Well. Its official. We are moving! To west Jordan. i admit, its kinda scary knowing ill be that far away from my family and friends. But it will be good for us! More space. Less yard. Two bathrooms, Two bedrooms, Spacious though really, i like it. Down side, there is Latinos next door, i'm not racist but we all know how they like to party and do stuff. loud, tons of kids, etc drives me nuts! But who cares! There is a park across the road from us, and a preschool next door. I'm really confident that this is a good place to be:) Jasper starts preschool soon. This way i can be close. Im going to miss my family. Going from seeing them everyday, and Jasper getting to play with friends and his uncle and aunt everyday and a big yard to hardly any yard sucks. but its big enough to have a small pool and sand box and some toys back there! Exciting!
Other news. A BIG SHOUT OUT TO my cousins, Sam and Natalyia on their wedding. And Alyssa and Pete theGarrett's wedding is coming up and his best man is Benjamin:) Ben is quite excited.
Jasper has loved being out doors. He has been up to Idaho on the farm with grandma and grandpa whitehair he fed pigs. he fed horses had fun with the cousins.:) He has had fun in the pool and playing with his dinosaurs mommy got him. His favorite thing to do has been going to the dinosaur museum! He went to the Ogden one with Mommy and Daddy and Shiloh and he went to the Thanksgiving point one with grandpa white-hair. Grandpa white-hair( my dad) loves spending time with Jasper. which i am grateful for. Jasper loves him.
Shiloh is everywhere and yes, he does crawl now. yes, a six month old crawling... amazing.. but he does it! :) he's kinda a busy body. I mean he is barely teething, and he can crawl! WOWZERS
Love my kiddos.
Ben and I made some really good friends which is awesome. For weeks and months Ben and i have been praying for some good friends. Ben mainly. He got rid of his friends about three years ago due to them being bad influences. He has missed having friends. And has an issue with distancing himself from people because they do back stab. and we finally found these great people. Natalie and Ryan. Both LDS members Ryan loves to game. So does Ben. They understand coding which ben does for a living. They also have a child so they know what its like to be committed to family and have obligations. Natalie and i clicked right off. shes such a sweetheart. we both are obsessed with shopping and pinterest. and we are cleaning freaks. We have alot in common. God does answer prayers. These are good people and our age who have kids so its nice that Ben found a friend.
i will be doing before and after photos of the house so keep reading my blogs to find out what my new house is gonna look like:)

NO PROBLEM mon...
WE are back from Jamaica! So glad to be home. That is deffientaly not a place i would ever care to go to again unless i stayed at Samsara resort the whole time. Dont get me wrong, its gorgeous. But its a third world country.. they are VERY poor, so when they see you in this nice resort, and all this money, it can become a problem... they do their living off taxis, and selling what they make on the street. Which is very beautiful. I made friends with a family of 8 who lived in a three bedroom house. Karen works braiding hair and selling mango's off the street. Her husband drives Taxis. She is the most sweetest lady you will ever meet. Family comes first to her. doesn't matter if its her grand baby and momma, they are always welcome to live at her house even if its sleeping on the kitchen floor. She made them feel welcome. She is very sweet. She always makes the time to make food for them, even her dog, cargo. they don't have much. but they stay together. EVEN THE DOG:) she charged me 30 and i gave her 50. We keep in contact:) We went snorkeling. such beautiful waters... saw sting and mana wrays.. huge ones. dolphins. all kinds of beautiful fish.. an experience i will never forget. The water there is so warm... We made really good friends with Connie and Tom. Such wonderful people. We kinda stayed together. They were at Samsara resort with us, until we had to leave. again we exchanged emails. Connie is such a wonderful person. and Tom included us and just made us feel safe. They are from Atlanta. :) Shopping was quite the experience. i love the way they decorate their houses with bright beautiful colors and birds, dolphins lizards etc.. i love it. such beautiful skin color over there. The houses and stores are painted bright colors. Turquoise, hot pink, lime green, etc.... there are goats everywhere.
Ben jumped off the cliffs and loved it. went out in a glass bottom boat, swam with dolphins and enjoyed multiple pina coladas a day:) loved the ocean. felt so close and safe near it. Missed my boys most of all though!!!! Ricks cafe was great. The music is just to die for!!!! Such talent over there! so was stepping on an urchin and the jelly fish sting.... but over all it was a nice get away. one Ben and i needed.

honey dew and mango's.
Six more days till i am without my kidlets for a week :( its sad that im going on vacation to the tropics and all i can think about it my children and if they will miss me or if they will be ok with the grandparents. ANYWHO. This summer we have done alot of fun things. Feeding ducks. Swimming. Running around. etc. Its been fun. Shiloh is growing up so fast. It seemed like just yesterday he was in my tummy trying to kick himself out. Stubborn little guy... Jasper is having a blast and also having a fun time keeping mom and dad up in the night. He walks himself out of his bed and wants to play. " just cause he can" hes so tired but he has that independence and freedom now that he has a toddler bed. so here comes 1 o clock in the morning and im still sitting outside his door picking him up and putting him back in his bed... talk about draining! Anyways! Ben is working non stop at his job. he goes in at 8 in the morning and comes home at 9 at night...its very stressful because his work is demanding a lot out of him now.. hes a graphic designer and one of the best they got. They work him hard.. Im just being a mom. and wife and trying to find a balance in life.

Summer Fun!
How much does it take to make Jasper smile?... NOT MUCH! such a cute kid. He loves playing outdoors. Give him water and he will give you a water fight. Give him a shovel and he will give you a garden plated with pencils and crayons. Give him a hose and you might wish you hadn't... yes.... he got me.... anyways! We have done a lot of fun crafts. Here are some.

My happiness is found within the walls of my home and family.
Sorry it has been such a long time since i wrote last. I really have a ton to say. First off. We booked a trip to Jamaica!!! My life dream has been to go to the Carrabiean. And i finally decided now was the time. Before we get into our dream house and before the kids can remember we went hahaha. I honestly dont know how im going to live a week with out seeing them! I could barely stand 3 days! :D Passports were the hard part. hahaha i was stupid enough to book the flight and trip before we got the stupid passports... so we rushed ordered them and they will be here by June 14th. We leave on July 1st and stay till the 7th.
Jasper is seriously pushing the limits on everything hahaha. Drew on the tv and laptop with marker. And movies don't keep him still anymore And he always wants to play with the neighbor boys. " Mom, friends?" . I guess he is growing up eh? Geeze one more year and he will be in preschool. We got him a toddler bed and a big boy potty:) Has not gotten out of his bed once and loves it. He actually sleeps better. The potty still needs some work :p but he will get there! Fast learner.
Shiloh is now 3 months and is very hard to keep happy. Very cholicy and fusses often. Always needs to be held. And wakes up when you set him down. We have tried to break him of the habit, but he is just set in stone with it. But when he is happy, the whole world knows it. He has such a beautiful smile. i cannot believe i got so lucky with two wonderful little boys! God sure has blessed me! Even though they are hard and a trial sometimes, the good times are more and i learn every single day and become more happier with my life. Being a mom is what i was supposed to do. And being a wife is what i love doing.
My health is doing alot better. Cancer is out of the ovaries :) And i'm more active.

Spring cleaning and kids..and a kiss on the bum
Ben and I went to see the Avengers tonight and it was pretty much amazing! I got chills basically the whole movie! Thor and Iron man are pretty much HOT... and the hulk is STEAMY!! I will never stop having a crush on Mark Ruffalo.. ( the guy who plays the hulk)
Funny story. Jasper today fell off the couch and landed on his butt, he started screaming and i said
Me: Where do you want me to kiss to make it better?
Jazz: My bumMe: you want me to kiss your bum better?
Jazz: yes mom
The pleasures of being a mom. So to stop his screaming i gave him a peck on the bum hahaha and he stopped crying:) its those cute moments where you feel like the hero :) I love Jasper. Oh so much:) A kiss always makes things better no matter what :)
Shiloh is growing up a storm.. he only sleeps though if im holding him.. if i set him down he screams bloody murder and we have done everything to try and break him of this habit. ugghhh!! Still a cutie though.
Anyways.
:D
