3 Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed

We spent last weekend with my sister Charlie in Safford and had a very good time. While we were there we had the air mattress out and the kids had a BLAST!!! In the first video its so funny because Parker falls of the bed and then in the second video which was right after he just couldn't get the courage to jump. Its funny how it all plays out. Pete I hope you can view this in Africa.

Our Summer

Today one of my aunts called and said her and my other aunt have major bones to pick with me. I was like OH MAN what have I done but... It was only my lack of blogging. So I guess there is family that want to know about us so... i will try to do better. A lot has happened since are last post in April. Summer has come and gone and Fall is here. We have had a new baby Kayden Carl Judd. Here are a few pictures that recap our summer.

First is our trip to Tucson. Bryce has a conference is Tucson every year and we always have so much fun. We swim and swim and swim. Jackson really got comfortable in the water this summer. The hotel we stayed in had a water slide, lazy river and a couple of fun swimming pools. Saturday morning we had a Sponge Bob extravaganza and on Saturday there was a Dive in Movie around the lazy river. We had lots and lots of fun

Udall Family Reunion!

Next, we had the Udall family Reunion. We camped with the Family on Friday and then Bryce and I and our kids and Charlie, Pete and Parker stayed the night Saturday. We had lots of fun. Bryce, Jackson and Pete went fishing where Jackson caught his first fish. His dad nor Pete caught a fish and Jackson was sure to rub that in there face. He kept saying Dad how come I caught a fish and you didn't. It was really quite hilarious.

Kayden Carl Judd

The Next main event was Kayden Carl Judd. Kayden was born on August 18th and 8:45 in the morning. I went to the doctor that Tuesday morning and she told me I was still a week or so away so... I was very surprised when I went into labor that night. He weight 5 lbs 10 oz by far my smallest baby. So far he is such a good baby. I am very surprised by his super white skin and reddish hair. He looks exactly like his Daddy. Its scary that 2 people can look so much alike

Jackson

Jackson...

Jackson has started Pre-school and absolutely loves Miss Roni. He loves singing songs, seeing his friends and I think he just likes to get away.

Jackson is always making me laugh. I hate to say that I get my best laughs during family prayer. That may be awful but it is true. Last night he was praying that everyone and there dog would be safe and sleep good. Well he gets to our family and says, "Bless my mommy, daddy, Jackson and my Kenna and my Kayden to all sleep good then he pauses for about 30 seconds and then says in my Mommy's bed." It was so hilarious because we have been working so hard to get him out of our bed. Jackson is also into Captain Hook. He has a sword and carries around the dough hook to my mixer and yells, "Ill Get you Pan if its the last thing I do." I don't know why he likes the villain so much but oh well. Here are Jacksons favorite things to do...

1. Watch the letter factory



2. Go to Pre-School



3. Go to Hotels and swim under the waterfalls



4. Ride horses with Brama



5. Play with Gage



6. Look for Arrowheads



7. Ride his Ranger with Parker



8. Go to the Green Park



9. Collet the eggs from the Chicken Hoop



10. Go to Bramas house

Pictures of the Kids

Makenna

Makenna....

What can we say about our little almost 2 year old. She has more personality that 10 people should have. She is our little princess!! I love the 3rd picture because is shows what a little mother she already is. She defiantly already mothers poor little Kayden. For the most part Makenna loves her brothers. She likes to torment Jackson and he and I have a secret trick we play on Makenna sometimes. Makenna doesn't ever really want something until Jackson has it so for example if Jackson wants to lay by me at night but so does Kenna we say, "Who wants to lay by Daddy and she hurries and says me" before Jackson can say anything. It works every time. She loves to sing Twinkle Twinke Little Star, Baa Baa Black sheep and Row Row Row your boat. She has many others that she sings but those are her favorite. The last little story I will tell of Makenna is... the other day I was working out and having the hardest time (I am really out of shape). Well Makenna was watching me and laughing. I finally looked over at her and she says your so Funny Marcis (she calls me Marcis, not mom). I couldn't help but laugh because I knew I looked like an idiot trying to do some of those workout moves. Makennas' top 10 favorite things to do are...

1. Go to the Park


2. Ride on the vroom vroom (4-wheeler)


3. Go for a walk in the stroller


4. Read books


5. Paint her fingernails


6. Go to Damas house


7. Jump on the beds


8. Steel Parkers Pacifier


9. Sing songs


10. Play with Jackson

I love these pictures of her eating her corn on the cob. She takes eating very seriously (just like her mother). The second picture is so cute because she is making sure she leaves not even one kernel of corn behind!!

This post is for me to remember don't fill obligated to read it.

The last few months Jackson has said some really fun things. We have been learning about naughty words and whenever anyone says a naughty word he is very quick to correct you. Well the other day I said Stupid without even realizing I said it. He quickly told me that I said a naughty word. I asked what word I said and he quickly spelled the s-t-u-p-i-d word. So I guess spelling the word instead of saying it is not going to work.

I will have to post the others as I remember. Charlie if you read this call me and tell me the stories I have told you.

Here are a few pictures of my sweet little Makenna. She loves her car seat as long as it is not in the truck. Whenever we go anywhere it takes us at least 30 minutes to get loaded into the car because she wants to buckle herself. She is so independent and sweet. In most of these pictures she is almost 18 months old. She says mamma and dadda. Whenever she sees a camera she says cheese wheather it is pointed at her or not. At night when she won't relax I ask her if she wants to go to her crib she says uhhh uhhh (meaning no) then I say if you don't lay down you are going to your crib she then says peese peese (please) Its really cute. She calls her brother bubba and says a few other cute words that I can't remember right now.






The kids were playing with the camera and Jackson took this picture of her when she was just beginning to throw her fit!! Good picture for a 3 year old




Two days in a row she climbed on my bed at nap time and fell asleep. I love that she brought her crackers with her.

I am finally posting a few pictures of a few things we did this winter. Over Christmas break we went to Papa and Grandma Judy's and went slepding with the cousins. The kids had so much fun. Jackson though it was so much fun to snowboard (that was he thought sleding was) that he and his dad went a few other times in Show Low. Everytime we pass by the hills they went sleding on he comments on how much fun he had.






I think it was Christmas night that St. Johns got a little snow so Bryce and my Mom hooked a tube up to a 4-wheeler and pulled Jackson around the back yard. It was so cold but he would not come in. He had a BLAST !!
