Dawson is well on his way here!


Well, there's baby Dawson starting to poke out! Being able to feel him squirm and kick makes being pregnant more exciting. He definately is kicking a lot! (it's like he never stops) The doctor says he's a pretty active fellow! The other day Jenny could feel a constant poke for about 1-1/2 hours! We kept pushing to get him to stop, but nothing seemed to work, it was just a constant almost annoying poke. Come to find out he had the hick-ups! Hahaha! He also starts to kick no matter what time of the day, if someone or something is pushing even the slightest bit on Jenn's stomach, he just kicks until nothing is pushing on her stomach anymore. We've decided that he must really like his space! :) We only have 3 months left! But Jenn keeps saying that he's active because he's so excited to see us, so she feels that he is going to come earlier than what we think.... who knows though right!?

Family Home Surgeries

During the weekend that my sister Jori got married, my brother Chad flew over from Missouri. While here, him and my brother Matt decided to play surgery on the dining room table! Matt has always had this bump next to his nose. Chad brought his surgical tools and he cut it out! It was so sweet! He numbed Matt up, and then started cutting! The part I didn't get on camera was the part where a HUGE white sac popped all over!

Blessings!

Well, since we moved here things have been sweet and bitter. We absolutely love cedar, especially being so close to family. We have so many friends here that have taken us in. Our ward has been so great! Our neighbors have come over and gotten to know us and so when we see them at church it makes for a more welcoming feeling. We just got a calling in the primary. We both teach the 9, 10, and 11 year olds. Our first lesson was last sunday and it was so fun to get to know all the kids. There is one that is kind of a handful, but that just means for a better time, right? :) Jenny is working at the Abbey Inn hotel, and its been a wonderful job. J.D. just started a job with bottling milk factory yesterday. He will train on graveyards, but his actual shift will be during the hours that Jenny works, so that makes things more perfect! J.D. got his class schedule figured out for that fall, and will stay working full time while attending SUU.

The baby is very active! It's a boy and his name will be Dawson James. He is always rolling and kicking for hours. It's so fun to watch Jenny's stomach. J.D. loves to read stories to him by putting his neck on Jenny's stomach. Dawson will just kick away and get excited everytime J.D. does this. We are so excited for him to come! We had a doctor's appointment last friday and the doctor mentioned how active he was and also said he has a good, strong heartbeat. It's always such a comforting feeling to hear the heartbeat. It's so wonderful to have the technology we have.
