It's About Time!...April 2011

I have not really blogged since I started my job! Life was just too crazy! So now that I am done it's about time that I catch up! I started working the end of March so I will jump into April and start there with what has been happening in our lives...

The beginning of April was another beginning...

Skyler & Hilary VanSweden!

It was a great day! Even with the storm blowing in, and the last blizzard of the year, we had a blast! Jackson was really fun all day and was so excited for Hil & Sky. All day he kept saying, "Me & Hil & Sky are getting married today." :)
Their sealing was beautiful, and the weather was nice enough to stay dry until right after we got done taking pictures at the temple.

Here is Jacks in his awesome vest that I made so he could match the boys. :) He was really excited about being able to wear a flower too! My sweet little boy!

Jared and Jackson chillin' at the reception. This is what they did most of the time. Until the music started and then we couldn't get Jackson away from the dance floor! The most precious moment was when Hilary and Skyler had their first dance. Jackson got the saddest face, and sat on the steps with his head in his hands. Hil saw this and came over to his rescue later to sweep him off his feet. :) It was quite precious! I will have to find that picture!

(I know these pictures are backwards, but that's just how they will have to stay. )

The happy couple!

Jackson was being very entertaining while we were waiting for pictures...

Here is Jackson, Oakley, & Zoe being crazy!

Then Ainsley wanted to join in!

Easter Egg Hunt 2011

Jackson was super excited about finding this dollar coin in an egg!

Such a common picture I think of Easter candy... At least it is a common face for Jackson! Trying to get taffy out of his teeth! :)

It's A Girl!!

We finally have another little one on the way!!! We are all so excited, especially Jackson. He is already so sweet and uses a little baby voice whenever we talk about his sister!

It is a girl, and I am so excited!!! It is a bailey 'trend' to have three of one gender, then one of the other gender. We broke that trend...personally I think Heavenly Father knew I couldn't wait that long. :) She is due to come on December 14th. I know...I know...If you are trying to remember why that day sounds familiar that is because it is Jackson's Birthday!! Ahh! I know, I am a little worried too. Two birthdays and Christmas all in the same month!

We just better start saving now! Ha. My awesome doctor has offered to induce me a week early if I would like. Jared thinks it would be awesome if they shared a birthday. But I am leaning towards taking the doctor up on her offer!!

At our 20 week ultrasound, Jackson was watching the tv screen with Jared. If you have experienced before then you will know the part where the technician puts the ultrasound into 3-D. Well Jackson looked at it, and he said in awe, "She's Golden!" (The ultrasound looks a little gold yellowish in color, and he was quite interested in that). So now Jackson has a new nick name for her....first Jackson was going to name her Jackson-after much discussion he realized that would be confusing to have two Jackson's, then he decided to name her Minnie-which we decided that could be her nick name for now, and then Golden-this one didn't stick for long luckily. I convinced Jackson about that one, now I just need to convince Jared.

As for me...there are just too many adorable girl names to choose from. I knew what I would name Jackson if he were a she, but now I am just not too sure.

Well, we are so happy and excited, and now we get to share our excitement with you!

Hopefully I can get our silly camera to cooperate with our silly computer, then I could catch up with the last five months. I have been horrible at blogging lately, but the camera issues and working are keeping me from doing fun things like blogging. Hopefully soon!
