Doctor, Doctor....


Millie's 9 Month Dr's appointment went well, considering the shots and all.
Date: 6-26-08
Length: 28in (50%)
Weight: 16lbs 1 oz (5%)
Head Circ: 43.2 cm (25%)

Millie seems so big to us, but the charts says she's just a little one!
She did well with the shots, Jax on the other hand was a bit concerned that she had to get a couple - what a cute big brother!!

A trip to the DENTIST!!

A few weeks ago Jaxon had a Dentist appointment. The last few times he has gone, he really didn't like the dentist, he wouldn't let the nurse take X-rays, he didn't want the dentist to look at his teeth and Kent had to come just to hold him down. I had forgotten about his appointment, so it was too late for Kent to get time off work, i was pretty worried so i had my Mum come and sit with Millie. Jaxon surprised me and did so AWESOME. He let them take his X-rays, he let them clean his teeth, and he let the Dentist look at his teeth......all without crying!! Yeah Jaxon - you are getting to be so big.
Waiting for the Dentist to check him out - no cavities!! Yeah!!

Watching a movie while he waits

He got to be in the CAR's room - Jax though it was GREAT!!

Splish Splash....

Millie & Jaxon were having so much fun in the tub tonight, i couldn't help but snap a few pictures.


Jaxon was being so cute playing with Millie

Tonight Millie showed us a couple new tricks, standing up to reach for the Shampoo....And when she got thirsty, she just got herself a drink! Yummy!!
Jaxon with his soap beard.
All clean and ready for bed. You are both so cute!!!

A must see blog......

I admit i am a blog stalker.....i click from one persons blog to another, i become fascinated in people's lives, people i don't even know. One day as i was "stalking" i came across a blog, i don't even remember how....but i am so glad that i did. I faithfully have read this blog everyday ever since i found it. I have shed tears as i have read of this families trials. About a month ago they lost their almost 14 month daughter to an accidental drowning in their backyard spa (they had only had it for 5 days) The mum has wrote on her blog almost everyday since she lost her daughter. She is one of the strongest women i know. Even though i have never met her, i feel a bond with her.....she is my sister in the gospel and i am thankful for her strength to share her trials with so many people. This blog will make you want to hug your children a little longer and try a little harder to be the person you are meant to be. Check it out at www.adailyscoop.blogspot.com (make sure you read the comments as well, you will not believe how many people's life this has touched.)

Together FOREVER

On Thursday July 3rd, we were sealed in the Mt Timpanogos Temple. It was such a wonderful day and spiritual experience. Jaxon and Millie behaved so good and looked so beautiful all in white. Our close family and friends were able to share the day with us and we are so thankful for all the support that we received. We are thankful for the Gospel and for the knowledge we have that families are FOREVER!!

Lost - never to be found!

So, you may be wondering where are my Lake Powell pictures.... well they are in a garbage can somewhere. My memory card was in an envelope and i threw it away thinking it was an empty envelope!! I know i am a dummy! But that is not even the worst of it! Our computer had a virus and i ended up losing ALL MY PICTURES!! Yes, i hadn't printed alot of them or put them on a disk to save!! So all the pictures i had of Millie as a newborn - GONE, Pics of Trips - GONE, Pics of my family - GONE!!!!! I am sick to my stomach - almost a whole years worth of pictures are gone, never to be found!! I have learned my lesson - as soon as i put them on my comp i am going to save them to a disk. I am probably the only one who doesn't so this!! On a brighter note at least i have the pics from my blog!!
