Big Truck Little Truck




We have added to our white collection (not by choice). Jason just recently switched areas in the company and now runs the maintenance department. It was very nice because the company bought him a brand new truck so that he could haul stuff out of homes and do any simple clean up as he inspects the home. So now we have 3 cars in our driveway that are all white. Also, yesterday our wonderful neighbors gave us a power wheels truck for Kolsen that their son had grown out of. It is so cute and he absolutely loves it. We took it for a ride in the park today and as much as Kolsen loved it I think DADDY had more fun than him. I love my boys and could watch them play together all day long! Here are some pictures of the new rides.

Random things

Well, life at the Davis home has slowed way down and not much is going on. We were able to go to Aaron's homecoming talk yesterday and he did a wonderful job! He gave such a sweet talk and shared some cute stories about his mission to Costa Rico. Welcome home Aaron! Other than that Jason has been working and Kolsen and I have just been hanging around. Here are some random cute pictures of him and his Cheesy grin. Also here is a picture of me at 30 weeks. If she keeps growing fast, I will hopefully go a few weeks early and will have about 8 weeks left. Yeahhhh. Being pregnant is a lot of fun, but I am getting ready to be done and have our little girl in our family.

Ultra sound photos





Like I said, we didn't get any good pictures of her and they look even worse on the blog but here they are. You can still see her cute nose and mouth and she had her hand under her chin like she was posing. It is so neat that technology will allow us to do this. The other crazy thing is (in the bottom picutre) the doctor said that the thing up by her left eye is her foot. It is so wierd to think that babies are so flexable, but I guess they would have to be to fit in your tummy.

SHE'S GONNA BE BIG!!!

Well, we went to the doctor today for our 3D ultra sound and found out that Kallie is MORE than healthy. By that I mean she is HUGE and already weighs 3lb. 14oz. That is the 95% for how far along I am and about 2 weeks ahead of schedule. So that means that depending on how fast she continues to grow Dr. Erickson said that he wants to take the baby at least 2 weeks early if I have not had her by then. He doesn't want her to get to big because I am so small and I don't think my body could handle that. OK I am sure it could but I would rather not give birth to a 6 month old. Anyways she is doing really good and has a good heart rate. She didn't want to cooperate for the pictures though so we didn't get very many good ones. She was facing my back at first and then she snuggled up to the placenta and we couldn't get a full front view of her face, but you can still tell that she will be beautiful. Our scanner is down so as soon as we fix it I will post them. It is always reassuring to see her and to hear her heart beat to know that she is ok in there. It got me really excited to meet her and to see how Kolsen will do being a big brother.

Cute Story and a Family Update

I love the innocence of kids and the cute things they do. To preface the story Jason loves to put things under Kolsen's shirt so he can't get them out and Kolsen loves it. Well, we were making dinner last night and he was helping us in the kitchen when he came over to my tummy and said "BALL." I didn't understand him at first and then he said it again and tried to lift up my shirt to see what was under there. It was so funny and it had Jason and I rolling. I bet that is hard for kids to understand. Anyways, we are doing good over here. The baby is getting a lot stronger and keeping me up at night, which is fine cause I don't sleep anyways. She is getting to the point that you can watch my tummy go crazy at night. She gets really active about 9:00 at night and goes strong for about an hour. It is a very strange but fun feeling. It also reassures me that she is still growing good. We have our 3D ultra sound next Monday so we will hopefully get some good pictures of her.
Jason is doing alright too. He is very busy with his school classes and working full time, but he is so good about making time for Kolsen and I still. He also received a new calling that will help out a lot. He and Brian are in scouts and have activity's every Tuesday night. He said it is a lot of fun and now he can rest on Sundays and not have to teach a lesson. Our ward also split yesterday. We were in desperate need of it. Bishop said that we had 300 members a year ago when the stake split and we grew to 774 members. It is good to see so much growth, but it is so hard to get to know anyone when there are that many new people every week. So we will see how much the split helped next week. Our time changed to 8:00 too which is so much better than 1:30.
Kolsen is doing awesome too except for sleeping. I thought we were so lucky when he loved his bed so much in the beggining and slept good through the night but boy was I wrong!!! He for the last two weeks has been waking up several times a night and coming into our room crying. Some times you can tell that it was a bad dream but usually he just heard a noise. He is a very light sleeper (like Jason) and if he hears anything he gets scared and comes running in. It has gotten to the point that if he comes in more than once or twice we have to put the monitor in there and lock the door so he can't get out. I am sure it is just a phase, but it is so hard to know he is scared of his big room and there is not much I can do about it. If anyone has any good ideas we would love to hear them. Well, I will stop rambling on about us. It is only Monday and I am already wishing it was the weekend. Hope everyone has a good week!

Projects With Lots Of Help

This is what all of Jason's projects look like. If he walks out the front door other than to go to work or school, Kolsen is at his side "helping" with whatever he can. Today's task was to fill in the big sink hole we got in our front yard from all of the rain. Do you like his make sift wheel barrel? It looks like I know what to get him for his birthday! It is so cute to watch Kolsen admire his daddy and want to be like him already. I can't wait for the time when he grows up and can really help, instead of dumping dirt all over himself. I am so grateful to have the husband I do who is a hard worker and to have such a wonderful little boy. They give me joy beyond measure!!! They are both way cute too!!!

An everyday weekend

Not to much has gone on this week, so I thought I would share a few pictures that we took. The quality of the pictures are horrible but you can still get the idea. The first few are of Daddy giving Kolsen a bath and playing with his hair. He was also making him laugh hysterically by blowing bubbles on him. It was so cute!







Here are some of me at 27 weeks. I have all of a sudden popped out and feel really big. I know I have a long way to go, but it is all worth it in the end. Hope everyone is doing good!

OUR BELOVED PRESIDENT




A wonderful version of "How Great Thou Art" that I stole from Kim.
(copy this and put it in the address section)

As most of you have heard, our Beloved president has passed away. President Hinckley was a wonderful man and as amazing prophet of our church. He was dearly loved by all and will be greatly missed! The best tribute of all for him would be to follow in his legacy of learning all he could and being an amazing example of how every person should live their lives. I am so grateful that he is with our Father in Heaven and with his sweet wife and I know the Heavens are rejoicing for receiving such a wonderful person. What made it even harder for me, was that last night we had our monthly FHE at our house for the Davis family and I gave a lesson on Obeying our Prophet and on the Proclamation To The World. I shared my testimony on how much I loved our Prophet today and knew that he was called of God. Just shortly after we were done, we received the phone call from my mom. It was a sad ending but I know he is so much happier where he is now. I love you President Hinckley and thank you for all you have done!

This is my favorite because of what it represents. I wish Jason and I had taken a picture of this moment because it was one of the most exciting, scary, nervous, anxious, wonderful moments of my life and I will never forget the moment that I saw Jason again after two years. I love him so much and am so glad that we get to spend eternity together.









This is one of my favorite pictures of the temple and it is one of my favorite places on earth to be!

Congrats Mr. and Mrs. DAVIS







Saturday was the big day for Kimberly and Cameron. They were sealed together in the Mesa AZ Temple at 10:00am. It was a beautiful ceremony and they had lots of family and friends there. They are such a beautiful couple and I know they will have so much fun learning and growing together. I love you guys!









Then we had a luncheon and the reception later that night. It was very beautiful and everything went pretty smooth. There was lots of pictures followed by food and dancing. We got everyone out on the dance floor and the little one's were so cute. I didn't have my camera so I couldn't get pictures of it but Kolsen, Kernan, Bode and all the other little cousins and friends were on fire. They loved to dance and were bouncing to the music. It was adorable!!!
We had to wake Kolsen up early to go to the temple so he was a little grouchy and you can see how his daddy handle's that. No sympathy!!!
Just Married
The girls





Cheese!

My Baby isn't a Baby anymore!!!



We have hit a big milestone this past week. Since Jason has been on break for school and have had some days off together we decided that now would be a good time to move the kids bedrooms around and get Kolsen's Big Boy room set up. We started a few days after Christmas and put the mattress to his bed on the floor (so he wouldn't fall off the bed) and all of his toys in there. He was so excited about moving everything and laying on the bed that we figured we would try it and see how he does. It has been over a week now and he has done amazing!!! The first and second nights when we came out in the morning we found him asleep on the couch, but since then he takes naps and sleeps there all night long. He loves it and whenever I say "It's Nap Time" he goes running to his room and jumps in his bed. He is such a good little boy. We are so spoiled. Also ignore the comforter. Kolsen got really sick this weekend and threw up all over his other one.

So since he is all settled in his room now, I wanted to get Kallie's (I thought I would try this name out) room situated. I got all of her bedding washed and put in the crib and now all we have to do is paint both rooms and get the Playroom/Foster room set up. It feels so good when you accomplish all the things you wanted to do. We have tons more projects around the house, but I don't think those ever stop.


We also finished my Christmas present. The kids bathroom is finally done and painted. It looks so cute and I love the set that Jason bought. Here are a few pictures:

Kolsen loves the bathroom too because every time he goes in he has to walk right up to the curtain and growl like a Lion or make monkey sounds. It is so cute!!!

Christmas pictures

Here are some fun Christmas pictures we took to give as gifts. They turned out pretty good but Kolsen is making a goofy face in our family one. We put the camera on a stand and it took 6 quick ones in a row and that was the best one.
