still here!!

Hey everyone!! Just checking in to let everyone know we're still alive!! This last week has been crazy. Last Monday Jayden and Mommy flew to Bend, Oregon with Grandma Dottie to visit Uncle Sam, Auntie Andrea, Owen, Everett, and Eleni. It was a GREAT trip!! Jayden did ok on the flight up. He passed out while we taxied out to the runway and all were hoping he would sleep the whole flight. As luck would have it we had some mechanical difficulties with the plane and had to go BACK to the gate to get it fixed. By the time all this was done, Jayden woke up and was awake the whole flight. All in all he didn't do too horribly.

He LOVED playing with his cousins and their dog, Laska, and cat, Jazz. The poor kid was so stimulated he slept like a rock (no complaints from mommy!) . We flew home THursday night and took off right at bedtime. Jayden slept the WHOLE flight. It was wonderful. Friday we hung out in L.A. and Daddy came up and met us!! We were VERY excited to see him. Daddy arrived with Tito's Tacos in hand and also brought Jason (see pics below!). Friday night was birthday dinner for Daddy at Grandma Dottie and Grandpa Phil's! It was wonderful. Then Saturday Mommy and Daddy left for a night away in Pismo Beach while Jayden hung out with Grandma, Grandpa, and Stephanie!! It was wonderful (pics to come!).

Monday was Daddy's actual birthday and we spent the day running some errands (ah the life of a parent...what a way to spend the birthday!). We got our car fixed, Daddy got his driver's license renewed. It was all such great fun! The day was topped off by dinner with Grandma Gayle and Grandpa Roger at Mongolian BBQ. Tasty!!

Here are a couple pics we have of the time with Jason. All the rest will be here soon.

Here is Jayden chomping on a carrot!! We are DEFINITELY teething. For all you other mommies out there, don't worry, we didn't let him bite off any pieces! :)
