What do you do on a hot December day?

Well if you're Jack Jack you go around the backyard shirtless while shoveling dirt with your mini shovel. :)





Also my B-day was Saturday and Marshall and Jack made it a great day for me. I love you guys! And thanks to everyone else who made it a good day for me too!

Escape Artist

Jack was caught trying to get out of the backyard. He sat by the back gate pulling on it and looking through the cracks and crying for about 15 minutes until I finally dragged him back inside.

Western University

Marshall just found out that he got accepted to Western University in Pomona, CA. We'll see if we end up with any other options, but we were so excited to at least be accepted to one school! We at least know he will start dental school in the fall of 2011!

Sad Story

I haven't posted in a long time because the day after Jack turned one and had his first birthday party, he lost our camera. I've been too sad to post about it, but now I'm over it and back on the blog. Jack is 13 months now (5 more months till nursery) and he is so much fun! Here are a few catch up pictures.

Family Pictures

My grandma took these pictures for us. Thanks grandma we love them! Even if Jack wasn't cooperating.

Cabin Trip

We took a spontaneous trip to Strawberry and Jack had a blast! He loves anything that has to do with being outside. Luckily it's cooling down so we can leave our house more often!

Yard Work

Don't worry Marshall... Jack has it all taken care of.

Little Einstein

Jack doesn't watch a whole lot of TV, but when I put in Baby Einstein he can't look away for anything!

What the hail?

Why is it hailing in Arizona in the middle of August?

Moccasins

I couldn't resist getting these!

A mixing spoon + A stack of pillows =

One happy 9 month old!



I love the things that kids have fun playing with! Why buy toys?

California Trip

This picture was from our Hamblin tennis tornament... that Marshall's parents always win... and I'm a little bitter about losing to them...





Last weekend we went to California with my family and we had a blast! Jack loved the beach and I think it was the best day of his life so far! We can't wait to go back!

Happy 4th!

It was a lot of firsts for Jack this weekend. His first D-Backs game... we lost 14-1 (pathetic, I know), his first 4th of July (go USA), his first cotton candy mustache (thanks to auntie Ames), and his first fireworks show(he didn't even get scared of the loud noise)! He pretty much LOVED all of it and we all had a great time! Happy 4th of July!

Sister Grant

Brooklyn got home from her mission on June 24th! The girls are all back together again! She loved her mission in the Philippines and had an amazing experience! Welcome home Brooklyn!

Buddies

Nate and Jack are starting to play with each other! They are going to have so much fun together!
