Yes, we are alive!!!

Hello everyone!!!!!! Long time no see. hahaha So, we survived summer. Jeff was able to finish his internship and slept about two whole days after that.

Anyways, we have been great! Nathan started preschool (yeah) and loves it but not as much as I do. hahaha He comes home excited to see Sophia and I. He is such a great brother he loves Sophia sooooo much sometimes too much. He wants to wrestle with her and play piggy back ride with her too. I tell him that she is too small for wrestling but he doesn't get it.

Nathan is excited because his birthday is on Thursday but we will be doing his B-day party on Saturday. Everyone is invited. I will be sending out invitations today.

Sophia is started to do the G.I Jane crawl (that means trouble for me since now I'm going to have to put everything away and vacuum 3 times a day.) anyways she loves being mobile and getting into everything. She has two small teeth and is as beautiful as ever.

Jeff is back in school and is doing his IBC he is very excited. He left today at 6:30 am to Badger Creek for a small retreat with his IBC class. I don't think it will be too hard for him since he loves going camping. In the meantime I am home with the kids. Oh well.

As for me I am a stay at home mom. I try to keep myself busy but there is so much you can do in Rexburg. I am planning on going back to school to get a Spanish Endorsement. So, cross your fingers so BYU-I takes me back!!!

Well this is just an small updated blog from our family. Hope everyone is doing well.
Here is a little video of Sophia 'talking'














I have to eat what???!!!!!


Thankgiving Point it was sooooo hot

Where to start

I know it has been a long time, but I just couldn't find the time to blog, we have been so busy, but oh well. After weeks of frustration Jeff has finally been able to find an Internship. We were so happy to have found one because if he hadn't we would have been pushed back another semester. There is only a small problem he works ALL NIGHT! As many of you know he is the night manager over at FedEx, so he starts there around 2pm and finishes around 9:45pm, and then goes straight to his Internship. Jeff works from 10pm till 7am then comes home gets in the shower and goes to bed. It never fails Sophia and Nathan wake up at that time so I get up with them and try to be as quiet as we can so Jeff can get some sleep. I don't mind that he's not around during the day because I'm used to that, but now nights uggg (dont like it at all) the first two nights were hard because I couldn't get much sleep knowing that he was away. BUT we are thankful that he was able to find this Internship, I just gets kinda lonely sometimes. Oh well (sigh)
The kids are doing good, Sophia just turned 4 months! She is a wonderful baby, she is always smiling and loves to be tickled, she adores Nathan and loves for him to talk to her. I took her to the doctor yesterday for her 4 month shots it was a bit dramatic as usual. Today was a bit harder on her since she got a little bit of fever. Hopefully tonight won't be too bad.

Nathan is an awesome brother he is always trying to protect Sophia and every time he hears her cry he goes to see what's wrong with her. Nathan loves to cook and play with his cars and Lego's. Next Monday Nathan will start going to 'summer' preschool we are so excited for him, he loves to play with other kids and loves going to school.


My two loves!

Cute!


My mom bought Nathan this tent and he loves it. He is always asking me to put Sophia in with him. I couldn't resist. I love my kids, they are my little angels, they are my little motor that keeps me going. Love you babies.

Sophia's Blessing

We were able to bless Sophia yesterday, it was a wonderful experience. I wished I could of had more family over but living in a different country makes it a little difficult for everyone to come. I was lucky to have my mama, brother my cousin Leslie and her husband Bob over. We had so much fun with them. On Saturday we headed out to Jackson to see the snowmobile races and later that night we went to see The Rainmaker (excellent play-totally recommend it) On Sunday we had ribs for dinner and were soooo good. I'm posting some pictures of the blessing but will be posting more later because Bob took better pictures of Sophia with his awesome camera (next big purchase). I am so happy to have a wonderful husband like Jeff and for him to hold the Priesthood. I love you babe!

Sophia la Rumbera

Today Sophia turns a month old. I can't believe it! It seems like I had her yesterday. She has been a pretty good baby. She is extremely ticklish and loves it when we give her kisses on her neck. Sophia is totally a daddy's little girl, she still can't talk but she has Jeff already wrapped around her finger. It's so cute to watch Jeff melt around her.
Anyways, these are pictures that we have taken along this month.
In these pictures I was trying to take pictures of her funny toes. They are exactly like Jeff's, specially her big toe.
She also is very, very hairy as you can see she has Wolverine ears.



My momma and I


I am so that my mom was able to come and help me out with Nathan. Not only did she help me out with Nathan and Sophia, but she always made me laugh it was great to have her around. I don't think she knows how special she made me feel. I am so grateful to have such a wonderful and marvelous mom. I miss you sooooooooooooooooooo much already.


Priceless!


Nap time


Nathan loves his Abuela soooo much, they are truly best friends. He was so happy to have her around.
