Happy Father's Day!

I figured now would be a good time to catch up.

I am so grateful for the boys in my life.  My Dad has been there when I really needed his help, and I know that my husband will be there for our children.  He is just so great with Nixon and we are looking forward to our next little one.

First off, here are a few pictures of my favorite boys in my life!

These are from today, Nixon wanted their ties to match, he was very excited about it!





We went to an airplane pancake breakfast yesterday, and the boys loved it!









Last Sunday we went on a nice bike ride, and Nixon wanted to throw rocks in the water, so we stopped and played a little.




Jeff got another motor bike, he LOVES them! Nixon really loves the little mini rides that his Dad takes him on, and gets really sad when he gets left behind.



We saw this sweet little Motorcycle on deal, and we could not pass it up! Nixon totally loves it!



I got Nixon this sweet Canada shirt last time we went to Canada, I love it! This is what face he does when you ask him to smile!


These are from a walk on a different Sunday.



 These are from the last time we went to Canada... or the time before that... anyways, I just thought they were cute!



Thought I would post this too... this was me 29 weeks, 3 days. I am now currently 32 weeks tomorrow, so its a few weeks ago, and I NEED to take a cute one, but this is all I've got right now.



Fun in the SUN!









Recent Projects!

Here are a few things I have been up to recently... baby blankets and such!

Catch up time... again!

Since I have only blogged once this year, I figured I would just play some catch up with some pictures! That is what people really wanna see anyway! Right?! I love that people can blog every week and have an exciting life... but with working and school and ALWAYS being sick, my life is anything but exciting to me!

Except the fact that I am pregnant with a GIRL, that makes me smile every time I can feel her moving, and remember I am pregnant haha! I am just SO SUPER excited to have a girl!!! wahoo!!!

Anyways, lets start off with January, Nixon's second birthday! Nixon was sick a little for his birthday, I was glad my parents were here so that I did not have to take off work, but it just sucked that he was sick on his own birthday! He didn't even touch his cup cake! Here are a few from his little party... We have all the neighbor kids over, and their parents of course!

Opening up a present from G&G Kenly!




Then in February we went down to Boise for Jeff's Green card meeting! We went to an aquarium and got to pet sharks and sting rays, it was pretty cool!




We stayed in a hotel, with a swimming pool. That was a must have since Nixon never gets to go swimming. Rexburg doesn't have a pool, how lame is that?!



We also hit up the Zoo, here are my favorite pictures from that adventure!



Nixon got his head stuck in here haha!



This one is my favorite, he is hugging a penguin!


We checked out Cabella's, Nixon's face is just too cute so I have to post this picture!


We happened to drive down to Boise on Valentines day.  Here is Nixon in his Valentines Shirt!


By the way, a week or two later, Jeff got his green card in the mail!!


So we went out to celebrate at Olive Garden!!! Which I recently learned is just like Johnny Carino's, but Johnny Carino's is MUCH better! :)
This is Nixon playing under the bench.... sometimes he has too much energy!


This is Nixon trying on one of our Kartchner Homes hats!


Another random event... Rigby (near Rexburg) has a "skating rink" it sucked, but we did go and try it out! Here area few pics from that!

Nixon was not at all excited about skating.. in fact he wouldn't even let me put the skates on him. Good thing we got a thing for free rentals!


This is Jeff being silly. I am so GLAD I married someone who can make anything fun!


In March we had Jeff's Birthday. I blew up many garbage bags full of balloons to fill up his car.... I think I have 7 bags full.. well I wanted his car to be packed.. but it wasn't! I was a little sad, but he liked it anyway! Oh yea.. we got a new Corolla! :)


I got him an ice cream cake because those are his favorite! Also, my brother Brock came up and surprised us! Jeff and Brock had a lot of fun rock climbing and their attempt to go skiing...


My sister came to visit!
We went out shopping and I found this treasure!!! It is a monkey shirt, his mouth has a flap to open and close! It is awesome!! I used to have a hippo sweater like this!


This is a sweet shoe my sister tried on... she thought it was hilarious!


I was jealous how good she looks in hats!


Here are a few more randoms! 


We have been working hard and getting better at Nixon brushing his teeth!


Nixon with his good friend Cora! This really does not look like a safe place at all where we were hanging out. Jeff was helping a good friend in the garage though, he rebuilds engines and car stuff like that....


Nixon LOVES books!


Our friends scooter! It is a blast!!


That's all for now! :)
