Moving again
Clearly we start a moving company! This move makes five major moves in the last year. But we are done for the next year and a half till our contract is up here. Then hopefully we can have some of jason's brothers and sisters out here and they can live with us and we can stay in out big house. But we will see. We finally got out of the pee townhouse. It is so nice not to smell dog pee everywhere you walk. We are almost all moving in just a few more boxes to go through. We love our new house. I will post more pics soon.
I start my new job at melalueca tomorrow! I am real excited! I am doing collections on their spanish accounts. I cant wait. I LOVE CALL CENTERS! I know i am weird. I also got a job as a spanish breastfeeding counselor with WIC. That is only like 10 hrs a week and i get to chose when i want to work or not work. I have my training for it next week. I will have to train for WIC from 8-3 then work at melalueca from 6-10. Jason's mom and sister are coming for the week to help with Addyson. We are so excited to see them! It should be a crazy but fun week.
Thats about it for now. I will post again soon.

May
Mothers Day was great! Jason made me breakfast and bought me beautiful flowers. I am not really a roses kind of girl, but i do love me some lillys and he did so good. Then later that night we went over to Michaels and Stephanies for dinner. It was a great day.
We have started putting Addyson in the tub instead of her little bath. She hated it at first but now she enjoys it. Oh i also found out she was scared of the vaccum this week. I used to vaccum all the time with her around when she was smaller, but she hates it now. She screams her head off and turns around so she cant see it. And it doesnt even have to be on to scare her, if it is just out of the closet she freaks. It is funny but sad. And like i said earlier she is now drinking formula and she can drink down a 4 oz sippy cup in like 60 seconds flat. It is pretty much amazing.
Stephanie works every saturday so Michael comes over in the morning and him and Jason play video games all day. It is so funny to see those two together. It is like they are 12 years old again. I am so glad that Jason has Michael close. While those 2 are watching the kids i get to shopping! It is quite nice i wont lie. I drive to Idaho Falls and go to all the fun stores rexburg does not have. I also get to go see one of my mission companions, Missy Storm, and that is always fun. Addyson is so funny with Carter, she usually tries to climb on top of him or pull out his binky. poor guy.
Check out Carter's face, now look at his left hand hahaha priceless!

We have internet people!!!
Yeah! We finally broke down and got internet. I thought we would be able to get by by picking up other peoples signals but i am tired of sitting on the porch and balcony to check my mail. And Jason really needs it for school. So yes we are here in Rexburg. I actually really like it. The summer that is, i cant promise anything for the winter. Things have been going great, but i will catch you all up on the last month.
So we moved into our Townhouse and clearly there had been a dog that urinated on every square inch of the carpet cause i about passed out when i opened the front door. After alot of smooth talking we were able to get out of our contract. I only let Addyson crawl on a 5x7 rug, i just dont want her on the carpet. The owners have been really great. The even offered to lower our rent substantually but we had already made other living arrangements. Which leads me to the next things going on. We are moving into a house with Jason's cousin and his wife and baby. We are so excited! We get to move in in June but Michael and Steph cant move in untill their contract ends in Aug. The house is huge and so nice. It is 3 stories so we will each have our own floor. we will only have to share a kitchen and laundry room. We have been with them pretty much every day since we got here and we just love them. We feel weird if we go a day with out seeing them.
Addyson continues to grow and her little personality comes out more and more everyday. She is crawling like crazy and pulls up on anything she can get her little hands on. She talks to herself all day , it is so cute. She is still a bean pole like her daddy, but i think she is starting to gain some wieght since we started giving her formula. The dr said her iron was low so he said we needed to start giving her some formula. She hated it at first but now she loves it!
We are in the 3rd week in school and he is doing great. He is so dedicated and spends most his time in the library after his classes. He was also chosen as one of the head coaches for the swim team. He loves his classes and he is very excited to be back in school. We decided that he needed to focus on school and that I would work. I got a job at Melalueca and also as a breast feeding counselor with WIC. The melalueca one is from 6-10 pm and the WIC one is really on my own time and is only about 10 hrs a week. I am very excited. I get to spend all day with Addyson still and i will be working while she sleeps. The most important thing is for Jason to do well in school, and if that means that i have to work i am fine with that.
This next month is going to be crazy. I am going to Seattle to visit my best friend, then jasons mom and sister are coming out for a week, and then we are going to san antonio for my moms wedding. It will be a crazy month!
My really good friend Katie, who also got me into blogging, got me into this thing called blurbing. It is turning my blog into a book. It took me about 5 nights staying up until 4 am but i finally finished it. We are not really good at writing in our journals so we both thought that this would be a great way to document our lives. I will do one every year. The first one was the first year and a half we have been together. I ordered it on fri and should have it by the end of the month. I can't wait!
That is about all i can think of to write . Since i will be using my blog as a journal i will be writing alot more often and about more meaningful things so i do apologize ahead of time if it is a little boring. Here are some pics from the last month.
