An update for January and February!

So, an update on us and our lives. So Trevor graduated but decided to take Biochemistry this semester and work weekends. So that's what we're doing. I have a full load because of lots of credits, and Trevor has a full load because of how hard the one class is and how much time he puts into it. haha. So, it's like last semester all over again. But, it's going well and we're staying sane, barely.(Thanks to Heavenly Father who loves us and is always watching out for all of us!) But it's midterms, so it's half way over! Hallelujah! But things have panned out well and I got an internship for next semester. I'll be working at a place in Idaho Falls called Help, Incorporated where they do parenting classes to prevent child abuse, and then they also help children who have already experienced abuse. I'll be doing both ends, the prevention side for the first half of the semester and the advocacy side for the second half. It's a way cool place and I'm excited! Then I'll be taking my LAST 9 credits on top of that and then I'll be DONE!!!!!!!! I'm so stoked! I'm really tired of being busy for every minute of every day. Hence, I'm not using my time very wisely right now...oh well. So there is the update on Trev and I....and here is Paxton....(who turned 4 months old on Valentine's day)


Poor kid, so many of the pictures we take make him look like he has a unibrow..haha


I think he's one adorable boy in just a diaper...luckily, it's his favorite too :)

Waiting in the car for me while I'm in class...

He LOVES standing up. He has since he was like, I don't know how old. But he's always loved it.  Look at those strong (very chunky) legs. :)

Did I mention he has fat rolls everywhere now?

He's discovered his toes MAJORLY this week. It's So cute and he loves them!

Me with my buddy, who got lots of shots in those thighs for his 4 month birthday!
With very pretty bandaids! :)

Christmas 2011

Well, this is super late, and I really don't even have very many pictures...but here we go anyways.
For Christmas we were in Idaho Falls with Trevor's family. On Christmas Eve we had a family party and Kristen and Dustin came from Arizona. It was fun to be with everyone! We spent the night there and Paxton got lots of attention and presents! Here is a picture I stole from Taush's facebook of him...

And then here is me, Kristen, Kylie and Craig, Fuzz (Taushalyn) and Sara with Paxton. Christmas Eve is Craig's birthday, so Kylie made him a SUPER cute cake with the minnions from Dispicable Me on them. SO cute. And delicious!

Then the day after Christmas we celebrated Fuzz's birthday by going out to lunch with everyone and then we headed for Utah. We had a lot of fun with both families, but it was so great seeing my family finally. We hadn't seen them since my baby shower before fall semester started. So everyone got to see Paxton, and we got to see everyone. It was a lot of fun! Then, we blessed Paxton with both of our families there. Um...I didn't take any pictures apparently. So, just imagine us all together. BUT Trev's brother took some pictures of Paxton in his little outfit that my mom made for him from the extra material from my wedding dress. He looked adorable. But yeah, we don't have those yet....
BUT, I helped my nieces make some super cute noodle necklaces. haha. They're so cute. They turned out way cute and the colors they chose looked really cute together. Here are the little princesses:

But we had a repeat of last Christmas at my house. The stomach flu was passed around a little more each day. I got it, but Trev and Paxton didn't, luckily.
Then we tried to relive our childhood by doing rockets! My dad, I mean Santa, used to always get the family rockets that we would then go blast off with our cousins. It was a lot of fun! It was kind of cold, but not as bad as it was when I was little when there was lots of snow everywhere!

The rocket was bent from hitting the ground so hard when it landed so we couldn't relaunch it.

Jeff and Micheal. Micheal was SO enthralled :)

The little kids took turns pushing the button to launch the rockets..

Derek, the best uncle ever, would race them to go get the rockets when they landed.
All of the cousins loved little Paxton, but Willy especially loved holding Paxton and wanted a picture! He held Paxton at least 3 times for about 20 minutes each time. He loved it! He's so cute!
 It was a good Christmas break that helped us gear up for our crazy busy semester!
