The proud big brothers!!

Daddy's girl

Home!!!!

We are so happy to have her here!! She is so sweet and content. The labor and delivery could not have gone smoother, if anything it was probably my easiest delivery. She only lost 2 oz. in the hospital so that shows you that she came out knowing what to do. She is such a good eater!! I can't believe how much hair she has, it was a surprise, my boys didn't have anything close to this amount. She has dimples just like her big brother Tyler. We love her so much!!!! She has definitely been worth the wait. It has been nice and calm at our house because my parents have kept the boys until today and we have been home since Friday. So the chaos is about to begin but I am looking forward to it, because I miss my boys!!

Car wash

Yesterday afternoon Jason decided that his car needed a car wash, and we thought that the kids needed something to do!! They had so much fun!

Brycen was the funniest because he didn't end up with a wash cloth, but he didn't care!!

*There are about 4 or more posts below! Enjoy!

Ha ha

This is how Dad watches cartoons with the boys!

Lazy Saturdays

On Saturday mornings I frequently find the boys all sitting right next to each other watching cartoons!! I am so glad that they are buddies most of the time.

These mornings usually mean that Dad is home. They love to go out on the tramp and wrestle with him and knock him over!!

So fun!!

Preschool

This year Jaxon got to start preschool. We are doing a joy school with some of his neighborhood friends. We have 4 boys and 1 girl!

I teach twice a month! This is one of our very first art projects!!! Painting apple trees with their handprints as tree trunks!! As you can tell Brycen thinks he is part of preschool!! He loves it too! It is fun to be with these kids and watch them learn how to do new things!!

Peach Days

At the beginning of September we went to the Peach Days parade in Brigham City! It was fun I didn't take many pictures but here are a couple.

Look at that I was able to get all of the cousins sitting down all in one picture!! PLus Great-Grandma and Grandpa.
The cute boys stading for the flag!! They flag came by like 3 or 4 times and everytime these cute boys would stand for everyone.

*As much as I don't want to remember this I figured should document it. I am sure it has happened to most moms. When we first got there we had to wait on the corner for the police to shut down the street so we could sit down. When we could go out there we picked up all of our stuff and started out across the street. We got everyone's chair's where they wanted them, then I sit down. I look around notice that Jaxon is not there. I panic and look around can't see him close by. My dad and I take off to look for him. Thankfully I found him all the way across the street a little bit past the corner. He was standing there hugging his chair to him looking really sad!! I am so thankful that he stopped and noticed we weren't with him!! It still makes me so sad to think about it!! The look on his face makes me so sad!!

Tyler's 1st real bike ride!!

This is the 1st real try Tyler did without training wheels! Too bad it was all he would do!! He is doing so great!!!

1st Grade and 2 years old

My Tyler started 1st grade on August 15th. It is so weird to have him gone. The weeks before school started, if asked about school, he would say that he wasn't excited! I think that he was just really anxious to be there all day! Yesterday on the way to school he told me that "school is really fun" I was so relieved when he told me that! He also told me that he was going to earn his "bear bucks" everyday. Which means that he was going to be good everyday to earn them! It makes me so happy that he wants to do well in school! We are so proud of him!!!

I realized that all his school pictures are going to look that same because of the uniforms. I think he looks so much like his dad in this picture!

Tyler with some of the boys from his Kindergarten class, waiting in line the first day!
My little guy turned 2 on Sunday!! He was so funny at the party because he was loving that the attention was all on him! He was running all over and having lots of fun with his cousins.
My mom this year has given all the kids a pillowcase with their present inside. With this present he just kept peeking inside then putting it down again. He loved that everyone thought that was so funny!!

His favorite toy from us, a basketball hoop he can actually make a basket in!

His cake!

Getting ready for dad to light the candles!! He was able to blow them out this year all by himself!! So cute!! He has grown up so much! He can pretty much say anything, and is getting good at putting more words into sentences! He loves to run and jump! He loves to tease his older brothers. He loves to eat fruit, goldfish crackers, yogurt, he has started to help saying prayers, he loves to sing songs with actions with help! He is really good at throwing fits for no reason!! He still does not like to do to nursery, hopefully he will soon, but I don't see that happening anytime soon! We love him so much, he makes us laugh everyday! It would not be the same without him in our home!!!

Angel Moroni

Today we had a wonderful, and unique experience to go up to Brigham City to see them put the Angel Moroni on the temple! To see the temple go up where I grew up is just amazing! I was so thankful to be there with my family (minus Jason, Heidi, and James). What a blessing it is to be so close to this beautiful temple and all the other temples we have so close! We started out our day meeting at 11 to a light rain, nothing we were to concerned about! By the time we got to the temple about 15 minutes later it was pouring. It didn't dampen our spirits though! The rain stopped about noon, but then the wind started picking up. We didn't know if we would get to see it go up today. They kept taking the crane with men up to check the wind levels, then they would come back down! By 1 they had un hooked the statue, so we headed back to the high school, where my dad works, for bathroom breaks and something to eat. We still didn't know if they would put it up. My brother stayed there and called us around 2, we moved as fast a we could but by the time we got up there the statue was over the steeple. We may have not been able to see them move it up there in person, but we were still there to see it up there! I asked my 4 year old what his favorite part of the day was and he told me, "that is was seeing the Angel Moroni" I hope one day that my boys really understand and remember this experience!

One of the workers came over by the fence and took our camera inside and took this great picture for me!
Some of us waiting in the rain!

Brycen staying somewhat dry!

This was a teaser, they lifted if about this high for awhile, while they tested the wind. Then set it down!

The boys thought this was sure fun, us moms didn't love the fact that they were playing in a really dirty puddle. But it kept them company so what can you do!

Attaching the rod to the spire and getting it ready to the set on! This process ended up taking quite a bit of time and the boys were done so we headed back!! I will forever remember this experience, that I will probably never see again!

The 4th!

Our 4th was the same as most years but great. We watch a lot of softball, watch a parade, hang out with family, and watch fireworks!

Waiting for the parade to start, his favorite part was the motorcycles!
About half to the Jacobsen cousins!! So fun!!

L. Tom Perry was in our parade! My mom works at the city and helped put the parade this year, we asked her how she got him to come her response was, "I asked him." I just wish I would have been able to go the the fireside he did on Sunday night!! I told Tyler that an apostle would be there his reply was "a real one." So fun to watch the kids learn about the church!

Waiting for the fireworks playing games!

Eating

and more eating!

Brycen like the fireworks that people were setting off before the big ones. When the big ones started he was scared and snuggled right into me. Slowly he would peak and look and then snuggle right back in, finally he fell asleep!! We had a great 4th, we hope you did too!!

The Brigham City Temple

For my nieces birthday my sister in law Karen thought it would be fun to get the cousins together and play at the park and go and walk around the temple!! It has been so fun to watch this temple go up!!

All the kids, minus Cade!
The boys had fun watching the men work on it. While we were there the big crane lifted the piece they are working on into place! The boys were in heaven!

The front of the Temple! So pretty!

The Aquarium and Dinosaur Museum

I didn't take a lot of pictures here because it was so dark, but here are a few!

"Fishies, Fishies" That is all the he said, he was so happy!

Same for the dinosaur museum, not a ton of pictures!

Brycen's favorite part "tunnel, tunnel"

There is that silly smile again!

He is getting so big!!

The Zoo!

Our 2nd day of fun!!

Waiting for dad to buy our tickets.
Waiting in line for the train!

Dad and Jaxon (this is the only smile I really got fun Jaxon)

Mom with Brycen and Tyler. If you look at Brycen's right hand, he is holding on as tight as he could and we were not even moving yet!! ha ha

Jason with the boys watching baby Zuri!

Brycen watching baby Zuri with her mom!

Every single one of them was worried and scared, they all held on for dear life!! They are always so cautious. I had to hold Brycen while standing there, and he still didn't like it!!

The boys favorite part was the bird show!! They all watched and laughed and were so happy.
