Moving

Yes that is right. We are moving. We are going to be loading up all of our stuff this Friday into a large enclosed trailer and head on down the road towards Arco. We will be living in our camper for a short while while we find a place adequate for us to live in. AKA Kellen wants to buy a home and so we still are looking around. My Mason is growing like a weed. I have already had to decide that his 0-3 month onesies are too small and that he needs to be in a 3-6 month onesie. It is mainly because he is so long. I don't know how I will keep up with him. Juliet continues to be my super helper and mimmicks what I do with Mason with one of her toy babies. Yesterday she tried to nurse the baby, but what I think was the funniest was when she grabbed a burb cloth and tried to burp her toy baby, then proceeded to change its diaper by putting it on the changing pad and getting a diaper. She also likes to try and get a hold of my pump. The funny thing with this is that she puts it over her belly button and laughs. She has been very helpful with me packing up boxes. She even started packing up my kitchen towels and her bibs to make sure they came along. Last night she was so sweet with Mason. He was in the swing so he could see what was going on and she was over there gently pushing the swing for him, then she would lay her head in his lap and hum. It was so very cute and I wasn't fast enough to get a picture. Anyway that is the latest update with our lives.

Can I get a break

I had forgotten how much sleep you lose with a new baby. Mason is 1 month old today. He is growing like a weed. I am not surprised because he eats a lot. Most newborn babies are satisfied with 2-3 ounces of milk, Mason wants 5 at the very least and he still nurses every 3 hours sometime less. He is going to go throught clothes faster than Juliet I think because some of my 0-3month clothes are already starting to be a little bit small. He might stay in them for one more month. Also we are working like crazy to get things together for the closing on our house. Doing quotes and deciding where we will put stuff. I will try later to put up some pictures that we took of the inside of it. Once again must take care of munchkins. This break is over.

He's Here

Mason D. Reynolds was born August 9th, 2009 at 11:35pm. He was born on his daddy's birthday. He weighed 8lbs, 5ounces and was 22 inches long. This is him after we brought him home.

Having a snooze in the hospital.

Jet really likes Mason. She gave him kisses when she met him, but we weren't fast enough with the camera to catch it. We are all home now and are doing well and adjusting to each other.

Woodland Reunion 2009

Here is Juliet. She can't wait to get into the little wading pool that my sister brought to help us keep the littlest kids cooled down in the heat. It seemed that it was scheduled over the hottest weekend of the summer, but we had a blast. I pulled the camper and thus had A/C and that helped with me being large and pregnant.
Jet in the camper. She thought it was so fun to be camping.

Jet cooling down after we arrived and boy did she have fun.

Jet with Grandma. She likes to rock-a-bye with grandma. this was before we were to leave to the camp site

Juliet and I hanging out a little while before I had to pack to go on the camping trip.

Kelly reunion

So Kellen and I were invited for the 4th of July weekend to go to the Kelly's (close friends of ours) reunion. This is a pic of where we set up our tent.

This is a pic of the ride home. It loaded out of order and I am not smart enough to get it where I want it. Jet had a lot of fun, but was ready to come home.

This was the only time that Jet's bear was allowed outside the tent. She was so excited that Mom let her have it. It was being used as a comforting and calming tool, because this is after her and I had our little spill with the 4-wheeler. They are working hard to build a little cabin and Jet was more than willing to help. She mostly held a hammer.

All and all we had a blast.

Not here Yet

I went to the doc and am at a three, but my baby boy has yet to make his debute. I am suddenly realizing that I am really running out of time to do things before Mason arrives. I have cleaned my whole house today, mostly because I have been slacking and today it really was bothering me that the house was a mess, so I cleaned it. I keep wanting to re-arrange my closets, but know that is too big of a job to do in the amount of time that Jet takes for her nap. anyway so Kellen and i went a saw the Newest Harry Potter and really enjoyed it. Kellen has not read the books and it was a long time ago that I did so we had a blast. Kellen got on a harry potter kick and has been telling me for a while that he would like it if we owned the series. Well on Monday he went and bought them. I thought it was funny because I wanted them too and now we have them. Our movie collection has increased quite a bit here in the last little while. We get into movie watching moods and bam we own movies. Usually the $5 ones at wally world. Write again another day.

HOT HOT HOT

So our apartment has no air conditioning, but is also on the third level and so each day I cook a little more from the sun beating down on the building. I am due August 9th and so am in that final two week run, where time really slows down. I try to keep busy doing projects to help keep my mind off the fact that time is moving so slowly. Jet has decided that it is cool to help mommy with some stuff mostly because she ends up getting a reward of some sort for helping me out. Positive reenforcement. School will be starting again soon. I am signed up to take nine credits and then in December I will be done. I cannot wait until that happens. Jet also has really begun to understand that when Kellen and I ask her to fold her arms that it is time for prayer and that she is supposed to be quiet. She does really well and will sometimes talk as though she is saying the prayer. It is really cute. Kellen and I now own the whole Star Wars Series and the last three even have the old version with the yup, yup song on Return of the Jedi. We are watching them. One per night after Juliet has gone to bed. Ashley tell your sister congrats for me. It is exciting to have kids. Kara when do you find out what you are having?
Have to go to take care of my munchkin.
