Lazy days...

Wow...where does time go? I was looking through some pictures this morning and came across the date on this one and I couldn't believe it's been almost a year because it seems just like yesterday that we took this picture. Last night (as I sat on the couch doing nothing as usual) I was thinking that I haven't done anything productive today. I was still in my p.j's, haven't taken a shower and I don't even think I brushed my hair today :( Then I started thinking about all the stuff I haven't done this week. I did some laundry, washed a few dishes, changed a lot of diapers, took care of Gavin, but nothing too exciting. After awhile I decided to just go to bed. This morning I woke up with a totally different attitude. After looking at this picture I was thinking about all the stuff Mike and I have accomplished this past year. We both had a tough semester, continued working full time plus some, we both moved, got married, bought a car, had a baby, and now back to work and school. After realizing all the stuff we have done this past year I don't feel bad about having a few lazy days :) So...here's to lazy days! We all deserve them, we all need them, and we all have them!

P.S. I am going to shower and change my clothes today :)

Update...

Mike, Jenni and Gavin on Sunday, June 1st. We all went and saw Julie and Sheldon bless their son Crew. After the blessing we had a BBQ. It was nice spending time with family and friends on a beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon!

Mom and Gavin hanging out. I'm not sure what face he is making, but I think he did something in his pants :)
Here is dad and Gavin keeping cool inside.

Here is Gavin only 17 days old. Boy he is changing fast! I'm not sure what I ate, but something upset his tummy and it has been a hard couple of days ! I felt so bad for our little man so I bought him a piggy wrist rattle to cheer him up :) Today he is feeling much better. I'm also feeling a lot better because Mike watched Gavin in the other room all night so I could actually get more than 2 hours of sleep. It was the first time in over 5 months that I slept the whole night...and it felt GREAT!! Thanks Mike!

HAYDEN!

On Sunday Mike drove back to Utah with my dad to spend a few days with Hayden. They had so much fun! They went to the zoo, dinosaur museum, bumper boats, race car track, played at the park and jumped on the tramp. He is such a fun little boy :) Mike can't believe how fast he is growing up...we love you Hayden! Hugs and kisses, Love Dad and Jen

Hair Cuts!

Buddy, Maggie and Jace all got hair cuts :) I don't have an after picture of Jace or Maggie but they are cute! It's been a change for all of them sharing the attention with Gavin, but overall I think they are adjusting well. Every time Gavin cries all three of them run over to see what's going on. Jace is my little watch dog...he doesn't let me or Gavin out of his sight. He will jump up on the chair and look over at Gavin sleeping in his pack-in-play. Buddy can't wait for Gavin to get a little bigger so he has someone to play with.

Mom, Dad and Gavin!

Wow, what a week! Gavin is 8 days old and it's been the best week ever! I never in a million years would of thought sleeping 3 hours a night, sitting in a glider chair 4 plus hours a day, changing 5 diapers an hour, 10 loads of laundry and dealing with buttocks pain would be so much fun :) Yes, it's a lot of work but TOTALLY worth it!! Today Gavin went to the hospital to get his blood drawn and he didn't even make a sound. He is such a good boy. Mike and I are very greatful he is a new addition to our lives. Other than a few minor recovery complications with me, everyone is healthy, happy and doing very well. We appreciate all the help, love and prayers that have been in our behalf.
