I Have Some Questions....

Why hasn't Jason done a blog post about our arches trip? Why haven't I even seen the pictures yet? (I already know how he's going to answer this)

Why do I realize I like a show after it has been cancelled?

How do you use a public restroom...when you're alone, and holding a baby?

Why do some women get postpartum depression, when they should be celebrating one of the happiest moments in their life?

Why does breastfeeding hurt so bad at first? That's kind of the purpose for those things.

Jesse? (from Big Brother, for those who watch) Is there anyone out there, besides his family that like him? Ugh.

Why do people bug me so bad? Does it have something to do with me, why people bug me so bad?

Mustard, relish, tomatoes, pickles, and the people who like them? (I'm just kidding, don't send hate mail)

Why does Donovan wake up around eight when Jason is watching him, and before seven when I am?

Does anyone want a cat? She just started pooping on the carpet. Why is she doing that?

Why do babies have to teethe? It would be easier for all those involved if they were born with teeth. It would be weird at first, but we'd get used to it.

Why is there never enough time?

Bee's Game

Monday we went to the Bee's game. We went with some people from our softball team and family. It was a lot of fun, and had a pretty good turn out. The Bee's lost, which was sad, but it was way past my bed time and I was a little happy that it was over. Here's some pictures from the evening.

Jason and me need a picture like this everywhere we go.

Jason's Old!

Today is Jason's Birthday! Yeah! Jason has a couple of weeks off of school until the next semester. It's nice actually being able to spend time together, and not have him worrying about getting homework done. He has been working so hard this year at trying to better our situation. I'm so proud of him. He has been juggling work, school, and taking care of the baby when I'm at work very well. I don't think I'd be able to do it. He is a wonderful husband and father. Happy Birthday honey. I love you.

Something I Need to Learn

Well, I need to learn lots of things, but this is what I'm thinking about right now. This was Donovan's outfit today, that Jason picked out. If you can't tell, the shorts are light blue, dark blue, and white. The shirt is a charcoal color. I would not think to put this outfit together. I would probably choose a blue or white shirt. For some reason I can't get out of my head, that clothes need to match perfectly. Jason does this all the time. He'll wear some blue plaid shorts, and put a brown shirt with it. It always works fine, and looks good. I would like to learn how to make clothes that don't match look good somehow. However, I don't think girls can get away with this as well as boys can. Anyway, I know this is random, but I wanted to share.

Here is the durn picture

So, I figured I would just post the picture I was talking about in the previous post. Here it is.

My photo

A photo of mine, taken on Antelope Island, was published in this online guide. You'll have to scroll through the pictures to see mine because I couldn't figure out how to just make this widget thingy show my photo. Anyway, check it out eh?

Artistic Fun

The girls and me have been doing this project for the past couple of days. It's been pretty entertaining. Jason even played with us today. I don't know what it's called, but I'm sure a lot of you have seen it. I did it when I was a kid. I know the beads are called perler beads, and you put it on a grid type thing, and put the iron on them so it melts together.

Olivia's

Ashley's

Mine

Jason's

I made this for Jason. I didn't think about how you turn it around, so it's a backwards "J".

Van Clapping

I taught Van to clap a few days ago. He loved it when I would clap, and he liked to hold on to my hands while I did it and laugh. Sometimes he'll do it if I ask, "can you clap?". Most of the time he'll do it if I say, "Yeah". He'll say "yeah" too now when he does it. It's so cute, I love it.

Van's First Swim

We took Van swimming a couple of weeks ago. He loves it of course. He had big smiles most of the time. He likes to splash in his floaty thing we bought. I've taken him once since then, and he didn't want to get out.

Mom of the Year

A couple of days ago I had a wake up call. Donovan was on my bed, and I had to do something. I saw that he would have to roll over twice to fall off the bed. He was out of my sight for just a few seconds, and that was long enough for him to roll over twice. Jason was down stairs, and he said it was a pretty loud bang. He landed right on his face. He had a red mark on his head for most of the day. His nose took most of the fall. I feel so bad every time I think of it. It was extremely irresponsible of me. My baby is rolling lots now, and now I know he's quicker than I thought. Luckily our bed frame is broken, so the box spring and mattress are sitting on the floor. Uh....I want to cry every time I look at his nose. The first three pictures are of the day it happened, and the last ones are the next day.
