Go JAZZ!

Last Saturday Dave and I were tired of being cooped up in the house so we decided to try something a little spontaneous for once. A few hours before the Jazz game we found some really good seats on KSL for a good price so we decided to go last minute. Our seats were on row 6 which was really awesome. We didn't know how Jaren would do at the game, but he was really good. Between flirting with the girls behind us and watching all the people he was well entertained! It was a fun time and was neat getting to see the players so up close and personal.

I just took my point and shoot so the

pictures aren't the best.

Jaren enjoying the game, he loved to bounce up & down to the music!

The Jazz Bear Shooting shirts into the crowd. Dave was so pumped that he caught a shirt from one of the Jazz dancers even with Jaren in his arms.

Christmas Highlights!

I can't believe that another Christmas has came and went. It seems like the older I get the faster the years go by. We had a really great Christmas this year and with Jaren it was so much fun. We have had lots of family parties with lots of good food and good company. For Christmas my parents, sister Jessie, her husband Shawn, their two boys Braxton & Brogan, and my Grandma Pat, and Uncle Kim came to stay for a few days. It was so nice spending the holidays with all of them. I can't wait until next year when Jaren & Brogan actually know what is going on at Christmas. Here are some of the highlights of our Christmas! Sorry there is lots of pictures!

On Christmas Day we went up to Spanish Oaks Golf course sledding. Jaren looked so cute all bunddled up!

Me pulling Jaren around in his new sled. He was a real ball-of-fire; he actually fell asleep while I was pulling him around!

On Christmas Eve we had my mom's family (The Birkinshaw) party at our house. It was nice getting to see all my aunts & uncles, and cousins. This is a picture of Jaren with his Great Grandma Pat. We were so glad that she was able to come and stay for a few days!

Jaren's New Favs!

Jaren is now 7 months old and we can't believe how fast he is growing up. We feel so lucky to have such a sweet baby! Jaren now has 8 teeth, 4 on top and 4 on bottom. Crazy I know! Braxton likes to call him MR. TEETH MAN! He is sitting up playing with toys and venturing into finger foods. Now that he can sit up; the tub has become a whole new world for him, which he loves! We have finally broke him of being swaddled and he can now fall to sleep on his own when put in his crib! He isn't really attempting crawling yet which is just fine with me because he is constantly going non stop. If that is a sign of what he will be like when he is finally on the move then I hope it takes him a few more months. Here are a few pictures of Jaren's new favorite things.
