Jenna’s drawing

Jenna has become such a good girl while at the gym and I am working out.  There is a play room with a tv and couch and toys but no one is in there watching the kids.  She has gotten used to hanging out in there or sitting on the bench watching me till I get done.  Sometimes she will play games on my phone.  This day she was drawing on the white boards they have there.

I asked her what she was drawing.  She went through each of our family members (Lines with heads on top) and the squiggly lines are the stairs we go down.  I loved it!  Can she just stay this age forever?  Today I was walking in to Costco holding her hand and I said “I love you Jenna” and she replied “I love you to mom.”  The other day I was getting her in the van and she wanted to sit in Alyssa’s booster seat and not her carseat.  Last time she did that she unbuckled without me knowing and when I went around a corner she flew to the other side of the van!  So I was talking to her about that and warning her not to unbuckle.  She held up her fist with her pinky out and said “I pinky promise, Mom.  I pinky promise.”  I couldn’t help but laugh!  It was so cute!

She is a doll and the perfect stage. :) She is a good girl to sit like that....not sure my kids would. :) I couldn't get over how Cameron's haircut changed his look so much. Crazy! Lucky for him he has a Mama who can cut it for him :)

Our New Family Pictures

I have been on the hunt for a really good photographer for a long time here and there.  And I think I found one that did everything I wanted.  First, she comes and looks at the feel of your home.  For us I just sent pictures of our living room where I wanted the pictures placed.  Then she suggests colors to wear and sent pictures back with our room and picture placements she puts on the walls.  And with 5 kids, especially Jenna, you really have to photo shop A LOT!!  Almost every photo with Jenna she had to photo shop.  She did amazing!!  I was so nervous when we went over and viewed our pictures at her house.  As David put it after our photo shoot “She has to be a magician to get anything good out of that!  That was a disaster!”  After looking at our proofs I said, “well, you are a magician!”  And David said after leaving and climbing in our car to go home “That was worth every penny.”  Success! I do have a few faces to change up, little specks to take off, small touch ups before th

How close have you been to a Prophet?

David, and two other guys he works with, were invited to the Jazz game last Friday night. I have come to find out as a construction wife, to get business, you gotta play A LOT ! Here is a short list, not limited to, of what I mean by "play": Golfing (about 3 times a week-depending on the week and in warm weather of course) Snow skiing (about 2 times a week, again this depends on the week and when there's snow) Fancy dinners (this can also be counted as lunch, which happens more than I know I'm sure!) Executive Retreats (this will be happening in February for about 5 days in AZ, which will have all 5 days full of golfing, guaranteed!!) Jazz games (again, when in season) I don't know about you, but I think I'm in the wrong career!! This house wife things just does not include ANY of those benefits!! Anyway, on with the story at the Jazz game... These weren't just ordinary tickets. Where do executives and people in high places sit? Oh yeah,

TRIALS

We have been preparing for over 4 years for this trial. But nothing, no matter how much you knew it could and most likely would happen, can prepare you when your son's doctor tells you now is the time. "Your son needs open heart surgery." August 24th, 2005, Jason was born in Las Vegas, NV. He was perfect and healthy looking in every way. At his 2 week check up the doctor heard a heart murmur and recommended I take him to the cardiologist. I mentioned that I was flying out to WA in a few days and so I'd probably go when I got back, 3 weeks later. The cardiologist doctor called me the next day after visiting with the pediatrician, asking me to go in to have Jason checked out. It was late and he was willing to stay after hours for us to get there. After an ultra sound of his heart (echo) the cardiologist diagnosed Jason with a very small hole in his heart. Nothing that needed to be fixed right away, unless it started causing problems. So Jason started going every 3 month
