Fun in Idaho

There are 3 grandchildren on the Hansen side and here they are! Jayci, Dez, and baby Brooklyn. Grandma Erickson provided the matching dresses (thank you!!) and they look ADORABLE!!
Here's our newest family picture!
Somewhere in my old postings I have a picture of Jayci about this age "playing the piano"- Dez looks just as cute!
I can't believe how grown up this girl looks- and look at those eyes!! I love putting her in blue because it just makes them SHINE!
And here's just us- so happy and in love! :) Life is good!

Happy Birthday #2!!

We celebrated Jayci's b-day while we were in Idaho. This was the tea set she got- she LOVES princesses! She keeps asking me for water, but I tell her to pretend, so she keeps coming to me saying "Here's pretend to be water mom!"
Jayci opening her tea set...
Random- this is just Janessa and Josh playing with Dez at the party but I thought it was cute!!
Jayci w/ Gramps. They celebrated together! It was awesome fun to see Gr and Gr Erickson- we sure miss and love you guys!
Jayci's cake. Gramps and Jayci had the same cake, except Jayci's whip cream was pink and she had princesses! :) Happy #2!!

BIG Test and Temple Trip

Jason took his BIG test- the Dental Boards- on July 31st. It was during our "summer break". While he was taking his test in SLC I was able to take the girls to the Salt Lake Temple. Jayci loved all the "waterfalls" (like at the Conference Center and the fountains). She was a TROOPER! I didn't have a stroller and she walked the entire time from around 11:30 until Jase finished his test around 3. She had a couple breakdowns, but all in all, I was super impressed with how much energy she had! Of course, she and Dez both fell asleep instantly when we got back into the car to go pick up daddy! :) Anyway- here are some pics of our little temple trip and Jase's study material- once he finished, he spread it all out on the floor and took pics with it. We're SO glad to be DONE!!! Oh, and we got his scores back a couple weeks later and he did really well- so we're REALLY glad to be done!

Good Times!

Fun times! We went to 2 b-day parties in 1 day- on eof which was a pool party. It was awesome fun! Jayci and Aimee had some fun chillin' in our neighbor's wagon and the picture of Dez is w/ a little boy named Mason who, though he's a month younger than her, actually weighs a few oz more! He he he- We also just recently bought a new toddler bed for miss Jayci- she has done really well w/ the transition and we're excited! She LOVES her "princess bed" and is always asking us to tell her the stories of "Snow White" "Cinda-drella" and "Princess Aurora". She's such a doll!

Project 52: Dentist Family Date Night

For one of Jase's date nights we decided to to a family photo shoot of the 'Dr. Hansens'! It was great fun!!

Matching Dresses!

We put the girls in matching dresses for the 1st time and, of course, it was the perfect time for a photo shoot! It was quite an adventure trying to get them to sit still together and smile at the camera all at the same time! But we got some fun shots. They're such happy girls!! What a blessed mother I am.

Daddy and his girls

We've had to start supplementing formula for Dez, she wasn't gaining enough weight and she always seemed to be hungry. The formula has really improved her disposition. :) So the top 2 are daddy feeding her a bottle and Jayci trying to help out, and the bottom one is Dez having some daddy daughter snuggle time. Happy!
