Train them up young...skiing!


I believe in the Proverbs 22:6 scripture that states, "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it". In this case, it's skiing. We got Sawyer "on" skis when he was just a month old and have taken every opportunity to get him up in the mountains. On the 10th we went up to Snowbird to watch his aunt Tawnya learn about the thrill of skiing on a sit ski. It was Sawyer's first experience with good, wholesome, mountain snow; he loved it of course! Then on the 17th (6 weeks after the c-section) having been cleared to go skiing...up to the mountains I went. I skied hard all morning then Rob and my mom brought Sawyer up so Rob could ski the afternoon and so I could feed Sawyer. He once again enjoyed being in the mountains, hopefully as much as we did, do, and always have! Oh, it felt AWESOME to be back on the mountain! I didn't want to leave. Here's to at least 20 days on the mountain next season!!

Month old on Easter!


I can't believe my baby is already a month old! It seems like so much has happened in such a short time and like Sawyer has always been in our lives. We LOVE our little Sawyer!
We spent Easter at my brother's house with his family. We had a great dinner and had a little Easter egg hunt for the kids. Thanks Scott and family!

Sawyer and his sweet cousin, Annie (the one and only girl cousin (out of 10) on the Jeppson side)

Gettin' old


Happy birthday to me! My little one gave me the first birthday present early in the morning...after cleaning his bum for a diaper change he promptly mustard squirted all over the changing table before I could get his new diaper on...then he puked all over the bed while I was cleaning up the previous mess. Life definitely changes once you're a mother. :)
I just wanted to write a quick note to thank friends and family for the birthday wishes and especially to my husband and son for making my first birthday as a mother an enjoyable, and memorable, one.
