!Under Construction!

Well after four long months......I have a break from school. (Less than 2 years left!!!!)
So much has happened and I plan to update over the next few weeks. Therefore this blog is currently under construction......

Our Beautiful Babies!

So, they may have not won the local or Regis and Kelly Live contest BUT they are the most beautiful babies!!! =)

Life (Wreck, Thanksgiving in Cali, Family Pics, Christmas...Etc)

Well this is going to be a mega blog. I am going to try and put everything in a nut shell. So, I last posted a blog towards the end of October, and so it begins.........
October 30, 2008: The Wreck (Not my fault)
I was stopped waiting for cars so I could turn and then BAM........................
Yeah, this did not feel to great! The impact pushed me into the other lane and thank goodness the man in the oncoming lane took the barrow pit to miss hitting me in the front! My seat broke when the seat belt caught me and threw me back. And yes everything came flying out of the dashboard. I am still dealing with neck and shoulder pain and of course all the crazy insurance stuff you have to go through. I am just so glad to be alive and that I did not have anyone else in the car with me!

October 31, 2008: Halloween
I never thought that getting two little boys dressed would be so hard! Jake had to work and I obviously was not in the best condition, but they were so cute!! We didn't go trick or treating...Thanksgiving Week: Cali!
We had the opportunity to go to California to spend the holiday with my Dad. It had been 18 years since we had spent a holiday with him so it was so great to be able to spend a holiday with him! Well the problem is we don't have hardly any pictures. We left our carry-on with all of our electronics on the couch at home!! Since it was a holiday week, it was going to cost $250 to ship it! We had so much fun though. It is always great to spend time with my Dad and his family because they live so far away. Oh and the boys just LOVE their "Bompa", Grandma Jill, Jordan, and Skyler!

Family Pics:
My awesome sister in-law took some family pictures for us to put on a Christmas card. Sorry I don't have the card to download, but I will put a couple other pics on.


Mid December:
Jake and I both finished a semester of school. Jake now has his Bachelor's in Biology!!!! I survived my first semester of NP classes and got A's :)

Christmas:
Christmas was really fun this year....especially since I lucked out and was put on call and didn't have to work. Slade was so excited to open his presents. He kept saying, "Oh my gosh!!!" Krue tried to open presents a couple times and then fell asleep. :) Krue also got his 1st tooth!




Now:
Whewwwww ....... I really need to get back to doing homework. Hope you enjoyed the story of our family life from the past couple months!

So....I am kind of bad at this!!

Sorry I am such a slacker with the whole blogging world. I honestly should not be doing this right now. I have a 9 page paper that I REALLY need to get done. The boyz are growing like weeds. I think Krue is going to have Slade beat in no time! It took us about 2-3 months but we are almost moved in completely. These pictures are just from my phone so not the greatest quality, but definitely the cutest boys!
Krue is 6 months old now. He smiles all the time! His new thing is blowing raspberries. He is a squirmy little guy and I think he will be crawling really soon. I am excited but scared at the same time....he is going to get into everything! He has been sitting up by himself since Sunday, wow time flies!
Slade is 2 1/2 now. He is sooooo much fun. It doesn't matter what time of day or where we are, he always has everyones attention and is a little show off. He loves that his Travis, Mandy, and Mason are back home. He is trying to play with Krue and is always "helping" us with him. He learned how to hold his breath when he goes under water in the hottub the other day with Uncle Tyson. Let's just say in the last 4 days I've heard, "I swimming?" about a billion times. He is still eating like a champ, but we are still working on the potty training. I am really in no big rush. He just isn't quite ready, he is really good at "hiding" if you know what I mean!!! I am always so amazed at how fast his vocabulary grows and how much he understands. We are SO blessed to have two wonderful boys.

Slade Man

I just can't even believe how fast Slade is growing and he is so smart! His vocabulary is growing. He said a 4 word sentence the other day perfectly.."Andy, I got you!" We are starting to potty train, but that it really hard since we don't have a "schedule" because of work and all...But the best thing the last few weeks is he is eating, ALOT!!! This has been such a struggle but now he is asking for food!! His favorites right now are any type of fruit, hot dogs, and noodles. Slade also played in the water, with worms, and got dirty camping.

Oh the joy of moving.....

Oh so strong
Let's just say we basically smashed Tyson to get our fridge hooked up, and it still didn't work!
Slade and Trey with their Blankets even though it was HOT!

(Slade is kind of a copy cat right now)

So I have not posted in a long time.....only a few reasons. Since my last post I started my Master's, we moved, I went back to work, etc etc etc. But hey it's been fun!

Moving was awesome (not really). Thank goodness Uncle Rick let us borrow his trailer and we have great family to help!! Now Jake and I are closer to work. It is so nice to sleep in 30 more minutes before work!

Slade

Slade has been fun this week also. We pulled out his swimming pool...he would only stand in it though. It was to "brrr". We also went up to Rexburg and drove past the temple....but of course Slade has to add some humor and call it a "pemple" which sounds a lot like pimple! Everyday he comes up with new words and it is so exciting because now I ALMOST know what he wants.
