Happy Birthday Brandon!

Dear Daddy,

Happy Birthday! I hope you have a great day! I have only had one birthday and it was quite tramatic, so I hope yours goes better than mine!!

I hope you enjoy the shirt I got you, I only got you a shirt. I can only assume you don't need pants since you never put them on me.

In honor of your big day please enjoy these photos of us doin' what we do. Because lets face it, it might be your day, but it is still all about me, obviously.

Love,
Janey

Back in Business!

Brandon FINALLY was able to fix his Camera, so today after church we went on a little stroll by the Temple and Brandon was able to get a few shots of Happy Jane!! These are a few of my faves from today!!

TVA Family Day!

TVA Family Day was a ton of fun this year!! complete with two bouncy houses! Janers loved them would have stayed in the bouncy houses all day if we would had let her! We also got tons of food and won a gift card from the raffle!!!

The Happy Fam!

Bouncy House!

The dads!

Time to Play!!

These are a few pics from the playgroup we had a few weeks ago. These are all the babies in that were born in February minus one (Samantha we missed you!)

If you are going to sit by Jane prepare to be touched.

not the preferred pose, Obviously!

Jane loves to hold hands!

Yep, she's a grabber!!

Janey is 7 (and a half) Months old!

A picture story of my little 7 month old dumpling!

Janey still loves the outdoors, being thrown in the air and all of her other tricks she does with Dad.

Janey is a very supportive friend as pictured above.

Janey is a huge mariners Fan now.

Janey loves her stuffies, obviously.
Ok, but actually she really does but this picture was too cute to pass up.

Not as funny as advertized on 'youtube'

first off apparently Jane only likes me in small doses, for the rest of the hour Ashley was out she screamed embarrassing us both and secondly Ashley isn't nearly as fun on her meds. A bad combo in the oral surgeon's busy waiting room, filling the prescription in Costco, and the hour long car ride home.

Words of Wisdom

Ashley here.

Tuesday I get my wisdom teeth pulled!!!! AHHHH I know I am the only person over the age of 18 who has not had this done yet...

Any words of advice or magic pills you know of that will make it so I don't feel any pain or have any swelling?!?

Let me know.

My Favorite thing.

I adore that my baby-kin's arms appear to be wrist-less. Just arm then Hand.
Who needs 'em anyways??

Surfer Baby

We figured since Jane is such a Genius water baby and graduated with honors from swim class, the next logical step is surfing lessons, obviously.
But seriously, Jane loves playing on the surfboard. What a ham.

Riding Tandam

She is screaming with excitement in this shot.

Dad showing her how to pop up!

Hangin' Ten.

We keep you posted on when her first surf competition is.

Born to Swing

Brandon's new fave thing to do with Janey is to take her on a walk outside, they don't usually get very far but no matter what they always make it to the swing. Brandon usually takes Janey to the swing when she has a case of the crankies... and it always seems to make everything better.
The other day Janey was too fussy and tired to even sleep, so Brandon brought her out to the swing and eventually she konked out, right there on the swing. With her cute little noggin hanging back and mouth open of course (just like her pops).

Just Keep Swimming!

Yes, I stole your blog title Erika, what are you going to do about it?!

But seriously, Jane just graduated from swim lessons at gunstock ranch. Thats right now I just drop her off at the pool, she is that good.
It was a lot of fun, she was in a clas with three other girls all over a year old, so she was the runt... THe first day I got there I was thinking to myself that she was wayyy to young to be doing this, but she it turned out to be one of the best decisions we made, she wasn't scared of anything, she dunks her face, she falls into my arms of the ledge, she hangs onto the noodle. The other girls that were a little older were a lot more reserved in the water. Now we can take Janey to the beach, pool whatever!!! She never cries, even when it is cold!!! totally worth it!!!

Janey and the moms swimmin' around, as you can see she was getting tired and starting to rub those little eyes.

Meet Aunty Kylee, Janey's swim instructor!!!

We heart our water baby!

Alysha's 21st Birthday Celebration

Hooray Alysha is the big 2-1!!We celebrated by chowing down on at Pizza Bobs, and then we had a little surprise party waiting for her back at Sunshine's place. funniest part of the night was when Annette wrapped up a martinelli's sparkling cider bottle (as seen in the photo) and then wrote in the card that she is "drinking age" now. And as Alysha was opening it Annette kept saying dont' tell anyone I did this, and you don't really have to drink it.... So everyone got nervous that she really got her wine or something!!! LOL so funny.... oh Annette you are so sneaky....
