Mister starfish

Mark, Jace, and Alivia

Our little Jacer man is into all the little crawly creepy things he can get his hands on.  At the beach he loves playing with the crabs and starfish.  In fact, he would not let his starfish back into the water and he had to sleep with it and play with it until we told him it stunk really bad.  Then at a friends house Jake found a toad and Jace loved playing with it.  We had the hardest time getting him to let it go, so we used the Nemo story and said it needed to find its daddy like Nemo.  Boys are so much fun and we are glad Jace likes all these little boy things.

MY NEW DIAPER BAG

This is one of my latest purchases for our baby due in october, a custom made diaper bag.  Isn't it so cute?!?  My parents neighbor, Carolyn Passey, made it for me.  If you want a bag/purse for yourself, her # is 563-5262.

Our Handsome Boy!

My friend Courtney took these amazing pictures of Jace.  We love them so much. Thanks so much Courtney, you are so talented.  Check out her website at http://www.courtneymckayphotography.blogspot.com

OUR TRIP THROUGH WYOMING

HOW TO FISH-JACE STYLE

First you catch the worms.

Then you cast your line.

Then you wish your net had fish in it.

Then pose with Daddy and look good!

SURPRISE

The secret is out!  We are 22 weeks pregnant and we just found out that Jace is going to have a little SISTER!!!  Our Canadian baby, Kaydence Jo, is expected to come October 25.  

To kick off the summer Jake's parents drove up to Halifax to see where we live and to view beautiful Nova Scotia.  We packed up and drove all the way back with them and had one fun adventure.  We stopped at Niagara Falls, Kirkland Ohio's church and temple sites, Passed by Elder Jo Brown's city where he serves, and Mt. Rushmore.  It was a fun vacation and we are grateful to Jake's parents for the wonderful trip they gave us.  3,600 MILES LATER WE ARE FINALLY HOME!
