My mom tells me I'm special...

Okay so ignore my last 2 posts. Mobile blogging sucks!!! I was just venting about bottle lids anyway lol!

I am so excited though. I have found two friends through the miracle of technology. I found my old roomie Natalie. We used to have tonz of fun in the blue du! I was reminising the other day and I remembered our other roommate Courtney doing the thriller dance. It was hillarious. Anyway. I also found my bestest friend in the whole world's blog Shallon. We are terrible at keeping in touch though. I saw her the day I had Kaia. She stopped in to say Hi before I left for my doctor appointment.

So our pumpkin carving didn't go so well. The pumpkins we got were kind of bad and they just fell apart. I have to go get new ones tonight so the kids can carve them. They were kind of sad that they didn't get to.

I am finally getting a Jorgensen niece. I have the only girls and can't wait to have a niece to dote on. Yay! Congrats Jason and Leslie. I went through the clothes Kaia has grown out of last night and was amazed at how much she has grown. She was such a tiny little thing and now she is a
monster!
That is all for now I think. I will post more after Halloween!

The Pumpkin Patch






On Saturday we took the kids over to Elsinore to the pumpkin patch. They had so much fun picking their own pumpkins, riding the train, and the hay wagon. Mike told the story of when he got ran over by a hay wagon and I of course laughed as I do everytime the story is mentioned. I know I'm not very nice but it's funny now. Mostly because I heard the story the first time from a traumatized Colby. He came running in the house near tears, "Mikey got ran over by the hay wagon!!" As I type this tears are rolling down my face.



Anyway back to the ranch... After the pumpkin patch we went home and had ice cream cones and played tag with the kids on the front lawn. Jercie had spent the night at Grammy's and was super ornery that night.



On Sunday we went to church. It was the Primary Program. Jercie had her part all memorized and then refused to get up and say it. I was kind of sad cuz we worked so hard on it. Oh well. Kaia had all the Relief Society ladies in love with her. Who wouldn't be?! Blaze actually likes to go to nursery now. He goes right in and starts playing. He doesn't really play with the other kids. He's likes to play alone. My home teachers stopped by last night and talked to my kids. Bob taught them about rules and used magnets to teach the lesson. It was nice. He also brought over some tomatoes and a butternut squash. YUM!!! Any tips on how to cook the squash are welcome!!



Upcoming events include: pumpkin carving tonight. The halloween parade at the school on Friday morning. Trick or Treating Friday night. Family pictures on Saturday. If the clothes Andrea bought for Kaia are here by then she will wear one of the outfits for pictures. I am so excited to get the pictures done. We are going up to Monrovian. Hopefully the trees won't be too bare.



That is all I can think of for now. I will post pics of everything as soon as I can.

Kaia Hanlee Jorgensen

We went to Kaia's 4 month well check yesterday. She is 13 lbs 6 oz. 23 3/4 inches long. She is very healthy. Her head is a little small but it's growing so the doctor isn't too worried about it. She was so good on the way down and back. The doctor gave us the go ahead to start her on rice cereal. She wan't too thrilled about it.
The doctor was talking to her and trying to get her to smile, Kaia wanted nothing to do with her and just looked at her with a bored expression. So the dr. started talking to me and lo and behold Kaia decides to talk and smile at her. She does that to me too. I will be talking to her and getting big smiles and as soon as I bust out the camera she stops. That's why we don't have many smiling pictures of her. She wakes up laughing in the morning just like her sister used to do. Maybe it's the butterflies.
That's a pretty random post but you all get the picture.

Here's what's new!





Okay so alot has happened since I last updated this thing. My mom got DSL hooked up today and so far I love it. Once our computer is fixed I will be doing the same thing. I celebrated my 28th birthday with the flu. It wasn't the best birthday ever but what do you do. Mike got me a WII so I had something to do while I was miserable. It's so much fun. The kids love it too. Luckily Mike and I are the only ones that ended up sick which is a miracle. Jercie taught herself to ride a bike without training wheels. She came in the saturday after my birthday and told Mike she wanted the training wheels off. He took them off and by the end of the night she was riding like a pro. Blaze got on his Big Wheel the other day and told Mike it was a "hot sum bitch" I laughed so hard. I swear I don't know where he comes up with the things he says. We had dinner at my parent's house the other night here is the conversation between grammy and Blaze
Grammy: " Do you love your baby sister?"
Blaze: "Yeah."
G: "Can I keep her?"
B: "No, then I wouldn't have a baby sister."
G: " What if I gave you a baby brother then could I have her?"
B: No I want you to have a baby brother."
G: " I had a baby brother once but I gave him away to Marshi"
B: " What Martian was it?"
Marsha is my brother's wife for those of you wondering what a Marshi is. Too Funny.
I got my hair cut a few weeks ago. I'm still not sure if I like it. What do you all think? It's not the best picture but what do you expect from a self portrait? You do however get the added benefit of Kaia. Speaking of Kaia, we have her 4 month appointment on Friday. I will post the stats from that shortly after. She is getting nice and chubby. I guess she has always been a bit on the chunky side so I guess she is just maintaining. She has rolled over a couple times. The first time happened while my back was turned but I have witnessed it since. I almost cried because I just am not ready for her to grow up. Here are a few more pictures for you all to enjoy.

Apparently picture posts take forever to show up. My mom is getting high speed hooked up today so I might actually keep you all informed.
