Congrats to Marci and Jon!!!

Here is how they made their wonderful announcement!! Coming soon...in May!! Austin will have another little cousin to play with!!

Awesome curling iron!!! GET ONE!!!

Check out how amazing this curling iron is!! go to www.enzomilano.com They are about $100 on this website, but I can get one for you for only $40 (including tax and shipping and handling) if you want one! They also come in pink! I could have it shipped directly to your house if you want. They have a lifetime warranty so if you break it in five years, they will send you a brand new one (and supposedly they will be coming out with one that has an MP3 player in it, I think i'll purposely break mine to get the new, updated version!) I curled my hair yesterday morning, and it is still curled right now!! It doesn't burn your hair like most curling irons! It is a professional curling iron and the best one I've ever used! You can even brush your curls and they stay in! I can get you the 1" or the 1/2" or both. So let me know what you want!!! It would make a GREAT Christmas gift!

Well, yesterday was my first day back to school. So I might not be posting everyday like I have been. Life just got too busy! It wasn't as hard to leave Austin as I thought it would be (everyone told me I was going to cry). But it defintely was a hard day! My students were all wild! One student stole a rotary cutter (what's that? it's like a pizza cutter, but WAY sharper, for cutting fabric) and another student, or maybe the same student, stole the magnet out of my pin holder (so now it's worthless). Today was much better because I put the students in a seating chart and was more organized. Both days at school I've been watching videos of Austin all day on my phone! It makes me smile. And I get so excited to go home and see him. Our neighbor, Marie Gale, is babysitting him. She has a six month old, Macguire, there is a picture of him in an earlier post. I'm so grateful for her, and she does a wonderful job! I'm going to go research right now about starting a preschool because I'm planning on starting one next year. Let me know if you know anything about starting a preschool. I would love all the advice I can get! Well, here are some cute pictures of our growing little boy. Enjoy!!

Thank you everyone that came to Austin's blessing!


He wore the same blessing outfit that Daddy wore. Looking through the pictures I realized we didn't get a good picture of it, so I'm going to have to dress him up and take another picture of the outfit!


Jeremy's side of the family:

My side of the family (they all traveled from Idaho Falls):

A lot of our friend's had already left before we started taking pictures! There were 13 priestood holders in the circle! It was pretty cool to see that many people that love and care about Austin!!

Happy Halloween!!!

We were trying to get a picture with Austin and his Halloween pumpkin pacifier, and he kept spitting it out. Jessie would put it in his mouth and out it would pop! We finally got one though (but it's already starting to come out, as you can see)





Here are all the cute outfits Austin wore on Halloween!














I am a Giraffe!!!

See my cute little tail??




Okay, so the clown isn't Austin! That is Uncle Hanko!!

More socializing!

Wow! Austin is a ladies man! Here he is with two girls in our ward! Rachel and Kiara (may have spelt that wrong) (Kee-are-a) He is bigger than both of them (they are both under 12 lbs) and they are both about 3 months old!

Here is Rachel:














Here is Kiara:














Thank you Misty for making me this carseat cover! I absolutely love it!!! Misty is Rachel's mom and she makes these ADORABLE car seat covers. They sell for $65 so I am soooo lucky that she made me one!

Yes, he really is that cute!!!

This is my favorite picture of Austin! Daddy was getting him to smile! Austin smiles all the time! Pretty much whenever we try and get him to smile! It is so fun!












These are Austin's friends. Macguire is 6 months old, Austin is 1 month old, and Jackson is 3 months old. Macquire weighs 17 lbs, Austin weighs 13 pounds, and Jackson weighs 10 lbs. This really shows you how big of a boy Austin is!

Austin was being camera shy!!! Cute little Macguire sure wasn't!!!
