The howells family

Spring 2010

2010-04-18T12:56:00.000-07:00

We love the weather lately. Judd loves the trampoline. It's hard for mom to watch, but he loves it. Catching some air.

Judd needs a hair cut so bad.

Judd love the four wheeler.

Always wants to help with everything. Loves to help Daddy do all his Chores.

Here is Judd Cheese picture. This is what all my picture look like lately.

What's Judd up to!

2010-04-18T12:34:00.000-07:00

Making messes!! He is such a boy, loves to play in dirt. Play rough and loves anything that has to do with balls. Basketball is his favorite. He loves to watch Football. He's favorite show is Blue's clues. He is just so much fun. I can't believe how smart this kid is. He is starting to talk sentences and is growing up way to fast. He loves to say " GO AWAY DEUCE" (That's are dog) Everything is "MINE" Like MY MOMMY, but I love it. I could go on and on about this little guy. I love that he is starting to clean up after himself. He sings, " Clean up, Clean up, everybody do your share." It makes me laugh every time. He learned it at daycare.
Judd loves to eat, and knows where the food is. He runs over to the pantry and grabs everything. He loves Fruit Loops. We just got done with dinner and I was getting him ready for bath time and next thing I know he found the box and spilled them all over the floor, and it was a race between him and Deuce who could eat it faster.

Messy face!
This is the face he does every time I take a picture of him now. He says cheese and them pulls this face.

Eating off the floor.

The only reason why Deuce likes Judd.

Just Dance!!

2010-04-18T12:29:00.000-07:00

We got the game for the Wii, Just dance it was so fun. We had the best time. I have a video but Trent would kill me if I posted it.

Easter!

2010-04-18T12:17:00.000-07:00

We had a really good Easter. You are never to old for a good old Easter Egg hunt. The girls got a lot of candy. Kateland stopped just long enough for me to take this picture. Haylee, searching for some eggs!!!

Cheese!!

Judd loved just being outside. By the end he was getting excited to find an egg.

My little egg hunter.

Update!!

2010-03-20T11:15:00.000-07:00

The Howells family has been a little busy lately. Judd is growing up way to fast. He is talking, new words everyday. He is so funny, just a ton of fun. He just had his 18 month doctor appt. He weighs 28 pounds. He is good and healthy. I just happy no more shots until he starts school. Haylee is enjoying school. She tries out for Box Elder cheerleader on Wednesday. Wish her luck!! Kateland is good. She loves her dance class and loves hanging out friends. Its crazy how fast this year is going.

This video is Judd and Daddy playing Basketball. It makes me laugh. I can never get a picture of him anymore. He always just wants my camera. I love his little voice.

2010-03-20T10:25:00.001-07:00

Trent got a new dirt bike. I do not know alot about it, but he is sure excited!

Judd with Daddy on the new dirt bike!

Nascar!!

2010-03-20T10:16:00.000-07:00

Trent went to the Nascar race in Vegas. Early March it was a little cold but he had a great time. Here some picture of all the fun. Trents fav driver, Kurt Busch. The number 2 car!

The start of the race.

Trent thinks shes hot!

Maybe next year I will have to go.

The start of a new day!

2010-01-16T11:58:00.000-08:00

Today is the first day of my diet. I started the isagnix, it's a 30 day program and I'm excited. So bare with me cause this is now my journal.
I have mixed feeling about dieting but I need to for myself. I still have a lot of baby fat to lose, which is funny cause Judd is no longer a baby. So I will keep you updated on how things go. I will not post my before picture until I have an after. (lol) That is if I dare to.
I have joined the isagnix team, lisa106.isagenix.com if you would like to find out info on it.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

2009-12-26T11:40:00.000-08:00

I feel so blessed this holidays session. I'm so thankful for my beautiful family, my home, and everyone around me. Its been a hard year for us and a lot of changes. Autoliv went through a hard time in January last year which helped me to make some hard decision my life. I left Autoliv to try to become a Dental assistant. (I went to school for it before I got pregnant with Judd.) Found a job in Farr West but took a big pay cut. Long story short, In August we had no idea how to pay for Christmas. Then my brother in law Matt helped me get a job on base Dental assisting in Oct. I'm so thankful to Matt for thinking about me and helping me. Matt saved Christmas for us. I love my job and found something I'm really interested in. We went all out for Christmas this year. Spent a little to much money, but we have been on such a tight budget this year. We felt like spoiling ourselves.

I got a new entertainment center from ikea. It took Trent all day to but together. Trent got a new gun for hunting. Haylee got a new Ipod, clothes, and new bedding for her room. Kateland got a new phone, clothes, and also new bedding. Judd got a big wheel and he loves it. And as a family we got a PS3. Judd on his big wheel

Judd, he's a stud!

Daddy and Judd playing!

2009-12-13T11:39:00.000-08:00

Judd is such a daddy boy!! He loves to play with him for hours. That helmet that Judd is wearing is really heavy it's Trent's grandpa's from WW2. He loves it! I love this picture .

Judd's new dance moves!

2009-12-13T11:27:00.000-08:00

Judd loves to dance and now he started to do this head banging move. He makes me laugh!

Snow day!!

2009-12-13T11:08:00.001-08:00

Winter is finally here!! Judd likes the snow, but just does not want to touch it. Every time he would touch it he would say "hot." He is so funny.

Judd is just so much fun!!

My new pets!!

2009-11-19T18:41:00.000-08:00

J/K we don't really have a new pet. We have bee's in our house. It started on Halloween morning when Judd stepped on one, and Judd was a little bee for Halloween. Ever since Halloween we have found over 200 bee's in our basement. So Trent knew that we had to have a hive in our basement some where. So on Monday he started to drill holes in our walls looking for them. Here is one of the many bee's we have killed Trent has became a Pro.
Here is a picture of the holes in the wall after Trent drilled. We had to tape because they started coming out as soon as he drilled it. We put some kind of powder in the holes that killed them. looks like baking powder.

Here is a picture of some of the bee's in the wall covered in that powder. They are really big.

Trent thinks that the hive has been there for years because of the size. It is in the left hand corner that white thing

I'm so thankful for my brave hubby to do all that himself. I can always count on him to keep us safe. He took the hive out himself. So brave.

Judd first time in the snow!!

2009-11-19T18:36:00.001-08:00

Lets just say Judd didn't care to much for the snow!!

Happy Halloween!!

2009-11-01T19:42:00.000-08:00

We are back!!! I broke my camera and I finally got a new one. We had a great Halloween. Judd was a bee. We have been super busy. I got a new job on base as a dental assistant. I love it. Judd is growing up so fast and making life exciting. I love this age, he is just a blast. He has the biggest personality, and keeps me on my toes. The girls are doing good. I just can't believe that it is November already.

Trick or Treat!!

2009-09-18T15:31:00.000-07:00

I took Judd to the doctor today for his 12 month appointment. He had to get 3 shots plus the flu shot. So 2 in each leg. I almost started to cry with him. Every thing is great Judd is a healthy boy.

Weight: 25.3 Percentile: 79%

Height: 31 3/4 in. 94%

Head Circ: 48.9 97%

Happy Birthday Judd!!

2009-09-11T12:51:00.001-07:00

One year ago today I was blessed with my beautiful baby boy "Judd". It has been the best year ever, and went so fast. I can't believe that he is one. Here are just some of my favorite pictures from the past year. Picture overload. Sorry there is a lot. So tiny. . .
He has always had a big head! Poor little guy.

One day old.

Judd was the best baby ever. Always happy!

I love this picture. One of my favs.

Too cute!

Always happy!

Love this pictures!

Happy birthday Judd.

update!

2009-08-25T16:35:00.000-07:00

Wow, its been awhile. Summer is coming to an end! The girls return to school on the 31st. Judd is going to be going to a new sitter. I'm a little nervous, but I really like the lady. The girls are both really excited for school to start so they can be with their friends again. Haylee is going to be a freshman. (a big 9th grader) Kateland is going into 7th.

Judds first birthday is coming fast. Less than a month. Judd is walking all the time now. He has 4 teeth on top and 3 on the bottom. I can't believe how fast the time gone.

My poor little guys has a viral rash. It started to show up yesterday morning and now is all over his chest and back. Here are some pictures, its kind of hard to see it in the pictures.

He has been super fussy. Its been a hard couple of days!!

Click on picture to make it big so you can see it better!

I took him to the doctor last night and he said it could take a couple of weeks to go away. Its not a itchy rash. It just hard cause its a viral rash so it has to go away by it self.

My poor little guy!!

Judds a big kid now!!

2009-07-29T20:04:00.000-07:00

Judd started walking today. Haylee who watches him for me sent my a video and I got all teary eyed at work. My baby is growing up to fast. So I bet by next week he is walking! Don't mind my messy house Judd can mess it up in a blink of an eye.

2009-07-29T19:40:00.000-07:00

Here is Judd playing with my dog. Judd just loves Duce. It is the funniest thing ever!

Picture over load!

2009-07-28T21:15:00.000-07:00

Here is some more picture from our big photo shot. They turned out so good, thanks Candice.

I love this picture. . .

Look at those teeth. Judd is getting his 5th tooth and I think he is going to have 8 by his 1st birthday.

My beautiful girls.

Daddy and Judd, too cute!

No boys allowed!

My parents are up to 10 grand kids.

3 Years!!!

2009-07-22T20:37:00.001-07:00

All because two people fell in love....

Just a little trip down memory lane. Today is my wedding anniversary, 3 years. (wow) So I thought that I would post some picture from that day. It was a hot summer afternoon in Paradise. Surrounded by family and friends- What more could you ask for?
and then there was four!

It was a really hot day, poor Trent in a suit.

Trent and I with our parents.

The Buttars Family!!!

The Howells / Smith Family.

My wedding cake!!

Look how little my girls are!! I can't believe how fast they grow. What beautiful girls!

I got married at Trent's parents house. ( They have a view worth a million dollars) Thanks again Carol. It turned out great.

The most beautiful sunset ever!! Happy anniversary Trent, I love you so much. Thanks for a great 3 years can't wait to see what the future has in store for us.

Judd has some moves.

2009-07-19T09:38:00.000-07:00

Just a little update!!! Judd finally sleep through the night now. It been since the last week in June. So almost a month, YEAH Judd. (It only took 10 months)

Judd learned how to dance and it is the funniest thing ever! In the video he is singing too. He is a little talker. I have never heard a baby talk so much. Trent says that he takes after me. He says 3 words. Dada, Mama, Baba for bottle. Some times he says doggie but I don't think that he means to. No more baby food, which is nice since the price of it just went up.

4th of July weekend!!

2009-07-06T19:33:00.000-07:00

For the 4th of July my parents rented a cabin up at Bear Lake. What had a blast! ! ! Sorry for the picture over load.

Judd showing off his 4 teeth. What a stud!

2009-07-06T19:16:00.001-07:00

Caution everything goes into mouth!!!
Too cute!

Judd just crawled around for 5 minutes with that piece of paper in his mouth. He tore it out of his book. I know he shouldn't play with paper books.

Judd like my daddy. We are best buds.

My future basketball star!

Fun in the sun!

2009-07-06T18:58:00.000-07:00

Finally it is summer!! Judd is just like his daddy, loves the outdoors. It was a hot day so we played in the water and Judd loved it. Water and the trampoline is all we needed. He laughed the whole time.

I love this picture!!!

I started to video tape him at the end and he was starting to get tired. He makes me laugh how he keeps throwing his hands in the air for daddy to get him wet.

9 months!

2009-06-28T07:18:00.000-07:00

Judd is now 9 months old. He is older then how long a was preggo. He is growing way to fast, my pregnancy went so slow. Judd just amazes me every day. He is into everything. He has 4 teeth and the 5th is on its way. He is standing with furniture and walks along it. He just has the best little personality.
The measurements are in, we had his 9 month check up Friday. (I was thankful no shots)

Weight 23.12 Percentile 86%
Height 30 In Percentile 90%
Head 47.8 Percentile 97%

I have a healthy baby boy.

Update!

2009-06-24T20:09:00.000-07:00

Judd going up stairs. Don't mind the girls fighting that is what they do. I just love all the little noises Judd makes. He does it all the time. He is not a quite baby.

Are hands are all tied up now!!! Judd is into everything. This is his favorite thing to do. He started the same week that he learned to crawl and now is really good at it. We did finally break down and get a baby gate, but we have a tri level house so its hard to always have it up. (It really makes my dog mad when he can't go up stairs.)

Haylee and Kateland are doing really good. Finished the school year with good grades. They sure have been a big help with Judd. Judd sure loves them. He has the best big sister ever. Haylee has been a big help this summer. She is watching Judd while we are working. Which is nice she can earn a little money and is doing us a big favor.

I'm still in shock that my baby is 9 months old, its sad. He is so fun now and I can't wait for what the future has in store for us.

Judd love to look outside. He pulls himself up onto everything.

Rain, Rain go away!

2009-06-21T19:43:00.000-07:00

We decided to make fathers day, weekend instead... Trent told me a couple of weeks ago that all he wanted for fathers day was for us to go camping. ( and Nascar tickets) My first reaction was tenting it with a 9 month old, NO WAY!! (We have no trailer but hope next year we can get one) Then some of are good friends asked us to go and stay in their trailer. I love camping and was way excited, until it rained all weekend. Being in the woods great, stuck in a trailer with 15 people, not so fun. We made the best of it. Judd was ready to come home, and so was every one else. I am so sick of all the rain. I know we need it, but where's June and the sun? I forgot my camera so I don't have any pictures of Judd first camping trip. I hope that everyone had a great fathers day.

Weekend! No kids. . .

2009-06-09T20:03:00.000-07:00

Last weekend Trent and I went with our good friends Kristin and Ozzie to Mesquite for a weekend without kids. It was so much fun. We went four wheeling and swimming. It was so hard to leave Judd for 3 days but he was in good hands. (thanks to my mother-in-law) It was the best weather for us to four wheeling.

Here is some pictures from the weekend!

Trent and I, what a cute couple.

Kristin and Ozzie.

Looking good!!!

Here is a picture from in side the tunnel.

Thanks mom and dad for letting us use your condo.

Thanks Carol for watching the kids.

So big!!

2009-06-04T18:56:00.001-07:00

Judd is growing up so fast last week we had to lower his crib because he started standing in there. He just loves how mobile he is. He can also go up the stairs because of daddy. (It scares me to death) and its his favorite toy. Judds new hair do. . .

I just have to laugh at his face in this picture.
What do you think of his hair do?

Haylee and Judd playing around outside.

Trents new toy

2009-06-04T18:52:00.000-07:00

Trent has needed new ties for his truck for ever so he went and got them and came home with rims too!!! It looks like a new truck!!

Happy Birthday!!

2009-06-04T18:51:00.000-07:00

Happy Birthday Kateland!!!

Before

After

So I wanted a drastic change and I thought that going black would be just what I needed. I also chopped all my hair. I'm still not sure if I like it or not. What do you think?

The back view.

Memorial Weekend!

2009-05-25T16:13:00.000-07:00

What a great vacation!! We went down to Mesquite for the weekend with my parents and stayed at their condo. I was a little nerves with Judd and a 6 hour drive, but he did great both ways. He was my little champ. We did a lot of four wheeling and hanging by the pool. It was beautiful weather but hot. Kateland and Haylee both love the water. It was Judd first time in a pool and I was excited cause he loves the bath. Judd did great he loved it. On Sunday we went over to Vegas so the girls could see it. We didn't stay long because it was hot and Judd was fussy. Trent and the girls went on the roller coaster at the New York New York, and loved it. It was a little crowded for a stroller.

This is the Roller Coaster that they all went on. I have been on it a couple of times.
Haylee, Kateland and Judd on the strip!

Judd as happy as can be!!!

Judd is crawling now!

2009-05-17T08:58:00.000-07:00

Last night Judd starting crawling. It is so sad how fast he is growing up. Don't mind me I was alittle excited and I'm not the best vidoe taker.

Update!

2009-05-16T16:22:00.000-07:00

I had a really good mothers day last Sunday! Trent got me a Forerunner 305 to train for my marathon. I love it! I just got done running 5 miles and love my mothers day gift! It tells you every thing you need to know your Distance and your time. Then you go home and plug it into the computer and it shows you where you ran with the GPS. Here is some random pictures of Judd. I bought this little Chicago Bears outfit for the fall. But my little guy is already in 12-18 months cloths. I love the little socks.

Judd has just been so much fun.

Judd is all over the place now.

Judd thinking about crawling!

Judd loves his food. But it is really hard cause he moves like crazy so by the end he is always covered in it.

Lisa is runnin, runnin, runnin. . .

2009-05-07T20:37:00.000-07:00

So I think that I have lost my mind!!! I'm going to try to run a marathon in Sept. I'm way excited about it, but nerves at the same time. I started to train this week and man I am sore. I just ran 3 miles in 40 min tonight, Yeah! and I'm thrilled because it is my 3rd time running in 2 years. I'm running the Top of Utah Marathon in Logan which will be way beautiful. To also get pumped up I'm going to run the half marathon at the end of Aug. and the 10K for Brigham City Peach days. I have always enjoyed running and think that this is a great chance to get back into shape after having Judd.

Weekend!!

2009-04-28T19:18:00.000-07:00

So it is official I quit Autoliv. Friday I went in and signed all my exiting papers. It was kind of a bitter sweet. I'm working as a dental hygiene assistant, which I really like. Hopefully it all works out in the end.

Saturday we had a busy day. We had Haylee dance competition which she did great in. She had 2 dance and got 2nd in both of them. Haylee is a really good dancer. Kateland did not dance this year but was wishing she did on Saturday. There is always next year. But sitting with a 7 month old is a task in it self. Luckily my parents live right around the corner so we spent a lot of the day there.

Then we had a family party at Craigs. Andrea come from Maryland and brought her 2 girls. She had her baby girl in Nov. She is just so cute. (I wish that I would have got a picture of her) It was a lot of fun, and really good food. I forgot that I had my camera so by the time I got it out we were all tired and stuffed.

Haylee without her braces. She turns 14 in May and is just becoming such a beautiful young lady.
Here is Kateland look as beautiful as ever.

Grandma Smith and Judd. Judd sure loves his grandma's.

Haylee with Judd.

Judd is clapping!

2009-04-23T19:35:00.000-07:00

Judd just started clapping, and it is just so cute. So I thought I would share! He just started doing it yesterday. We are not quite sure where he learned it but we love it. . .

Don't mind my voice I get a little excited!

Smile!!!

2009-04-23T19:26:00.000-07:00

Here are just some random pictures from today. Judd is just the happiest little guy. I could have not asked for a better baby. Judd is finally over his RSV which I'm thankful for. Now if only the weather would stay good so we could play outside. Judd is going to be crawling in a couple of weeks I bet. He now gets up on his knees but doesn't quite know how to move forward.
Isn't that smile to die for!!!

What a week!

2009-04-18T08:15:00.000-07:00

My poor little guy has a slight case of RSV. It has been the hardest week on him. Between breathing treatments and teething he is just miserable. It all started on Sunday, Judd just sounded a little stuffed up. But it just kept getting worse. Wednesday Judd was just so wheezy that Trent got off work and took Judd to the doctor. His ear look great, which we are really lucky he has never had a ear infection. (Knock on wood) Judd also weighs 21.8 pounds now. But the doctor was worried about his Oxygen level it was low. Now we have to give Judd breathing treatments every 4 hours and he hates them. . . for about a week depending on his breathing. It takes 10 to 15 min and he fights you the whole time.

Judd is also getting his top teeth now. On Thursday the top tooth broke through the gums. So at 7 months Judd already has 3 teeth and I'm sure that the next one is on the way. Trent being a meat person says he'll be eating steak in no time!

You would never know how sick he is cause he is still happy.

Here Judd is playin with daddy hat. I think that he is going to be just like dad cause he already likes hats.
Judd is just so much fun! What a great little personality.

I think that he looks like dad here!

Judds mobile. . .

2009-04-13T17:42:00.000-07:00

On Friday Judd realized that he can roll where ever he wants to go. It was the funniest thing ever, he keep looking up at us to see if we were watching. Now he just keeps rolling over and over, back and forth. I bet that he is crawling by the end of the month. I don't want him to grow up this fast. . .

Update on the teething baby, Judd now has 2 teeth. I can't believe how fast the other tooth came.

What a great Easter Day!!!

2009-04-13T17:23:00.000-07:00

We had a wonderful Easter at the Howells house. The girls just wanted a outfit instead of the Easter Basket. Judd got a outfit too! We all went down to my brother Chads house for dinner and a Easter egg hunt. It was a lot of fun (thanks Chad and Candice) It was such a beautiful day, minus the wind. I have spring fever now.

Here is Trent and Judd.

Me and Judd enjoying the weather.

What a great day!

Teething baby no fun for we

2009-03-31T17:33:00.000-07:00

My beautiful six-month-old baby boy, who has been the most perfect little angel since birth, has suddenly turned into a cranky, fussy, drooling, chews-on- everything-in-site little monster! He is now keeping us up half the night, and needs to be held, bounced, and nursed all day long. Welcome us to the wonderful world of TEETHING! I have tried everything from Tylenol and teething Tablets. Judd just will not sleep at night any more. We went from him waking once or twice to eat to once every hour. He already has one tooth take broke through his gums, and I think the next one is on its ways.
Any Advise on TEETHING!

PICTURES!!!

2009-03-21T15:16:00.000-07:00

I went to Kiddie Kandids today! Judd was so good. I think that his pictures turned out great.

Here he is going fishing!

Judd just didn't know what to do with the frog!
My little cowboy!

All he wanted to do was eat the rope! Too cute!

More of the cowboy. I just love it!
This one is one of my favorits.

I wanna be a cowboy, baby!

This one is my favorite I just love his smile!

Bring on Spring!!

I finally took Judd for his first walk. He just loved it, he has never seen the big world out there.

I am loving this warm weather. Bring on Spring!

My poor baby!!

2009-03-09T14:39:00.000-07:00

I feel like the worst mom ever. Judd and I were playing on the floor last night. He has started sitting up really good by himself. He falls only once in awhile now. We were playing while he was sitting, and he went to fall over I tried to save him. ( I didn't want him to get hurt ) As my nail went across his nose and forehead. Instead of the floor hurting him, I did. I seriously started to cry along with him. Trent thought that it was the funniest thing ever, that I was crying. I just felt so bad that I hurt him like that. My poor baby nose!!!

Here is Judd before I scared him. Judd wants crawl so bad and just can't quit figure it out. I think that it will be within a month or two.

ROUND OF APPLAUSE!

2009-03-01T21:28:00.000-08:00

This weekend I got a taste of what being a single mom feels like. Its hard work to do it all by yourself. I give all the single moms a Round of applause. I'm so thankful for Trent and how much he helps me. On Friday Judd and I both didn't feel good, and it made for a long day. Saturday Judd woke up a different baby, he was back to his old self. He was as happy as can be.. Lucky Trent is coming home tomorrow afternoon, and I miss him tons.

Just the two of us!

Judd and cousin Jerzee, don't you just love the expression on both of their faces.

Grandma Smith watched Judd and the girls for Trent and I so we could go out to dinner, Thanks Carol. We had a great time. Lacie and Jerzee were there to play.
Lacie and I decided to see what they would do if they bathed together. Jerzee just loved it, she just clapped her hands and thought that it was so funny. Judd didn't know what to think. I hope that they become the greatest friends.

And. . . I have another 3 weeks off and I'm so excited I get to be with Judd for a little bit longer.

Back to work!

2009-02-19T11:33:00.000-08:00

I had to return to work this week. It seemed to be harder this time then when I went back the first time when Judd was 6 weeks old. I was off for over 2 months. Now I'm on swings, it sucks, but at least we do not need a sitter. Trent gets to do it all by himself at night. I'm just lucky to still have a job. We are doing really great. Judd is growing so fast and he amazes me everyday. He loves his daddy so. He just lights up with daddy walks into the room. (He thinks that daddy means play time.) Haylee went to her first school dance last Friday, and was so excited that a 9th asked her to dance. (OH NO) She got all dressed up and looked just beautiful, before we know it she'll be going to high school dances. Kateland is doing really good just loves to be a big sister, and she the best with Judd. Judd is sure luck to have such great sisters.

Crazy Hair. . .

2009-02-10T06:36:00.000-08:00

I think this picture is funny. Judd look nerves. His hair grows so fast. I have already had my mom trim it. I want to cut it short so that it is all the same lenght, but Trent wants me to leave it.. What do you think?

Who do you think Judd looks Like?

2009-02-03T10:23:00.000-08:00

This is Trent hospital picture when he was born.

This is Judd hospital picture. He looks just like daddy. (I think)

Now everyone is saying that he looks like mommy. Judd is almost 5 months. What do you think?

2009-01-23T11:39:00.000-08:00

Today is a big day for me. My baby rolled over for the 1st time. I did not even get to see him the first time. I was in the tub. He loves the floor so I leave him on his back and when I got out he was on his belly:) So I put him back on his back and there he went right onto his belly. So sad how fast they grow. . .

My Birthday is today!!!

2009-01-06T14:11:00.000-08:00

Happy birthday to me, and i'm so sad i turned the big 25. I'm 1/4 the way to a 100. But i have so much to be thankful for, a beautiful home, beautiful kids, a great family, and last but not least a wonderful husband who i love and adore. I have a lot of fear for this year, i hope that Trent and i still have jobs by the end of the year. Things have sure slowed down at Autoliv. I had 3 weeks off for Christmas, and still no work. I haven't work a 8 hour day yet...

Judd is just getting so big it seems he changes everyday... I love this picture of judd. His hair is getting so long that i think he needs his 1st hair cut. My baby love to be naked if you ever want to make him smile take his diaper off.

Happy New Year
