Worse then the Hjorten's at blogging

Just wanted to say that we are way worse then Cami at updating our blog. It is January and we still have Halloween on the page. I will try and work on that is week. Hope everyone is having a wonderful new year.

A new helment

2 at last

Another birthday past for the year. Jhett turned two on Friday. We had a great day!!! Jhett walked around all day singing "Happy to Me" He loves the birthday song and has had plenty of opportunity to sing the song to half the family in the last few months. The kids and I made a mickey mouse birthday cake for him and he blew out the candles 4 or 5 times. He even blew out the flame on our candle on the counter a few time when he got up in the morning. When we told him it was his birthday that day he wanted to "blow candles" first thing. He is really getting to be a big boy and can tell us what he wants. Sometimes the things he says are amazing. I guess having so many older brothers and sisters helps his vocabulary!!!! We are sure glad he is apart of our family!!

Only Two Months

Well it has only been 2 months since I last posted anything. We have been busy doing all kinds of great things. Since then, Jaxon has turned 6, Shelby has turned 12. We have been to Utah 2 times for two quick weekends. I started my second year of teaching preschool with two classes instead of one, figured out how to make cute scripture bags that Tracy saw at a craft fair(they were $75.00 there...mine cost about $5-8) and had 16 people stay the night one night, with 13 of them being children. Not to mention PTO, church, BYU games and Aubri's running around now that Best Robotic has started up again. I am never bored!!!! Everyone is doing well and we are excited for the cooler weather. Jhett's birthday is coming up, basketball season will start soon with Kielee and Konner playing and we are trying to think of something great to do for the old man in our house who will turn 40 next month. If you have any great ideas, let us know. (Kevin never reads this blog so we don't have to worry about him!!)

Moving UP

Jhett is becoming a little man these days, he is cleaning the bathrooms,(well if you count spraying the mirrors with a squirt bottle and using a make-up brush to smear it all over, or dumping all the liquid soap on the counter playing in it.)carrying a phone on his hip and talking to everyone, and sleeping in a big boy bed. Yes Jhett is out of his crib and sleeping in a bed. Kevin and I went out and made the exciting purchase of a new twin size bed. Shelby was really happy because we gave her the new bed and Jhett got her old one. He doesn't go to sleep any better then he did last week but he still goes to sleep before midnight and he still takes a nap which I am really grateful for.

School starts continued

I didn't have enough room to add all the picture to the last post. Thought you would enjoy a few more.

Walking up to the school

Jhett is always ready to take a picture.

Aubri was already at school but here is the rest of the troop before the day begun.
