I found these pictures of Hayden dressing himself and thought they were to cute to not share
He actually was being silly. He dresses himself the right way usually.

Our fun night

Yesterday I spent the day at Aunt Sharon's house sewing. I was missing my baby but had a lot to do. Court said that he had been really tired and had taken two naps. That is not my child. I decided to go home and play with him for a few minutes before I needed to leave for the R.S. Broadcast. I walked in the door and he was crying and so I picked him up to love him and got the best "Welcome Home Mom" ever. He, with NO warning what so ever threw up all over me. That's the second time that's happened the minute I walked in the door. So, instead of going to hear our Prophet speak, I did this............
(thanks Court for snapping a picture)After throwing up a few times, two baths and three movies (Lady and the Tramp, The Jungle Book, and A Bug's Life) my baby finally fell asleep........
............sitting up on the couch. We moved him to his bed only to have him join us in ours two hours later. We slept till 10:30 this morning. I can't remember the last time I've done that!! He seems to be feeling a little better today, but still has a low fever so we stayed home from church-and had another bath. Court went to teach our class and count the money.

Getting Closer.........

This is my kitchen today..............

Pacific Pulmonary Services was founded in 1978 in Bakersfield, California as "Med-Mart", a full-service Durable Medical Equipment company serving the Central Valley of California. In 1993, Peter Kelly, the Company’s CEO, and other investors acquired Med-Mart. In 1996, the business was refocused to concentrate on what we do best, home oxygen and respiratory medications equipment and services. This set the stage for the rapid growth of the Company. Today, Pacific Pulmonary Services employs over 1000 associates and is the largest privately held provider of home oxygen and respiratory medications in the United States.

Pacific Pulmonary Services operates more than 100 Patient Care Centers in 14 states: California, Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, Texas, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Indiana and Illinois. -----Sorry Mom, no Utah :(

Patient Care Coordinators

Patient Care Coordinators (PCCs) are key to our business. This is a unique and highly visible frontline sales position. PCCs build relationships with physicians, their office staff, and other referral sources to earn the privilege of supporting their patients with quality home care services. PCCs also build relationships with their patients through in-home visits.

Okay, so there you have it. Now everyone is in "the loop" Are you all happy now?
The reason I haven't talked about this is cause Court gets mad when I talk about things before they happen. He has been interviewing with this company for the last few weeks and finally got the job. I wasn't "allowed" to blog about my excitement in case it didn't happen. Which totally makes sense, I was just so excited. I thought I had told you MarKey, but I guess we don't talk as much I think we do. We should work on that. He will start in about 3-4 weeks after all the "paperwork" is done. I am so proud of him and can't wait to see where this takes our family. (We hear we go to San Fransisco once a year?!?!)(And yes, my kitchen is still a big fat mess)

My Kitchen Today

This was actually last night. It's a little embarrassing how bad the insides look. I am taking the opportunity to clean and organize them without the doors on. It's much easier that way! Court said the doors won't be done till Tuesday so I'll post pictures then. Oh, and Shilo, we are NOT moving to Utah. If you moved HERE, I would be happy to let Court be bored at your house!!!

New Kitchen?

I had a Mary Kay event last night so Court stayed home with Hayden. I got home around 10:00 and walked in my front door and saw this..............
That can't be good..............Then I turned and looked in my kitchen..........
What is he up to now? I went to our bedroom where I found him watching t.v. He told me that he had decided to change out the cabinets. He is just going to lacker a new finish on the existing frame and make new doors at work. My question to him.......why put in a nice new kitchen in a condo we are about to put up for rent in a few months? His answer......I got bored. He didn't say that out loud, but I know that is the reason. I truly love my husbands wonderful talent and how hard he works, but what the crap?!?! We have lived here four years and he has done so much work on this place and decides now to do the kitchen!?!? I am never going to get out of this condo. I don't know what he is going to do when he isn't with Classy Closets anymore. Oh, did I forget to mention something? HE GOT THE JOB!!!!!!!!!!
(and yes I will post pictures of the final product when it is finished. hopefully next week.)

Laughlin 2008

Court's family vacations in Laughlin every year and we always have such a blast. We used to go a few times, but this year we just went once. Now some of you might be thinking "Laughlin? That's for old people who drink and gamble." Not us. This is what we did.

While waiting to meet up for dinner the first night, we went to the arcade and found Dino. Hayden was in heaven! He kept saying "I need money's" Then we walked the riverwalk for awhile
This picture is dark, but I really like it cause I think it's the only 4 generation picture that we have.
Sitting on Grandma Wendy's lap waiting for our food. Just a note, if you are ever in Bullhead City, DO NOT eat at Chili's. They we really nice, but SLOW as TAR. It was awful!!
Saturday: THE RIVER!!!!!
I wasn't sure that he would like the life jacket, but we told him that if he wanted to play in the water he had to wear it. No complaints!! He kept it on all day.


Swimming with Aunt Heidi

On the Jet Ski with Mom. Becky-it looks like we are out far but we really aren't, I promise. And I only went like 15 mph.
I would like to say this is the first picture of him on the jet ski, but it isn't. Court took him out when I ran back to the hotel to get his water shoes that I somehow forgot. I was so mad a Court for doing that and me missing it. I don't like to miss the "firsts" Aunt Sheri got pictures, so I will get to see it, but I wasn't there. But, on the bright side, this is the first picture of him on the jet ski with Me.
Just loungin.

Running in the water. He was falling when I took this picture. I thought it looked pretty cool.
That night we went to an arcade at a different hotel. We wanted to take him to the "kid kastle" at the Riverside hotel. We thought it was a play area, but it turns out it was a baby sitting place and we didn't want to leave him there. So we went to the arcade there.
He just loved putting the tokens in the machines and getting tickets.
Then, we went to the outlet mall. I'm glad we didn't take our stroller in because we walked in the door and he freaked out at this one. We were only there about 30 minutes, but it was worth the $2.
That night Hayden and I were on our own for dinner. We left the river a little early and everyone ate on their way back to the hotel. Court went to the casino(I know, he's going to hell) with his cousins, so Hayden and I hung out. We walked down the riverwalk and saw the fish and ducks. In one area there were 5 raccoons right on the shoreline. I took a picture cause they were so cute, but it was dark and it didn't turn out very well. We got to the Aquarius Casino and ate at Panda Express.
After our walk, Hayden wanted to watch "Lady and the Ramp" We were up so late that night because he took a late nap. It was so fun to hang out with him all night and play. I was sad that Court missed how fun he was. He is such a cute kid.

The next morning after breakfast, he ask Papa for some money to ride Dino before we went home. How cute is that face?!?!

Here he is with Papa feeding the fish even though signs were posted EVERYWHERE asking us not to.
And then he chased the pigeons on our way out. He was yelling "pigeons come here" It was so funny.
A big Thank you to all of Wendy's family who came and made it another unforgettable trip! We love you all!!

Meet George

Court decided awhile ago that he wanted a fish. I'm not sure why but he did. Those of you who helped with our wedding might remember that the only thing he wanted was fish in the center pieces on the tables. I didn't get it, but it was the only thing he asked for. Anyway, so he came home one day with a Betta fish. Whatever. So, Hayden has never really paid any attention to the thing until the other day. Court was cleaning the "bowl" and Hayden was watching. When Court finished, he put Hayden on the counter to get a closer look. Then Court realized that we had never "named" the fish. I seriously think we've had this thing a year or more. He started asking Hayden what we should name the fish and giving him suggestions. With every suggestion, Hayden would say no. Then Court said "what about George?" Hayden looked at me pointing at the fish, and with great excitement said "Mommy, this is George!" It was pretty cute. Court will ask him where George is and he runs to our room and points to him. He is so dang cute. So now you all have met "George" Also, I know that Betta's don't need things in their bowl, but once again, Court thought he needed a house and thinks "George" loves it, so there you go.

Boo Boy Bed

The day has come and my heart is broken. My baby is growing so fast. We have been having sleep troubles lately so we decided to do something different. Now, those of you who don't know my little angel don't know what a good sleeper he has been. He LOVED to go to sleep in his crib and would sleep through the night since about 5 months old. That all changed about a month ago. He started fighting his naps and bedtime and would sit in his crib and scream. He would wake up multiple times in the night and scream. We got a night light thinking that would help. We would leave his door open. It didn't work. He just didn't want to go to sleep. So, we took the railing off his crib and.........


He calls it his "boo boy bed" I'm not really sure why. He can say "big boy bed" but for some reason, he calls it boo boy. Whatever, I don't care, just as long as he sleeps.
Bed time was a success!! He went without a fight and stayed in bed all night.
The second night he did the same. We'll see from here, but I have gotten much more sleep the past two nights and feel great! Yeah Boo Boy Beds!!!
