction gear too!
 Kyle and I haven't been to the mall in over two years and since Kyle had some gift cards to sears we decided to make a little day trip out of it at the Chapel Hills Mall!
We brought our lunch to the mall and afterwards Jamin got to eat a yummy chocolate cupcake!


We forgot the stroller but I think that Jamin wishes we would forget it more often. He got to ride around in one of these all afternoon!


We went to Motherhood Maternity to try to find some swimwear for me. I was trying to get one in time for Jamin's first swimming lesson but nobody really had any out yet. They have a pad to try on to see how things will fit when you are bigger. Jamin loved touching my 'belly' lol

 We spent over an hour in sears but Kyle used up all the gift cards my mom got him for his birthday! He got everything he wanted plus $10 to go back and shop with!
Here he is playing with the tools


Jamin being silly...I know this is random lol

Ok this is totally gross but Kyle has been craving nachos for a really long time (funny how he has all the cravings and I'm the pregnant one lol).  We made these last week and this looks totally disgusting because we couldn't figure a good way to put the beans on evenly so I got a piping bag and we went to work. 

Ready to go into the oven. They weren't too bad but not a favorite of mine lol
 We have taken many pictures of Jamin on the longboard from the time he was old enough to hold up his head. Anyone remember the bumbo extreme we posted a long time ago??? Well our little man is graduating to riding the longboard by himself.


Daddy taking him on a faster ride!


Here is a video of Jamin on his first solo ride!



Working on the next steps!


A little update: All of us have been doing great! Jamin is speaking new words everyday. His favorites are balloon, ball, mama, dada, papa, hi, ya, and of course his signiture ooooohhhhhhh!!! He is also making animal noises all the time when he see animals. I really want to take him to the zoo when it gets a little warmer. He loves saying dog sounds, monkey sounds, pig sounds, and cow sounds. On another note, yes, I am stick miss sicky. The nausea just doesn't seem to be going away. I will have better days when I don't throw up at all but then I seem to be very sick the next few days. My belly is growing so fast now. We are hoping that I begin to feel better soon but it could still be another 10 weeks if its the same as I was with Jamin. I am super thankful that we have been busy so that I can keep my mind off of everything and that I am not super tired everyday. I am thankful that I can keep up with Jamin and have the energy to take care of myself!

Wonderful little company!

Yesterday I had the honor to watch Nathan. Nathan's parents are Matt and Sonya, friends from our small group at church. We had a blast all afternoon. Both the boys didn't take naps so I thought it was going to be a rough afternoon but I think they got energy from one another. I was nervous for dinner time too but they both did great. Both ate like champs...even ate their vegetables!  I put these two to work right away lol Busy building something great! We went outside for a bit. It was hard to keep these two together in the front so we headed out back! Nathan loved exploring! Showing me a sweet rock that he found! Jamin exploring too! Wondering where he should go next. There are so many things to see in our backyard  The boys looking at the rocks and weeds lol Nathan showing Jamin the treasure (weed) that he found! We played on the swings for a while too. One would be in this swing while I held the other in the other swing! (Sorry my...

4/20-4/24

I couldn't really think of a title for this post so I decided to just states the dates lol. Last week Jamin and I went to Focus on the Family with our friends Sonya and Nathan. I just got done reading Bringing Up Boys which was written by the Founder of Focus on the Family, Dr. James Dobson. Although Focus on the Family is a place I would hear about while growing up, I really didn't know a lot about it. My friend Sonya went to their Institute and so our trip planning began to go visit it!  Group picture after taking the tour  We can never get a great shot of the boys lol These were taken in their really awesome play area! Love this picture! Stroller parking!!! A smile that makes my heart melt everytime! Jamin and Nathan Mommy was way too big for this little boat lol Silly faces  We also went to the zoo with Sonya and Nathan last week. Here are a few pictures! We even go the moose in the picture! Jamin got scared of the big hippo :( ...

Road Trip Part 5

Monday morning rolled around and we decided to make our way from Bozeman down to the West Yellowstone Entrance. The drive was amazingly gorgeous!  Just driving in Harvey!  We made it to West Yellowstone but were turned away from two different RV parks because of the amount of kids we had with us. This was the first time I have ever felt looked down upon and discriminated against. I literally had one man ripped a piece of paper out of my hands because he didn't even want to consider letting that many people stay in his park. I explained to him that they are all young and well behaved kids but apparently he has had way too many bad experiences with kids. We didn't let it get us down though. We finally found one that didn't have any concerns letting 4 adults come in with 5 kiddos. The place was actually brand new and the closest RV park to the west Yellowstone entrance so we really lucked out!!! After we got checked in we decided to go into the park ...
