Pumpkin Time!

We had fun carving pumpkins last night! Each pumpkin turned out so cute! The kids loved it!

Happy Halloween! We'll have lots of fun party pictures next week!

Baby Number 3!

I'm 20 weeks pregnant! Yeah, 1/2 way :-) and it's definitely a boy! We got a great shot of his boy parts and it's very obvious. Everything looked perfect (thank goodness). They also said that he is very active! He never stopped moving the entire ultrasound, so he made our tech earn her money. Needless to say, we weren't surprised! We've already got 2 of those, and I figured the next would be just the same. :-) So far so good....

Side profile since he wouldn't sit still for a picture and a cute foot :-)

31 and Happy

I turned the big 3-1 this past weekend, and I'm feeling surprisingly happy about it. I say surprisingly because I've wanted to be "older" my entire life, until I hit about 26. I think the 30's are going to be great! I'm really happy just being how old I am. I don't wish I was older or younger. It's kinda awesome.

Thanks to everyone for the Birthday wishes and my amazing family who went all out to make me feel loved. I feel like I've been celebrating for a week with Jason and my extended family. The kids sang to me at least 3 times on my day and I had a wonderful romantic dinner with Jason, dinner with both our families, and even a girls night out! It was a great birthday!

Ryan and His Buddies

Ryan got to wear his Halloween costume to Gymnastics on Monday. He's not into costumes so this is only the second time I could even get him to put it on. Once he saw his best buddies dressed up, he was totally into it. Aren't they adorable! He had so much fun!
Here's a picture of Ryan at playgroup with his buddies. They love to wrestle and tackle. Guess who's right in the middle of it? Yep.

Major Revamp

So I finally got around to doing some major updating on my Baby Jayne's blog. Go check it out and see what you think. I'd like to start posting regularly there again and get some blog exposure. We'll see how the holiday's go and how I'm feeling. But I'm excited about the new look and hopefully more ease of use. Especially check out the Tutorial button on the top. I think all the picture links turned out cool. I'm just learning all this blog/editing/picture stuff so it's kinda fun :-) This blog will be next to get updated!

Trip to Utah

It's been a long since Jason and I have been back to UT. Since we graduated college a little over 10 years ago and moved back to CA, we've only been back 1 time on a vacation and then for both of his grandparents funerals. So, when our best friends moved to UT this summer we thought it was a perfect opportunity to go back and visit and take the kids along! We had a WONDERFUL time! We stayed in Park City for 1 night and did our favorite Park City things, a beautiful drive down the canyon, and stayed a few days with our friends in UT County. A BYU football game, a run with Leanna through the canyon, a stop at the BYU Bookstore for the kids, temple square, Thanksgiving Point, and of course all of our favorite places to eat- it was a wonderful trip! And we loved getting to see our friends!

*We flew so the kids were PUMPED to fly on an airplane. They've both been on airplanes several times but of course they can't really remember, even though it wasn't that long ago.

So excited to be on the plane!
Swimming at the Hotel
Sleeping on the pull-out couch at the hotel. Ryan is soooo excited not to be in a pack in play crib. Let's just say it was kinda rough night sleep :-) And he went back in the crib for the rest of the trip.
Riding to the top of the ski mountain in Park City
I just love this picture! We totally enjoyed the mountains and beautiful scenery. Heading to the Alpine Slides.
Ready to Fly Down The Mountain!
Ryan was nervous for about a minute then he was LOVING it and hoot'ing and hollering all the way down the mountain. He calls it the 'car ride'.
Beautiful Drive Down the Canyon. Took us back to our college days and many fun activities and dates :-)
Ryan and Tyler totally bonded and had so much fun together!
Jayne and Jocelyn were inseparable and had so much fun together. They definitely miss each other.
It was so great to see our really good friends! We had a fun evening having dinner and playing at a park up the canyon.
Wow, we've produced a lot of kids! And more on the way :-)
Sometimes my kids are just so cute. I we were walking behind them, I noticed them holding hands as we walked through temple square and I had to hurry to get the picture without them seeing. I LOVE this picture.
An awesome way to end our trip. The kids loved the visitor's center at Temple Square. All in All an awesome trip! We'll be back to visit. Hopefully sooner than another 5 years :-)

Ryan 2.5

Look at what my sister taught me? How to dance and pose. Just what every boy needs to know :-)

Ryan heads to playgroup. Finally he gets to see his friends. He was so excited. After all the million pictures of Jayne I decided he needed one before his playgroup. I only get 1 shot with him and this was it :-) Then it was off to wrestle and tackle my friends...literally.
