Random happenings

So this little contraption (inversion table) has made Tom's back issues (siatica) that he has been suffering from for the last 6 months sooooooo much better!  He is still not 100% at all but at least he can sleep at night and is ,by far, in much less pain...what a blessing!  And what a great addition to our room right!? um no:(  But I can deal:)

 

 And Jadelyn was so helpful while we were assembling it:)


Testing out the new camera with the cutest little model I know!
 Look at those teef!
 This was pretty cute- she was jealous of the pups out in the back yard and was just pounding on the glass door and yelling at them







 The Jone's had a little Jazz game get together which turned into quite the party with lots of our friends!  This first picture was funny because Hayden, Gage, and Swayzie all started crawling around like Jadelyn
Swayzie was running around with her arms up like, "This is the best night ever!!!"









You can see Hayden coaxing Swayzie into holding his hand by bribing her with a doll
 Then they ran around holding hands for a while and it was the cutest thing ever!
 And then she was over it...:) 

So Auntie Stephy is the coolest!!  The kids love her and Swayzie couldn't get enough of the nail painting!!  And she taught her how to blow them dry:)
 Then us ladies did gel nails!! Thanks Stephanie and Brittany!  I love mine



 Before the kids bedtime, there was playing and more playing and Jade just trying to keep up:)



I literally turned my back for 2 seconds the other day to check if there was any dishes in the living room to load and bam!  She had climbed up onto the dishwasher
 Her hair is getting more and more crazy!! This is right after a bath when it should simply comb down, but no, it is everywhere!
 The cushy life of Marley and Jovi

 My favorite thing is right before her nap when she just wants to cuddle it up


Tom's dad had his birthday on Sunday and for his present, he asked for an updated 8x10 family picture from each of his kid's....and we are definitely a little late to get it to him so here is our little home photoshoot we did tonight

Our attempt to include the dogs haha

 This picture of Tom and Jade is awesome!! I mean seriously, how stunning?!  Fierce looking model baby and a model husband!  All those blue eyes!!  Seriously these 2 are my world
 Love this one of Jade and I (mostly of Jade)


 So I don't know when you can should say your kid is walking...I know some count it when they take their first steps...and others when it is their main mode of getting around.
So anyways I think Jade is right in the middle.  She can walk to what she wants, but she only will if she is already in a standing position and has a target in mind.  She doesn't just walk around:)  She does kind of close her eyes and start to run/fall if the target is more than like 10 feet away.  So crawling is still her main mode of transportation but she is almost to what I would consider walking!

Valentine's 2013 + a bazillion pics:)


 Our little Valentine....































We went out to dinner for Valentine's on Friday to, our favorite... Carrabas


 Great Valentine's Day!  I got Tom some Sanuk's (shoes) and a new wallet and he got me a new little camera that I am stoked about, roses, and candy!  Happy love day indeed:)


Two teeth!  Second one came in Feb. 7th


These lovely ladies and I went out to dinner for a mini baby shower to celebrate Jeff and Claudia's little girl that is due in March! 


 Yep...more pictures of Jade!!  Haha we can't get enough!  This little girl is 11 months old today and starting to stand on her own and take steps on her own!!








So this girl has some crazy hair that is so fine and straight and always sticking out everywhere!  Here are 3 examples...  Hey but at least she is getting some hair!
 

She can now repeat "yuck", "go go go" and our favorite-  she can wave and say "HI!"

We are enjoying that we can go on walks again! Anything above 30degrees works for us haha! 

And just doing some one handed head stands and working out with mom.............


 Instagram repeat worthy-
