Olivia and William

Here is a recent picture of Olivia and William. William just had his 2 month appointment. He weighed in at 11 lb. 12 oz. According to the growth chart he is tall and thin. He is growing so fast. Olivia just loves him. She loves to make him smile. The other day she said, "you gotta see this mom-he's smiling at me!"




Swimming Lessons

Olivia started swimming lessons last Monday. At first she was a little freaked out about staying in the water, because they can't touch the bottom they just have to hold on to the sides. She kept getting out, but by Thursday she thought it was a party. It is especially fun because her cousin Brynn is in her class. They have a fun time together, while Heidi and I try to stay cool in the triple digit weather. Heidi stays for a couple more hours while her other kids are busy in classes. I go home as quickly as possible to get to the air conditioning.

Scorpions.....

Ok, so I have to say that I am a little freaked out about the scorpions. When Jason got to Arizona he killed three scorpions outside of the house. He had the house sprayed before I got here and we thought the problem was taken care of-at least for a month. (you can get sprayed once a month) But on Saturday Jason was standing outside the screen door and Olivia and I were inside getting our shoes on to go outside. We were all just standing around-when Jason started freaking out- I quickly closed the door and Jason killed his fourth scorpion! Then late that night Jason went into the bathroom when he saw and killed another scorpion. Needless to say I am a little creeped out. Scorpions are not nice little creatures. Anyway, the exterminator is supposed to come back today and spray again. Hopefully he comes soon.

William's Blessing


We blessed William in my sister Lori's ward in Utah so we could have some of our family there. Jason's Grandpa Meador blessed the baby which Jason has always wanted him to do. Grandpa Meador joined the church after his two children were born, so this was the first time he had blessed a baby. He is a wonderful man and we are thankful that he was able to do it.

We have arrived.... in ARIZONA

We are here! After a very long drive with the two kids we made it to AZ. We are currently renting a house from Jason's brother Ross-it has a great pool in the backyard! So we are dealing with the heat quite nicely.
