Idaho

Wow, it has been a long time since I have bloged. Life has just been crazy, and still is. Last night we got home pretty late from Cali, and both Jason and Will picked up a bug while we were there. Will is staying home from work today, so it is a lay on the couch movie day.

(Check out what is in between his toes.) Idaho turned out pretty well. Jason was a pretty good kid. I was able to help do dishes and prepare meals for HD and Britany. I keep myself entertained by making a ton of cookies* for HD and Britany. I stuck them in the freezer, so when they wanted some cookies, they could let it thaw and eat them. (*HD and Britany are on wick and receive a food allotment. The get a ton of peanut butter and HD asked me to do something with it, hence I made 3 batches of peanut butter cookies.) After making so many cookies, I am truly thankful for my cookie scoop. Rolling that may cookies by hand got tiring.

Jason watched a lot of movies while we were there. HD and Britany also live 1 block away from a park. Every day we would go take a walk to the park while Britany was taking a nap. Jason loved it. I wish that we lived that close to a park.

Baylee is a cute little girl. She had a little bit of Jaundice, so she looks a little yellow in the pictures, but it cleared up by the time that I left. None of the pictures that I took do her justice, but I will put them up any ways.

Jason handled Baylee pretty well. He didn't freak out when I held her. He was OK with her. I think he is going to do just fine when we bring Sierra home. He thought she was a pet more then anything. He would touch her toes, and watch her. He was very gentle with her. Visiting them eased my mind a lot about how he would handle things.

He even shared his toys with her. (I can't believe that Jason use to be smaller then Baylee.)
One time he was looking at me, he all of a sudden turned towards Baylee and said BOO. I laughed so hard. He was trying to play with her. Don't worry he was a good 6 feet away from her, but what a funny kid.
Lastly HD and Britany have a turtle. Jason was afraid of it and would run away from the turtle. In this picture I asked him where the turtle was and he is pointing it out to me. I was surprised that at one point he actually said turtle with out me coaxing him. It is amazing how fast they learn things at this age.
I will have to tell about the wedding tomorrow. Right now I need to take care of my 2 sick boys and make them lunch.

I'm sure you were such a big help to them! You're probably going to really enjoy not being out of town for a while.

Thanks again for helping out when I couldn't!!!

Jason will be a GREAT big brother. At least you know he'll always throw away dirty diapers. Maybe you could teach him how to change them too!!! hahahaha

Looks like your trip was a lot of fun. I couldn't figure out what was between Jason's toes but maybe that's a good thing.
