I Love You Grandma......

Yesterday my sweet Grandma passed away suddenly. We miss you dearly and Love you so much. This is so hard to deal with because I have not lost someone so close to me yet. Jackson was her first great grandchild and she was crazy about him, her and my grandpa would call weekly to get updates, and any chance she got to hold him she would not let go nor give him back :) I know I will see her again someday, I now know she is Jackson's angel......Love you forever Grandma

Baby Blessing

Landon blessed Jackson on Sunday, May 3rd. He did such a wonderful job and we had so many family members and friends come to support us. Afterwards we had a luncheon at the Hyde Park building. I am so lucky to have a husband who holds the priesthood and is able to bless our child, I love him so much!

first photo session

My relative Jessi took some awesome photos of Jackson, we are so pleased with how they turned out. If any of you are interested check out her blog: tinytoesphotography.blogspot.com. she is amazing and is very affordable!! In fact the above family photo of us never took place.... she photo shopped me in and it looks perfect! Jackson is wearing his blessing outfit and it was the same one Landon was blessed in. These are a few of my favorites, enjoy :)

Mastitis :(

So I have mastitis now for the 2nd time in 4 weeks, and it really sucks!! My doctor is trying some different antibiotics, though they told me I might just be prone to getting it the rest of the time I breast feed. Or If it doesnt go away i might have to have the mass removed which =no breast feeding at all. I really love to BF and dont want to stop.
So I was wondering if any of you have ever had Mastitis? and if so, do you know any better methods of curing it? what helped you???
Maybe I am just doing it all wrong...help!!!

p.s. I will post some pics soon

Growing like a weed!

I can't believe Jackson is already 2 months old, where does the time go?!?! Now when I see brand new babies Jackson looks so big! At his 2 month apt. he weighed 10 lbs and was 22 1/2 inches long. He is doing so good and has come a long way, they are still monitoring his heart murmur (they call it vsd) and we had a heart echo to confirm that there is 2 small holes, but we are pretty confident that it will close on its own. He is such a wonderful baby and I treasure every day with him. He has brought so much happiness to Landon and I. We love you baby Jack :)

A few Things I LOVE about Jackson:

He has the cutest smile ever
how he stares and giggles at his daddy and me
He curls his toes around my lips when I kiss his feet
His grunts
He puts his hand in my face when he is done nursing
His chubby cheeks
His beautiful Blue eyes


We are so excited for summer and all the new adventures in store for us.

I can't believe it has been a WHOLE YEAR!

Well as of today we have been in our new home for an entire year. It has been such a blessing to us. We love being able to have our own space. Last years project was a sprinkler system which is AWESOME, thanks to Aaron for the professional help! As far as the as house goes, the basement is finished we just need to finish off the bathroom, that will be next years project for sure. This year though we will build a nice deck and fence off the back yard. Landon planted grass in the back so we should have a nice backyard by the summer. Luckily the front yard was finished when we moved in so Daisy has a place to go out. It's crazy how much our lives have changed since we moved here. Landon loves his home theater room after a long day at work.. (I'm sure the neighbors don't) and Jackon is loving his new nursery. We are so thankful to be living here, it changed our lives forever :) & Landon is thankful he has a garage for his car so he doesn't have to wash it every other day :)
