Faces

Jamie has learned to pull faces. I promise my son is NOT always running around naked. It just so happens that Jamie had just woken up and his diapered had leaked. Instead of putting him in clothes just to get dirty while eating I decided to wait. Then he started pulling faces and I couldn't resist taking some pictures.

This is one I see a lot.

He and Daddy love pudding.

I don't know what happened to his sock.

Caught ya!

Love you guys,

Have a Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

YAY!!!

Jamie, my awesome, wonderful little boy, is the best.
I have not been able to find my camera since Halloween. Since my wallet was stolen, I figured my camera went with it. Well, my wallet found its way home thanks to some Good Samaritans, but not my camera. I had given up looking for it. But thanks to my wonderful baby boy, my son, the apple of my eye - I have my camera once again. It was not stolen or lost. It was just folded up inside the stroller. Jamie was playing with the stroller and out it came. Thank you my Baby.

This year for Halloween Tina and I got our families together and we went trick or treating at both malls and to our Trunk or Treat. Jason and I were construction workers. Jamie was a clown. He had fun going around to everybody. We'll have to do it again next year.

Jason has finally been allowed to come home, YAY! He will be working in our area again for a few weeks. We couldn't be more excited.

We were a little bored tonight, need I say more. This is what happens when we have a Daddy at home.

Here we have our little fort.

Jamie giving our fort a thumbs-up.

Then Daddy got a bit creative . . . and a little festive.

OREM!!!

We had a blast in Orem this past week. Unfortunately, the camera came out late. We the Cousin-get-together Saturday night at Chris and Bri's place. We played games, had burgers, decorated cookies, and played more games. It was so much fun, thanks guys.

We volunteered to bring the frosting and sprinkles. Grandma Chipman let us use her sprinkles. Jamie being the little tyke he is found them right away. While waiting for our burgers to be ready, he dumped the entire bottle, all four sections. We could only groan, sigh, and clean it up. Jamie sitting and playing in his mess. He was quite proud of himself.

Dustin and Jamie, notice the sprinkles lid in his hand.

Jamie ate his fill of cookies and spread frosting everywhere.

We got home early afternoon today. Instead of putting things away as I brought it in, I decided to just get it all in before the rain started.

This is what it looked like. Yes, Jamie had to crawl over it all to get through. You don't realize how much stuff you take with you, until you have to unload it all.

You can see the wheels turning in his head as he's contemplating getting over it all.

We had an awesome week. It was good to be with Jason and everyone, but it feels so good to be home. Jamie got out of that car and was off to the only water puddle area in the lot, laughing all the way. After a potty break, and eight trips to the car, we were finally done. I close up the car, close the gate, jump over our pile of stuff and see this:

Oh Boy. As I am cleaning this up and unpacking, Jamie heads upstairs. Not five minutes later, I head up myself. My closet is open, the painting equipment is all over the floor, with the roller at the top of the stairs, he's been in his room, his toys are back in the bathtub, etc, etc, etc. Oh it's so good to be home.

Park

After the farm, we went off to the park so the kids could let out some energy. Jamie has never gone done the slide without someone with him. This time, however, he did it all by himself. Although it did freak this Mom and everyone else out.

After he slid down, his hair was full of electricity- stickin' straight out. So cute. This is one of April's pictures, she did an awesome job, thanks.

Farm

Tina's friend, April, was in town last week. We had her take some pictures for us and of course, they were AWESOME! We went out to the Church Farm and had a blast. These are not April's, they are mine. But they are still cute.The three babies started out happy in the wagon, but it didn't last long.

Jamie loved his balloon!

And then it popped, it was the silence before the storm. We all thought it freaked him out and were waiting for the cry. But not my little man, instead he belts out his laughter. Funny little man.

Rain, rain, rain

This past week, we've gotten more rain than I have ever seen. Crazy, but I've loved it! HATED the thunder and lightening, they just freak me out and drive me to insanity.

I have LOVED the rain. Jamie couldn't get enough of it.

He didn't know what to think about all the lightning and thunder either.

After a bit, we moved to the back door.

He loved the runoff from the roof.

But it didn't take him long to get farther out.

Look, what I did!

Watching the rain continue, all snug and warm.
