Lots to update... pictures to come soon. I am trying to stay up on my 365 day blog and notice if it's not one blog, it's another that is falling behind. Not sure I'll do three blogs next year. Might be time to consolidate them into one or maybe just two blogs. Doesn't seem necessary to have my stuff scattered across three blogs and some of the stuff gets double posted. In any case, a run down...</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

We stay at a condo that sits just in front of the parking lot that they let the Park City fire works off. We're able to sit inside and just watch them from the window. It's fabulous! We always swim, eat lots of yummy treats, go on the Alpine Slide, shop, etc. This year being prego, we opted not to do the Alpine Slide so we swam extra and hung out more as a family just inside the condo. The kids didn't seem to mind. They love hanging out with their daddy! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Dad hadn't come to get Jett yet, so I had the kids. I freak out in crowds. I don't like them or the idea that my kids can get lost. We sat in the shade discussing what to do in case I couldn't find them. A good friend of mine had an experience once and because she had prepared her children for it, it ended with the perfect outcome.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div>So... there I was kinda the frantic, prego lady trying to listen to when Sky's events were up. In the mix of it all... I missed the call for the 50 meter dash. When I figured it out, I had her go up to her coach and find out what she could do. She cried. The coach had her race the 50 meters with the older group of girls which meant, she got last of course. She cried more. Not good for the ego. I asked her coach if there was any way she could run the 100 meter with her age group even though she wasn't registered to do so. She allowed her to do it. It was then up to me to convince Sky who was completely depleted to try it. Dad showed up just then and I explained... He was able to convince her to try it. I'm so glad she did! She pulled it together and ran the race. And then... took SECOND! It was smiles from there on out! And a text to Dad to tell him the news! <br />

Jett, enjoyed dad helping him and was starting to get the hang of it. This frustrated Sky even more.

She was an amazing teacher and knew just how to handle my little Sky and all her quarks. She knew how to push her but in a way she could handle it. She's a perfectionist and SO hard on herself. She had a great year!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Here's how we spent the last day of school...</div><div style="text-align: center;">First... we said goodbye to her teacher and friends. They were dismissed early after collecting their final things so we left and went to lunch, McDonalds of course. Then we took Jett to school and just me and the girls went to Gardner Village. I wanted to peak into the fabric store, looking for something to make the girls for the wedding in July and they wanted to go to the candy store and see the ducks. It was an absolutely gorgeous afternoon and we enjoyed every second of our time just walking around taking our sweet time! I made them stop for a few pictures of course. It was a happy couple of hours there, with not just candy from the candy store, but a donut and cheetos too! Then we headed to get Jett and back home to change clothes so Sky could go to track practice. Sky loves to run and is good at it, so I signed her up for track. I don't know a thing about running, or track, so this is new for me, but so far so good. Then we headed over to a T-Ball meeting for Jett and finally home for dinner, baths and bed! It was a fully loaded day, but FUN nonetheless!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Can you tell? This seems to be my battle EVERY Easter, I want so badly to get a picture of them in their darling outfits and perfect hair. But this is ALWAYS what I end up getting, them freaking out cause it's "too bright." It was perfectly overcast, and I thought I had a chance, but nope. It was the same complaint... "too bright." This was the best I could do. ERRRrrr... the battle continues.</div><div id="lightBoxPhoto" style="display: block; text-align: center;"><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/16683744_2MXcsD#1265695042_8KtmJ5L"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/i-8KtmJ5L/0/XL/mlc%20-%20just%20frames%206-XL.jpg" style="height: 768px; width: 1012px;" /></a></div>Flash Jorgensenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00951149652579190246noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8173073776268787182.post-58033244010490414672011-04-19T14:11:00.000-06:002011-04-19T14:11:44.681-06:00Well...<div style="text-align: center;">So I may not be keeping up on my <a href="http://www.stephajorgensen.blogspot.com/">365 day blog </a>perfectly, but I'm trying. On some of the days I have a really hard time picking JUST ONE picture for my 365, so here I go again, posting some others from last night. After their bath, Jett was hilarious with his hair. After I walked away, I heard him making boy noises as if he were a super hero. He is a crack up. The bath experience carried on into today. This morning while I was down doing laundry, I knew Brooke and Jett had gotten some small toys and were playing with them in the water in the sink. But that exploded into a full on water fight and laughter to make anyone smile. I ran upstairs with frustration, knowing they were making a mess by this point, but by the time I got to the bathroom door, I was laughing to myself. I could hear nothing but laughter and belly giggling. I stood there listening and smiling for at least twenty minutes while they continued on with their water game. When I finally opened the door, I found two totally soaked naked kids having the time of their lives!<a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/16683744_2MXcsD#1258015748_Vb8QH2x"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/6/1258015748_Vb8QH2x-M.jpg" style="height: 399px; width: 600px;" /></a><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/16683744_2MXcsD#1258013333_CWbWm93"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/1/1258013333_CWbWm93-M.jpg" style="height: 399px; width: 600px;" /></a><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/16683744_2MXcsD#1258014170_5TDpCFS"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/3/1258014170_5TDpCFS-M.jpg" style="height: 399px; width: 600px;" /></a><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/16683744_2MXcsD#1258015099_6Wn9sHL"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/5/1258015099_6Wn9sHL-M.jpg" style="height: 399px; width: 600px;" /></a><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/16683744_2MXcsD#1258031932_WWWsDF3"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/2/1258031932_WWWsDF3-M.jpg" style="height: 399px; width: 600px;" /></a><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/16683744_2MXcsD#1258032521_HB8wgK9"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/365-Day-extras-2011/3/1258032521_HB8wgK9-M.jpg" style="height: 399px; width: 600px;" /></a></div><div id="lightBoxPhoto" style="display: block;"><div style="text-align: center;"></div></div>Flash Jorgensenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00951149652579190246noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8173073776268787182.post-72623738592674746982011-04-13T19:29:00.000-06:002011-04-13T19:29:25.397-06:00An addition...<div style="text-align: center;">to my <a href="http://www%2Estephajorgensen@blogspot.com/">365 blog</a>... today, Brooke was my subject.

I want to be prepared for lots of pictures of this perfect little boy who's on his way. Brooke was adorable and there are a few shots I wanted to remember. She's a crack up!

It's certainly a moment in my life that has changed the way I act, feel and hopefully in the end treat others. So to explain.. several days ago, I felt pain in the back of my right knee. It hurt to bend down as if my ligament was going to pop or something. I let it go, hoping it was just a weird pain connected to being prego. I remember then my calf getting tight as if I had worked it out at the gym for hours. It felt sore in that way. I kept walking on it hoping to stretch it out, keep it warm and thinking it would go away, just as soreness does when you work out. It didn't. On Tuesday night, I woke up at 3am in excruciating pain. I sat up wanting to run to get Extra Strength Tylenol (that being the only pain medicine I can take pregnant). I got up and half way down the hall stopped in the bathroom, held myself up with the counter afraid I was going to throw up, the pain was so bad. I managed to make it down stairs, get the tylenol and climb back in bed. I prayed that the tylenol would ease the pain til morning when I could call the doctor. I managed to fall back to sleep. In the morning, when I arose, I jumped on the computer looking for answers to what was wrong. Leg cramps seemed to be a common answer amongst pregnant women and pregnancy websites. I read others ways to treat were extra amounts of water, milk for the calcium and stretching or massaging the legs. Then at the very bottom of one website, it said, "but if the pain persists, it may be the sign of a blood clot and to call your doctor." When I read that, I knew. The pain behind my knee had not lessened and my calf seemed even more tight than it did days ago. I called my doctor only to find out she wasn't in on Wednesdays and neither was her nurse. I left a message, knowing it might not be until morning when I heard back. I went about my day. My mother in law arrived in town and was planning to spend the day with us and the kids. It was our day out of the week she had planned. I felt obligated to shower and show her and the kids a good time. I limped around, going to visit a sister in law and then onto Ross for some shopping. It wasn't horrible but I found myself in a lot of pain at the end. Around 5:00pm we decided to meet up with a brother in law and some cousins at Chick-fil-et. It was then I received a late phone call from the genetics counselor with my final results of my integrated screening. I sent the kids and mother in law in to eat while I listened to the results. My leg aching and a migraine headache taking its course had my arm numb at the time of the call. I was a mess physically and now emotionally. The results came back that there was now a 1 in 2 chance that this baby had Downs syndrome. It was absolute devastation, we're talking 50/50 like is it a boy or a girl. The chances suddenly the most scary thing I had ever heard in my whole life. I sat there alone, sick, and in pain. I got off the phone and let out a cry like no other time in my life. I begged for comfort from the Lord to get me through this hour. In a matter of moments, a call came in from my actual doctors office having just received the same results, they were calling to talk to me on a more personal level. They knew me, they knew my situation, and thank goodness for that call. Cindy's voice was the most comforting thing to hear in that moment. She talked to me about the results, and then noticed that I had called in earlier in the day with leg cramps. She asked me, "Steph, I see a note here, you have leg cramps?" I explained how it had become more than just cramps and the reason for the call was because I read online the possibility of blood clots. I mentioned that it was a red flag for me knowing my sister had a pulmunary embolism when she was pregnant last. She asked the doctor on call and relayed what I had said. The doctor on call told me to immediately go to the emergency room and tell them to do an ultrasound on my leg. I did just that. It could not have been a better situation. My mother in law drove me and the kids home. My mom who was on her way home from work at the time, stopped at my house and was able to drive me up to LDS hospital where my husband later met me. Knowing the results of my screening, I knew I wanted to do an amnio to determine definitely if the baby was Downs or not. I could not receive those odds and not take the risk now of an amnio. I want to be prepared. I think it's fair to take that risk having been given those odds. So because of that knowledge, they set me up on Hepprin, a blood thinner they could shut off, reverse and still be able to give me an amnio. Again, the timing was perfect in that regard. Had I come in earlier in the day or even the day prior considering the pain I was in, they would have put me on shots and sent me home, a blood thinner harder to reverse and more risky to do the amnio having been on them. The Lord had prepared the way... The night prior to all of this, I had been given a Priestood Blessing. It just so happened my mother in law hitched a ride with a friend so she could be in Utah this week. It just so happened she was with me on the day this all took place and was planning to spend the night with us anyway. She was able to be there and care for the kids and I didn't have to worry about that. The timing of the results allowed me to get the amnio without the blood thinners causing a problem or from preventing me of getting that test. And the miracles continue. Today, I had the amnio. The fear of the doctor doing it was where would my placenta be? Would she have to go through it? And would the bleeding be a problem for me or the baby? I wasn't the ideal patient having been on blood thinners for two days. The amnio went perfect, the baby stayed completely out of the way, the placenta was exterior meaning she could avoid going through it, and she found a good pocket of fluid to draw from. There was no bleeding by me, so she was able to get good clear fluid and I didn't have a bleeding issue to deal with. In all of this stress and fear, I have felt nothing but peace within my heart. I don't know the results, and it's scary, but I can't get over the amount of peace. I didn't feel that peace when the results were given to me, but in the moments following it, I feel it in a way that is unbelievable to me. I'm a crier. I don't handle things like this well. I have cried, don't get me wrong, but even in those moments, I have felt amazing peace. I haven't felt scared like I did when I hung up the phone. In that moment I cried out to the Lord to please be with me, it came immediately and hasn't left. I am not afraid, I have seen the Lords hand and know it's there more now than ever. I know He knows what I can handle. He knows what I can't. He has made the last few days go miraculously smooth for me, that I know for sure! So today, I sit here having made a few hurdles and still have a few to face, but I know I'll get through them. I have been blessed with the big miracles and even small ones. Sky was out of school this week and Jett is out of school next week. Makes things less hectic at home to manage. My Mother in Law is willing to stay and just fly home so she can care for the kids so I don't have to shuffle them from house to house while I'm in the hospital. It's crazy how well, things are working out. I know that whatever the outcome of this amnio, it will still be the perfect ending to my family. I have realized that it may not be my perfect idea but it may be the Lords perfect plan, in which I"m more than willing to take part in. </div>Flash Jorgensenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00951149652579190246noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8173073776268787182.post-46453585534155056362011-03-28T11:33:00.001-06:002011-03-28T11:34:58.992-06:00Presidents Club 2011<div style="text-align: center;">Each year, Neils has the opportunity to earn a trip with his company. There are requirements and goals that must be met for him to earn the free trip. We've gone every year (except one because we had a new baby not because he didn't earn it), since he's been with this company. We've been to Mexico a couple times, Maui, New York and now Honolulu, HI. It was a stressful week in preparation for the trip. There were so many times we'd say to each other, "Let's just not go." The only thing that kept me going was knowing this will be the last trip we get to be alone for awhile with a new baby on the way. Even though he will likely earn next years trip, I doubt I'll be going cause I'll be nursing and kids aren't allowed on these trips. So it was a big deal to get away with him. I wanted so badly to enjoy the trip and have some quality time with him. I did enjoy his company, no doubt, but it was quite the disappointment. Considering it was Hawaii, I was hoping to find it to be a lot like Maui. It's not anything like it as many of you may know. For those of you who don't. It's NOT worth the 7.5 hour flight there and the red eye back. That was complete torture and then to find that it wasn't anything more than being in a big, fancy Starwood Hotel on the California coast somewhere. I would have preferred the shorter flight. Maui was so cute, quaint, beachy shops and yummy little island restaurants, amazing snorkeling, and lush green areas to hike through, rainbows every day, and sunsets to die for. I was expecting it to be like that only with a big city plopped in the middle of it all. I guess I should have paid more attention to the opening of Hawaii 5-0 on T.V. but even that makes it seem better than it is. Anyway... enough griping about the disappointment and onto other things. We enjoyed ourselves. We always realize how nice it is to be away from the kids and be alone together. It was that for sure. We walked a lot, ate at The Cheesecake Factory and Subway, spent a day at Pearl Harbour and the Battleship Missouri, went to the company awards ceremony and then it was back home. Just before leaving, Brooke ran a fever on Saturday. It wasn't high, I figured she'd be okay. Mom said she seemed fine while I was gone, but Thursday morning when I returned, she was definitely running a fever. It lasted all weekend, but never really high. I hardly gave her Tylenol cause I wanted her little body to fight it off. Monday it seemed to be gone, so I decided not to go into see the doctor. But that night she crawled up on my lap at 7:00pm and fell asleep for the night. Tuesday, again she seemed okay, no fever but at 6:00pm she crawled up on my lap again, complaining of being tired and fell asleep in seconds. I mentioned this to my mom and she said, "you know it could be pneumonia since she's so tired." With that I made an appointment that second for first thing Wednesday morning. Sure enough it was. So all week we've spent recovering from that. Two whole weeks my poor little one was sick. I think today she's back! She's happy and healthy again! So, trip, what trip. I feel like it was a distant memory already. I came back and jumped right back into mother hood and caring for my little ones. But I wanted to post some pictures from our trip... what our experience was like. </div><div id="lightBoxPhoto" style="display: block; text-align: center;"><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Travel/Honolulu-Hawaii-Waikiki-Beach/Our-island-experience/16303216_i5UzY#1225198830_FGvw3"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Travel/Honolulu-Hawaii-Waikiki-Beach/Our-island-experience/1/1225198830_FGvw3-M-1.jpg" style="height: 399px;

Of course, Brooke wanted her turn and her picture taken. She always does! But with only a little bit of hair, it didn't blow much. I adore this picture of her though! I had to share!<br />

Sky and Neils share October and me and Brooke share May. He felt so left out. It was a REALLY big deal to him. So we told him, "well, then when you say your prayers you can ask Heavenly Father to send you a brother in September." Jett's prayer began immediately, "Please bless that my baby brother will come on September 2nd (the day after his)." We tried. We tried for a good year before we began to wonder if there was something wrong. I met with my OB to see what I could do. I took many tests, all of which continued to come back that I was perfectly fine. I could not have been more regular and exact in my cycle. It seemed weird. Neils even went and was tested, only to find out he was completely fine. I was told after all the results were in, that this is what they called unexplainable infertility. Not really what I wanted to hear. Friends were beginning to say, "Well you have three kids..." But I just couldn't imagine Jett not having a brother, or that I'd only have three kids in the end. I felt torn, knowing Neils and I were getting older by the second, the questions consumed me. Do I just move on with my three and be grateful for what I have? How long do I try? I finally decided that if I wasn't pregnant in time to have a baby in September, that I'd move on. I had to pick something and hold onto it. I did. The month that I THOUGHT I needed to be pregnant in order to have a September baby came and left. I cried hard. I cried to my mom and told her how devastating it was. Her immediate response was, "no, you can get pregnant in two weeks and have a September baby." Really? I thought about it and she was right. I mustered up some hope. I was super positive and hung onto that hope. I don't think it's any coincidence that we are pregnant and due in September. That little prayer by Jett was said hundreds of times, sometimes three times a day and more than once in each prayer.</div>Flash Jorgensenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00951149652579190246noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8173073776268787182.post-69111691970371952662011-01-01T10:40:00.003-07:002011-03-28T10:45:13.898-06:00<div style="text-align: center;">Today, I asked myself, what one thing symbolized the first day of a new year, or what do I want to accomplish this year. I started to think... and there were just too many ideas. UNTIL... I was at the gym running my heart out all the while watching a movie on Lifetime T.V. It was about these three fat ladies and their quest to get skinny again and what it was they wanted at the end of their journey. One said she wanted to wear a bikini, one said she wanted to fit into this lovely wedding dress and the other wanted a fancy pair of shoes. As I watched, what I call a silly show, but great in the way that it kept me running on that treadmill, I listened to these ladies discuss their determination and how they BELIEVED they could do this together. My thoughts quickly turned to the other night when I was playing the game Sequence for Kids with my three kids. My oldest, not great at losing was not handling it well. I tried to help her... I said, "You know how daddy thinks he is Green Light Neils-C, and how he always gets green lights? Well, it's because he BELIEVES he is. Do you understand what I'm saying? You need to believe that you can win this game and you'll be amazed at how many times you will win. But if you believe you're going to lose, I guarantee you'll lose the game every time." I got a bit of a nod from her through the tears, but it was my boy who I think understood the lesson best of all. The next day, in the van while driving, from the back of the van came his sweet little voice. He asked me, "Mom? Did you pass all your tests to have a baby?" I looked over at my husband with a curious look, wondering what he'd say next. "Yes, I responded, why do you ask?" He said, "Oh good, so now you just have to BELIEVE you'll have a baby and you will." Tears filled my eyes. So as I kept running, it hit me... BELIEVE! I just need to believe and I can do it.</div>Flash Jorgensenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00951149652579190246noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8173073776268787182.post-66842942854522843912010-11-02T10:15:00.001-06:002010-11-02T10:15:31.621-06:00Not my favorite way to end a day...<div style="text-align: center;">But believe it or not I feel incredibly blessed!!! It was about 5pm and I was still sitting around in my workout clothes and was contemplating jumping in the shower. The kids were outside and playing nicely. I had just checked on them and everything seemed fine so I thought I'd hurry and shower up. I heard something tell me as if it were someone talking to me, "Nah, just go outside and sit and watch your kids." Okay, I thought to myself, I'll do that. I can shower when everyone's back inside. What's another half hour of being in my workout clothes? So I did. The kids quickly lit up and ran over, "Watch this mom!" All three of them, they were showing me how high they could throw their balls in the air. Brooke's turn... she threw it up and ran after it as it came down. Splat! Down she went face first! I immediately went sick, telling myself as I ran over not to faint if her teeth have fallen out! I was sure that was the case. I scooped her up, blood gushing from her mouth. I brought her inside and washed her up. Her lip... that's it? It was HUGE, but her teeth still there. I thought she might need stitches in her lip, I wasn't sure, so I called dad at work. Relieved that her teeth still there and realizing what had just happened. Had I been in the shower, what might it have been like? Who would have helped her in the house? The blood would have been everywhere. And how quickly would I have been able to get out and help her? This was such a blessing! I am so grateful I listened and I'm so grateful she still has her two front teeth! But of course, pictures of it after a bath and being comforted... I love her!<a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/October2010/14194849_2XuoT#1074668598_rHxXw"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/October2010/1/1074668598_rHxXw-L.jpg" style="height: 532px; width: 800px;" /></a><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/October2010/14194849_2XuoT#1074669274_uejMa"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/October2010/2/1074669274_uejMa-L.jpg" style="height: 532px; width: 800px;" /></a></div>Flash Jorgensenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00951149652579190246noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8173073776268787182.post-42926576527671548822010-10-30T10:22:00.001-06:002010-11-02T10:34:06.120-06:00Never again...<div style="text-align: center;">A while back, I tried making "Cake Pops" with my sister in law. I saw the website, a tutorial and thought I could make those, no problem. I was first drawn in by the Hello Kitty ones and knowing how much my daughter loves Hello Kitty, I had to try them. They were HARD! Really hard! Probably not the best ones to do on my first attempt at Cake Pops. Half way through the Hello Kitty attempt, I ended up rolling all the heads up into balls and just making the simplest version of them. They were great in the end. The yumminess of these things gave me the desire to try them again. I wasn't up for all the work, but I just couldn't resist. They are that YUMMY! I figured, Jack O Lanterns would be another EASY version, basically just round balls. I went for it. They take hours by the way! I began dipping the balls into the chocolate and it was going great. But then, one by one all the heads began to crack. UGgggghh... I turned them around, put the faces on and took a picture just to show the attempt. It was too much work and I vow NEVER to make these again. Sorry friends and family. I know you all fell in love at first bite.<br />

They go from cubical to cubical and it's fabulous. Neils gets to show off his cute kids, the kids get MASS candy, it's warm inside the building and I don't have to worry about the actual Trick or Treating. The kids are completely okay after this version. Some call me a lame mom for not taking them out door to door, in the dark cold night and letting them really experience Trick or Treating. Oh well! It's just not my favorite holiday so I guess I short change my kids in because of that. I just don't get into it like some do. So after going up to Neils' work we came home and went outside. The weather was gorgeous. The kids wanted to stay in their costumes and I let them. I decided to go out with my camera and take pictures. I don't have pictures in the past of them in their costumes, I'm that lame when it comes to Halloween. They hammed it up for me and I love it. Jett insisted on showing me he had the "force." Brooke (Brookey-Bee as she likes to call herself) ran around saying "buzz... buzz.." and Sky wanted to look as if she were really flying. Here are the pictures...<br />

Sky's birthday was a hit. We invited some friends and their moms, to have a girls day out with us. We met at Chili's for lunch and then headed over to the dollar movie to see Ramona and Beezus.</div><div style="text-align: center;">The girls were cute, at lunch they sat at one end and us moms at the other. They acted so grown up, ordering their own food and chatting like little adults. It was fun to just sit and watch them interact with each other. After eating our yummy food and Sky getting her birthday dessert we headed over to the dollars to see the movie. It was a great show, mixed with laughs and even some teary parts. Here's the evidence of our great day.<br />

I make sure they have my full attention and a lot of fun! The last couple of Fridays have been spent at the Draper pool. Today, it was at home. I tried thinking of other places we could go, but I just didn't have it in me today. I was struggling for energy. So we stayed home, but that didn't mean it wasn't FABULOUS!!! It started with a bike ride around the block. The first time I've done that with all three kids riding. The last time we went around our own block I pushed a stroller, so that should tell you... it's been awhile. So that was new and FUN for them. Then after, the bikes needed a "car wash" which meant squirting water so Jett was game!!! The girls started out on board, but they quickly moved onto other things. My boy loves the hose and any chance he can turn it on or squirt a water gun, he's on it. So here he is going to town. Isn't he cute?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/July2010/12873802_diX6X#929335152_yuuSp"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/July2010/1/929335152_yuuSp-L-1.jpg" style="height: 532px; width: 800px;" /></a><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/July2010/12873802_diX6X#929335715_C4URH"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/July2010/3/929335715_C4URH-L-1.jpg" style="height: 532px; width: 800px;" /></a><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/July2010/12873802_diX6X#929336985_XjDHk"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/July2010/6/929336985_XjDHk-L-1.jpg" style="height: 532px; width: 800px;" /></a><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/July2010/12873802_diX6X#929336357_VkU6p"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/July2010/4/929336357_VkU6p-L-1.jpg" style="height: 532px; width: 800px;" /></a><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/July2010/12873802_diX6X#929338405_rLyea"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/July2010/12/929338405_rLyea-L-1.jpg" style="height: 532px; width: 800px;" /></a><a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/July2010/12873802_diX6X#929337440_2X4Kw"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/2010/July2010/8/929337440_2X4Kw-L-1.jpg" style="height: 532px; width: 800px;" /></a><br />

My only last decision is where to take the darn pictures. Am I sounding a little crazy? Okay, I know I am, but when I'm the photographer, I can take my time and plan it out perfectly, right? I remember stressing just about as much when I would take my kids into Kiddie Kandids (I cringe as I say their name). So, for now cause this one is for a project I'm doing and because I think this cute little face of hers, is her to a tee... I'll share one. P.S. Thanks again <a href="http://andreakphotos.blogspot.com/">Miss A</a> !!<br />

I've been trying to come up with something fun, cute, different and age appropriate for her. I haven't had any amazing ideas come my way. To be completely honest, I am so sad about her hair, I could cry. She was not blessed in that department, that's for sure. To those of you who think, that is terrible to say, trust me you'd understand if you saw her hair up close and you had friends like I do with three year olds that have INCREDIBLE hair (I won't mention names, you know who you are and I'm envious). In any case, I cringe when it comes time to do her hair. There just isn't ANYTHING I can do. So my mission has been to come up with a way to make her hair look as cute as she is. Awhile back, a client of mine had four girls and their hair was in perfect ringlets. WOW, I thought, she must have spent HOURS curling their hair for pictures. She mentioned to me that it was incredibly simple and there was a keyosk in the Fashion Place mall that sold these curling irons. So, remembering that, I decided to check it out. I came home with one, if that tells you anything. I thought she looked so cute with curls. Something I thought I'd NEVER seen in her hair last for more than two seconds. Today, I gave it a try... how would it look?</div><div style="text-align: center;"> I asked her so kindly, "Can I please take a picture of your curls?" I'm sure you could guess her response from this picture! And trust me this is all I got. What do you think?<a href="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/Brooke-Lauren-Jorgensen/Just-Brooke/10783287_M7nFi#895959659_un8mw"><img id="lightBoxImage" src="http://flashjorgensen.smugmug.com/Family/Brooke-Lauren-Jorgensen/Just-Brooke/1/895959659_un8mw-L-1.jpg" style="height: 532px; width: 800px;" /></a></div>Flash Jorgensenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00951149652579190246noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8173073776268787182.post-2361439051241920812010-05-24T10:19:00.007-06:002010-05-24T10:26:43.389-06:00I Heart Faces photo contest ~Yellow~<div style="text-align: center;">I'll get to the rest of the YELLOW birthday pictures later, but for now... I had to enter this into this weeks contest (<a href="http://www.iheartfaces.com/">www.iheartfaces.com</a>). I mean, really? Can I pass up an opportunity like this when Brooke's favorite, favorite color in the whole world is yellow?

I'm sure it was a result of the several sleepless nights this week. The phone rang, it was Suzanne. She wanted to tell me that if we were going to take pictures of our kids at this new location, we had to do it tonight. They were tearing the place down! NO!!! Ughh...!!! You wouldn't believe it, but I waited out the symptoms of the migraine and went to work, ironing the girls dresses and doing their hair. In the meantime Jett laid limp, sound asleep on the couch worked from a night of throwing up. I couldn't believe I was doing this. I didn't have an ounce of energy and really I was going to drag Jett off the couch, throw him in the car while I took pictures of the girls? YEP! Well, it turns out that Jett woke up after a good snooze wondering what was going on. I explained that I wanted to take pictures of the girls so he was going to have to ride along in the car and just watch a movie. "WHAT? I want you to take pictures of me too!" Okay, so after a second of looking at his sweet, extra pink cheeks and darling nap face, I said sure. I grabbed the closest outfit to us out of the pile on the couch, threw some goo in his hair and off we went. The weather was dark and dreary. There wasn't a whole lot of light. It looked as if it were going to rain on us any second. What was I thinking, seriously! Was I crazy? Probably, but like Suzanne said, this was our only chance! I got a few pictures, I even pushed for a few more at the end cause the kids were in such great moods. It ended with another migraine. I had to sit and wait in the car for several minutes until my sight came back so I could drive home. You'd never guess Jett had been sick all night and you'd never guess that Brooke was about to have a night of throwing up herself. I think come Saturday morning, I was on the brink of death. After being up all night Thursday, two migraines Friday afternoon and then being up all night Friday night with Brooke, someone could have shot me and I doubt I would have felt it. But who cares right? Cause I got darling pictures of my kids sweet faces!<br />

He was adorable and smiled the whole way through. I think it's safe to say he was on cloud nine. For one, dad surprised us and got off work to come to the game and two he loves his new mitt. He's been so anxious to actually use it in a game. Seriously, nothing but smiles. We cracked up at some of the other kids (I'm guessing first child children) who were so upset when they didn't get to the ball first or they didn't catch it like their dad told them to. Jett just played, smiling the entire time!!!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
