fish, sunset, and concrete

The slab is finally poured! We start framing on monday and it will finally start looking like a house!

Sunset

Phil and his dad went fishing this morning and this is what they caught! :) we are having him for dinner! :)

Recent Pictures of Jessie

Ok, I have realized that my blog is kind of lame because I only post pictures of Jessie. I just can not help it...she is pretty much the center of my life right now, and I think that is ok. I am going to try however to be a little more interesting on my blog....I am not sure why, but I am going to try....well after today I am going to start trying! :)

So this is Jessie lately...if she can somehow get it up to her mouth, she is gnawing on it. It is usually ok. Her room is also where I attempt to sew, so the other day while she was playing in her crib i decided to try and sew a little (i am sewing my own dress for my sisters wedding) anyway, i look over at her and she is viciously licking the sheet of her crib, so I go over there and she had spit up and was licking it back off the sheet. Ewwww...it was funny and she was mad when I pulled her away and cleaned it up...it could have been worse. I had a friend whose baby would play in her diaper in the mornings when she would wake up...yuck! :)

Baby beach bum!

Jessie enjoyed the water at first until a small wave startled her, then she was not liking it at all unless Phil was holding her close...then she was ok.

I have such a handsome hubby!

Daddy's girl!

We went camping. Jessie slept in the truck with the windows cracked (there were no mosquitos) Our 3 man tent is a little small for a baby...we are going to have to get a bigger one...or we can just put up the vestibule next time and Jessie can sleep there. :) J/K

House Progress

WE actually have part of the slab poured already, but I have not taken pictures of that yet.

Some recent pictures of Jessie

Jessie was sooo tired, so in between laughing at her daddy she would start to cry and curl that bottom lip. It was sooo sad, but so darn cute!

We went for a run and this is how she looked when we got home...it was an exhausting run! :)

One night she was making funny faces like this one. I was laughing so hard. I think she realized why I was laughing because she just kept making faced and then she would smile. It was a great night.

Petie's foot fetish

Our bird Petie really like feet. It is really funny, but a little dangerous for the little guy. He will sit there at your feet and start to talk to them. It all started with my moms feet when she was visiting and ever since, he just can not get enough. He also follows me around the house wherever I go. It is great...he just can not stand not to be in the same room as you are. He is really concerned with Jessie too. Anytime I let her cry for awhile, he starts singing as loud as he can, maybe to get my attention or to calm her, I do not know, but it can get quite loud. I am sure my neighbors are amazed at the noise coming from our house. :)

Night Fishing

We went night fishing and had a ton of fun! Jessie was awesome and the boat literally rocked her to sleep. She slept better on the boat than she has been in her crib lately, so I was pretty happy. The little fish, was the first catch of the night. We would reel up the line and there would be 4 fish on each time we brought it up. We finally had to stop fishing because we were getting too many. The fish were small, but they made very yummy fish tacos. I also included a picture of Mauna Kea at sunset. The picture does not give the mountain justice, but we live right there in that valley, so I just wanted to share it.

Trip to Utah

These are some pictures that I took on our trip to Utah this summer. Phil was not able to go, but it was fun because it was the first time most of the family has met Jessie!

Siste MaryBeth and her daughter Sammy

Ollie as "caveman"

Me and Jessie with Lindsey and Missy (Kendra's girls)

Nick (Kendra's oldest)

JEssie and cousin Gabriella

My sisters all got together for a fun weekend. We were supposed to go out on the town, but a few of us got sick, so we opted for Wingers instead. It was nice and close. Unfortunately mom was too sick to join us.

Also during the weekend, we had "spa time" where we gave each other pedicures. It was very fun!

Gabriella (Bizzy's baby)

We played some games on the trampoline too! (this is Bizzy)

Suz, she played along even though she was one of the ones sick.

Katie

Uncle Jon and Jessie

Sammy with Jessie

While I was staying with the Holtons we went for a walk to the park. We had a good time playing on the new teeter-totter and other stuff.

At the Heileson family reunion. Jessie had a very nice nap in Uncle Allen's arms.
