Busy weekend, finished product and Easter!!!

We had a really busy weekend. We are getting a new fence, because ours is falling over. But before we can get a new fence we have to put in a new retaining wall. The wall we had in was a bunch of rail road ties and they were rotting out. So Bryan and our neighbor Lee spent all day Friday and Saturday removing these rail road ties. This was not an easy job. The people who lived here before put in the ties and thought that every tie needed like 4-5 re bar going through them. This made it very difficult to take the ties out. Let me just say that is was a bigger project than we thought and poor Bryan and Lee were very very sore the next couple of days. Here are a few pictures of our project.

We also finished the Babies nursery. It turned out so cute and I love it. It makes me more and more excited for the baby to come. Bryan and my mom did an excellent job. My mom did a lot of work to add green into the quilt, bumper pads, wall hangings,and baskets. I just love it. Here are a few pictures of Maelie's room.
We also had an awesome Easter. Parker had the time of his life. He got spoiled big time. On Friday his Grandma and Grandpa Jorgensen took him to a neighborhood Easter Party. He loved it. He colored eggs and had an egg hunt. After that he just kept asking to find Easter eggs. Then on Saturday we had an Easter Dinner at the Jorgensen's. Parker got spoiled by Grandma and Grandpa and had a huge Easter egg hunt with lots of prizes. He was in heaven and had to sleep with most of his loot that night. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Jorgensen for the fun Day. Here are some pictures of him looking for his Easter prizes.


Then on Sunday we woke up and the Easter Bunny had come and brought Parker some cool Dinosaur things he was so excited he also got the Bee movie and 101 Dalmatians. He loved it and once again he had to sleep with all of his dinosaurs and he also had to take a shower with them.Here are a few pictures of him on Sunday morning.















We then went to church, and it was an awesome meeting. I am so thankful for our Savior Jesus Christ and all that he did and does for each and everyone of us. I am so thankful for the Easter Season and for the opportunity to reflect on the atonement and Resurrection. After Church we headed over to my parents house for a wonderful Easter Dinner. It was awesome. They then did an Easter egg hunt for all the kids. They loved it and once again Parker was in heaven and made a haul. But sadly I forgot my camera so I don't have any pictures of him at my moms house. But here is Parker right before church in his cute little Easter outfit. Don't worry that he chose the spot to have his picture taken. It was cute. Well we hope you had a wonderful Easter.

Spring time, nightly ritual and 7 1/2 months pregnant

I am so glad that spring is kind of here. It has been so nice sending the kids in the back yard to play. They love being outside and I love it too. They always find their way to the dirt piles, but they have fun. I can't wait until everyday is an outside day. Here are a few pictures of the kids and of course the dog enjoying the sun. Look how dirty this kid is. Like I said he loves to play in the dirt. Well since Bryan has started working a part time job, he doesn't get home until 9. I let Parker stay up and wait for his Daddy. Bryan loves putting him to bed and reading to him. Here is what I get to see every night and it makes my heart melt. Parker loves his Daddy.And last but not least here is a picture of me 7 1/2 month pregnant. I can't believe that I only have a month and a half left. I think I am getting to the point where I am done being pregnant. I am a little nervous for the baby to come, but I think we are getting ready. I am going to try and set a for sure date with the Dr tomorrow. So I will let you all know. It will be nice to just be able to plan the day and just go in and have her. Also Parker had a fun filled weekend with His Grandma and Grandpa Jorgensen. I will post a blog just about that when I get some pictures. So thanks Grandma Jeri and Grandpa Kevin!!!

Don't worry I am still alive

Don't worry I am still here. I have just been a slacker. I haven't taken one picture since those last pictures I posted. I promise this week I will get on the ball. I have just been exhausted and lazy. I forgot what it is like to be 7 months pregnant,then add chasing 3 kids around on that and I just run out of energy. But things are going well and we are all still healthy and happy. I have a Dr's appt this week, so I will keep you all updated on that. I will take some pictures and post them of my little p-man. Just wanted to let you know I am still here.

Tantrums, toilets and laughs

Well this past week has been fun. Parker recently started throwing some major tantrums. You know the kind where they kick and throw their heads back, arch their back and scream bloody murder? Well that is what we have been dealing with this past week. The other day he was throwing one so I put him in the naughty chair. When I came back to get him out there he was sitting on the chair with his paper chefs hat with big tears in his eyes. It was so cute I had to take a picture.




We also got Parker a new potty to put on the big potty. They other day my mom was waxing my eye brows and we look over and this is what we saw.



I was laughing so hard. Then the rest of the night he had to wear it on his head. He is so funny sometimes. He kept saying my potty hat. Also that night my mom and I were in the babies room touching up some paint and in walks my little stinker with stickers all over. It was so cute. He cracks me up and I love the picture with him and Zoiee. Here is some more pictures of my cute little boy wearing mama's hat. Every time I have it on he thinks he needs it.
And As for me and being pregnant. I am doing pretty good. Not to much longer, but it seems like forever and a day away. But that is okay, because I am not sure I am ready yet. I am a little scared to have 2 kids, well actually 4 because of the boys I babysit. But everyday I get bigger and bigger and more uncomfortable. But that is the joys of being pregnant. Today I have a Dr's apt so we will see how everything is going!!! Keep you posted on that!!! Next entry I will try and put a picture of me and my big belly.

Valentines day and more!!!

We had a good valentines day. We didn't really do anything real fancy. Bryan had to work his new part-time job so Parker and I went to Dinner with my mom and Dad. It was fun and really good. I did try and do some fun things for the kids. I got them each a present, we made cookies and had heart shaped peanut butter and Jelly sandwiches. That night Bryans parents came and brought over valentine goodies and presents. Parker got the cutest movies Cars mat and some movie cars to play on the mat with. He was in Heaven and still is. Aunt Elisha got him a movie cars shirt and he loves it and Aunt Karen got him the cutest movie Cars jacket and the lightning McQueen lights up. Can you tell my son love the movie Cars? It was a fun Valentines day. Bryan got me really pretty flowers and the movie The Game Plan. I love this movie!!!!! I got him a lowes gift card. How romantic am I? Here are a few pictures from Valentines.

My Poor nephew and our singing dog

This past week my newphew Britton broke his leg trying to ski down a little hill by their house. It was a pretty bad break. He has to wear a cast 6-8 week and he can't put any pressure on it at all. It has been really hard for him. He is learning to use crutches and that has been hard, Even getting dressed is hard. I went and saw him on Saturday and I felt so bad for him. Here is a picture of my cute Britton.


Also my dog Zoiee loves to sing to the piano. It is so funny!!! Everytime Bryan plays she will sit down and sing. Here is a video of our Singing dog!!!

This week in the life of the Jorgensen's

This week has been busy. Last Friday Parker came down with a fever and a cold. He had a fever until Sunday night and then his cold started. Then Bryan and I came down with a cold, it hasn't been very fun, but we are doing much better. Here is a picture of Parker when he was sick and wanted to eat in my bed.



Also on Saturday my mom and Bryan finished parkers bed. They added drawers to go under the bed. Parker loves it and he instantly went and put toys in the drawers. They did such a great job. They work so hard on making nice things for my house. Here is a picture of the finished product.

Monday night for family night we played Karaoke!!! It was a lot of fun. Parker just had to get in the mix of things. He loves to sing and dance. Here is a video of him singing and dancing with his daddy.

I also took the boys to the aquarium this past week. We have been there a ton of times and they still love it and act like they have never been. It is fun to take them, plus it is free for us because we have passes. We have definitely got our money's worth out if them. Also the boys new thing is taking all the pillows off the couch and jumping into them. After they get tired of that they sit in them and watch a show. I love it when they finally sit down and be quiet for a few moments.
















Also the other day I went to get into bed, and I found Zoiee sleeping on my side of the bed on my pillow. She did not want to move. She thinks she owns this house. It was so cute I had to take a picture.





And last but not least I had my Doctors appt this week and had to do the glucose test. The Drink actually wasn't that bad. I just hope the test all come back noraml. The Doctor said I am mesuring 25 cm and says I am right on schedule. We also heard the heart beat and she is doing great. I think I must be eating to much because when I stepped on the scale the nurse was like wow, you jumped up a lot from last time. I felt like a fat cow. But the Doctor said not to worry and that I am doing good on the weight gain. So it looks like things are going good. I have a little over 3 months left to go. Since I don't really remeber the birth of Parker (because I was put to sleep) I am really nervous for this birth. We are going to have a c-section and as of right now it is scheduled for May 8th. I don't really know what to expect, I just hope it is a better experience than last time.

Well that is about all this week from the Jorgensen's. I have been trying to be better about taking pictures and blogging, but I see that I can do a lot better. Until next time!!!

My Cute little Parker

Parker is so in to pretending and playing with his toys lately. I think that he has a little OCD when it comes to his toys. He has to line them all up. He lines up all the animals together and then he will line up all the cars. He also got a train for Christmas and he has to line the trains up perfectly on the track. He will spend hours putting the toys in a line, knock them down and do it all over again. He is also really into coloring. The last few days he will sit and color, he gets so into it. It is so fun to watch him. On Saturday he went to dinner with Grandma Jeri and Grandpa Kevin. He got one of those paper chefs hats that he could color. Don't worry that he had to sleep with it. The next morning he ran into my room and said "Mama look at my hat". He loved it. He also had to take it to church. It was so cute. Here are a few pictures of my little cutie.

Parkers Big Boy Bed

Parker is now in his big boy bed. A while back my mom bought a head board and foot board for like 25 dollars, the only thing is it didn't have bed rails. So Saturday my mom and Bryan made bed rails for the bed. It turned out so nice and Parker loves it. He has no problem sleeping in it at all. In fact when people come over he wants to show them his bed. He is so excited to be a big boy!!!! It was kind of sad for me because it means that my little boy is growing up!!! Bryan also painted an old dresser red and it turned out so cute and looks brand new. I love it!!! Also this weekend we got the baby's bedding. It is so cute. You will have to wait and see what that looks like when we get the room done (That won't be for a while). Here are pictures of his room and of Parker in his big boy bed.
