Kenady can roll

This last Thursday, April 5th Kenady purposely rolled over. Now she won't stop it is so funny! She is such a house, it makes it easy. When she throws her feet to one side it propels her onto her side. Then she gracefully rolls her face into the ground and throws out her arms. This is a picture of her just after she has thrown out her arms.

Conference Weekend

Cord and Sydney had a love hate relationship! She loved playing with him and he was the biggest tease. One morning we were up and she wanted something from the kitchen (the boys were still sleeping). I told her to go and get it and she said Uncle Cord gets me, no mom no. Uncle Cord gets me! She was sad to see them leave.

When we were at our apartment we often played a video game that Dallas gave me for Christmas. One of the many was a racing game. Cord and Ty kicked our trash but it was fun trying!
I loved them being here. I was able to cook without Sydney at my feet, and clean without Kenady at my hip (not that I got a lot done). We can't wait to be closer.


Dad, and the boys took Sydney so I could go with Dallas and see him at his best. He has learned how to make orthodics and was making me a pair. That is going to be his little side business when we get all set up! If anyone needs some, he is great!

This was at the Joseph Smith building. The movie was awesome!




Tyson could always get Kenady to smile. She loved all the attention. I was talking to my mom and she asked is Kenady was good, and I said yes most of the time. She said, "well dad said Kenady was a really good baby, Cord said she cried all the time so I just wanted your input." Hah! All in the eyes of the beholder right!

We were so excited to have family come and visit us. Especially over conference weekend! We loved every minute of it, not sure if they did because kids got sick and we spent a lot of time at our house, but it is always nice having family around.

I had tickets to the Saturday afternoon session so I went with Dad, Cord and Ty. We were really excited when we got there because we were able to get really good seats, we couldnt believe it! Lo and behold we shortly thereafter found out that the conference center was the overflow. They were dedicating the tabernacle! It was still really nice to be there, to see the conference center and to feel the spirit!

Dallas was there at the sessions end with two crying kids in tow. I called him as soon as I got out the conference doors and told him where I was, he said Jaymi can you get over here quick, I dont know what to do with these kids. I said I will walk fast, he said, "run"! Hehee. To have kids for more then 3 hours what a chore (Kenady was hungry).

Ty and Cord still got to go to Priesthood session so they did get to see a session live. I think they really liked that. We went out to eat a few times, we walked temple square, the boys got senior pictures, suits and scriptures and we hung out at our house. I loved it!

Sydney was patiently awaiting Dad, Ty and Cord's arrival. She was really excited. I came out of my room and couldnt find her anywhere. She had gone outside (yikes) to see if they were here yet and she saw that it was snowing! Atleast she had put on her hat and shoes :)!

First hair cut

Kenady had her first hair cut, so she would look spiffy for Dad, Ty and Cord, I got a little carried away. This was a first and probably a last for me!

You should have seen her mullet. Business in the front party in the back! Now she justs looks like a boy :)

All that life gives you!

Due to my deep thoughts...okay so I don't have many if any these days, I just cant help but feel grateful to be where I am, and to be so blessed in my life. I know the Lord has had a hand in all that I do!

A few of my friends just signed up to blog, and as I was reading their posts, I just feel so proud to be involved with so many great people. I just heard a quote saying, "Most people want to do good, most people want to lend a hand, they just are not sure how!"....you wonder how that fits in with my thoughts, well I am surrounded by those kind of people, and honestly just like that quote I think most generally people want to love, give, and help. That is what makes you feel good inside.

As I see different people growing, maturing(okay so I am not that but still), learning, and achieving, just as it is meant to be, I am again so thankful that there is a plan for us. There is a reason we are here, and one of those reasons is to help and bless other people which I see all around me.

Right now we are seeing much heartache and pain, there are a lot of terribly tragedies both natural and man made (what is a better word) but where there is one force there is always the opposite! I just want to say thanks for all the inspiration and great people around me. For the people who continue to live for their dreams like Jay and Camille, for the people who overcome like Kristen, for the people who endure like Ammon, for people who love like Jaime, for people who are kind like Julie, for people who listen like Maryann, for people who are constant/persistent like Shanda and for everyone, all of you, that make up my life and make things balanced, make things better!

April Fool's

My dirty sister played a great April fools joke on us, thanks to my brother Jason. She knew that my Dad and brothers were driving home from conference yesterday and so she called me and asked if I knew where they were. I said probably about half way home and she said, "Well we can not get ahold of them, we need to let them know that Jason is in the hospital with Shanda, they think he had a heart attack!".

Wowzer, I was scared! About a minute later she said April Fools! That dirty rat! I just talked to my brother this morning and he said that she called her in-laws, and told them the same thing and they all had great reactions. She will have to post it on here later! Okay I will write with pictures later on conference!
