December Events!

We had Jeter's baby blessing on the 19th this month, exactly 2 months old! We had lots of family come up to Flagstaff and squish into our apartment :) but we had a really fun time! The blessing was so special. I was so emotional because I was just thinking about the hard road we had to take to get to this point. A misscarriage and fertility problems, to have Our baby being blessed was a miracle to me and I am so grateful. Kameron gave a wonderful blessing. I was a little crazy I guess, trying to make everything perfect and make everyone comfortable. I will hopefully get the picture from Emily soon....I only got one of Kam and I with Jeter. Jeter looked ADORABLE!
This random picture is just of Jeter practicing his basketball skills, with a little help from his daddy!

We had a wonderful christmas this year!! I have to say the last two have been some of the more gloomier, so this year was a breath of fresh air! We went to Janel's house in Queen Creek and spent christmas morning there, I was especially excited to see Nate, SungMi, and Aiden! We stayed up late and had fun playing games and visiting, here are some pictures...
peddi's and manni's! Thanks mom!!!!!

Jeter with cousin Killian and Aiden. Can't wait to have little Max in there!!!



So precious!


Christmas Pajamas from the elves!


here we are christmas morning.


I love this picture, this is how we all feel christmas morning and I happen to capture it on Kam's face!





Me and my baby boy!


So we picked up this puppy for Kameron's dad. It was a suprise gift for the Johnson family. She's the cutest little thing! She was snuggling with Jeter during nap time.


Christmas eve in our jammies.


The grandkids, we are missing Dane, Paige and Max we will have a big family picture this year that's been a long time coming!! We miss you Nick and Hannah, but we will see you soon!!
I can't forget Killian's baby blessing at home on christmas eve! It was such a wonderful experience! I love Brianna and little Killian. It really brought the christmas spirit!

We went to Cottonwood mid day on Saturday and spent some time there and than we went to Prescott for Connor's blessing. (Caryn and Cade's baby) it was fun spending more time with family. But it was nice to get home after a long weekend. I don't know if Jeter knows his home, but he always gets all happy when we come home from a long weekend out of town.

I am already thinking of the new years resolutions I will most likely set and fail to complete haha. But it's nice to feel like I'm getting a fresh start. Kameron got 4 A's and one C this semester!!! He IS AMAZING! So for now we will enjoy the winter break! Oh and it is turning out to be a warm winter. Hardly any snow so far!!!

Another Chapter

It seems this time of year many things start to change and new chapters of life begin. Emily moved home from Provo. She graduated beauty school and moved home as a hair dresser and eye lash extension specialist and a more mature woman, we are so proud of her for all she's accomplished! Yay Emmers!

So for her graduation they got to present models. Some girls did high fashion but emily did a "new" mom look

so I got a hair cut and color, make up and I got to wear emily's cute shirt!


This little road warrior drove 16 hours broken up 4 hours hours each day! He slept pretty much the entire way! Love the baby stage!


After the graduation we went to Tocano's with emily's friend katrina, her fiance and his sister. They resturant brings you meat on spickets and has an awesome salad bar. We had such a good time!



So on Saturday morning we got up at the crack of dawn and helped pack emily up and than had a visit with kameron's mission buddy Dustin. We then headed back to Hurricane and went to a christmas party that night. It was so much fun hanging out with people our age. There were so many kids! we had a really good time and we also got to meet little Ryan Anthony Jones, Kam's cousin Kicki's little boy, they are 3 weeks apart.

We also spent some time with grandma and grandpa Ewell. We always have such a good time when we go to Utah and always leave thinking of ways how we could move there someday...

Another chapter has closed in our lives, Kameron's most difficult semester is over and he now only has one full semster left! We now are on the hunt for an internship this summer. I feel like time is flying by, but we are so excited for each new fun thing that comes up, like christmas!!!! It'll be here before we know it!

It's the most wonderful time of the year!!

I love this season! Thanksgiving and Christmas! family and food what more could you want? This thanksgiving we went to Thatcher, I actually went down to mesa early (kam's idea) and spent the beginning of the week at Janel's house. The kids got to meet Jeter, and we just got to have a fun time with the Lamb fam! it was just what I needed!

Bri and mom came on Tuesday. My mom was supposed to have her foot surgery on wed but it didn't get scheduled? Maybe it was a good thing so we had regular mom and not a mom on drugs. the surgery was rescheduled for today! good luck mom!

we picked up emmers on wed and headed for thatcher!
Dad was sneaky and came home from his job in Nevada! he had a nasty cold, I think it was bronchitis. we had to take him to the ER tuesday night it was so bad. By the end of the week he was feeling much better!

I LOVED getting to be around bri and killian! there's always a blanket laying around and wipies at every turn! These two are just too cute!

yummy dinner!!!

we had so much fun playing games! we also had fun watching Killian pout!

I was so excited for Kameron to meet up with us on wednesday night! He is almost done with the hardest semester ever!
Janel and the kids came up Friday and us "little" girls went to see Harry Potter! so good! Janel even took family pictures of kam, jeter and I. I'm so excited to see how they turn out! And happy birthday to mom on thanksgiving day! we also helped her put up the christmas tree and decorations.
Bring on Christmas!!!
WELCOME CONNER!

baby conner arrived on thanksgiving morning! we stopped by on sunday on our way home to meet him. he's soo cute and little! I can't believe how big it makes jeter look. crazy!!!

Let it snow!

Once again my pictures are in the wrong order but oh well! It was snowing on Sunday morning, wasn't really sticking though. But it's fun to see the winter season really start to kick in! I don't think I have a good picture with Jeet yet, and since my hair is still wet I still don't know if this is a "good" picture of us.


we like to take naps after a long night of waking up, I'm usually sleeping right beside him!

just chillin


so we got this baby carrier from kam's mom. I think they look goofy but when you want to get stuff done it makes it nice to have. It's hard to get him in and out of it by yourself. But he loves being in the middle of things. He likes being carried around while I try to kitchen chores and laundry. He loves looking at the lights and I think the walking calms him.

I love this little outfit. My mom and I went to old navy while she was here...the baby section is dangerous.

we are so excited for Thanksgiving this coming weekend! Me for family time and Kameron to be done with a rigerous work/homework schedule. It will be so nice to spend time together, which is a rare occassion these days and eat lots of food!
Oh, and Jeter turned a month old on Friday! He will be 5 weeks on Tuesday and I think he's about eight lbs.! he's growing so fast!

what we do

Babies are tough. Eat--every two hours, spit up, bottle warming. Sleep--but wake up every two to three hours, with mom and dad because anywhere else just isn't good enough. Poop--on dad, on mom, in the night, in the day, and it stinks.
Now all of this was expected don't get me wrong! But living it is a lot different than just thinking about it. Good thing my body is adjusting to less sleep and I am able to function in the night a lot better.
But at the end of the day we have the cutest baby who gives us cute smiles and little coos. We just love him SO much!!
Tummy time! Jeter can turn his head side to side. Quite the accomplishment for our little boy!

bath time! Jeet had his first bath a couple of nights ago. he liked it, at first. the cold wet thing is just no fun! did I mention we need real baby bath tub?


Daddy and Jeter


After bath time is the best. All clean and warm





I have a new appreciation of moms, especially moms with more than one kid. Too bad we don't have three arms, as strange as it would look it would really come in handy *no pun intended :)

he's just so cute!
Go FSU!

Happy Halloween!

I can't believe how fast time is going by! My little Jeter will be two weeks old on Tuesday! Being a new mom is something I never could have prepared for. I've never worried about someone so much. Kameron is a great Daddy. These pictures are out of order but that's okay...

This is on Halloween and I was able to get a smile shot!

This was our halloween costum-pumpkin beanie!

This was on Saturday-trying out the swing-wasn't a fan, maybe in a month or so...

Yay for Moms! I'm so glad my mom stayed with me I never could've done this without her. Doing my laundry and cleaning my house. Just to have someone say "that's normal don't worry" was helpful! And not to mention my mom held the babies in heaven makes her the number one napping spot!

On Friday Brianna came to pick my mom up and we had a fun time introducing cousin Killian to Jeter! They're about 7-8 weeks apart.



Buddies!
