At the end of September, I decided to get away for a week before returning to work. So I packed my bags and took a little road trip to Salt Lake, Utah to visit some friends. :) It was a looonnngg 13ish hr. drive, but so worth it! I had a blast! Here's a few memories I made there:
- sleeping on a "love sac"
- meeting Derrick, Ben, and Leslie
- Cafe Rio
- purchasing perfume out of a truck in the Wendy's parking lot
- finding long, lost "Fred" in Ross
- becoming friends with a drunk girl and a surfer? ha
- had a homeless man sing to my friends & me
- met Arthur, while he sang a love song to David <--hilarious!
- dancing at "ONE"
- Denny's at 3:00 a.m. (took an hour to find it. turned out to be right around the corner from where we were to begin with)
- Had a guy (Steven), tell David he was sexy and he wanted him. haha
- B.J's (Ben & Jerry's)
- Bbqing
- Shopping
- Attended school with Cortney for a day
- Stayed in my vehicle one night watching Law Abiding Citizen
- Walgreens.. Mhmm
-Kholes
- Licence plate game
Even though I had a lot of fun!...I counted down the days to finally get home to Jaxton James! I missed him like crrrazzzyy!!
The morning after getting back from Utah, was the day for me to return to work at 1st Choice. Before mat.leave I worked at the Cardston branch, but seems how I moved to Lethbridge in June, I was transferred to a branch here. I am enjoying the branch here, even though it is a little bit different...so there are things I'm going to have to get used to. No biggie.
Thanksgiving was a bit different this year. Instead of going to both Brandon and my parents, we had our own Thanksgiving dinner. Jaxton's 1st! He loved all the food, almost as much as I did. I think he enjoyed the sweet potatoes with melted marshmallows on top,the most.
Well, Jaxton James is officially 1yrs old!! It's a bitter-sweet moment for me. He's getting so big, so fast. I hate it...but I love it! A few things about Jaxton over the past year:
- Born at home on October 29,2010 @ 1:33p.m.
-Weighed in @ 9pounds 2 ounces
- Slept through the night by 1 week old (and still does)
- Loved his swing & jolly jumper
- Mastered the army crawl for quite awhile
-LOVES food! Never had to teach him to eat.
- Dances to everything...head bang and all! (Big Bang Theory intro.song is his favorite...ooo and the Gummi Bear song)
- Hates wearing hats. He rips them off, throws it to the ground and giggles.
- Already does not like the color pink. He won't touch it.
- He claps with a huge grin on his face
- Jax has a grumpy face down pat...thanks to Uncle Colton for teaching him that!
- He can say, "Dada", "Mama", and "Hi"
- Loves his stuffed monkeys...gives them hugs & giggles.
- Jax gets into everything and anything!
For his birthday, Jaxton just happened to be really sick. :( poor baby! I did not get many pictures because he was crying and grumpy most the day.
Jax is my world! He is the best baby boy anyone could ask for! And I'm glad he's all mine!!
