5.7.2011 - We went to Tashies Graduation {AJ's sister} at Utah State and I sent a text to Schmucker {college friend from the streets of chocolate} that morning with no response.... we were walking out of the last ceremony and I turn around and there she is!!! Oh how I love her and haven't seen her for FOREVER! {I'm such a bad friend} I am so glad I got to see her and her amazing parents even if it was just for a minute. Jemma had a rough day with very short hot naps.

5.9.2011 - Here is her birthday hat that came in the mail this week! We had to take a quick pic.... ooooo I love it! she did too promise.

5.9.2011 - Don't mess with Jemma and her cupcake. She was in Heaven! I cant wait to give her her own cake! You just wait!!!

5.13.2011 - The one nice day we had AJ pulled out his bike Jemma needed a ride and she was a little hesitant. After she figured out it moved she didn't want to get off!

4.22.2011 - Im pretty sure Jemma was sick the whole month of April so this is what we did.

4.28.2011 - She loves the fridge. She takes everything off the bottom shelf and then puts it back in.

4.26.2011 - Jemmas besties Emory and Beckett (who was too entertained with the air mattress) came over to play one day. she loved it! She didnt even care Emory was in her walker...just happy to have a friend.

LL Bean Museum in Provo. 3.25.2011

2011-05-18T13:35:00.000-06:00

I went to Provo with my mom in march and we stayed with Tosha. one day we went to this museum I have no idea what it is really called but the girls called it the LLBean Museum. It was so fun. I really am going to have to take Jemma there every time we go to Provo. and while we were there someone ordered a private show so the girls got to touch a turtle and a snake! I wouldn't do it! It was also during March Madness so luckily Remi and Faith got to touch Jimmer! {{Lifesize Cardboard copy}}

3.5.2011 - Faith let me do her hair and her make up while mom was in {{Airnizona}} before we went to a ball game {I think we were going to see mom because she had not seen her for a week!} but wouldn't let me take a picture...she needed a nap and she got one! She did wear that headband all night long which is amazing! The zippers are pure vintage and were given to me by my grandma and i loved the colors so I had to keep them in the family

3.7.2011 - Jemmas new favorite thing to do is stand and pull down everything she can reach!

3.7.2011 - I gave in and let her feed herself!

3.7.2011 - She is so into feeding herself!

3.10.2011 - Jemma is obsessed with dumping the dog food and then attempting to pick it back up and put it in the bowl!

3.17.2011 - On AJs watch she went down the step and high centered herself! We thought it was funny...she obviously didn't.

3.17.2011 - Yes! I gave her POP ROCKS! It was super entertaining and she kept on putting them in her mouth!

February was such a busy month. So here's a quickie! Enjoy!

Jemma Loves to do this everyday!

And she got her first band aid!

She also had her first OREO! and now HYPERVENTILATES every time she sees a cookie of any kind.

We went bowling for Terisa's (Grandmas) birthday!

She was the cutest basketball game JUNKIE! Here she is in her GO TRAVIS outfit! and for some reason she loves the hornet on the gym floor.

We went to A LOT of these! While at one of Shads basketball games I was trying to watch the game. ha. I handed her an orange and she demolished the thing before I even knew it. She was so occupied I didn't even try to take it from her

Jemma crawled up on AJ's lap and fell asleep! actually she was snoring in minutes. It was a first and super cute.

Dear Darla! I hate your stinkin guts.

Breakfast with Sally!

2011-02-28T12:41:00.001-07:00

So I just need to brag... I am so excited. Sally is so amazing. Her 4x4 team WON! and not only did they win they broke the school record and the meet record. She also got 8th in the Triple jump with a 35.3. I am so proud of her I could cry! seriously. so cool!

I love you sally!

Feb. 11. I'm so far behind.... We drove to Burley (early) to eat at Perkins with Sally. She was on her way to a track meet in Boise. We had one hour and we got to the 10 minutes before her time was up and they were waiting for us! It was so fun though and I cant wait to do it again! She is at the Great West Conference Championships in New York! Go Sally! We loveYou!

Jemma and Faith. February 2.2011

2011-02-15T16:11:00.001-07:00

Jemma being well Jemma and Faith being super creative. and yes Jemma has puke on her foot looking all innocent like someone else put it there! She loves her chair especially when Faith is here and wants to sit in it. And Faith loves to pretend like just because her head is in a box makes her invisible and scary. It actually was pretty cute.

Today....

2011-02-10T21:42:00.000-07:00

Today my scrapbook room was clean. I'm serious. I spent a couple hours making Valentine Cards for a client. That sounds so professional but true. This room is so far from professional! This was not me (well kind of a lie...everything on the table was me pulling things out of her hands and putting it up where she cant destroy it or hurt herself leaving me a small space to work magic). Her name is Jemma and she is an angelic 8 month old that loves this room. If I lose her during the day. I find her here. You cant get mad at her, she's too cute!

I so have the CUTEST, MOST PERFECT BABY ALIVE and Second Amy is such an amazing person and photographer. Let me just share with you her smiles, funny faces, sweet chubby cheeks (her face and her bum) and her gorgeous blue eyes. She makes me smile everyday and I cant imagine life without her. THANK YOU AMY for capturing such precious moments!

December December December!

2011-01-01T22:17:00.001-07:00

December is full of pictures! Just a heads up... I don't want to overwhelm you but there are a lot of pictures. She is just so darn cute and I cant help but share her with all of you! I did cut back on the words for those of you who still struggle with reading and focus! Enjoy.

12.7.2010 - Jemma loves dirt! actually she just likes to sit by the sliding door and watch the dog and cats through the window and when I'm not paying attention she pulls my dying tree over and enjoys a few bites.

12.8.2010 – We took Jemma to the Jazz Heat game and it was so fun! She did so well and was actually enjoyable. She can’t wait to go again!

12.9.2010 – I finally finished Jemma’s crib skirt and bumper so we put her bed together and she is sleeping in it! It’s a work in progress, she has good and bad nights but she does love her crib. (I’m still working on the quilt and her room is slowly coming together)

12.16.2010 – Jemma loves to do her chores! Her favorite… the laundry. And when she is done working so hard she sleeps so well.

12.18.2010 – Faith came and stayed with us for the weekend and it was so fun! We had a blast, we went to Twin, had a party, made treats and when it was time to come home Faith didn’t want to leave. I didn’t want her to either. Jemma loves her to death and they hang out for hours just playing and watching cartoons. Jemma figured out how to stand up on anything, climb up stairs and fall down stairs (which has become a daily experience) thankfully there are only 2. Jemma in her Christmas dress after church on Sunday (I tried to get Faith in the picture but she had her clothes off before I knew it!). And Jemma found her new hangout spot in AJ’s beloved oversized reclining chair!

12.20.2010 – We had a Christmas family outing and went to the Rock Creek Lights in Hansen. It’s actually really cool, tons of Christmas lights and a live camel.

12.21.2010 – We had Christmas with Tashie and Tyler early. Jemma will love the dress she got her but that day she just wanted the tag.

12.22.2010 – Jemma again playing with the cat through the glass and then trying to grab a quick bite.

12.23.2010 – She would play in the tub for hours if I would let her, she loves it and it is so entertaining to watch her get clean while making yet another mess. And when all clean she does loves her daddy’s chair!

November 2010

Merry Holiday! Love, US!!

Pumpkin Patch 2010

2010-12-07T13:43:00.001-07:00

Tosha stayed at my house during Echo's State Volleyball Extravaganza and we got tired of hanging out at the house all day so we went to Oakley's finest Pumpkin Patch. It was actually really fun. The weather was perfect. They had some ugly goats that you could feed and some cute rabbits, lots and lots of pumpkins, a cute "stick your head through the cutout picture" thing (I have no idea what they are called), a mini hay bale maze, and a fun hay-ride. They gave each girl a sucker and a mini pumpkin, they were so excited. I took a lot of pictures (so obvious) and am definitely going to go next year! Jemma was happy in her costume too and the whole time not just for 10 minutes, so thankful it was warm and a little big. I just love Faith and Remi in every single picture. We were probably there for over an hour. On the way home Faith fell asleep (I only live literally 5 minutes away).

October is not over yet so here is a sneak peak...

2010-10-24T22:10:00.000-06:00

We just decided Saturday morning to go to Logan for Homecoming. One of my SVU friends hooked us up with some tickets and while we were waiting we handed big blue the baby. ha ha. We made it through the first quarter and then left before we got too wet. I don't think it has stopped raining since. I'm glad we went it was so fun and so good to see some old friends.

Bringing baby Jemma home

Faith and baby Jemma

AJ had to speak in church the week after we had the baby and I wanted to listen to him so we went late and left early to avoid the "baby awe" rush.

Oh May....

2010-05-18T18:07:00.006-06:00

We went golfing AJ and I and Jake and Tiffany and I got to play with the new camera. Its so easy to take a good picture. so nice!!

Tashie got married May 14th. She is now Tashie Butterworth! It was a wonderfully long day for me. 39 weeks and all belly! And her chocolate fountain was amazing! Thank you AJ and my wonderful mother and shad for doing all the work.

For Mothers Day we got a new camera. Hallelujah! not that these pictures are great but I went to church in Almo to surprise mom and then went home for dinner and this was what we got.

37 weeks...................................................

2010-04-30T19:35:00.000-06:00

At week 37, your pregnancy is considered full term, meaning baby is likely to thrive after birth. Baby spends these last weeks in preparation for the outside world… meaning careful refinement of the blink, suck, inhale and exhale. Meconium, which you’ll probably find in the first diaper, is accumulating in the intestines. If (okay, as) you worry about giving birth, consider what it’s like for the little one. During the journey out of your womb, baby will produce more stress hormones than any other time in life.

Baby Shower!

2010-04-11T20:59:00.007-06:00

Baby Shower. April 10, 2010!

The chair I sat in and the beginning of the endless wonderful presents I recieved.

Tiffany did the clotheslines, I think she had way too much fun but they turned out so cute! I had bought a few outfits and Tashie, my sister in law gave me the cutest pink dress, but most of the clothes came from Faiths closet(my two year old little sister). Thank you mom! And the umbrellas and rain drops that were so adorable. I think they were my favorite decorations.

We had a onesie decorating table where the guests could go and decorate a onesie. I have so many cute onesies! It was so fun to see all the different and creative things everyone did.

Grandma gave me a bird cage. super cute decoration for the babys room... which is a work in progress but Im slowly getting there. Just wait!

The THANK YOU and candy buffet turned out super cute! Rue found the cutest suckers and there was so much candy. There was hardly anything left over too!

The party favors were pots Rue spray painted pink and white to match the party colors and then she planted pink flowers. My amazing mom wrote the poem and Tiffany hung up the paper laterns and tissue paper flowers. It was so cute this picture doesnt do it justice. The Poem: April showers bring May flowers. To thank you for coming we've planted a seed. In a little pot you dont have to weed. Please take one to day and enjoy watching your flower come up in May!

I have been collecting frames for the past 3 months from TJ MAXX for the babys room... I put baby pictures of AJ and I in them. Its so cute I dont want to take it down.

Faith was so fun and helped me open all my presents!

Rue and I made a motorcycle cake for AJ. It turned out super cute... AJ just laughed.

My two wonderful friends, Tiffany and Rue and my mother n law Terisa gave me a shower that was beyond spectacular. The food was amazing, the decorations were so cute and there were so many fun games and things they did. I am so blessed to live in such a giving community with so many wonderful people!

Weeks 33 - 36 (Month 8):

2010-04-05T19:07:00.005-06:00

Honeydew, Pineapple, and 17 inch Computer Screen
(specifically compared for the male species)!

Baby’s senses are continuing to improve -- when light peeks in through your (extremely) stretched belly, those tiny eyelids and irises blink and dilate. And, baby can now recognize and react to simple songs… time to start practicing your lullabies! Growth (at least inside your womb) is starting to slow, and you may notice baby descend into your pelvis at the end of this month.

My attempt at a Happy St. Patricks Day!

2010-03-24T20:20:00.003-06:00

Above: my attempt - lets just say it tasted a lot better than what it looks like. below and expert caker - This is what I wanted it to look like. Im not a very good cake baker! better luck next year!

Chocolate Fountain 2006

2010-03-10T20:31:00.002-07:00

I found these the other day I loved doing this wedding in the Springville Arts Museum, it was a lot of fun and so beautiful! The photographer for the wedding took these and was nice enough to give them to me.

Weeks 29-32 (Month 7): Squash

2010-03-08T20:29:00.001-07:00

Baby’s energy is surging, thanks to the formation of white fat deposits beneath the skin. (Have those kicks and jabs to the ribs tipped you off yet?) Baby is also settling into sleep and waking cycles, though -- as you’ve also probably noticed -- they don’t necessarily coincide with your own. Also this month, all five senses are finally functional, and the brain and nervous system are going through major developments.

Summers growing belly by Brittany Clark!

2010-03-08T19:55:00.001-07:00

This is my sister Summer at the baptism. She doesn't put any pictures of her pregnant belly on her blog. So I told her I would do it for her readers...so they believe that her belly is growing. And grow it does. She always dresses super adorable, and when I am pregnant (when not now, and not if) I am going to wear sweats...amap. Thats 'as much as possible.' Im all for acronyms.

Thanks Brittany!!

I have a dream....

2010-02-27T15:48:00.002-07:00

....Of the perfect nursery. dream on. so far the only piece we have is the crib which is similar to the one in this picture (my favorite room by the way) Im on this quest to find the perfect dresser and bedding and everything else I think I need. too bad AJ doesnt feel the same way! Just thought I would share this with all of you. plus I need to update the BLOG more often and i dont have anything other than what I am thinking about right now to blog about. so enjoy!

2010-02-24T14:04:00.001-07:00

25-28 Weeks. Month 6.
Inside the womb, the formation of tiny capillaries is giving baby a healthy pink glow. Baby's also soaking up your antibodies, getting the immune system ready for life outside the womb. Eyes are forming, and baby will soon perfect the blink -- perfect for batting those freshly grown lashes.

ABC CARDS!

2009-08-31T14:12:00.003-06:00

I made two more sets of ABC cards. lets just say they take a lot longer than I had planned but I finished in record time. haha. Atleast it only took me two months and not a year like everything else does. I love how they turned out! They are super fun to make and I cant wait to give them to their owners. I hope they like them as much as I do!!

American Crafts paper, Cardstock, Ribbon, rub ons and a little Diamond Glaze, Large Book Rings, Cricut and tons of cartridges and a tough Laminator.

August 1, 2009

Sunny blessed us last saturday morning with 5 new puppies! you ask what are they... well they are Purebred Mutts. The mother is a mutt and the father well for all we know he is a mutt because he is one ugly dog. But even if our dog gets around we still love her and want to give these ugly little dogs away before they die on the highway.... please someone tell me they want a cute cuddly puppy. I know you want to see what they all look like thats why I went out and took pictures of them for you!!!This is what sunny loves and if you lift up your foot when you are outside she rolls over on her back. If you dont lift up your foot she will lay on your leg until you pick up your foot. Lovely dog!

Brittanys Wedding

2009-08-04T15:19:00.003-06:00

On the way home from brits bridal shower/temple weekend I got a horrible awful toothache that turned into a nightmare. One painful weekend, three bottles of ibprofen, Two trips to the dentist, one trip to the evening clinic, 4 hours in the emergency room, one final visit to an oral surgeon in twin and 6 days later I looked like death. Needless to say I didnt look beautiful the day Brittany got married. June 27, 2009 in the SLC Temple. I was so ugly I didnt take any pictures and hated being in her pictures. SICK!!! The wedding was wonderful and the wedding reception was a struggle. AJ and Tashie (thankheavens are amazing) and did the chocolate fountain becuase I couldnt stand long enough to tell them what to do. The wind blew so we couldnt even turn them on. Mom rigged some table for the drink containers and Echo bumped it and they shattered into a billion pieces. Some guy kept thinking the power kept shutting off because the fountains werent on so he kept pushing that reset button on the plug, yeah retard! we kept having to turn everything back on because he kept shutting it off. The fountain drink thing didnt work so we had to fill cups. too much work! Kids were running everywhere!! It was a super stressful day for me. ha. dont you wish you knew what I looked like. You would cry if you saw me.

This took a long time but we finally got it. She is super goofy!

Happy Fathers Day!

2009-06-22T22:57:00.005-06:00

For fathers day I got AJ this golf bag (super cool) I even managed to keep it a secret for almost a month but still ended up giving it to him a week early. I know we arent technically parents. we were close once and our bill was equal to three kids so I think it counts. plus any holiday is a good excuse for us to buy something for each other. I like it. I had the wonderful pro at Rupert order it for me, keep it at the clubhouse, and then at the right time help me give it to him. I told AJ for about a week that if he took me golfing I would give him his gift early. The weather was so lovely that I didn't know when he would be able to take me and I was going to be in Provo for a couple of days and then he decided to play in the Pro Am in Burley so whenever he could take me I was going for. He finally decided one night we were going so as soon as he left to come and get me I called the clubhouse and Bob switched out his clubs from his old bag to this new one. when we got there and he went in the little locker room to get his clubs(he has his own little locker where he leaves his clubs every night) he saw his bag. He was super excited and then I made him stand there and let me take a picture of his super cool bag. He got tons of compliments. I'm proud of myself for not telling him before I gave it to him and for getting him such a cool present that he actually wanted!

ABC's and 123's

2009-06-22T22:23:00.007-06:00

These are the cards I made for faith for her birthday. Im so proud of them and she kind of likes them. mom and I were driving home from provo and she was looking at them in the back seat and it was so cute because she kept saying,"mom what color is this?" or "mom what letter is this?" hopefully she likes it more later, she is just barely starting to learn and have an interest in letters and numbers. we'll see im super proud of them and would love to make you a set. if you provide the paper pack (double sided please) an american crafts alphabet rub on set and 2 large rings. maybe we could trade something. I used the cricut for the backs and the slice for the letters and numbers. the violin, quilt, kite and umbrella I made myself because i didnt have anything cool from all of Terisas cartridges. (thank goodness she has a lot!)Thank you so much Terisa without her cartridges I wouldnt have been able to finish this project (technically I havent because I still havent finished my set which I am so glad I made one for myself)

Faith Turned TWO!!

2009-06-17T18:46:00.005-06:00

Faith is super spoiled but we love her! For her birthday we made a flower cake obviously and she got a purse and shoes from nana, a baby from grandma, honey a build a bear dog from all of her favorite sisters that she loved, balls if you didnt notice and some serious a b c and 1 2 3 cards.

Happy Mothers Day (One Month Late!)

2009-06-08T01:59:00.005-06:00

Before! I sanded and sanded and sanded and sanded. I didnt want slivers on my bum when I sat down nor did I want you to get a sliver if you ever came over to have a barbeque outside one night.

During. First Coat, Second Coat...
Third Coat, Fourth Coat, maybe fifth??

FINISHED PROJECT!!

AJ always teases me about how many projects I start but struggle finishing. {It is so true Ill tell you about them some day. I'm working on it but it is so hard for me for some reason. When I figure it out I will let you all know.} Anyways back to mothers day post... So he's been really letting me know these days how many projects I have so I have been trying to work really hard on finishing them one at a time. Well he brought me home a project to add to the overflowing pile for mothers day.(Sp this disease I have isnt entirely all my fault!) Which I love and I loved finishing it. This bench/picnic table has been sitting on our back porch for a month and I just finished it and cant wait to one day use it. They are two separate pieces that when put together is a picnic table and the tops can be folded down into benches. super nice. I love my wonderful and thoughtful husband!

This is what you have all been waiting for!!!

2009-05-22T18:27:00.004-06:00

Last one for a while I promise! So the secrets out these pictures are on facebook! haha... so gay.... anyways AJ brought this home about a week ago and every nice day since we have been on it. I like it.. I don't love it yet because my seat is microscopic (I'm serious you have to look really close to find it) compared to my bum and I'm not going to go into detail but lets just say it isn't the most comfortable thing you have ever ridden. but I do like the thing...we are in the process of getting a bigger seat for my larger rear but until then i will still ride it and not complain because it is a lot of fun. Even if I look like Mrs. policeman in my super hot helmet. at least I'm wearing one which I am glad I am because trust me bugs do not feel good on your forehead and I'm not about to eat one so yes I like my helmet. Why did he decide to buy a Harley??? who knows, if you ask him hell tell you he bought it to stimulate the economy. haha. what a joke. Its a big boy toy and he loves it and thats all that matters huh? Maybe if you re lucky he'll let you touch it.

State Track May 15, 2009 Friday Prelims and Long Jump

2009-05-20T23:41:00.002-06:00

This one isnt as long as the last one I promise! More videos less pictures. Faith gets into every single one of my posts (sorry she is too cute)so there is a ton of pictures of her. sorry sally I didn't want this post to be all about you! JK. Faith just gets her picture on here, everyone talks about how fast you are not how cute you look with ponies and "no no's" Sally ended up winning the Long as well as the 100m, 200m (setting a state record) and the 400m. Echo competed on Saturday in the 800m taking 9th and getting a PR and the 4x4 getting 4th. Their team also recieved the 1A State Championship Trophy. Whoo hoo!

Sally long jumped first at 9 in the morning we did make it to see her jump in the finals and my camera isn't as cool as Brooke's so I didn't bust it out. she has way better pictures. check out facebook for more pics of sally.I did get her receiving her medal so I'll feel good about myself for a moment. If you still havent figured it out, she, sally, is amazing and won the long jump with a 17'2" This is the first of four medals and a trophy she got that weekend.

The two Trackstars Sally and Echo.

Sally winning her 100m

What I cant figure out is how mom smuggled in a whole watermelon! Faith enjoyed it though for a good twenty minutes she gnawed on that thing sometimes getting more than she could chew.

Pony twins Remi and Faith. Super cute.

This one is super cute of Remi.
