Thanks KIM!

My friend made this cute outfit for Jade! We love it!! (she even made the leggings)

PONY TIME!

Ella had her 2nd birthday a couple of weeks ago..it was a pony party. here are some of the pics of Jade enjoying the party!!

DAN IS 28!

I can't believe he's 28!!! We are getting so old!

Happy Birthday DAN!!

We went out to Dan's favorite restaurants Black Angus to celebrate! We were hoping that Jade would sleep the whole time but she was wide awake and didn't want to miss the party. She is always a little angle when we are out in public. I think she just loves to look around and see everything new. The other night we went with Dan to a dinner with his boss and everyone he works with. I was so nervous because we were the only ones that brought a child. We were there for around three hours and she was perfect. She just sat in her carseat most of the time and looked around. After we left, she broke down and screamed the whole way home. That's what always seems to happen but we are lucky that she's great in public.

She really is such a good girl. She has been sleeping GREAT!!! 3 two hour naps and then she sleeps 10-11 hours straight at night. She loves her paci and her blankie. With both she will sleep good. It scars me because she loves to sleep with it covering her face. So i go in everytime and fix it. We have a video baby monitor which I totally remcommend. I always know if she's actually sleeping or I can tell when the blanket is covering her face too much. I just took this picture of her sleeping on the monitor

Jade is soo lucky to have cousins so close in age to her. They are all going to be
BEST FRIENDS!

Last Sunday was Jade and Claire's baby blessing in Utah. It was such a great day! Thanks to all my friends and family that came. I just realized that I didn't get any good up close pictures of Jade in her dress. I guess we will have to put it on again and take some. I loved her dress it's cream and pink! We had so much fun visiting family and meeting claire for the first time. And as you can see I chopped my hair. I swore that I wouldn't do it when I became a mom but I gave in. It was getting soo thin and Jade was always pulling it out and getting spit up in it. My family all talked me into doing it.

haha Sheridan!!

Dan's Family owns a condo in Park City and let my fam stay there for a few nights. We had lots of fun. We went on the alpine slides and the zip line. Then we all headed off to Sacramento. Both babies were great on the 10 hour drive.6 hours into the drive and claire is still smiling!

We took the kids to the zoo and to Fairytale town!!! I loved that place when I was little. I still loved to run the crooked mile!!

Enjoying the zoo!

We are glad to be home but miss the fam already!

4th of July and Utah

We just got back from Utah and had such a great time!! We were able to meet a lot of new family members. Josh our new brother in law, and max and john our new nephews. We were super busy with the wedding, the 4th, and John's baby blessing. I was also able to spend some time with my fam too! We were hoping that Nichole would have her baby while we were there and we tried everything. Jade went to her first movie and did great and slept the whole time on both plane rides. She was great the whole trip except she had a hard time breastfeeding.I think it was too loud and crazy. She is used to just us all day not going out and in Utah we were always on the go. She has been just fine now that we are back at home. She has been sleeping GREAT ever since I tried the sleep positioner which I highly recommend. One night I let her sleep in her car seat and she slept 6 hours. I think being propped up a bit helped her but I didn't want to get her in the habit of only sleeping in it. So I borrowed Carrie's sleep positioner and she slept 6.5 and then 4.5 hours and I bought the same one that next day. I can totally tell the difference and think everyone whose baby is only sleeping 3-4 hours should get one! I included a pic of her sleeping on it.

Jade is now 6 weeks and I can't believe it. Nichole had her baby yesterday and just looking at the pics make me realize how much Jade has grown. Sorry to everyone in Utah that we weren't able to see but we will be there in 3 weeks for her blessing and will have lots more time.
