9 month pics already!!

Today I took our princess to get her 9 month pictures taken. I am so proud that she actually smiled in these ones! I even went to ghetto Valley Fair and they were the best that we've been to yet! She was hilarious and cheesin' it like you wouldn't believe! Enjoy!

I felt so bad, the first time that we put her on the bench, I let go and she took a nose dive off. But she recovered quickly!

I swear when she knows it's picture day, she plays Freddy Kruger and gives herself a gash or two! Luckily this one's on the side of her head, but you can see it in this one. Let's just say, I promptly trimmed the nails after she woke up with that sucker!

Oh my heck! I can't believe how cute she is!

I'm all signed up!

It's official, I'm all signed up to run the half marathon representin' East High School in April! There's no backing out now! I've felt really awsome since I began changing my habits and moving more! Hopefully I make it through the 13.1 miles. If not, I know that Brynn will carry me! :)

I will have to post some pics later when I get some loaded onto the computer. We got the internet today, I know, I know, welcome back Kristy! I feel like I'm reconnecting with an old friend. . .give me a minute. . . okay, we're good.

We're getting ready to head up to Pocatello for the week on Monday. I am excited, but also a little anxious as to how Miss Hailey will fare while we're away from home. It's always a challenge to not be at home and have her in her own bed. Plus, she's been cutting her first two teeth and on top of that she sounds like "snuffluffagus" this week, because she's had a cold :( boo. Hopefully she'll be over it so that she can enjoy the major spoiling that's going to take place from Grandma!

Hope that you all have a MErry Christmas! I'll post some Christmas pics from Idaho and I'll also post some lovely pics of me next week when I get my wisdom teeth out!

The Long awaited updates!

Okay ya'll!! It's me the slacker! Life's been busy and of course we don't have the internet, so it's hard to find time to come to Jenn's to "network". But here I am, totally redeeming myself. If you look below, I posted 3 other blogs of life here on the Johnson Ranch. Lots of exciting things happening!

Doug and I will be celebrating our 7th wedding anniversary this Sunday! We don't have any plans except to put Hailey to bed early and "watch" movies :).

As for our little Hailey, she is now 8 months old!

She is eating lots of yummy foods and we are getting ready to introduce Tofu! I just love her so much and she's so much fun!

In case you couldn't tell by some of my recent pics, I'm really packin' it on! So i've made a goal to lose 30 lbs by Hailey's first birthday! And I'm running the half marathon with Brynn in April! It's been a challenge to get back into an exercise routine and it's hard to find the time! But I've really been making it a priority the past 3 weeks and I'm up to 3 miles already! I'll be posting my progress as I go on and hopefully I'll be fitting back into my old pants again!

Hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving and I promise to post more often!

Hey Edward, Suck This! (that didn't come out good huh!)

We were some of those crazy girls that went to the midnight showing of Twilight! I loved it! Sure there were parts that didn't match what I thought they should be, but I still loved it! And Edward was the hottest darn vampire I've ever seen!

Jenn and I were so witty and made us all shirts to wear out for out GNO! I think they're pretty clever!

NKOTB Baby! That's right!

Jenn, Camie and I went to the New Kids on the Block Concert on November 15! It was my 2nd time seeing them live! I went back in '90 and if it's possible, they have only gotten better! I don't think i've screamed that much ever! It was the best night and I fell in love with them all over again!

Baby, I believe in you. . . and every little thang you do!

They were bustin' moves like you wouldn't believe! And they're new jams are fabulous!

Here we are at the Training Table lookin' fly! Here's what we were thinking:

Jenn: "I hope that Jonathan sees me and asks me backstage!"

Camie: "Jordan baby, come to momma!"

Kristy : "Maybe this body glitter will get Donnie's attention and he'll pull me on stage for Covergirl"

The next day, I was feeling nostalgic and I got out my old box of New Kids posters and pins. Too funny!

And to all you haters. . .you're just jealous! I heart New Kids! TLA

Halloween - Meow!

We had a fun Halloween this year! Momma kitty and baby kitty went to mommy's work for Halloween and I got to show her off! That night, we went trick or treating with her cousins!

Look at us hot ladies of East High! Meow!

Picking out our Pumpkins!

Daddy and Hailey play dress up!!

Our little pumpkin is now 7 months old!! I can't believe it! She is doing so good and loving this whole solid food thing! Everything is movin' along great! I didn't know so many of you like Colors! If I'd known, I would have made you all go with us! I'm on their mailing list so when they do reunion shows, I'm the first to know! NERD ALERT! Last week while she was home with daddy, I got a picture on my cell phone of what the two of them were up to. . . apparently he decided to play dress up in her camo shirt that Uncle Matt gave her! Yes she is holding a bow and arrow! Aren't dad's just the best?

She is now 7 months old and getting bigger than the dog now! We put tights on her for the first time and her legs look like little sausages!We had to give her prunes one day. she actually loved them!Her first pumpkin! She looks much happier with daddy! Oh the casualties of mealtime! Here's her horn of squash!

Yummy, Yummy in my tummy!!

Gina and I went to the Colors concert a few weeks ago! I love Colors! Thanks Gina for going with me! It was a lot of fun and they were worth every penny!


Here's Miss Hailey in her new Hippo Jammies! She looks so cute in them!

Her first bites of food! She loves eating!


Her 6 month picture! She's growing so fast!

So Hailey is doing so well! She had her 6 month check up with dreamy Dr. Dimick on Monday! Big 15 lbs, 10 oz! and 27 inches long! He was really impressed with her and how well she's done! She's sitting up all by herself, but not quite rolling over yet!

She's eating lots of different things that mommy is cookin' up! Sweet Potatoes, Carrots, Avacados, Oatmeal and Rice. Our next endeavor is butternut squash! It's fun making it and way cheaper! I found a cool website: www.wholebabyfoods.com

I went up and saw cute Trevor Eastman last week! I just love all of his hair! Too cute! Can't wait for him and Hailey to play together!

Back to Work!!! Too busy to think!!

So here's our monthly update for the Johnson Fam!! I am back to work, thus the lack of blogs this month. It's been really hard on momma to leave Miss Hailey, but she's doing very well with the changes and she's just growing so much! We found an amazing babysitter on Wed through Fri. Hailey just loves Sonja's house! Hailey turns 6 months old tomorrow! She's very close to rolling over and sitting up! Can't believe how fast it's gone by & how big she is now! Here she is in her Braves outfit, Daddy's favorite! Great Great Aunt Suzie sent us the cutest pink one that doesn't quite fit her yet, but when it does it will be picture time again!
She has discovered her toes and her voice! She's got the cutest soft talks, but when she's mad, she can sure tell us now! I can't help but laugh though because she's such a drama queen!

Tomorrow we will be giving her cereal for the first time! I have made the decision to make all of her baby food and have found some really cool websites and books to help me on this adventure! We gave her one of her spoons to test out and she loved it! Gagged herself a few times! Definately a Lloyd!

I sort of went buck wild at the Quilted Bear and bought quite a few hair bows! I couldn't stop and she looks so stinkin' cute in them!
Daddy and Hailey! She's loves him!

My neice Elsie is growing so fast! Already over a month old and I believe she's quite the drama queen as well! Last Sunday she got blessed! She looks so cute! Her big brother Isaak is so proud and very protective of his "baby sister" as he calls her! He is growing up too! He started Pre School this week and found a friend to chase the girls around at recess with! They yell "Girls Stink" as they chase them!
So that's the recap! We got some cute pics done at Kiddy Kandids that I will have to post! She's starting to fit into all of her cute dresses! Here she is dressed up in her cute Levi Mini lookin' all sorts of stylish!

My Sweet Neice!!

Born August 6, 2008Jenn is doing really good! Isaak is loving this lil' thang! He's so proud! Hailey is also excited to finally have a girl cousin to play with!She looks a lot like Jenn, but also a lot like Duke! Cute little pouty lips and even a dimple to match her cute cousin Hailey!

Here are some new pics of our little ham! She loves taking a dip in the bath! And smiling for mommy!
Here she is with me at work this week chewing on her favorite toy!

New Pics of the Princess!!

Hailey got her new bed last week! I love love love it! My awsome co-workers at East High contributed to a gift for us and we received almost $600 for her crib! Awsome!

Here she is with her silky blanky! She loves to rub it against her face while she's falling asleep!
4 month pic! The dog is getting smaller and she's getting bigger!

The BUMBO! Dr Dimick told us her head was looking a little flat, so we have to prop her on her side at night to sleep and we bought a BUMBO for her to chill in. She looks so grown up in it!

Another cute thing is that Hailey laughed for the first time today! Doug was making faces at her and she just all out giggled! Doug and I both started laughing and then we looked at each other and we were both crying! I love being a mommy so much!!
