Fun and Random

I found some pictures I thought was fun!

This was the morning Scotty was born...

I think you can see the panic in my eyes! ha ha ha! I have no makeup on...
good thing my husband loves me.

This was the first date Jeff was able to take me on since Scotty was born.  Look at my HANDSOME BOYS! 

Yay for camera timers!

Anna Lisa's AMAZING Thanksgiving turkey... It tastes as good as it looks people... She is our own  Martha Stewart.

This is the 12 layer jello I made! hee hee... It does pale in comparison to the turkey...
but it tastes good!

It was so good and so pretty I put up another one... sorry...

The creator of the turkey and my cute little baby!

I realized Scotty and I hadn't taken any pictures together so I wanted to take some...
 he is so handsome...

He makes me so happy!

Some Fun Videos!

Thank you Robyn for this beautiful photo!!


I take all these videos on my phone... so these are not the best quality... I know I should get out the camera and tape these but your phone is always right by you ya know? Anyway I think I should still show you guys some fun new things of my baby! He is so cute and he is just turned two months... He is now over 13 lbs and is 25 inches long... He is a big boy, and we just love him tons... He sings with mommy during our talk time we have in the morning when we wake up, it's adorable, and he smiles and laughs so cute!





He was to cute not to video! He sat there for forever and just was so chill... I decided to put him there more often!




When I put him on his tummy and he started rolling over I was shocked! I thought I would be able to leave him without freaking out he wouldn't be there when I got back.... But it doesn't look like this it true any longer!

Jeffrey Scott Johnston Jr.

He made it! I didn't think he would but he did... I am not like Natalie and I can't sit and write an amazing blog with awesome pictures in the hospital right after he is born. Go Natalie!!!

I can tell you he was born September 8, 2010, he weighed 8 lb 1 oz, he was 20.5 inches long and he has the biggest big toe I have ever seen on a new baby! He is going to be big and tall just like his daddy!

We named him after his dad, Jeffrey Scott Johnston Jr. and we are calling him Scotty! J. Scott Johnston will make awesome business cards!

I was induced at around 10 am and he was born at around 8 at night. Not to long of a labor which is nice considering I was in labor for about 7 weeks! :) We are so happy he is healthy and here! Thank you for all of the wonderful meals, and thoughtful visits! They mean the world, and Scotty now knows how loved his family is!

Oh and the best news of today! I am officially at my pre-pregnancy weight! Now to get rid of the loose skin... ugh!

Still no baby and the world of induction!

Still no baby... Now I have the wonderful stress and option of when and how I am going to make him come out.... Doctor appt here I come!

NO BABY!

I now know how all the mom's out there felt when asked if they had had their baby yet! NO!!! I HAVEN'T!!!! I PROMISE! I would tell you!!!!! I am pretty excited to hold him though! I hope he comes tonight!

hmmmm.......

Those who know me and my past.... might get a kick out of this..... Davy was their for this... I think Garit and Dan were too.... maybe "DOCTOR VAN BLOEM" might ring a bell?

What we learn as we get older!

So it is really interesting that as we get older and gain experiences in life we learn that all our judgments are really stupid and we should shut up our... minds.....?

My baby is due in 5 days! SO SOON!!! Lately it has been all I can do to not scream out "Get this baby out of me!!!!!" Then I think of all the times I have thought, "How can you say that about your baby?!" when other women have spoken those same words! Oh how the mighty have fallen eh? But that is what life is about huh? Getting slapped in the face enough times to be humbled....

Here are some new pics ... Thought they might be fun to look at!

This is Jeff and I putting the baby crib up! This was April.....












This is Orianna's Birthday









Oh and their new son Finton! HE WAS 10 LBS!!!! WHAT?!?!?!






Here is me trying to look pretty and skinny at 8 months pregnant... July! How I wish I had appreciated what I had then! ;)





And this is my sweet husband taking me up the canyon for lunch cause he is a sweetie!

Our First Family Picture

Thanks to Ashley Van Bloem and Jefferson and Emily for having a wedding!



My husband is hot!

Emily and Jefferson

I told you I would post some real photos!

A Few Updates

So Jefferson and Emily got married yesterday... I don't have any pics to show for this except for a couple that were taken on my phone... They are not that good and don't be mad... I will put up real ones later




Emily's niece holding her dress! SO CUTE! But alas no Emily... I don't know why I don't have a shot with her in it.. It was crowded!



Our good friends Laura and Steve Thalin chatting with Jeff and I!



Jefferson stuck with the bouquet... as most grooms are...



A number of times!



Most the brothers.. Where was Caleb?

I am going backwards but that is okay! All of these pics were taken with a phone... I need to remember my camera! For my actual birthday my incredibly perfect and loving husband was his usual amazing self!



My birthday started awhile ago with the digging up of our lawn out front and the ability to add a flower bed! I couldn't be more excited! It took Jeff forever to dig this huge section of lawn up, but he did it! I helped get rocks out, and mix some steer compost in! yucky! Then I planted some flowers in it! It makes me so happy every time I see it!



Then on the day of my birthday he came home a little early from work and we started out shopping. He took me to Bed Bath and Beyond where we used some old wedding gift cards and be bought me a crepe maker! This totally cool kind that rocks! Then we went to Target to use a wedding gift card and he had me pick out some baby clothes for our little baby boy! I cried! (HEY! I am pregnant I can!)



After that he took me to PF Changs and ate a yummy dinner and I got my favorite dessert in the whole world that has coconut ice cream in the middle of berries and spring roll bananas with this awesome caramel sauce... I want some more!



But the very best part of my birthday was when we got home and I read a love note Jeff had written for me! I am so lucky to be married to such a wonderful man that makes me feel like such a special lady! I don't know how I got to be so lucky, but I did, and I am forever grateful for that! I couldn't be happier in this life Jeff has helped build for us and I can't wait for many more birthdays to come with him! (But I can wait for the wrinkles that will come with it! AH!)
