My First Haircut

Jayli has some insane hair!!! It is so unruly and think that she now gets a haircut about once a month. Her and Daddy both. She has done better the last couple of times with her haircuts but the first time she was to busy trying to figure out what I was doing behind her she wanted to see what was going on.

Snow Day


Jayli finally got a stab at good ole Evanston winters this year. She is finally old enough to go play in it. She loves to get all bundled up and going out to play while mommy or daddy shovels the walks. She gets so excited when we tell her to go get her snow pants and hat. She wasn't sure the first day but after that it is her favorite!

Family Update

Finally!!!!! Kayla has been working hard to recieve her CNA. On November 15th she passed her State Board of Nursing exam with flying colors. She is now working for Uinta Home Health and Hospice. She LOVES it. Sometimes the work itself is not the great but she loves her job.
Jayli hates it when mom leaves, but absolutely loves her sitter. Kelsi is a friend of ours whose husband works with Jorgen at the Jail and they have a little boy not much older than Jayli and she has a blast with little Chase. She comes home in the afternoon just exhausted! He does teach her a lot though. Kids learn best from other kids! She has learned what scrubs are and she gets upset everytime she sees me put them on in the morning. She has translated that style of clothing to relate to mom leaving. It is sad but at the same time good for her to go play with kids her own age and good for mom's sanity to get out of the house and make some money doing what she enjoys doing.
Jorgen is still at the Jail for a little over a year now and is very happy with where he is.
Jayli is just getting SOOO big. I can't believe it. One day her pants fit and the next we are at the store buying new ones that do! She is quite the talker and is full of energy. She is just all over the place all the time. She is our little climber and always independant. She won't let you feed her or even cut up her meals, she has to do it on her own. She is our little princess and loves to dance. The second you turn music on she is out the doing whatever she does.
Well that is us for now, we are headed into the holidays so there will be more excitement to follow.

Little Bunny Rabbit







Jayli had her first 'real' Halloween this year!!! She was a little bunny and was so stinkin cute. She loved it. She was a little confused at first, we took her the the community trick or treat and was a little weirded out about a bunch of people dressed funny in a dark building putting things in a bucket we made her carry. By the end of the night she figured out that it was candy that people were giving her and she now likes monsters and finds them hilarious!!! Now she is addicted to sugary snacks. Especially DumDums. Jorgen was giving out DumDums when we got home and she was mad that he was giving her suckers to other kids!!

Jayli is ONE!!!!!!






Our little angel is one all too soon. Mom is sad and didn't want to admit that her little princess was one ALREADY!!! Hard to believe it has already been a year. We had a fun celebration-family came from both sides of the family and we BBQ'd and had a fish theme cake. Jayli wasn't too sure about the cake though, she got scared and thought she was going to get into trouble for digging and smashing food, after all, any other circumstance, she does get into trouble for smashing food!!

Update

Well we finally got all moved in!!!! Kayla HATES moving reguardless but it went ok! Kayla is done with school for now, she just has to pass the board now to be a CNA. Over the next two years she will work on her prerequisites that she needs to apply to nursing school. She is a little excited, anxious and nervous all at the same time.
