PLAYING AROUND!!!!

I bought  a new camera a while ago and really need to start using it more. I really want to be good a taking pictures. I love doing but some times I don't have the patients for it. Specially of my family.. My little girl is 2 and at the stage of not taking naps and not listening.

Here are a few I did today with my Patients wearing thin thinner and thinner...

I just love pictures of kids feet not sure why but I do.

she looks cute and innocent but you should have seen her ealier.

Im really proud of these ones they do bring out her eyes and hair

here is my fun loving little blue eyed red hair girl

I cant believe she is 2. Jaxie turned 2 back in February. I really do have fun with her. She has a really cute personality. She will chat her ears off. she is also trying out the potty training. Im not pushing her yet I figure when she is ready she is ready. She stills loves her movies, and her puppy. Jaxie loves it when I ask her to let him out side cause not only does he go she tries to sneak out also. Cant wait till the yard is done so she can play in grass and not dirty...

2013 Easter

This year we went to a bull sale then to the dinosaur quarry in Jensen. It was quite fun other than trying to get a 2 year old to hold still at the bull sale.

Here are a few pictures that I took. Pretty proud of myself.

Once I get some more edited ill put them up.. thanks for looking

I really need to be better at this. I hope I can be better with pics and stories.

Talking about stories. We got  an Ipad when we went on the cruise for Jaxie. Well she has really gotten good with it. Well we love to facetime her grandparents. We send her to bed with it so she will fall asleep watching a movie. I know great parenting here. Anyways the other night or morning she called my parents at 800 am. I woke up and was going to check on her. I hear her giggle then 2 adults giggling. Im wondering what is she watching open the door and there were my parents talking with Jaxie... It was pretty funny. I was talking with mom and dad about this. I guess Jaxie kept telling them to shh shh shh like she knew she was not suppose to be calling on it. haha. I think its pretty funny till this morning when mom text me that she tried to call them again at 3am yes 3am. So no ipad to sleep any more. Sorry mom and dad.

caught up time..

okay ill have to play caught up when I can actually get my pictures on my new computer. For some reason they are not loading.

 

Anyways we went hunting this year up to Yellowstone. We stopped to have a picnic and we took some pictures.  Here a few that I edited.

 

Jaxie 21 months

I know I'm probably the worst blogger out there. But hey I'm a  working mom... Yes I said it "WORKING MOM."

Jaxie has grown up so much lately. She is talking so good and wont stop. She is just my little chatter box.

Im always asking her to help me do things. So when she wants to help me with things she askes "help me, help me" Its so cute.

This morning I was at my moms dropping Jax off for the day. I stayed and ate breakfast with them and she looks around and goes. "gumpa, gumpa?" Looking for her grandpa she sure does love her grandparents. And of course gumpa was at work already.

She love to watch movies on our Ipad. She is starting to understand more, and more emotions. Every once and awhile Ill hear her laugh or say oh sad and get teary eyed. Wayne says she is so my child when it comes to emotions since I'm a basket case when it comes to them.

We have been introducing her to the potty world. Not yet trying to potty train but get her use to the toilet. I have toilet seat that has a toddler seat also and when its bath time. We go potty usually she does go potty but some times not. But when she does its a huge party in the bathroom we yell and high five and YAY YOU WENT POTTY. She thinks its the best thing in the world. Now if it would be just that easy...

We got our selves a dog  puppy.  Big mistake but of course we (jaxie) fell in love with him. His name is Thor and he is a stick of energy. He is a minature Schnauzer. He really is fun its just hard when he wont potty train either. So he is our outside dog till night time. Im hoping he will grow out of it. Because Jaxie and Thor just love each other. When they are playing all I hear is laughing from both. I love to hear Jaxie laugh.. She is always laughing. What can I say I have a happy girl.. Which im so happy for.

We did Haloween this year and she did have fun to a point. It was getting late and she was getting hungry. When she gets hungry watch out. The bear in Jaxie comes out. She dressed up as a witch.I do have pictures but we all know how good Im at posting pictures on here. I will try to get them this weekend.

Jaxie also has almost all of her teeth. She is working on her canines right now and they have been the worse. She is in so much pain that when she does cry she humms, with her mouth shut. Its so sad. I do give her those teething tables and they seem to be the best for her.

LONG TIME NO WRITE

Sorry its been awhile. Im really not good at this but I'll try, and it doesn't help that my computer has been down.

We have been doing so much that last few months.

1- I know I have already said this on the last post. But we are new HOME OWNERS SO SO HAPPY!!

2-We went on a CRUISE. It was a blast. I will have to post pictures later. We went to Jamica, Grand Cayman, and Cozumel.

Jamica,

It was fun we just shopped and played at the beach. We went on a hop on and hop off shuttle they took us to the nice shops which means "NO HARRASSMENT" from the sales people you actualy had to go into the stores and see what they sold. We really didnt know what they meant till we went to the shops by the beach. Holy cow do they harrass you. More the men then the women. I was looking for a pearl ring. Im a mom now and thought it would be nice to have one. I know lame but I did. We went into this shop and the salesman showed me it and it was 275 we got him down to 50 but we didn't buy it. We thought really that cheap no way is that real so we bypassed it. As we were leaving we seen this little Toyota truck drive by with 2 men in the back with some big guns.. SCARY!!! It scared me bad enough I just about left everyone behind to get to the beach. I know I'm safe with my husband but come on even he can't be bullet proof.. The people on the streets would harrass the men by "come on mon you want a smoke", "I'm your waitor on the boat its safe with me come on mon" It was making the men so mad.. When we finally made it to the beach you have to pay to get to it and pay for the chairs, umbrellas, plus tip the boy who helps you set up the chairs. Then in there people would come by and ask to braid your hair or bracelets.. Wayne Jaxie and I were swimming in the ocean and this guy comes up to us and ties this bracelet on my and waynes wrists and fist pumps us whiles saying "peace, love, unity, respect" that is what they say to everyone. This guys name was "smokey" because he smokes a lot of weed!! ha ha I just laughed but then he goes this is how I pay for my childrens school by making these bracelets.. (SUCKER) Man did he get us. We learned after that... Well we were getting ready to go back on the beach and looked down and there were 2 sting rays swimming with us. Let me tell you what that actually scared me, I wanted to scream and run but didn't want to make that big of a deal so I acted like a big girl and not the scared little girl that I am.. OH YEAH THEY DRIVE ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE ROAD AND ARE CRAZY!!!!

Grand Cayman,

Here it was nice, they also drive on the wrong side of the road, but not as crazy!! We went scuba diving here. Well I should say Wayne and Gary went scuba diving. I tried and couldn't do it. I sure wish I could. I just couldn't get use to breathing under water. I'm going to get to where I can. Wayne loves to scuba and I want to do it with him. While I was sitting on the pier waiting for him and Gary (waynes dad) I was looking down into the water and seen tons of sardines and a few huge huge I mean huge fish that were as big as I am. HUGE!!! I think I probably would have freaked out if I seen fish that big. Wayne took some pictures of it under the water so when we develop them Ill put some one here. This was the only place I got sunburned. Jaxie got to spend the day shopping with her Grandma Honey, and aunts and cousins. I think she had a great time because she was tuckered out that night.

Cozumel,

I loved this place I think the most. We got off the ship and on the pier they have some shopping right off. It was funny because it was Tequila, they were giving free shots away I think people were drunk before they left that shopping strip.. It was funny I can't believe how sheltered we are here in Utah. Here we went parasailing. It was so much fun. Gracee and I went together up in the air. It was so beautiful. We both were a little scared to do it. But we over came our fears and did it. Im so glad we did. I can't believe how blue the water is and how many different kinds of blue. Then Wayne went up Jaxie was on the boat with us. She was like dad dad dad. I go he is up there. Then she realized how close to the water she was,and yeah it took all I that I have to keep her from going over. Jaxie LOVES LOVES LOVES did I say LOVE water. Its scary how fearless she is. She would jump in over or go under anything to get to the water. Gary went (waynes dad) next after Wayne. Well lets just say he lost something up there in the air. He got sick you should of see his face. It was HILLARIOUS!!! When we docked back it started to poor and man did it come down. We had to run to shelter and it took us maybe 5 seconds and we were soaked. It was a warm rain. I really really loved Cozumel. We got to were our ship was and there is a place called Fat Tuesdays YUM YUM YUM!! It was the best taco I have ever eaten. I actually crave that taco. Kolynn said there was one in Utah. Im going to find it and go there again and hopefully soon. I don't do good with cravings.

Well that was just a little about our cruise will place pic soon. I hope.

HOME OWNERS!!!!

YES YOU READ IT RIGHT WE ARE HOMEOWNERS!!!. We actually have been here for about 3 weeks, and so much has happened. I love being a howeowner. Jaxie loves it also she loves that she can go in and out of her own room. She loves to pull out all of her clothes from the dresser.

We have had a mishap. We had to buy new washer and dryer. Sears came and hooked up the washer well that saturday the hose came out of the wall and flooded my hall way some of my room and down in the basement. Wayne was so upset. We cleanned it up. Then realized that we should have taken pictures of the mess. But of course that is the last thing on your mind when you find that mess. It ruinned my hard wood floor. So I called Sears and they are going to turn it into their insurance and will be fixing my hardwood floor. now if we can only get them here.

We are still decorating. Im so not the decorater like my mom and sis and aunt. I wish I had that gene to decorate but I don't. Good thing some of my family does and have friends that will help me. I can't wait to decorate then decorate again. We do have to put in our back yard, that is going to be a chore but fun. We have to put up a retainer wall then sod. We just have soo busy that it hasn't happened yet but needs to soon because Jaxie loves being outside. So the sooner the better.

Well this homeowner needs to get baby J ready for bed.
