St. George Girls Trip

before the baby came we wanted to take a quick trip to St. George before adding another. let me explain the bag of chips, 1st im preggers, 2nd, dill pickle potatoe chips are hard to come by (right Ang) and are sooo good! this is why they are in the center of the picture! we we're haveing lunch before we went hiking around zions national park
without too much detail on the horses, one of the main highlights of heading to zions was the horse back riding. to sum it up, the girls were too small and we're thus longing to take a ride.

the squirls in zion have no fear. alothough the signs say no feeding the animals, people do because they will come right up to you.

this squirl is eating a cracker that he took right of out eva's hand, no fear

done!

while of vacation, sat around, went swimming, and watched movies. for every movie my sister and i picked out, my mom made us watch one of hers. don't get me wrong, i like old movies, but theses were oooold. i always enjoy our trip down.

Then came Easter..

easter came and went, i don't have too amny pictures, nor good ones at that. but lets make a note that it happened

I Finally Made It......Graduation

on april 14, 2011 i finally graduated with my bachlelors in science in dental hygiene! after many break downs, many failed patients, passing all my national board tests, and a 6 month pregnant belly, i finally did it.

just days before, i had a little pep talk with this little man about not coming on this particular weekend, we (i) had made a deal that he would come that next wednesday. but the lord wanted to remind me that i was not the one in charge. i was trying to avoid having eva jane's and his birthday be the same, and i had said this from the beginning of my pregnancy. i thought "hey there are 30 days in june, there is no way he will come on this one day." but i was defenatly set straight! arriving almost 3 1/2 weeks early he arrived on

June 4, 2011,

exactly 3 years later than my other baby.

as much as i wanted to avoid him arrival on this exact date, i'm so happy to say he is here and we are blessed to have his sweet spirit here with us, as a part of our family. he puts a a smile on my face, even in the early morning hours.

this is his very first weigh in of many, as according to my husband, he WILL be a wrestler

fresh out of the oven in my arms, instead of my belly. much easier to breathe!

proud father! this is an understatement, Jo has been waiting for this little man for a long time. as soon as we found out we were having a boy, he wanted a reassurance everytime we had an ultrasound. as soon as he arrived, we were assured all appendages were in tact. in disussion for a name, my husband took the opportunity to give him his name, for this may be his only son. not to mention, he is his spitting image, hair, eyebrows, and all.

his eyes were open right away

take notice of his dimple on his right cheek, daddy all the way.
pre-bath he appeared to have curly hair and black peach fuzz all over his back and shoulders.

post- bath his haired turned stick straight, but the black peach fuzz had remain!

my favorite part.....his hair.
