I just can't get enough

Anyone who spends any extended periods of time with me has most likely heard me say "isn't he just so cute". As sad as it is I say it so much that when I say it now my brother will grunt and say "yes I have already agreed with you on that you don't need to keep saying it" but I really can't help myself. I just cant contain my feelings. Well I do think that my little one is the cutest thing on earth so much that our camera is probably running non stop on an average day. Well on this particular day we were teaching Shad to clap and of course I thought it was just so cute I had to record it. Enjoy

New do for Kate


I'm pretty sure that I am addicted to getting my hair done. I don't know what it is but it is one of my favorite things going to get a cut and color. Well this is my latest do and I love it.

Discovering food

Today Shad enjoyed a day with mom and dad. We all enjoyed a meal at Wingers although him mom and dad enjoyed Shad enjoying his meal more than their own. "I just love life with a little ones it just makes life so fun".

Bath Time


Most of the time I give Shad his baths but on this particular day I was busy so Dan bathed him. I found it pretty humorous when Dan says "how the heck do you put this thing on this thing". Yes Dan referred to our son as "thing". When I looked up the towel was there but in no way covering Shad and he was still soaking and that is when I realized what he was talking about.

Will work for food


As most of you know am a stay at home mom and would not have it any other way. Having said that I am looking for ways to earn a little mulla while I stay at home. I hate looking for a work at home job on the internet because most of them are scams or give you the run around so I am asking if anyone has any experience with work at home jobs or has any ideas on how I can earn a little part time money. I must add that Dan is doing a superb job of providing for our family, I just want a way to earn a little spending money.

Pathetic Sick Boy



This is how pathetic Shad was while he was sick. We would put him in his Jumperoo to play and he would just sit there, he didn't even care that his cousin was pushing him around.

And this is my older sister

So Sunday evening we were sitting around playing games and Luke walked into the kitchen without the lights on and walked into this...
my older sister had put dish detergent in the dish washer. I will admit that I have done this too but in my defense I was only 10 years old.
I guess I can see how she made that mistake.

Best Buds



During the day I watch the son of a good friend of mine (Cole) so that she could go back to work, I am so grateful that I am able to stay home with Shad full time. Cole is a few months younger than Shad so it is fun to see where Shad used to be and really enjoy the stage he is at. For now they get along very well but that is mostly because they dont really know that each other exists, but we are hoping that they will become good friends. Anyway the other day they were laying next to each other and Shad decided that he wanted Cole's binky and that he was able to take it, so he did. It was funny because Cole didn't seem to care in the least (which is stranged because his binky is his best friend) and because Shad didn't seem to know what to do with it once he had it, he just wanted to take it because he could, if that is any insight into his personality I think we are in for some tough times.

Dan got a job!!!


A few months ago Dan put in an application for Utah County corrections and after a very extensive evaluation process they came back and said they would love to hire him but they did not have the funding to do so at that time. Well about a week ago Dan received a call in regaurds to an offer of employment with Utah County corrections. Dan will stay in school at SLCC utnil he finishes in July but start working for Utah County in April. Because he is putting himself through the Police Academy he will be able to slide right over to a patrol passition as soon as one opens up. We are so excited for this opportunity eventhough this means we will be living in Utah County for much longer than we had hoped, its a good thing we have a lot of family here because that makes it worth sticking around.
