Potty Trained!!!

YAY!  I'm so happy that Jackson has reached this milestone.  We started potty training a few weeks ago and Jackson has done great.  Just a few accidents and he even wakes up at night if he needs to go!

Way to go Jack!!! We are so excited for you!

Valentines Day

Okay I know Valentine's Day has been over for awhile, but since it's one of my favorite holidays I had to post about what we did and a new tradition I want to start.

Valentine's Day at our house is about our whole family since Bo and I try to have a date night every week. Of course we write a special note to eachother, but it's fun to have everyone included. This year I thought it would be nice for each member of our family to make a valentine for every other member. Then we'd read our cards at dinner. In the afternoon all of the kids decorated their valentine's and one at a time went into a room with me to secretly tell me what they wanted on their card. They were so cute.

We decided to go to Pizza Pie Cafe' for dinner. (I took the camera, but Brayden was not too happy so i totally forgot about that...sorry.) Since we were out to dinner, we read our cards in the car while driving (next year we'll do it before we go.) The kids loved it and you could see how special they felt when they heard what everyone wrote to them.

Oh, I just love Valentine's Day and my family I get to share it with!

Brayden at 4 months

Brayden went to the Dr. today for his 4 month check up. Here are his stats:

16 lbs 7 oz (80th percentile)
his height was the 80th percentile also, but I can't seem to find my paper with the number at the moment.

Brayden is a very happy baby and just started giggling the last couple of weeks. I love it!
He's not to interested in moving yet and is content to just stare around. He rolled over once last week.
He is a pretty good sleeper for the most part once we get him to sleep. He fights every night.
It's been fun to watch him grow.

We love you Brayden!

I thought it would be fun to put this together. The kids are all about the same age in the pictures. Hailey top left. Conrad top right. Jackson bottom left. Brayden bottom right.

I just love how Conrad looks like a little temple worker. :)

Brayden's Blessing

Bo blessed Brayden on Sunday, January 2, 2010. It was a nice blessing and a nice day. Thank you to all of the family and friends that we able to make it. I don't have Bo's phone with me so I just have the pictures from JCPenney. I got these taken a couple of weeks before when he turned 3 months.
