Baby Boy is 3!!!

check out his birthday boy shirt! 


this is all he ate of his cupcake...
...then he went and got an orange


jackson got a little too close to his morning pancake candles,
 so he took off when we lit his cupcake and did this little dance while we sang.
 it was so hilarious!

Jackson Birthday Pancakes

We always have birthday "panacakes" with candles.  Jackson really didn't enjoy the candles after he got a little too close, so he is covering his eyes.  but he did enjoy his whole wheat chocolate chip panacakes.

family pictures?


getting a photo of my children together is very hard.  its even harder when their dad is not there to make everyone laugh while i snap the picture.  we went to mt timpanogos on monday night to try to get some family shots.  jackson thought is was great fun, until he realized i would not let him go running down the steep incline and into the rushing river full of rocks.  so this is him telling me how happy he is about having to sit and take a picture.  needless to say, i was not successful in getting  good picture of all of them together. but we did get some other good shots and we had a good time and ice cream when we got home.

Jackson Hour


we often have what i like to think of as the 'jackson hour'.  we just watch him and play and laugh.  this night he was having a blast jumping over the kids. he makes us laugh so much. so grateful he is here.

City Creek

we went the new city creek mall in salt lake city a few weeks ago.  
the coolest part were these fountains and a little 'creek' running through the outdoor mall.
