Stryder Jaxon

Well it has been a month since our new bundle arrived. We have been busy getting adjusted to having four children. We are so gratful for the oppurtunity to have these four beautiful children in our home. We love them so much!! Stryder was born at 11:35 AM on Wednesday January 12th 2011. He weighed 7lbs. 2oz. and was 19"long. He has light brown hair and light blue eyes. My prediction is that his eyes will be like Daddy and Jayde's, Hazel. My mom stayed with us for the week so Raydin could still attend school. We are both so grateful for her and my dad and all they do for us. All went well and we have all been healthy since. We are so thankful that he is here and are loving every moment we can to snuggle and love on him. Thank you everyone for the well wishes, the gifts and food. We are so blessed with great family, friends, and a wonderful ward family.

Update....

Well, since I am terrible at posting, I don't know if anyone will notice this or read this. Time is pretty hard to come by with my schedule and the sleep I need. But I thought I would update everyone on the Family......Jason is still in school and will receive his Bachelors next year. I am working and am 5 1/2 weeks away from the arrival of our fourth child, a boy whom we will name Stryder. The kids are very anxious for his arrival. Mom is too the first reason is I just can't wait to meet the little guy. Second, I am looking forward to time off of work and just being at home for a while. I go to the Dr. next Monday to see if anything has started happening. Life is great, a bit stressful at times. But we have embraced a new attitude and know that everything will work out for the best. I am trying hard to have faith, and do the things that will allow me the oppurtunities to be blessed. I am gratefyul for the Christmas season, I LOVE IT!! I love the spirit, the time with family. I am grateful for my Savior and all that he has blessed our littly family with. We have great family, good friends, good jobs that work so well with our crazy life and three (soon to be 4) adorable children to love and love us back. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and may next year be GRAND!!

Raydin lost yet another tooth....

Just a short entry...on Sunday Raydin informed me he had another loose tooth. (He lost his third a couple weeks ago.) At dinner we were eating pizza and he began to cry because he realized he had lost his tooth when he took a bite and didn't know where it had gone. We thought he had eaten it but it had just fallen onto the floor. If he keeps this up he will have no teeth and the tooth fair will be out of money. ( Gotta love the eyeball glasses on his forehead, lovely gift from Halloween)

Halloween....

We had a great halloween, we missed trick or treating with our friends the Broschinsky's ( hope they get better soon!!!). We went trick or treating just on one street in our neighborhood and got a lot of candy and we were gone for an hour. Jason and I dressed up along with the kids, for me it made it extra fun. After trick or treating we went to a party hosted by one of Kate's friends. It was a lot of fun, they took our pictures, we ate yummy taco soup, had some yummy desserts and appetizers and met some great new people. Thanks Kate for inviting us!! We had a great time, and made some fun memories. Jayde really enjoyed it this year and kept asking if we could go to another house. Oakley just held out her hand for candy but would say trick or treat if asked too. Raydin was so excited he ran so fast he always had to wait for his sisters. We hope everyone had a great and safe Halloween!!!

Oakley's 2nd Birthday....

We had a great time celebrating Oakley's 2nd birthday. It was fun to watch her open presents and say "wow" with each one. Every time I wanted to take a picture of her with a gift she would drop it and say cheese, it was very cute and entertaining. I can't believe it was two years ago already that she came into our family. We love her very much and are so happy to have her be a part of our family.

My Sister's a Mommy....

So my sister had her baby on Sunday the 18th of October. It's a boy and he weighed in at 8lbs. 10 oz. and 20 " long. We are so thrilled for her and Colby. His name is Trindon Thomas. He is such a cutie, and we were able to drive to Logan on Sunday to see the three of them. Congrats LaChelle and Colby and welcome baby Trindon!!!

Tee Ball has come and gone....

Raydin had a great time playing tee-ball this year and we LOVED watching him play. He did really well and had some great hits. Here are a few pics from the season. He was a great sport and loved every minute of it. I love to sit with Jason and watch our kids do things, it's great! LIfe is great and we are blessed with three wonderful children. It was a chore sometimes to try and watch the game and watch Jayde and Oakley at the same time. Jason had ball games also and sometimes the two overlapped. We are so glad that you enjoyed playing so much and proud of the great job you did. You always did your best and that's what matters!!!
