5 months old!!

Wow! Time is going by so fast. Jordin is now 5 months and she is learning and doing new things each day. Here are a few things that she likes to do!




On Thanksgiving day she found her tongue. She just started to stick it out every time she smiled at you!! If she met someone new, she would give them a big smile with her little tongue sticking out! So cute! She now chews on it and just loves to stick it out and make funny sounds with it!




She loves to try and put her whole hand in her mouth and gets mad when it won't all go in! She also loves to look at herself in the mirror when she is trying to do this!

She likes to spend alot of time on her play mat. She is rolling all over, so we really have to watch her to make sure that she doesn't end up on the cold floor. (We don't have any carpet)





This was a day she took a nap. She doesn't really like to take naps during that day. She sleeps pretty good during the night but still wakes up about 2-3 times a night. It all depends. Jordin will always be our little sleeping beauty! (I just love sleeping babies, they are just so cute!!)





She is enjoying tasting new foods. The green peas didn't go over to well, but she sure loves her bananas.

We just love this little girl!

Ok!! So, I think that she looks like a doll that I use to have. Can anyone guess what doll that might be. I am sure that we all had one at some point!!

Jaden had so much fun putting together his little gingerbread house. I also think he liked the way the frosting tasted.








Jaden is such a great help with Jordin in the car. We went to Farmington last weekend. We thought that it only took an 1 1/2, but it took us about 2 1/2 hours. Next time we are just going to go to the big city!

Happy Birthday Dad

Happy Birthday Dad! This is your blog birthday card. Since I don't have a mail box out my front door, I forgot to run to the post office to send a card. so I thought that this would be a fun way to say Happy birthday! We want you to know that we love you and all the crazy things that you do.. Thanks again for coming out to the Rez to see us. I enjoyed the company more then you know! We are happy to have you in our life. It's always fun to come to your farm and play with all the animals. Jaden has learned that his love for horses will never go away. I think that he gets that from me and you I can't wait to bring little Jordin out to ride the horses and see all the fun things there is to see. We love you and we hope that your day is a great one! Don't work to hard. Take a break and have some cake. Love you!

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is a time to be thankful. I am very thankful for all that I have. My sweet children, Jason, Jason's job( even though the job is on the rez), my family (wish I could see them more), and I am also very thankful for the gospel in my life.

Thanksgiving this year was spent here on the Rez. I wish that we could have had some family to share this fun holiday with, but I guess we just always live to far away:( Someday, we will be close to our families. Not much went on. Jaden had a few days off but Jason had to work. So on wednesday, Jaden wanted to start putting up the christmas things. So I said ok and we started to put the tree up. Jaden pretty much did the whole tree by himself. What a great little helper. Then on Thanksgiving day we just hung out and didn't really do much. The weather was cold and it started to snow alittle, but not much to stay on the ground. We went over to Tylers house (Jason works with him) about 5pm had dinner and then came home. On friday it was nice to sleep in and not have to worry about going shopping or anything crazy. Almost everyone I talked too went shopping really early. we do all our shopping online now that we live so far from everthing. But I think when we move off the rez, I think that we will still do most of our shopping online. There are great deals and we don't have to pay shipping or we don't have to deal with all the people to get into lines. LOL! Don't get me wrong, i love to shop! I think that's what I do best! Jason's wallet may not like it, but boy is it fun! Well, now it's time to get ready for Christmas. This year we will be here on the Rez. Jason has to work again. That's what happens when you are the last one hired. LOL!!
