7 months old!

i can't believe this little bug is already 7 months old! kenny, we love you!

thanksgiving

i'm starting to get excited about the holidays. maybe it's because of the time off! this year i want to decorate a fun thanksgiving table. kennedy and i will be busy making these darling place cards! if you're coming to grandma jaynes for thanksgiving your better rsvp!

boo run run

our company held their annual boo run run this morning. it was a hit, we had about 175 people running with us. i think it was all about the pancakes after! vince, nice job with the awesome shirts!

hard day at work

do you ever have those day at work when you wonder why you do what you do? i do all of the time. this was definitely a hard day at work.

we're getting ready to launch a new engine product, so needless to say the video was painful!

ladies weekend

this past weekend kate, chalan and i headed up to park city for a little scrapbook...or a lot! I think we put in well over 12 hours. i got a lot done. thanks for the fun time girls! and a big thanks goes out to our wonderful husbands for tending the munchkins while we played.

my little pumpkin

there's just something great about this time of year! it could be that i love anything and everything pumpkin!
i especially love this little pumpkin. we took kennedy to get a pumpkin on saturday, and she wasn't very impressed!

weekend at kamrys

this past weekend we spent the night at my sisters house in heriman. while we we're there we did a little sewing and we visited the leonardo for the body worlds exhibit.

lanney refused to let kennedy get near her bed, so kam and kenney spent the night on the floor together. thanks kam!
torre had seen two little girls wearing the cutest halloween dresses, so she took a picture and we recreated them for our own little ones. we're going to make the girls matching dresses for our thanksgiving dinner.
we had attempted to go to bodyworlds a few weeks before and they were sold out. lanney was so upset! she started to cry, she told us all she wanted to do was eat dinner and see dead people!

thanks for the fun weekend chavis, torre, kam, and lanney! we had so much fun!

the wonderful waikoloa village

here's a few more pics of the hotel, or should i say small village that i'm staying in. Last night i had few hours to myself so i walked from one end to the other...it took an hour.


lessons learned on this trip:
1. never listen to shin when she tells you its only a one hour drive...it's more like 3 or 4!
2. never purchase your gifts at hilo hatties, there's a reason they are going out of business.
3. costco no matter where you are in the world is still one of the coolest place to shop.

the big island

this is the beautiful scene I woke up to this morning. today we are going to explore the island before we getting into meeting mode. I'll post more pictures of our wonderful hotel tonight.

mike and baby "K" i miss you! love you lots!

new pictures

so it's been awhile since i've posted so i'm going to post just some random pics to show off my little darling.
kennedy just got her 4 month shots, she was a trooper...I think daddy cried more!


here's kennedy with her grandma jayne, and great grandma flora at our cousin jason's wedding.

kennedy is such a big girl, she rolls all over the place.


kennedy loves to play dress up!

put it on my tab


so it all started thursday when i got a ticket for speeding. yuck!! 80$ ticket!! and not to go into too much detail but it was a lame speeding ticket! the road goes from 35-50 and i hit 50 about 20 yards before the speed limit changed. then today we were coming home from salt lake and mike gets pulled over for speeding!! seriously...put it on my tab. the best thing was when the officer asked for his insurance and registration, what do you know, they were sitting on the back seat of my car with the previous ticket. mike kept apologizing! i just laughed, what could i say, i got one two days before! so it looks like we will both be in traffic school, too bad they were in different county's or we could have a really fun date night together!

welcome

meet my sister torre and her darling little girls on her new blog spot! welcome to the world of blogging!

labor day camping

for labor day we headed up to the koosharem guard station to do a little camping. kennedy was such a sport! she rode on the four wheeler, and even did a little hiking!


guilty pleasure

so we've all got them...guilty pleasures!! i started watching one tree hill a year ago. it all started when i got pregnant. i would go home to nap at lunch and i found this lovely on the soap channel. in the past year i've been able to watch the first four seasons. this weekend i plan on watching all of season five. i can't wait!

so what's your guilty pleasure...please share!

fresh vacuum lines


i have to admit one of my favorite things is fresh vacuum lines in my carpet, crazy i know! i almost get giddy over it! well this weekend i went to see my brother in st. george. while i was away mike did some serious cleaning so that when i came home all of the weekend chores were done! what a man! he vacuumed, dusted, and cleaned the bathrooms. he even cleaned my shower...my least favorite thing to clean. thanks so much babe!!

on a side note, i'm looking for a cleaning lady. if any of you have a good contact, please pass it along.

baby "K" loves hers!! she has to watch her back though...it often comes up missing! lanney and Brooklyn are generally the culprits! i'm glad they love babycakes as much as she does!


actual conversation…NO KIDDING!

Just to be nice I’m going to keep this special individuals name private…why, I don’t know!

So tonight at our quarterly primary activity I was approached by a lady while I was quietly sitting in the back of the room rocking my baby to sleep…minding my own business. The conversation went like this.

Lady: So how old is your baby?
Me: 3 months
Lady: She’s beautiful.
Me: Thanks, I think so too!
Lady: I’m a mother too and a mother by choice.
Me: Yep it’s pretty fun .

(I’m really thinking bad choice lady you’re a wack job! Plus the conversation at this point was getting awkward! Close talker!!)

Lady: So what does your husband do?
Me: He works for Sapa Engineering.
Lady: That’s nice.

LONG AWKWARD PAUSE

Lady: So I assume you stay home with your baby?
Me: No, I work full time for a company called Neways International.
Lady: OH!

No kidding…I could actually see here shaking her head! I quietly excused myself and walked away. Obviously this made her very nervous because not even ten minutes later here she comes again with more questions. Frankly…mind your own business!

Lady: So who tends your baby?
Me: A babysitter???

At this point I’m thinking of telling her I leave her at home in the kennel with my dogs!

Lady: So do you work the weekend too? And do you work a full 40 hours?
Me: No I have the weekends off, but yes I work 40+ hours a week at work.
Lady: OH! So have you been around kids at all?
Me: Yes.
Lady: So you know what you’re doing then?
Me: I guess??

What do you say to that…no, I don’t know what the hell I’m doing. You’re the expert stay at home mom, would you like to teach me?

Lady: So many people just have babies and then they don’t know how to take care of them, so I was just asking. Is your baby a good baby?
Me: She’s great!
Lady: You must be a relaxed mom, there’s only one problem with that. The kids generally turn out to be out of control. That happens so much. It’s too bad.

Seriously! At this point I’m thinking, no, it’s too bad I’m actually having this conversation with you. I politely excused myself thinking WOW! Did I actually just have that conversation?? This is why I have to give myself a pep talk before any church function. So if any of you out there were wonder if I’m going back to work or not, the answer is yes. Now you can save yourself the question, and possibly a really awkward conversation!

who's tending who?

mike told me he would baby sit while i went out to lunch with some friends. when I came home i could here kennedy chatting away in the bed room. mike was dead asleep (he had just worked all night) and kennedy was laying next to him playing away

like father like daughter

sorry babies! from the looks on your faces your not loving the sun!!

kennedy's blessing
