Summer lovin!

Summer has come to the Uintah BASIN!

Yeah! Finally after the longest winter E.V.E.R. it finally feels like summer is here.. Forget about spring! The weather was so nice this last week, we even got out to do a little swimming.

Or should I say... Skinny Dippin; more like Chunky Dunkin!

This is her new smile... always just cheesing it up!

By the end... all the water was in her diaper whiched weight probably 5 pounds!

Moving Cows

Yesterday we went and helped my Grandpa Brent move some of his cows.

We have such a great time helping him and learning from him and Dallie Jo is learning too.....

Grandpa Great and Dallie Jo in Ace

I'll drive Grandpa! 

Rock picker, I mean EATER! 

Cody and Trigger,

Cody has him going so good!

Not really into pictures! ha ha

LOVE YOU... 

Miss Jaxie Dawn even got into the fun!

Seriously, Dallie Jo was all smiles

The. Whole. Time.

She rode most of the time, and the other time she was picking up rocks and playing on the nice and dirty floor boards of the truck. Grandpa Brent is a really good babysitter! She didn't quite make it to the field to put the cows away, she fell asleep in my arms just a little ways from the field.  Good old Gypsy rocked Dallie right to sleep!

And in church today, she showed off her yelling voice in sacrament. She wasn't mad, just teaching the other kids how to yell at the cows. Good thing we can't understand her words yet, they might be a little naughty! haha

And just yesterday Dallie Jo picked up on the rolling part of paddy cake.

So she now looks like she is going to box someone, We're constantly asking her to PUT EM UP! PUT EM UP!

Happy Pics

Just some pictures that make me Happy!

CUTEST Pajamas EVER! 

She's a little Cheeser! 

Seriously, such a ham! Just cheesing it up!

I LOVE MY BABY JO!

PS, she was pulling all my hair out! ha ha

Kanab, UT

Here are some more pics of our little trip to Kanab, UT/Fredonia, AZ to pick Cody's colt.

Its not secret that Dallie Jo loves popsicles! As we were watching Cody ride his horse, we had alittle treat that ended up being a HUGE Mess! But she sure loved it!

Nice and CLEAN! 

And this pictures shows her little attitude! She was too tired to know what we wanted. Pretty funny picture though!

I think its probably time for another little get away...

Any Suggestions?

We were thinking Jackson Hole, WY?! Maybe...

What is this?....

My Baby Girl is 10 Months Old!

New this month:

- She's grown a ton and so has her Attitude! At her nine month Doc appointment she weighed 20 pounds even and was 28 inches long and I think she's grown alot since then.

- She WALKS every where. She takes about 7 steps on her own and then gets a little scared and grabs for some help.

- She's a Tornado! One of the ladies who live by us asked me what Dallie Jo likes to do. I told well she doesn't like toys, she doesn't like to watch TV, and she doesn't crawl much but she does loves to scale the walls... And its true she just likes to walk around looking and pulling everything down. She makes a mess in one place then moves to the next

- She's catching on to words so well... Well we think she is. Tonight Cod gave her a cookie and she ate it then we here, "DA, Cookie!"

- She loves to eat! Especially fresh veggies and fruit. They make a pretty smelly diaper but she could eat, and eat, and eat corn, peas and grapes. When she's outside, she's tried eating grass and hay and flowers but she likes rocks best... you know the ones in the corral where they are really, really dirty!

- She loves riding horses. On Memorial day Monday, she rode her horse Trigger (the real trigger not her rocking horse) and just laughed and smiled the whole ride. SHE LOVED IT!

- She really really really likes her AUNTIE Rylan. She loves all her Aunts but Miss Ry takes her all over and shows her everything! While at my Grandma and Papa Fisher's house she looks and tries to follow Rylan. Good luck Ry, You've got a little follower....

-She loves her Grandparents! This last weekend, she went for a ride with my parents and when I went to strapped her in her car seat she was waving and telling me bye before I could get her strapped in... It kinda broke my little heart! ha ha And she's learning some good and bad habits from Papa Brent. He's the one that started her on finger grabbing.

Love you little BUG!

So last night my little sister graduated from High School. Its kinda weird to think she's all grown up and graduated. We had a great family dinner before and then went to cheer her on as she got her diploma... I to tell her that the only reason she graduated was because the school paid mom and dad to get her out of their hair. Ha ha
As we were sitting there at graduation watching the senior video, all the baby pictures came up and I thought, "Wow, they were once little..." Then the thought popped into my head, "Crap that could be my Jo Jo in a few years.

!SCARY!

And too add to the maddness, last night Dallie Jo decided she didn't want me to rock her to sleep so I put her in her bed and she slept all night!

Needless to say, other than the great, non interrupted sleep I got, she is growing up too FAST! Time flies and she is funner than ever.

THE END

PS she's getting two little teeth on the bottom. I thought she might be a little gummer baby forever!

Sunny Weekend!

On Monday the May 16th was our 2nd year anniversary!

(Our VERY 1st picture taken together!)

Things that have changed from last year:

- Had a baby.
- Cody changed jobs. He now works for Anadarko and seems to really like it.
- I quit my job. (still kinda sad about this... BUT I love staying home with my girl!)
- Bought a new truck; Red (of course) Ford F-150
- Had a baby... I had to add this one again  because this little girl has totally changed our lives. Having a little baby changes so much. A baby can add alot of stress to a marriage, BUT can bring it SO MUCH JOY!

Alot has changed this last year and I wouldn't and couldn't ask for more. Cody is the BEST Daddy and husband and Dallie Jo is such a cute and fun little blessing.

I can't wait to see what our future brings. I'm so grateful I get to spend ETERNITY with these two!

This year for our anniversary we took a little trip to Kanab, UT (YEAH!) to pick up a horse. It was such nice weather....! Not too hot, but for sure not as rainy as it has been the last two weeks in the Basin. We even got a little tan!

Dallie Jo LOVED swimming this time.

We were sitting on the side of the pool and I'd look down and she'd be tipping over and one little toe would pop out of the water. So I'd help her put it back down and she'd stand good for a little while then she'd tip over the opposite way and a little toe would pop up... Too funny!

Miss Hollywood herself!

While Cody was off chasing wild Cows.... (Really they were wild and crazy), Baby Jo and I took a little shopping trip to St. George. We found some great deals and even got a ton of baby clothes for close to 75% off all! YEAH!

I didn't think she'd like her glasses much but she does. She'll leave them on the whole time. 

Cody had a pretty good time chasing those cows too. He said my Grandpa's meanest cow doesn't hold a candle to those Mean Mammas! The guy he went with said, "These cows have no bluff to them... If they look like they're going to eat you, they will."

I think we'll probably have to take another trip down so I can go. I wasn't about to lug Jo Jo on long horse back trip to chase cows that are that mean... It didn't sound too fun with a babe.

We had a great time while down south. I thought the drive would be terrible but Dallie Jo was so, So, SO GREAT! She did get tired the last 15 mins of our trip but she was a complete Angel the rest of the time. It was good to get away and just spend some time just as a family.

 

And this pic was from Mother's Day.

We were invited over to my cousin's mission farewell and this is Dallie Jo helping dad drive to the luncheon. Quincee said she's a better driver than her daddy!

PS our computers.... thats right computers just quit one day so now I have to mooch off of my family in order to blog or check email... Dumb computers!
