Drake at 18 Months

 My little boy is growing so fast.  He is so hard to take pictures of anymore, simply because he hates looking at the camera.  But he is super cute!  He has a total of 9 teeth 6 in the front and 3 molars.  He loves anything that is bad for you, like fried food and sugar.  He is so good at making his sister laugh, they just giggle together.  I love to try and take pictures of him, occasionally I get a few good ones.   Love you Drake.

He is going to beat you up!

mom, I'm too old for this

HE LOVES OUTSIDE

looking out the window and dreaming of going outside

He likes to take off his cloths and diaper...too smart

sometimes he will actually smile at you, cheesy

he steals his sisters binky, only to steal it

Really?  U are taking MORE pictures?

Dressed to go outside.

Not sure why he was sucking his thumb.

RUNNING WILD

yay, for playing outside

At his Dr. Appointment he was 21 pounds 8 ounces, 31.5 inches long and 21 inches around his noggin.  He is still little for his age, but he has been hungry a lot and his teeth have stopped coming in, so maybe we can get some more meat on those bones.  

I can't believe how big he is getting.  Love you Mr. Drake

A New Temporary Camera

Our replacement camera is not exactly the camera of my dreams.  It works and does an okay job.  I got it on clearance at wal-mart for 35 bucks, you can't beat the price.  But blue isn't my favorite color :( It has 10 pixels (yay) and a mirror on the front to help me take pictures of myself (YES) so for now I am happy.  Someday I will get a very nice camera, and I hope it  doesn't end up in the water like the last (shaking my head) kids.

I am not sure if it is good or bad that it is TINY.  It is the smallest camera I have ever held...it is a easyshare mini after all.  But it is small so I am afraid I will lose it or something dumb.  

BIG UNKNOWN

Kade got a new job... details later.

We are most likely moving due to the job change... EEK 

We don't know where we will live.  RENT? BUY? MOVE IN WITH OTHERS?

Unsure of what to do with our half finished home.  Sale? Rent?

And as far as my job and school, yeah not sure what I will be doing there.  Will I travel, transfer, or put it off?

I feel kind of lost right now, I hate the waiting period.  Where you just have to be patient and let thing work themselves out.  Too many unknowns and ifs in this situation.  I am excited for out new adventure and its outcome.  Just a little nervous and anxious about the journey to get there.

Memorial Day 2012

Kade had to work...BOOO.

But we did get to pause and have a picnic lunch as a family at the park.  

We took the kids in the pull behind stroller for the first time.  Addyson slept and Drake loved being outside, as usual.  

Later that day, after Kade worked some more, Kade met with a guy in Terreton.  You could call the meeting a job interview.  Looks like we might be relocating.  SCORE!

Suzi Q

Originally this post was going to be basically pictures.  But then there was an exciting event that took place last night, so I am going to write about it even though it isn't about me.  Suzi is my best friend, we were really tight in high school and have actually stayed friends through it all.

May is a busy month.  My mother's birthday is the 1st and then there is mothers day.  Suzi's birthday is the 16th, followed by my mother-in-laws on the 17th, followed by Kade's on the 18th.  I would say by far it is the most celebrated month. 

Suzi came down and helped celebrate Kade's birthday and we went out to eat and caught up on life.  She caught me up on her boyfriend Joe. 

 Then last night she sent me a text with this picture.

  

I called her to make sure it was for real.  Joe is moving to Utah to go to school pretty soon, so I thought they were going to date long distance.  But apparently he didn't want her to get away, so he proposed.  She told me they are planning on getting married around January....but that is tentative. 

  On another note, I have not met this man, so I am a little anxious to.  I need to make sure he is good enough for my little Suzi :D

Anyway, Congratulations you two crazy love birds.

Joseph & Suzie soon to be Bosteder

Not going to lie, I am not sure how to say his last name, HAHA

Here is the rest of my post, where I was just going to show pictures of me and my best friend.

Fishy Face

Trying to look serious, didn't  work LOL

Tongue and Fat Face

TEETH

My piano only gets played when Suzi comes over...But Drake needed to help

This is what you always catch her doing...TEXTING

Old pictures from high school

I love you girl.  Can't wait to see you in white. 

Date Night

This date night started off as work.  Kade asked if I would help him take pictures so he could get off of work sooner.  We asked my mom to watch the kids and we headed to Pokie to work.  After we got done Kade took me to dinner, and I was excited to go to a place my family visited a lot when we lived there.  I lived in Chubbuck until I was 14, so I have some preferences when it comes to restaurants.  

I made Kade take us to Johnny B Goodes.  It is a 50's style restaurant, a burger joint.  To me it is fun to escape and go to a different time.  I love this place because it is so cute and the food is super good, especially their milkshakes.  

It was a fun time.  There is a restaurant in Idaho Falls called Dixie's Dinner and it is also 50's style and really cute.  Kade and I have been there a few times and it reminded me of this place.

Kade wants me to get it on my face

mahah to bad

GOT ME

Thanks again mom for watching my cute kids. 

Addyson's First TOOTH

Only a few days after Addyson turned 5 months, a tooth popped up!  Okay not exactly popped, it was kinda hard on my little one.  I was glad when I found out she was getting teeth, because she was SO grouchy and whinny all the time.  Fevers and ear infections were very common at our house for the last few weeks, so hopefully she is over that for a while.   I am praying she will overall start to feel better.
