What do you think?

It may be the adorable baby cheeks, but I really think Josie looks like Tyson! One thing is for sure...she's an Anderson!

Tyson hasn't changed much

We were looking at older pictures and came across this one. I think Tyson has grown a little since Joel has seen him last. Tyson doesn't have the cute little face anymore! Left - April 2008, Right - Feb 2010

Josie - 24 Weeks

Look at how much I've grown! 5 Weeks old and 5 months old!

Josie loves her daddy! She smiles at him every time she sees him!
Doesn't Josie look like that talking baby on the e-trade commercial?
Last night I bought some organic single-grain oat cereal and gave it to Josie. She loved it! Gobbled up 4 whole tablespoons like she was starving. And then she was a HAPPY girl!! I mean sit-in-the-exersaucer-for-20-minutes-without-fussing happy. And she was all smiles. She didn’t get any rashes and after her bath we put on hydrocortisone cream and her skin looks pretty good. Then she slept the whole night through until 8:30am. What?! That’s awesome! Then she had some more Oatmeal cereal, played for an hour (again all smiles), and now she’s taking a long morning nap. What a perfect day!

Josie -23 Weeks

Well, Josie is definitely allergic to rice. I'm so sad. I gave her some organic-no additive rice cereal and she still broke out in a slight rash. Granted, it wasn't nearly as bad as last time...but still enough that I'm sure it itched and was uncomfortable. So, I guess we'll have to have a talk with the Pediatrician about what this little girl can eat. Rice is supposed to be so mild...I'm concerned this means she won't be able to eat anything! :-( boo! Maybe every time I'll feed her I'll just mix benadryl in with her food. Haha...

PICTURES!

We took some pics in February of the family. Danielle King took the family pics and a friend took some pics of Corbin.

Josie - 5 Months

It's so hard to believe that Josie is already 5 months old! What a month it has been...I'm glad to say good-bye February...Welcome March! Most of the last month has been really, really difficult. My work requested that we work 60+ hours per week and and all of a sudden I had a million things to do every day on top of taking care of Josie (which is the highlight of my day every day). And then Josie's day-care provider had sick kids and then Josie got dirahhea for two weeks straight and then I got sick- more sick than I've been since I was in 4th grade. I just hope we all don't get sick again for a long, long time! This is Josie's new favorite pose! She literally will not stay on her back for more than 15 seconds before she rolls over onto her stomach. This wouldn't be a big problem...except Josie hates being on her stomach. I'm not exactly sure why she doesn't realize that rolling over makes her end up on her stomach...but maybe she'll get it soon!

The biggest problem of Josie being on her stomach is that when she gets tired she doesn't like turning or lifting her head. So most of the time she lays there nose-planted to the ground. It's especially bad when she spits up and it gets in her eyes or nose. That's when I feel like a really great mom!

This position is also especially bad at night. Every night we swaddle Josie in her SwaddleMe and put her to sleep. The last several nights she'll wake herself up in the middle of the night, roll over, and then shriek because she's suddenly on her stomach, nose-planted in her crib. She's not as proficient at rolling from her stomach to her back...but it's nearly impossible when she's swaddle. We're pretty worried about it to say the least. And the last couple of nights she's been waking up almost every 2 hours and we have to go in and roll her over onto her back again and rub her head and help her fall back to sleep.

But she is the cutest thing ever and Josie makes up for our lack of sleep by being so fun at times!

Pics of Josie's rash from rice cereal.

Josie loves being naked-probably because clothes don't feel good on her skin. Her rolling over acrobatics makes Naked Baby Time/Diaper Time more difficult, but certainly more adorable every day.

Look how much Tyson talks now......

.....than when you left Joel!

Jason, Corbin and Tyson were in the front room listening to music while Emily was on the computer. She didn't realize that the boys were busy making a music video.

Tyson and his diaper

Tyson took off his pants and diaper and pee'd on our floor. He put back on his pants backwards and pulled his diaper up over them. It was funny except for his accident.

Josie Tries Cereal

Josie had her first taste of rice cereal this morning...and this is how she felt about it:

She wasn't very impressed with the cereal, but she did seem to enjoy being in her high chair. It's the first time that we put her in it!

We think Josie is the cutest!

Jonah Field

Dad was asked to speak to the BP Ward on Thursday night so I drove up with him. He also wanted to drive over to the new Pinedale office so we took the cut-off from BP to Pinedale and drove through the Jonah Field. You can see that even BP hasn't gotten much snow this year.

 

 

 

This is the industrial area at the end of the cut-off road and where you would turn to head to Rock Springs. It has really grown. I forgot to get any pics of the new Redi building!

 

Videos on Valentine's Day

Corbin

Tyson and Kasey on a bike race with the Wii.

Sword fighting and guess who could win!?! As you can tell, we all got a kick out of Tyson!

Deja Vue.......

.......not quite, but kind of.......see how different the boys look in the same outfit! They are about the same age in these pictures. And look how young Joel and Jessica look! Wow! 3 years makes a difference!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Happy Valentine's Day!

I hope Josie got hers in the mail. If not, it should be there on Monday. I bought the grandbabies a Noah's Ark with animals. Tyson went wild with his and Corbin's tonight. I'm glad he enjoyed it, even though it wasn't a car. :)

 

 

The boxes on the table behind the boys are from another wrecked truck. Animal crackers, saltines and Golden Bears were some of the goodies we were able to get.
