Spring









Spring is still just poking through here and there right now. But we are taking advantage of the nice weather when it does come around. We have been going on walks with friends, having picnins, gardening (Jenna love to throw the dirt), etc. Here are a few pics of our activities lately. For some reason my pictures are not adjusting to vertical, sorry about that.

Catch up!

Wow! I have not blogged in a long time! We were at a friends house and they print their blog every year rather than scrapbooking. I really liked that idea so I have decided to blog more so we can print our blog into books and have it as a photo album/journal. We have been VERY busy! And rew and I are both going to school, Andrew is working at the U of U. I am working at home (I've decided that being a homemaker and a mother is the best job in the world for me anyways. And we both have busy callings and projects around the house we are trying to accomplish. Jenna is super happy, sweet and fun! She brings so much light and happiness to our lives. Between ages 12 and 16 months she has learned how to:
-wave and say hi and bye bye (she could wave before, just does it a lot more now)
-make many different sounds like roar for lion, vroom for cars, etc.
-she knocks on doors when she wants them to open, even the pantry door when she is hungry
-she can say please in sign language
-she still loves dogs, books, balls, cars, babies (both toy and real), and her bear.
-she LOVES crackers
-she is very sweet to babies, she does her best at being soft.
-she makes "ahhh" sounds in a very sweet, high pitched voice
-she likes to shake her head 'no' when we shake our head 'yes'
-she can walk and run and dance
-she LOVES helping unload the dishwasher. I will open the dishwasher and she will come running over. She hands me the silverware and other small dishes and I put them in their cupboards. :)
We are happy and doing well and thouroughly enjoying our little family. :)
