A Fun Weekend

It has been a great weekend. Chad and I met with a Loan Officer and are getting our home construction loan under way so that we can start building our home. We also got a surprise visit from Aunt Angi and Grandma Bonnie, unfortunately Aunt Angi has to fly back home today. It was really great to see you Angi and we are looking forward to seeing you in June.

Saturday was a great day as well since my mom and I went got our hair cut with out the kids. It was very relaxing and enjoyable and I really love my new hair cut.

Chad and I are also working on getting the bathroom in our current home finished along with a few other things so that we can put our house on the market. Some of our tile has not come in yet so my installer called and told me that they would be here tomorrow morning. It will make the bathroom look newer than what it really is.

I hope that everyone is doing great and that you all had a great weekend.

6 Months Old

Tessa is now 6 months old and yesterday we had her 6 months doctors appointment. Poor little thing had to get 4 shots. She is now 15lbs 5oz and is 25 inches long. She was not a very happy little girl yesterday evening but she seems to be doing a little better today. I forgot to let you all know that last week Chad also had to go to Boise Wednesday night to do a job for a company over there so Paxton spent the night with grammy and papa Tom. Chad came back home Thursday and Paxton was really excided to see him and the started to look for me and got a little upset that I was not with daddy. Since I didn't get home until Friday evening and Chad had to work, Sari, a really good friend of ours, watched paxton for us. He had tons of fun with Sari's daughter Harlee who is 3 years old. Sorry I still don't have any pictures from Boise yet but I will get them posted as soon as I get some.

Boise Trip

Hey everyone I know that it has been a few days since my last post. Tessa and I took a trip over to Boise with my mom and sister for a short get away. My mom and I went over on Wednesday and picked up my Aunt Debbie Thursday morning. My sister came over with her daughter Brooklyn on Thursday. It was a great time. We did lost of shopping and got some really great deals. Kris and I came back home Friday late after noon with the babies and my mom stayed with my Aunt until Sunday evening.
Sorry I don't have any pictures yet, but as soon as my mom is able to send me some I will get the posted for you all to see. I hope that this finds all of you doing really well.

Fun Times

On Sunday Chad and Paxton were outside working on the yard getting all the dirt put into the flower beds. Chad was shoveling the dirt into a wheelbarrow to move it and Paxton was out picking up the dirt with his hands like any boy would be. Well Chad found him a garden spade. When Paxton saw the little shovel his eyes just lite right up and was so excided that daddy had a shove just his size. Words can not explain the thrill that Paxton gets from being with his daddy and felling like he gets to help. Paxton just really adores his daddy. It is just amazing to be able to see the world through kids eyes. Well as for Tessa and myself life is going great. She is trully a mommies girl. I love seeing her change and grow every day.

This is a picture of Tessa playing outside.

Our Musician

Last night we went over to Matt and Christine's,some friend of ours, house for dinner and games. It was tons of fun for all of us. Chad learned how to play the game Clue and we also played sorry revenge. Paxton had lots of fun being some where other than home and really loved the piano. Christine was teaching Paxton how to play a song so we took a few pictures.

Here is Christine playing a song with Paxton and Tessa is on the floor behind them.

Here is my favorite one of all :)

Chore Time!

Since Chads parents are gone on a trip to Isrial we are taking care of their animals for them. Paxton is having a blast and is enjoying being daddys little helper. To take care of the animals we have to feed and water the horses, feed the cats (yes cats), and feed their dog Pepper. It takes a little while but we get it done.

Paxton really enjoys riding in the wheel barrel and he always comes running to the truck at the end saying 'helper mommy helper'.

Oh yes, and Paxton found a feather from a pheasant.
