Jaden lost his tooth and Jordin is 1 week old!




Wow! The first week with our new little Jordin has gone by fast. She loves to sleep, eat and poop all the time. Oh yeah, she also likes to keep us up at night. Everyone in Village Green has been so great by bring us dinners. I think it's really lunch for us since we have been sleeping in really late. Jaden gets to go to a summer activity at his school from 10am to 4pm durning the week, so he is well taken care of there and we don't have to worry about what he is doing. All his friends are there with him as well. Jaden was so happy to have lost his first tooth this past monday. He was brushing his teeth and the next thing ya know he was all happy because he saw his tooth in the sink. He couldn't stop smiling. He is really turing into a big boy. He was so happy that he got $2 from the tooth fairy. Wow, i only got 25cents back in the day. Prices have gone up :) LOL! Well, we still don't know when the big move day is but we know it will be before august 1st. we hope!!!

Baby Jordin Elizabeth Price




Our dear sweet baby girl is here. We feel so blessed to have her in our life. Our little family of three has been waiting for this for a long time. It's been a very long road getting her here and now we are a family of four. We named her Jordin Elizabeth. We loved the name Jordin and her middle name comes from my late grandmother Helen Elizabeth. We just knew that this was her name when we saw her. Everything went really well durning the delivery. It was a long day but it was all worth it. We got started at 6am on july 8th and she came at 12:05am on july 9th. We got to come home from the hospital on Friday. She weighed 7lbs 2.9oz and was 20 1/2inches long. We think that she has blue eyes and she looks alot like Jaden when he was a baby. We love her and still can't believe that she is here. It doesn't feel real because we all have been wanting her here with us for a long time. We kept our faith in the lord and he blessed us with this sweet little miracle. Jaden and Jordin are truly blessings to Jason and I.

4th of July Fun!

This 4th of July was a very laid back day. It was so nice just to hang out at home and kind of do nothing. I did some fun projects that I have been working on and then washed some of baby girls clothes and blankets. Jason just played video games and Jaden played outside with his friends. We had a great family dinner and then Jaden wanted to do some fireworks. So we did a few and then waited till it got darker to do some more. Jaden had so much fun with all the fun fireworks that we got. I think that we started lighting them at about 8pm and didn't get done until 11pm. We watched the big firework show that took place at the baseball field and then did the rest of ours. It was a great time with just the three of us!!! We love being together. Soon it will be the four of us :) Here are some fun pictures from the 4th

Indiana Jones Birthday party


Well it's was that time of year again. Jaden is turning 6. I can't believe it!! Time is going by so fast. This year we Had a great little party on July 2nd. It also turned out to be one of Jadens good friend Hunters birthday too. So Kellie (hunters mom) and I put together a little party for the two of them. This really made things easier on me because I am going to have the baby in about 5 more days and Kellie Just had twins about three weeks ago. So it was nice to share all the party planning. It went really well!



The Theme for the party was Indiana Jones. We just went and saw the movie a few weeks ago and Jaden loved it. Some times you can hear him humming the theme song. It's so funny!!! The party was fun. Kellie did the games and the kids had a great time. They did an obstacle course and then they went on a treasure hunt around Village Green. We had pizza and then cup cakes with worms on them. I think that Jaden and Hunter had a great birthday Party.



Happy Birthday Jaden and Hunter


This was part of the obstacle course




The Village Green Treasure Hunt!



Jaden and Hunter opening gifts with some of their friends






Thanks for coming to Jaden and Hunters party and for all the fun gifts!

The Storm That Changed Village Green

Yesterday at about 4:45pm we heard the tornado warnings going off. The kids were still out playing and we all just kind of looked at each other like what storm. Then someone came out and said that we were going to get hit by a storm with 90 mph winds and that we should get in the house. so we all got the kids round up and the bikes put away and just as we were done Jaden and I were looking out the window watching the clouds roll in. I was trying to tell Jason to come and look and he was like whatever, once you've seen a storm there all the same. Not this one!!!! This, by far, was one of the worst storms we have been through here in Omaha. The power went out about 5:07pm and then it all came down all once. There was hail, wind, rain, things were flying all over the place and we couldn't even see out the windows. Jason and I hurried and got some stuff to take in the basement because we thought for sure that something was going to happen. But then of course, we went back up stairs and started to look out our front window to see what was going on. That's when the wind went crazy and blew down all the trees that were in our front drive. After that we went back into the basement, waited a few minutes and then we went back up to see if it stopped. Then it was just raining really hard. still no power! so after about 30 minutes I went out to see what happened, WOW, there were so many trees down and everyone started coming out to see what went on. Then everyone started to clean up because the road was blocked and it wasn't safe. We were just about to start dinner when this all happened so since the power was out we went to go see what was open to eat. I needed food so bad. Then after that we went to see if the movies were playing and they were open, so we went to see the Hulk at 10pm. Jaden thought that it was a great movie. So all in all it was a very fun filled night. When we got home there was still no power and it was time for bed.
Here are the pictures that I took off the after math of the storm! This was some crazy stuff for good old V.G. But everyone pulled together to help clean up and made sure that no one was hurt. Which there was nothing to report! Just a lot of trees that will be gone forever.


Jaden , Hunter and Tanner enjoyed watching the
the guys chop up the big tree that fell at the park!

The missionaries were at someones house for dinner
and they even came out and helped with the clean up!

The back parking lot drain was full of leaves and
sticks from the trees, so Jason got out there and cleaned
up the drains!
Jaden thought that it was pretty cool to be
out in the rain after it all happened.

It was really a big mess. The kids thought it
was fun to watch Jason clean up and also to play in
water!
Just some more trees at the play
ground that were down! Lots of clean
up to do!

This was a big tree that almost took out someones
town home. It only took out some wires. Nothing
else but lots of clean up!

Here are the trees that fell down in the street in
front of my town home. We had three really nice trees
That are now no more.
This is the tree that was just outside my front
door. Most of it went into the street but the trunk
and a few big branches are still there. but you can see
where it broke off.
We are so blessed that no one was hurt and that there wasn't to much damage to the houses. We just got our power back on at about 1:50pm today. Village Green is really a great place to live, so many people were out helping clean up and they all worked together to get it done fast. We will miss it when we move on to our next little adventure in life. Still no baby, I am sure that we will be seeing her when she is due. But right now she's happy were she is for about week and three days. We will post when she is here in our arms.

Life with the Price's

Well, I think that I might have gotten this whole blog thing down now. Now we will just have to see if I post or not! Well here's a few things to know about us. In about two weeks we are going to have our baby girl. Still not sure on her name, but we are still working on that. Jaden can't wait to meet her and boy does he have lots of questions on how she is going to come out!! not sure if I want to tell him at the good old age of soon to be six in July!!! Yeah the funny thing about Jaden and his little sister is that their Due dates were the 15th and the 16th of July. I still think it's funny!

Jason starts his Job with the IHS in August. So right after we have the baby we will be moving two weeks later to a little place in AZ. Can't wait! Then We will start our new life! NO MORE SCHOOL!!!! That's going to be nice!!!! Well, here's some pictures! I'll post more soon!
