Memorial weekend

We had a nice relaxing weekend at Grandma and Grandpa Bradley's house. We love to go to Rigby to visit them and they have an awesome yard next to the river with plenty to do. Here are some highlights of our trip.

We spent a day in Jackson Hole where Grandma Jami bought Jack a cute hoodie. It was pretty rainy and cold, but we had a fun time eating and shopping for the day anyway!

Jack loved to ride on the 4-wheeler while Bob and Cort were hauling wood from their yard to the wood pile.

Grandpa Bob kept Jack fully dressed in his ninja scarf around his head. With his Buzz PJ's he is "to infinity and beyond!"


Jack kept us all busy following him around all weekend. There was so much to see and do. He especially loved picking all the dandelions, and playing in the rock pile.

IT'S A BOY!!!

We had an ultrasound yesterday and found out that we are expecting another boy! We are so excited, and now we will have a header and a healer for roping! It is exciting to find out you are pregnant, but it becomes real when you find out what you are having. I am feeling great- in fact I sometimes I forget I am pregnant until I try to put on my pants. I might be breaking out the maternity clothes pretty soon. Jack is going to be such a good big brother and we are counting down the days!

Jones Family Reunion

This weekend we had our Jones family reunion in Boise. We had such a blast seeing everyone. Ryker and Staci live in Boise so we don't get to see them very much. We rode horses, the boys roped, sang on the playstation, had a spongebob picnic, and just lounged around and hung out. Jack loved playing with his cousins, Kai'le and Brodee. We are glad that everyone was able to be there and had so much fun being with family.

Jack 4-wheelin'

I couldn't ever get this video to upload, but this is Jack riding his 4 wheeler he got from his birthday. He still hasn't learned how to steer!

Disneyland

We went to Las Vegas and Disneyland last weekend for Chelsie's birthday. She didn't know we were coming so we surprised her. We had such a blast with everyone at the beach, in Vegas, and of course at Disney and California Adventures.

Backyard Fun

One of our favorite things to do in the spring/summer is to hang out in my parents backyard. It has a lot of trees, grass, and a fun hill. This is our first time it was warm enough to be in the backyard. Jack loved to pick the flowers growing on the hill.

It was so funny watching Jack trying to figure out how to get down the hill without falling. He figured out to get down like he crawls down stairs. He turned around and scooted backwards down the hill.

Pa and Jack crawling in a cardboard box. How easy it is to entertain a one year old.

Jack got a battery operated 4-wheeler from Granny and Pa for his birthday. He loves to cruise around on it. He figured out really quick how to push the button to make it go, but hasn't figured out steering yet.

Living Quarters

Cort installed this living quarter in a horse trailer in our backyard. It is a lot of work, I try to help but pretty much he just trusts me to putty the nail holes and clean when he finishes. This is a trailer that he just finished.


Daddy's little helper

The finished product you can't see it in the picture, but it also has a shower, cupboards, and bed.

Kindergartners...

Teaching kindergarten I think I have a new story every day. I need to do better at writing them down because someday I am going to make a book of the funny things they say and retire rich! So here are my two favorite of the year.

A few weeks ago a little boy and girl were arguing and they didn't know I was listening.

Girl: You better be nicer to me or I'm going to tell Jesus.

Boy: You can't tell Jesus.

Girl: Oh yes I can in my prayers tonight.

Boy: Well I don't even care about Jesus.

Girl: K then I will tell Santa Clause.

This got the whole group in on the whole conversation and the boy was really concerned she was going to tell Santa!

The next funny story just happened today and being pregnant and not feeling great about my appearance, I still don't know how to take this from a 5 year old. I haven't told my class that I am pregnant yet because they don't understand why I don't have a big belly so I thought I would wait a few more weeks but...
I noticed a little girl that had really rosy cheeks and a rash all over her body. I know about the disease called fifths disease and these are all the symptoms. It is also a really dangerous disease for pregnant people. So I called her mom to see if she knew what was wrong with her and it was indeed fifths disease. I told her I was pregnant and it is a dangerous disease for pregnant people. Turns out it is only contagious before the rash begins so she came back to school today. Apparently her mom told her that I was pregnant and the little girl decided she would whisper the news in everyones ear when they got to school today. I finally figured out what she was telling everyone and began to listen to what they were saying. She told one boy whose response was "Oh, so that is why she is getting fat!"

First ultrasound

I got my first ultrasound this week. I am due on November 4th. It is going to be a long summer!

12 months doctor visit

Jack went to his 12 month old doctor visit and is doing very well. He weighs in a 22 pounds and is 30 inches.
He didn't like getting shots though!

But he did like the sucker he got when he was done.

Jack's first birthday

Jack was so spoiled for his first birthday. He had two birthday parties, which means two cakes! Yes, he got to dig in two times and have a sugar high two nights. He loved every minute of all the attention and loved all his presents too.
I can't even believe that my baby is already one year old. It makes me so sad to think how fast the time has flown by. He is getting such a fun personality and is such a blessing to his mom and dad. We love you Jack and are glad you had a good first birthday!

Easter fun

We had such a fun Easter this year with Jack. It seems like holidays are so much more fun with a kid.
Jack loves to sit in baskets and loved all his easter presents.

Jack got his own little camel back for easter from Granny and Pa to go hiking with

Funny Jack

Here are some pictures of some funny things Jack has been doing lately. He thinks he knows how to feed himself already and will always grab for the spoon.

He has turned into quite a little monkey lately. He loves to climb on anything and sit in baskets or boxes.

Salon Shanae

We are so happy that we have a hair dresser in our family. Shannon cut all our hair and gave Jack his second buzz. We are glad that Shannon is home and are thankful for all she does for us!

Jack in the box

We went to Tremonton to help Coby and Steph move into their house on Saturday. We had to put "Jack in the box" to contain him while we cleaned. He loved it in there! He looked around, ate crackers, and shared crackers with Lewis, their dog. Later Grandpa Rod came and brought Jack a new toy to play with. Have you ever seen a happier kid playing with his new toy? We are so excited that Coby and Steph are moving closer and are happy that we will be able to see them more now.
