Im going to try and pretend that it hasn't been an incredibly long time since I last posted. We have had kinda a lot going on and I didn't have a camera for quite a long time. Its just not as fun unless I can post some pictures! I was finally able to get a new camera a couple weeks ago and it has been Great! I dont like having to beg people for copies of pictures, so its been good!
Well, lets see....Jon finally graduated back in May and we were so excited to be done with school! He was really hoping to get into the FBI right away, but that was kinda put on hold for a little while. He needs some more experience in his field and what not. So we went on the search for a job and have been doing that up until about last week! Jon was able to get a job at Mercedez Benz in Lindon! He has never sold a car or done sales like this before, but he is confident and excited to see how he does and to learn some new things. I think he will be able to do it just fine...Jon can sell anything, Im sure! He officially starts that job next Monday, but has been going in for all sorts of training and stuff. So after this thursday, we will officially be done with night jobs! YAY! Jon has been working nights for 1 1/2 years now and I have been doing it for about 7 months and we are definetaly done with that schedule. It will be so nice for him to just have a regular day job and be local!
This little baby inside of me is doing a good job of growing! I feel pretty big at this point..I think Im bigger than I was with Makella, but Im not sure. He seems to be a pretty laid back baby and I really dont feel him too often, but its enough to know that he is in there and doing well! I am 29 weeks now. Its so weird that I only have 11 more weeks until he is here! It seems to be going by soo fast and there is so much I have not gotten done! We are hoping to be able to move into a little bit bigger/nicer place before he is here, but that depends on Jon's job. I feel like he will be here before I have a chance to get everything I need and before I can prepare myself mentally to have 2 kids! I seem to have forgotten what it will be like to have a newborn. It will work out somehow though and we are really excited to meet him! We are still working on names though, so if you have any suggestions, we would love to hear them!
Makella just continues to grow and make us laugh with all the things she says and does. Besides her 2 year old tantrum/not listening/destructive moments, she is so much fun to have around and we love her to pieces! We have spent a lot of time outside this summer swimming, and playing. We tried to potty train her about a month ago and I think she is about 80% ready, but she is just not completely there yet, so I decided to give her a couple more months. Im determined to have that taken care of before the new baby comes. I think it would be great to not have 2 kids in diapers, but we will see. She definetaly moves at her own pace and will not be pushed!
That is kind of an update on everyone here. We have been able to do some fun things this summer, which is great! We have a family reunion in May with my family in Washington and it was soo much fun to see everyone. I was able, just this last weekend, to go up to rexburg with Karianne for Tayven's blessing. It was lots of fun to see Amiee and be able to spend some time with her and Hyrum and Kyla. Makella and Kyla get along so fun and its fun to watch them play together!
Here are some pictures from Rexburg and just some other ones from this summer. I am determined to make more of an effort to write on this blog, even if its just for myself!
These pictures are a little bit out of order, but thats ok!
