SHE'S 1!!!





"what do we have here?"


"I think I could get use to this"


"gettin the hang of it"

You know when she is done when she starts to throw it off the sides..

the finished product.. I would say it was pretty successful!


WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!








My favorite of her pics..She is always playin with her tongue and always stickin it out and tries to lick EVERYTHING..... so I was so glad when I caught this on camera cause it describes her so much!


Lookin out at the sheep comin home from takin pics:)
Lots of pics? You betcha.... I wanna remember this day forever! I can't believe she is 1 already... I can and I can't at the same time... We celebrated her birthday on Sunday so everyone could make it.. It was so fun watchin her eat her little cup cake adn devour into it... THAT'S MY GIRL! She got lots of fun presents and i'm  so glad cause she was gettin so sick of the few toys that she had and elmo just wasn't cuttin it anymore.. She got some cute clothes from my Aunt Sharon and Stacia and my mom and dad gave her the cutest little coat that has the cinderella carriage on the front and cute pants and shirt to go with it.. We gave her a couple outfits and I made her this "about me" book that I'm so happy how it turned out. We also gave her this way cute Alphabet train thing. The great grandparents gave her money. She got these cutest puppets from her cousin. She also got a glow worm from hunter/hallee/carson which she loves by the way... and Diane and Allen gave her that cute car that is pictured above..i'm so excited about this! Its so fun to take pais around in it and she loves to stand up and ride in it.. Thanks everyone who came and supported our sweet Pais.. I love birthdays and this is just 1 of many to come.
Our dearest Pais :
Daddy and I cant believe your already 1. Your first year flew by so so fast. You have taught us so much in your little life. It has been so fun to watch you grow these past 12 months. You are the biggest ray of sunshine and always are makin us laugh. We love it when you babble in the mornin in your crib waitin for us to come get you. You said your first real word the other day.. Doggy it was..except it sounds moure like uggy... which doesnt suprise me cause you have had your eyes on animals since you could see. I love the way that you tease us in your own little way. You are the smartest thing I have ever met. We cant wait to see what this next year will bring us with you. You amaze us everyday and even though you are a mommys girl at the same time you are the biggest daddys girl and you LOVE IT when your daddy comes home. Thank you for bringin us such happiness that we could know. We love you our sweet P!! Happy 1st birthday!

1st Halloween











This holidays was Pais's last 1st of something. Its kinda sad but it only means she has a lot more of life to live..  I was so excited to get her all dressed up and go trick or treating. We didn't take her door to door this year but we did go visit Nana and Grandparents Dyreng and Grandma Lois out at the care center. It was so fun to see everyone else and what they were dressed up as. I love this holiday! Pais was a little witch and the costume that she wore was my families dog , Mollie, her outfit. It fit her so cute.. She hated the hat but managed to keep it on for pictures which is all I ask. She hated gettin her face painted but I just had to sneak my finger up by her face and go to down... by the time we got to Gunnison she almost smeared it all off but oh well. It was a successful Halloween and Im on the countdown for next Halloween.. Hope every one had a fun Halloween! 
p.s. some of you might ask why I dressed up again? I wasn't goin to when I woke up but then throughout the day I was really wanted to rock blue eyeshadow and red bright lipstick so I thought I would be an 80s girl.. I sure wish I lived in this era...haha
p.s.s I also have to say I'm kickin myself alittle bit today. Yesterday (halloween) I got a phone call while I was talkin to my dad.. I didn't get to it in time and so I called them back right after. I had said that I got a miss call from them and they hung up. I thought it was a scam cause I have been having people call me later from wells fargo but they really arent. So  2 hours later I listen to the message and the guy had given me a different number to call.. I was to late though. It was Scott from Jay Leno.. the same guy that had called me 3 years ago to invite me to be on the Battle of Jaywalk. He said he needed me to call him ASAP but mind you this was 2 hours later and he had already gotten a hold of Paige ( the other mormon girl that was on with me)... So anyways I was so sad that I didn't listen to that message.. I could have been in LA this morning filmin another Jaywalk..even though I said I would never go back.. I had such a great time and would go back in a heart beat. Maybe its for the better I didn't thought.. you never know:) Be on the lookout for Paige though:)

BEST HALLOWEEN EVER!!


For some reason I cant find the picture that I took of Kera and Adam..they were dressed in AWESOMENESS! 




This will be a Halloween that I remember FOREVER! Kera wanted to have a party..so we did at my house! For a party that was thrown together in a couple of days.. we sure had a blast! I'm so glad we did it! When everyone got here we sat down and ate..we  had bread bowl and I made chicken and rice soup and everyone else brought dips and dessert. It was so yummy! Whats a party without great food though right? After we ate we split into groups and went on a picture scavenger hunt..this was HILARIOUS!! we had such a fun group and we thought we had won but we came in 2nd...i cant wait to do a scavenger hunt again:) Then when we got back to my house we started the games. The first game we played we got off of the movie "Just go with it" ..I love it! You get a balloon and you start at your belly button and then you had to get it up between both necks without using your hands..its harder then it looks. The next game we played was with donuts. You have to be the first one to get it in your mouth between the 2 peoples. So the trick is is to just stuff it in your mouth and not try to eat it or swallow... we were all so full so some of us were like dry heaving after words..it was so fun! The last game we played was called the NEWLYDEAD GAME..we played this for probably 2 hours and it was so fun.. Its just like the newlywed game so we had to guess what the other one said about us or them... it was so fun to get to know people better and to see people come out of their shells... We also voted for best costume..and guess who won?? ME! Jake and I were dressed up as Jakes grandpa Jack and I was Grandma Lois..jake always comes up with the best ideas and he thought since we were livin in their house and have access to their clothes that we should be them... and so we were and it was so fun!. Hope everyone has a fun Halloween tonight! Jake and I cant wait to take Pais out in her cute little costume..1st Halloween!

11 months

 Lo
Love love love these 2 pics.... I actually took them this morning as "the workers" ( i musnt say what we usually call them) were rakin up our leaves outside..i will have to admit it was really hard to refrain but jumpin in the mountain of leaves..instead i through pais in the pile..and she was loving it..for about 1 second is all though..she made a mad dash out of there..i'm so glad i caught this smile of her with her 2 little wee teeth showin..aren't they so cute?

Things to remember bout 11 months:
.. Cant believe she is already 11 months..where did my baby go?
..she is such a good eater and opens her mouth big when the spoon is about to enter..
..She has 2 teeth comin in the top but its the side ones not the front ones..man was that a killer gettin those babies to come through
.. She has takin a few steps but just that once...everynow and then she will take 1 or 2 but its kinda a hop still but real close...
..She LOVES water...if she only knew how to use the sippy real good ( workin on it)
..she has been sayin mama a lot more now :)
..blabbers so much now and its the cutest thing ever.. especially when she cries hahaha
..has an ear infection in both ears and its been so sad seein her go through such pain (along with the teeth)
..Still loves pets and does this really excited noise the moment she spots them and she will kick her legs so fast
..i took her out in the stroller the other day out walkin and thank goodness I decided not to take the long route cause she was not having it..she is still warmin up to the idea of a stroller..i wish she liked it more.
.. she loves to go down carsons little slide even if she goes down sideways
..she has a smile that both melts Jake and mine's heart ( cause those 2 little teeth shine through)
..Has been a good napper lately.. takes 2 a day..usually 2 hours in the morning..hour and half in the afternoon..
..Loves to dance:)
..Loves music
..Loves her "p is for princess Elmo video and would watch it all day if i would let her ( ill admit..sometimes when i'm on a cleanin mode and cleanin out stuff she has watched it all day...Please dont' turn me in:(
..Loves to talk on the phone
.Loves jumpin on the bed..
..LOVES CLIMBING THE STAIRS..mostly at my parents house cause there downstairs is the main living area and so the stairs are really easy to get to.. While their this past weekend i couldnt find her for a minute and she had crawled all the way up and was playin in the play room up there..THANK GOODNESS she didn't fall!
..When she goes to climb up their stairs she usually will wait on the 2nd step and wait for someone to look at her and when you give her that look she is out of there..kinda like she is playin hide and seek..makes me laugh everytime:)
..sometimes her diaper will get caught in her crack and thats usually when she will have a big blow out..not cool pais..
..This is another story that some of you may not want to know but while I was home she loves to stick her tongue out anyways and has to lick anything and everything well my families dog mollie came right up to her and licked her tongue..several times..and Pais kept eggin it on..it was kinda funny..and so sick at the same time... lets just say she has a good immune system hahaha
..I have said this before and I'll say it again.. SHE LOVES WHEN DADDY COMES HOME!!

.Cant believe we will be celebratin her birthday next month! I cant wait to give her her present cause she needs new toys desperatly.. We love you baby girl!
