I'm an Esme!

I am a little slow and kind of an anti-book person. I just have a hard time finding the time to sit down and really read. I have owned the Twilight book for over a year and just recently have read the series. I love them. I can not wait for the movie to come out! I love Edward but I love Jacob too! Sheesh! Any how I took a little quiz and

Auntie Jessica's

Every year (Yes all three of them)Nicks little sister Jessica has thrown Xander a fabulous party. Every year they get a little more extravagant. This year our favorite Auntie Jess rented a Ginormous bounce house equipped with a 20 foot jump room, indoor and outdoor basketball hoops and a two story slide. It was star wars themed and Jess had blow-up light sabers with red lights in them. The kids LOVED them. Jess cooked us BBQ Ribs and cookies and cakes and all sorts of wonderful food! We are so lucky to have such a loving family! Next year I am going to put my foot down and he will only be allowed to have have one, MAYBE two birthday parties!

P.S. The child is totally potty trained. #1, #2, dry all night!!!! Miracles really do happen!

My baby is getting so BIG!

Xan is going to be turning 3 on Monday. He is reaching all of these milestones and I just dont want him to grow up! He just got his first big boy hair cut. He has such beautiful thick wavy surfer "Kowabunga" hair that I just could never bring myself to do it. Well this last week I took him to Kristina and we took the plunge. He is beyond horrible when we take him, and his hair grows so fast I figured it was time to go short. He looks so handsome but so grown up!

He also has all of a sudden decieded that he should be potty trained. Yep. Like over night, he went from diapers to big boys without one accident. (Cross your fingers) even through the night.

Sunday we are going to Salt Lake to Auntie Jess's house for his annual Aunt Jess B-day party! It's gonna be fun and I will take lots of pictures.

Till then I will tell you all of my favorite things about Xander Nixon Jones....

• He always wakes up so happy! "my sun, my sun is awake mommy!"



• He gives the best kisses ever!



• He tells me probably 50 times a day that he loves me.



• He only eats 2 things..... Hot "dotdogs" and Chocolate milk



• He Loves Legos Starwars



• When he goes potty he says "Wait. I hear something! I hear potty mommy"



• When he is not body slamming and karate chopping his sisters face...he really does love her



• He loves his Daddy...whenever he hears a Harley, any Harley, he runs to the door to see if Nick has gotten home.

We LOVE having Xan in our life! We would never be the same without him!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY!

Eastern Idaho State Fair 08

This may just be the last year that our kids will sit in strollers at the fair and we took full advantage of it. Xan actually preferred to be in his stroller, The little lazy kid didn't want to ride the rides either. Good thing we didn't buy him the $30 wrist band that we almost got him. He is only tall enough to ride 6 rides any how.
Easton, River, and Jaxon also came with us to ride the rides.

Kynlee was a bit hesitant on the merry go round but she had fun by the end!

River rode with Xan. He wasn't super happy cause he wanted to ride by himself but being the over protective mother that I am, I wouldn't let him. Maybe next year :)
Kynlee had a great time, although her piggy tails didn't make it past the parking lot.
Xander had decided that he is too big for naps. Guess this one just snuck up on him!

I WANT TO RIDE!!!!
See ya next year fair!

Mini Gamers

So my kids are 1 and 2, almost 3 and they love love love video/computer games. Tonight we were out to grandmas and they were so cute trying to play "Chumbob andPatrick". The happiness lasted all of about two seconds before Kynlee got bored and jumped up and turned off the playstation, which made Xander burst into tears instantly.

Well it was cute for a min.

Can't keep them clean

Seriously do any of you know how to keep a child clean. All of the pictures of my kids lately involve dirt, food, or both. Usually both.

Do all kids need three baths a day? Or is that only mine?
