My DAMN blog is updated! ;) Cortnie








Well, Well... we meet again my outdated blog! I will do a fast update on the last couple of months and then a regular post on whats going on now!!! Deep breath and GO!

March- March 20th was a awesome day! Not cause New Moon came out on DVD or because it was the first day of spring but because it is mine and Jake's wedding anniversary!!! Two years baby!
We dropped Addison off at my moms and headed to check out a car we were looking to buy... We loved it and the condition it was in was perfect! So we purchased our first family car! A 2003 Honda Pilot! I love it! Its roomy and I won't be stressed beyond belief when I drive it in the snow!
Then we headed to Park city to do some shopping and lunch and then went to Salt Lake to go to dinner... It was fun but we had to leave early to get Addison cause she thought it would be convenient to get really sick while we were gone!

April-we had Easter! Addison understood it better this time and thought it would be awesome if she could eat all my cad berry eggs! YEP! Every single one! Sad day :(
Then my little brother Jared left on his mission! That was hard! I cried like a baby! He is going to be an awesome missionary! He is in Brazil and loving it!

May- We decided we needed a little vacation! Sooo to Southern Utah it was! We went to my Grandparent's house in New Harmony (right across Kolob canyons) and relaxed all weekend!
It was a blast. My sister Jessica and her family came and so did my little sister Katie and cousin Mckayla... the little girls helped babysit while we went into St George for dinner and shopping!
It was so fun!
My brother Randy came to visit! We don't get to see him very often so it was nice to see him and a lot of fun! We went bowling and had a BBQ!

Now JUNE!!! Yay! June is the best! Its the start of summer and swimming!
We had my little sisters birthday (happy birthday Katie!) I made her those cute fabric flower headbands! They are so easy to make!
We have been on a couple different hikes... we love to hike, when its easy for me! ;)
Then it was my sister Sharees birthday (happy birthday). We went to Surf N Swim! Addison loves swimming so she stayed out all day! It was great! Then for fathers day we went to my oldest brothers house and ate great food and played with their adorable kitty! Not a cat person but this little guy won me over!

Well there ya go, now for the update on Addison! She is not a baby anymore! :( she doesn't even have an ounce of baby left in her! As I type she is standing on a kid chair eating cookie crisps!
She walks everywhere, loves to eat everything and wins over the hearts of everyone! She is always so happy and smiley! She loves when people laugh cause she thinks its something she did and will laugh along with you! We took her in for a check up and weighs 24 pounds and is 31 inches tall! She is a chunk!
Some new words she says... kunk-skunk, ar, ar, arf, arf (dog barking?), Addi, MMMma-Grandma, Papa-Grandpa, caca-ooo - cockadoodle, ouch, ahhh (manly grunt), UP.
She loves little animals and wants to pick them up and give kisses!

For our little family, well we are gggggreat! ha ha... We are going to start getting our house ready to sale! A little nervous but it is in the next step to getting where we want to be. Jake is doing great in school! He will be graduating this coming spring! Then its onto his masters... school is never ending for him but I am grateful for all the hard work he puts into it! It will be over sooner than I think (fingers crossed)!
Well enjoy the many, many pictures!

He didn't want to look at me or he would start crying cause he was going to miss me sooo much ;)

She only wanted to fall asleep on daddy's lap
