Okay, I am really sorry for not posting in soooo long!! WE MOVED!! YEAA!! We finally have our own place and have enjoyed being first time home owners! We have been busy painting, changing door knobs, cleaning, organizing, decorating, taking numerous trips to DI and everywhere else, losing a week because our sweet little family got the flu, safe guarding our house for our baby, etc. We are still in Henderson (of coarse). A quick update on our family...
Aurianna- started KINDERGARTEN at Gordon McCaw and loves her teacher, Mrs. Kofford. Even though she fights me about going to school in the morning, by the afternoon she is ready and waiting to head to class. She is headstrong and loves to argue with her daddy. I'm thinking a major debater in the future! We love her strength and willingness to learn. She is a HUGE help for me and the other 2. I feel so blessed!
Aniston- was supposed to start preschool but, I (mom) was a huge slacker and forgot to get the ABC Etc. Packet from VVRC. Needless to say, she is not in preschool this year but will definitely be going next year. She is very excited and talks about it all the time. She is our little suck-up! It's pretty funny. Whenever Auri gets in trouble for doing something she is not supposed to, Ani's reply is usually, "I'n not doing that Dad. I'n being good." She is a burst of energy and keeps me on my toes! We love her laugh and her fun personality.
Ammon- is walking and trying to run. He has already fallen down the stairs a couple of times (sorry that you had to be there for that one Kim!) It breaks my heart when that happens. He loves to climb in and out of his car seat, loves his new highchair and has the cutest laugh you will ever hear in your life. He absolutely LOVES his big sisters! They play so well together! He is growing way too fast for me but I am excited for the memories we will make when he's older. Future Volleyball player in Mom's eyes. Future Hockey player (or soccer) in Dad's eyes. We love him!
Jesse and I- We are attending the Temple as often as possible to get some stress relief from our everyday lives. IT HAS WORKED!!! We have received peace and organization along with better spirits towards each other and our kids. Jesse has received answers to prayers and has had to make some pretty hefty decisions! He is still working at Timet in the Chlorination department and I am still at home with the kids. The one job I've always wanted! (Thanks to my HOT husband!) Jesse chose to take the rest of this semester off and next from school, due to a blow up he had on one of his professors. (Stress maybe??) Even though it has prolonged his graduation, we both feel he really needed this little break. We love our new home, new ward We miss the old one and all the friends we made, we love you all and are very excited to make new friends! Anyone and everyone is welcome to come visit, call, email or even leave a comment! We love comments! We love family and friends! Thanks to everyone who helped us move (Clint and Jeremy, we still owe you IHOP) we could not have done it without you! Sheldon, thank you for helping Jesse with the Garage Door opener, your a PEACH!! Ben for the great job you did on our living room fan and to your sweet wife (thanks Jen) for letting you come over and help us! We love you guys! I am so thankful for the gospel and for my husband. I love him with all of my heart. He's blessed our family with the Priesthood and I am thankful for his willingness to honor it. He gave Aurianna a Father's blessing before school started, (a tradition we will definitely continue with all of our kids), and it was awesome. The spirit was so strong! I am so proud of him! WHAT A MAN!!! I can't help but hear the tune of "Count your Many Blessings!" I'll stop there!
We will post pictures later but for right I am EXHAUSTED!
Good Night!

'bout time you got back online! :) Can't wait to see pictures (even though I see you pretty often). Thanks for dropping stuff off to me today and taking some of my DI stuff too... you're a PEACH. haha. :)
YEAH! i am so happy that you guys are moved in and doing so well. BOO! because we miss you, but thank goodness that you are not to far away. we want to come see your new pad:) I agree with Aurianna...I too love Mrs. Kofford. Isn't she the best:)
It's so fun having a house...congratulations!! Your family is adorable. I hope all is well.
I'm so glad you guys are settled and having your own place is the best.
I know how you feel about kids taking a tumble down the stairs. I just happened to see Mack the first time he fell and the look on his face and just knowing how scared he was in the moment was the worst feeling.
As you probably know, I was in the ward you are in for a little while and I quite liked it, so I hope you guys enjoy it there.
I hope things continue to go well for you guys!
Hi Guys,
I'm glad I'm not the only that hasn't been blogging for awhile. But you have a much better reason than I do.
We miss seeing you every week in church. Glad you're doing well.

Shannon,
I saw your blog on Michelle's blog! It was cool to check out what your family is up to. COngrats on being a homeowner. It's the best. Where do you live now-downtown Henderson? What street. The kids look so cute!
The slideshows are great too...I love Disneyland.
Thanks for leaving a message on my blog! We live in my parent's house right now and have been wanting to move for about a year. We bought a house and backed out... long story... and now we're bidding on another. We'll still live in Henderson or LV. Depending on if we get this house or not! I'm ready to move and stop looking for one!! It's gotten boring. :) Glad to see you've started posting again!
