Three Months Old

Ashton turned three months old today! He has grown so much too! He went from a small 5 lbs 13 oz. to 12 lbs 2 oz! Even though he has grown so much he is still below average in weight, head size, and height. He is 29 percentile in weight, 19 percentile in head size and only 12 percentile in height! He has made some progress in the last two days with being alert. Just barely he went from sleeping all day always to being awake for at least 4-5 hours altogether. He doesn't like us keeping him lying down anymore, he wants to sit up (with our help) and explore the gift of sight. He enjoys his goo-goo's and ga-ga's and loves to smile and flirt with you! He found the joy of sucking on his fists a month ago and uses it especially when he is hungry and I can't get to him fast enough. He has brought so much joy into our family! Chandler loves to caress Ashton's arms, hug him and love him! Vanessa will try to feed Ashton a bottle to show that she can help out, and she asks for her daily holding of Ashton! They are such good siblings! We will keep you posted on his progress each month!

I Love to See the Temple!

Sebu the Blue

On Friday, June 1st we welcomed our new addition to the family, a little blue deer head chihuahua. We found him at Gizmos Chihuahuas, a breeder from Las Vegas. The Breeder drove our new pup all the way out here so we wouldn't have to ship him since that can be very stressful on a puppy. We named him Sebu (pronounced say-boo) the Blue, he is named after a song called "Sebu" from Veggietales. He is adorable; he has such a cute face and a fun little personality. Although, I was a little disappointed on his size! He is not much smaller than TiKa, we were hoping that he'd end up her size but he is already 2 lbs. 6 oz. at 10 weeks old! TiKa was barely a pound at that age. But he'll be able to withstand the kids easier with the extra weight. According to the chihuahua weight chart he'll end up about 6 lbs. as an adult. The breeder said that he would be only 3-4 lbs as an adult since his parents are about that. He came from two apple head chihuahuas, the dad's name is Malcom, a blue and white chihuahua and the mommy's name is Mandy, a tan chihuahua. Vanessa and Chandler really like him. We bought this puppy for Dave, so it is his chihuahua. He is coming along on potty-training and doing very well with eating and drinking! We are really excited to have him!

Happy Birthday TiKa!!!

Well who is TiKa? WiKa TiKa Boo is our 3.2 lb. purebred black/tan chihuahua. Not many people know we have her because when people come over we don't dare to let her out and about because of her small size. TiKa came to us by plane from Hemp, Texas back in July of last year. The kids thought it was so neat to meet their new puppy at the airport! TiKa was my early graduation gift. I was a little nervous about the potty training while I was a full-time student still but she aced it in a week! So TiKa turned a year old today and she probably won't gain any more weight, unless she decides to eat a whole lot more! We love having TiKa as a part of our family. She loves playing with Vanessa and Chandler. She dodges them pretty good when they are running around. Vanessa and Chandler are pretty gentle with TiKa, with her being so small. TiKa knows the basic commands and is very eager to learn more new tricks in the future! We plan on her growing old with us! Happy Birthday TiKa! We love you!

Fun at Arctic O

Today we enjoyed having our lunch at Arctic Circle with Becky and her son Jacen (20 months old) along with my friend Kimberly and her sons Ciaran (3 yrs. old) and Cabhan (pronounced Cavin, who is 22 mo. old). We enjoyed the food and the kids enjoyed the playground after we finished eating. It's fun to watch the kids and see how their personalities come out. Vanessa made friends with everyone and two boys especially took a liking to her. (What am I going to do when she becomes a teenager?!) Chandler obviously doesn't like crowds, he even told us that he hates the kids (a word that Vanessa picked up from preschool and only said once, now Chandler is always saying it and we're trying to fix that). He is a bit timid and shy and takes awhile to warm up, but Dave said he was exactly like that when he was Chandler's age so it really shouldn't bother me now. Jacen seems to be a little like Chandler, but I think we have to wait a little longer to see how he turns out. Ciaran and Cabhan are pretty easy-going kids, Cabhan was a little tired and sad. We really did have a fun time!


What a fun Group!

Twinkle, Twinkle little CAR!

Twinkle, Twinkle little CAR! How I wonder what you CAR! Up above the world so CAR! Like a diamond in the CAR! Twinkle, Twinkle little CAR!
How I wonder what you CAR!

Uhhhh, wait a minute! That’s not how it goes!
What is up with that?
Well, you might just want to ask the car obsessive, Chandler! Chandler loves cars! He sleeps with them; he chews the tires off of them, he teethes on them, he loves them! He has them! So every time mommy sings, “Twinkle, Twinkle little star” to him each night, Chandler sneaks in the word “CAR” at the end of each verse! Talk about car obsessive!

Oliver Winston Glass

5-11-07: After I had my graduation I heard that my sister-in-law, Lenora had been admitted to the hospital because she was in labor and was scheduled to have her baby boy by c-section at 4 p.m. I didn't get to hear about the baby until after 6 p.m. Little Oliver Winston was born at 5:30 p.m.

not only was Oliver a pound bigger than Ashton by 6 lbs. 13 oz. they were also exactly two months apart!!! Oliver is a cutie! He looks really similar to his older brother, Elliott! Lenora and Ben are really excited to have a new little baby boy!

Mother's Day

We spent Mother's day with my side of the family and had a wonderful time. We had a barbeque on the grill with lots of yummy food. We gave and received simple fun gifts. We have such great relationships with my brothers and sisters that there is seldom a boring moment. We love to rile up each other and joke around! It's the best of times. I am really thankful to have the family I have! I am grateful to have the Mother I have. No other mother is quite like my mom, Janet. She makes life interesting and fun. What other mother has taken their daughter toilet papering when they were young? ha ha! I love it! My friends loved my mom growing up and would bragg about her! She is continually loved! Thanks mom! Thanks for being you! (Dave missed out on the pictures because he was feeding Ashton and watching the Utah Jazz game.)

My Graduation!!!!!

On Friday, May 11th, 2007 I finally walked the walk and graduated from Salt Lake Community College in Barbering and Cosmetology!!!! But I didn't walk quietly, and who would when you have fought the fight to get to this point? On the stage after my name was announced, I stopped and looked out at the crowd, threw my arms up in the air and screamed as loud as I could. I did it for the long hours at school but really was considered "work!" I did it for having three children through out school! I did it because as I got closer to being done with school, it got that much harder! I did it for when I was pregnant with Ashton; I went to school from 8 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. with only an hour break, my pregnancy made me so tired that for the break I slept in the back of my car! I did it because I made it through the toughest times to get here! I did it with honors! I did it!!!

Thank you for all those who supported me, especially my husband Dave, who paid for my schooling and encouraged me to keep on keeping on! I have surely been blessed!

Graduation was awesome! My graduation class was over 3,000 graduates! The ceremony was awesome with the theme of "You raise me up", which is also a song by Josh Groban and sung by one of the students at SLCC.

My parents treated me to lunch at the Macaroni Grill, which was delish! I had a wonderful day, not to mention a brand new nephew to top it off!!!!

Here I am with Dave!

Brittany and I!
