Saturday Morning Breakfast

Recently we have started a new tradition of having Saturday morning breakfast as a family. During the week we never eat breakfast together and it has been hard to coordinate family dinners together between gymnastics, church meetings, and me feeling too sick to cook. I usually feel pretty good in the mornings so now we have Saturday Morning breakfast to kick off our Saturday mornings. This also helps with our usual desire to lay around the house and do nothing on Saturday mornings. It has been a really great thing to do! Usually I cook a good breakfast, but we have also gone to Denny's with the kids which they love. I has been nice to sit down together the way my mom always had us do. It's amazing the things you learn when you sit down as a family- just this morning Wes told us that Tutti started with a "T" and Bum starts with a "B". I hope in the future I can be better about juggling all the activites and meetings and make sure we have a family dinner every night ( it's only going to get harder from here).

Ode to Jamers Video

One more addition to the Jamers birthday post is a video that to me personifies our little boy and what he is all about. Mind you this video was taken when he was only weeks after his first birthday. Not to spoil it but the steak in his hands was at least 4oz and he ate the entire thing over the course of an hour or so. We realize we should have taken it away from him, but it was just too funny and we were curious to see how much he would eat.

Happy Birthday Jamers!

It took me two weeks to get this post up- but it's up. I lost the charger to our camera and thus had to borrow my sister-in-law's camera on Jamers birthday. I can't believe that we have had our little James for two years, but I also don't remember our family without him. He brings alot of excitment and endless energy to our life and we are so thankful to him. He is the ultimate Daddy's boy and he still calls me "Daddy" most of the time too. James is always so excited when Tay comes home and runs and SCREAMS Daddy!! Daddy!! Anyone who knows Jamers knows that his scream isn't something that you can ignore. He loves and plays hard and adores his older brother. They play secret games in the closet like "movie theatre" where they bring the portable DVD player in the closet and watch a show in the dark. For Jameson's birthday we had a Little Einsteins birthday party since he is in love with Rocket. We had all the cousins over and some friends from our ward. James loved his party! We love our little boy and are so thankful for his love and his personality in our lives. He is truly one of a kind. Love you Jamers! Here are some pics from his birthday.


Jamers favorite gift- his Rocket! I look a little crazy because I didn't get to shower that day due to many party planning mishaps.

Jamers riding in the back of another favorite- a huge truck. Now when I tell him its time for bed he gets his sippy and blankie and puts it in the big truck and pushes it to his bed.


Cake time! Always a good time in our house. Notice my prego belly in the backround.

I know he doesn't look thrilled- but he really did love his cake- the singing not so much - but the cake he loved.
