New Moon Countdown

I can NOT wait for this movie to come out.
This is the official trailer for NEW MOON that came out tonight.
Thought I would share. I don't know who else is looking forward to this but I think November sounds SO far away! Enjoy the clip! I did, it just wasn't enough.

Kids say.....



Jackson and I stopped by the bank today after work. We went ahead and went in because Jackson likes too.

When we were leaving the teller gave him 2 suckers. When we got to the car he asked for help opening them. I said "Eat them one at a time please, one now and one after dinner, ok...." Without missing a beat he says,

"but want to have a party in my mouf!?"

Where the heck did he learn that from? I don't know, but it's pretty dang funny!

What are you wearing?


Ben was showing Jackson a picture of himself today. In the photo he is wearing a pair of Spidey Sunglasses and a police badge. When Ben asked him what was special about the picture Jackson says
"I'n wearing my po-yeece band-aid."

Ha! I love my sweet guy.......

sOn Of A BEE!

Jackson has seriously been cracking me up with the things he says. I'm having to write down all the funny things he's been saying lately.
I try REALLY hard not to say bad words in front of Jackson. Not only because he is three and mimicks EVERYTHING, but how can I possibly teach HIM not to say it if I'm saying it....right?
So tonight as I was cooking dinner, I took the lid off the Spanish Rice and wasn't paying much attention and the steam burned me and I yelled 'Son of a "B"!' Yes, I said "b", as in the letter, not the swear word.
Jackson comes running in from the living room and says "Bee? Where's the bee mommy? Is there a bee in the house?" Ben busts up laughing in the living room, I'm laughing pretty dang hard and poor Jackson is still asking about the "bee".
Maybe you had to be there for it to be funny, but I'm glad that he thought of a "bee" instead of the word it stood for.

Whatcha got there?

This is ONE of the reasons
I love my husband SO much!
He is ALWAYS amazing me
with what he puts together for meals.
Naturally he is a scrappy guy,
he hates to throw anything away......
incase he might need it later.
So when I was sitting here at the computer
and he came in with his sandwiches
I asked....Whatcha got there?
Take a look...Can you guess what it is?

Yep.... Peanut Butter and Jelly with
Cheetos for a crunch!
Even as a Preggo girl... this doesn't really appeal to me, but I still love ya babe.

Contractions? I had forgotten.

The other day Ben picked me up from work for lunch. We were headed out and all of a sudden I got this sharp pain. Yep, my first REAL contraction!

I couldn't believe how much it hurt. I had totally forgotten what it was like. I swear Ben was hitting the bumps on purpose. Not too many of them since (thank goodness) but it makes me more nervous for the BIG day.

Second to last....

Doesn't this family look like a TON of fun! I totally want to go to one of their family gatherings!

Happy Mother's Day!

I love Mother's Day. Not because it's "MY" holiday where I get to do whatever I want, or not do anything, or because my sweet husband comes up with a card that makes me cry and kidda odd ball quirky presents no matter how little money we might have. He always finds a way. (Thanks for my gifts honey...) but because I get to hear my sweet Jackson say "happy Mudder's day Mom, I yuv you." Isn't it the sweetest thing to hear from your kids?

With a second one only 10 weeks away....I'm getting more scared, not from having to kids or from the horror stories of childbirth but because I'm wondering "how can i possibly love 2 children the same, How can i have enough love (and time) for both of them." "Is Jackson going to know that I still love him so much? will Dylan?"

I can't wait to see how our little world is going to change with a new baby, and how my heart will expand to accomadate more love. I thank my Heavenly Father everyday for letting me be the mommy to some of his most valiant sprits coming forth in these last days.

Here is a mother's day card from jackson for all you mommies out there. Hope your day was as special as mine.

Trent the Senior

Remember the post a few posts ago about the
BIG family?
This is one of the members....Trent.
Isn't he SO cute!?
(But not cute-r then Misty's family---Right M?)
He is very natural in front of the camera,
he never overthought the shots at all.
Sorry Trent's mom for taking so long....
I know you were anxious to grad invites out!

Teri and the kids

This family was really fun. The girls loved to posed and made my job easy. Thanks for the great session!




















jAcKsOn AnD tHe ToAd

This poor little toad was found in front of our house by Jackson and our neighbor girl. They had so much fun looking at it. (because I wouldn't let them touch it for fear of warts) We aren't exactly sure where he came from since we don't have any ponds or anything near by.....I guess we just got lucky in the joys of spring.
