Jordins Blessing 9-12-08

For Jordins blessing we drove out to Provo, UT. The reason why we went to Utah to bless her was so we could share this special day with some family. (There was also a BYU football game that weekend too:) Jason's mom and dad came from Washington and we stayed with Nate, Lynlee, Cami and JR. We had a great weekend. First we went to my favorit place, Costa and had lunch. Then we all met up at the BYU book store to get some more BYU things. Then we had the blessing and then we went to dinner. The next day was the game and we all put on our BYU clothes. YEP! Everyone had on BYU clothes. You just have to when they are doing so well. The score was 59 BYU to a big fat ZERO UCLA. Then after the game we all went back and just hung out and enjoyed just being around each other. FUN TIMES, we love being with our Family. It's hard being so far away from family. So when we get together we always have a great time. Here are some pictures from that weekend.

Our Dear sweet Jordin Elizabeth Price. We are so blessed to have her in our life. We thank the lord everyday for blessing us with her. She looked so beautiful in her blessing dress. This will be a day we never forget.

Jason gave such a wounderful blessing. Jordin cryed durning the whole thing, but we could still hear what Jason was saying.

Jordins handsome Big brother, Jaden. Yeah, he is going to get all the girls. I also can see all of Jordins little friends being like 'your brother is so cute!' LOL!


We had alot of fun at our Dinner.






Future BYU Students!!!!


Jordin was being so serious when playing on her play mat.

The drive home is always nice.

Jaden always likes to play around with my sun glasses.


The kids really do travel well. Some times Jaden is like 'how many more hours or are we there yet or how much longer or are we in Utah yet?' It's kind of fun to tell him different answers over and over. He's so cute! Jordin just likes to eat and sleep in the car.



This is what we see! It's fun to see all the different rock formations and lakes.






This was a really great weekend and we can't wait till we get to go again. Thanks everyone for a great time.

Just some updates

Last week was a a fun one. Jordin had her two month check up. Here's the before picture. She was all happy and ready to go.



Then came the shots.


She only cried for about two or three minutes and then she was fine. The rest of the day she just kind of slept and wanted to be held. She weighs about 10 lbs and she was about 23 inches long. So since birth she has gained about 3lbs and she has grown about 2 1/2 inches. I don't really know where on the growth chart that is because they didn't show me and I forgot to ask. They do things alittle different here at the Indian Hospital where Jason works. I'm really not suppose to go there but because Jason works there I can. It takes a long time to see someone. My appointment was at 9:30am and I got out of there at noon. It was a long wait. But the Doctors are great so it's worth it.

Last night was a great night. Last week I ordered her crib and it said it would take about a week or two to get here. The great UPS man dropped it off yesterday. So when Jason got home from work he started putting it together. It looks so great and I can't wait to get her room all set up!!




Poor little Jordin has been sleeping in her car seat and her little pink seat since she was born. I have felt so bad for the past few weeks because she is getting bigger and the seats just looked like they kept getting smaller. So when the crib came yesterday I was happy. She slept so great in it!! She only woke up once at about 4am to eat. She also went down at about 8:30pm which was great. As for one night in the crib, it was great for all of us!!!! Lots of sleep!



OK! Now here's the big question. We have been living with theses fun, I mean gross looking bugs. What are theses? Does anyone know. I sent an email to my dad to see if he knows, but if you do let me know. The people around here have told me all sorts of names for it, but they are just wrong and ugly looking bugs. I don't know what they do or if they can hurt you. I am still looking on the internet to find out. if you know of any good web pages about these things, let me know.! All I know is that when you step on them they make a pop sound and all this gross stuff comes out of them. Fun times if you step on one with no shoes. That hasn't happen yet and I really don't want it too.

Pictures with Jordin

Here are some of the great people that our little Jordin has met over the past few weeks. She has met alot of her new family and friends.


Grandpa Greg came to stay with us for a few days.

Uncle JR looks so cute with baby girl!

Nana Patty came to stay with us for the first two weeks we were out here. It was hard to see her go, she was alot of help! Thanks mom.

Papa Price and Jaden. We met up with Jason's family at the BYU bookstore and this was the first time that papa price got to see Jordin.

Nana Anna too was at the game.

Angela and Jen are some great friends of mine from High school that were driving through Gallup. so we met up for lunch. Funny story! No cell phone says it all :)

Brent, Uncle Nate, Aunt Lynlee and her brother Taylor just hanging out with the baby

This is Jordins new Play toy. She loves it!!


Great Grandma Sikora came down with Grandpa Greg. It was really nice to see them both and for them to see where we are living.


There will be many more pictures to come. It takes along time for them to download because the Internet is slow here. But I will try to keep up!!
We love you all!

What goes on!

I forgot to post this when I wrote it a few weeks ago.

Well, our trip to Utah was great. It felt like we were gone for a week. We loved it. The drive is only about 7 hours and the kids did great. Here's a few fun facts about the drive.
1st, we left at about 5pm and didn't eat anything before we left, so we were just going to find the next McD's, but there is no McD's between here and Moab. So that was about 3 1/2hours away. We thought that was funny.
2nd, you really do have to be careful when driving out here so you don't hit a cow, dog, horse, person or whatever else is out there in the middle of no where.
3rd, we stopped at a gas station to get a drink and there were no straws for the drinks, so note to self, when driving to Utah from here bring straws if you want a fountain drink.
The 4th thing about driving to Utah is that land is very pretty to look at. The rocks and cliffs and mountains are very pretty and lastly the stars at night are so big. When we got to Moab it was really dark out and all the stars where out. Jaden loved looking at all the big stars. His favorite thing was the big dipper. he knew what that was and kept saying look I see it again and there it is again. He was so excited to see it!!

So now here are the reasons we love to go back to Utah.

1st we love to see our family and friends. Jason's brother Nate and his wife Lynnlee and his sister Cami and her husband JR live there. The fun thing is they both live in the same townhouse. so we get to stay with them both.
2nd things is, we love BYU football. Jason went to school there and has always loved the team. Jason and Jaden went to the game but it got to hot so I picked up Jaden and lynnlee about half way through the game. I didn't get to go because I didn't want to bring Jordin. It was really too hot for her.
3rd we have to eat at our favorite place that are only in Utah. Like Wingers and Costa. we always go there. I make sure that we go to Costa and Jason makes sure we go to Wingers. He loves there wings.
4th I love to go shopping and because we don't live by anything great to shop at, I go shopping while they are all at the game. Jason doesn't really like that Idea but Jaden needed some new clothes and I just love to find great deals.

So after we came back from Utah, My friends Angela and Jen where driving to Queen Creek, AZ and they passed through Gallup. So I went up there to meet them. The funny thing is I don't have a cell phone and I told them to meet me at the McD's there in town, well I thought that there was only one McD's but I was wrong. There are three. So I was at one and they were at the other for about 30min until they called the McD's that I was at and then I drove to the one they were at. that sucked because we only got to talk for a short time. It was really good to see them both.

This next week will be fun. My Dad and grandmother are going to be coming to see us Monday-Thursday and then we leave again for Utah on Thursday. We are going to bless Jordin and there is anther BYU game. so it's going to be a fun next week. As long as there is something to look forward too I think that I will not go nuts anymore. It's hard being out here, but it's only for a few years and we will have to make it fun with lots of little trips and fun outdoor activities. As long as our little family is together we are good!!!

We gotta Keep The Faith!
