Child sexual abuse needs to stop....

If you haven't already done this I think you should take a few minutes to check your area and become aware of what registered offenders may be living or working near you. I have used this link http://www.familywatchdog.us/Default.asp for several years and it is always updated. I also think it's important to be extremely selective of who you have around your children and to make sure you child knows from a VERY young age that they do NOT have to submit to every adult just because they are an adult. I'm sorry to get so serious but I am sick to death of hearing about children being abused! If anyone, family or not, EVER messed with my children or any of my family members they would firstly, get their hiney BEAT and secondly, they would never see me or my children again. I would prosecute them to the fullest! I know a few people who have been sexually abused as children and none of them pressed charges! This is NOT the way to handle an already horrible situation. If you don't stand up to these predators, they will go on to abuse others! K, I'm done ranting. Just PLEASE, please, please do all you can to protect children. No one, especially children, should go through that.

Rock of Love 3....Birthday fun....more dreading.

So my friend thought it would be funny to apply online for Rock of Love 3 with Bret Michaels because they were holding auditions in SLC this week so she applied online on Thursday. She called me Friday afternoon to tell me that she had an interview with Vh1 on Saturday at 2pm about being on ROL3! AFTER we almost died laughing, I offered to do her hair and makeup...here she is with our friend she took for "moral support"...

...it's pretty safe to say she's not the kind of girl they want (not slutty, a lush, or a stripper) but hey, maybe she'll be on the casting special!!! ;)

Then later that day we took Jaakson and Shae swimming cuz it was Jaakson's birthday! We had a BBQ later at Klint's mom's and had cake and presents! He was absolutely spoiled by everyone! We try so hard not to spoil him but honestly, EVERYONE else does so it's pretty impossible!!! Look at the intense concentration:
I can't believe I have a 3-year old!

Every night we try to tighten up Klint's locks so they'll be encouraged to lock faster...here we are after watching "1000 B.C." and dreading for over an hour....

Klint is really going to learn patience after having dreadlocks...IF he makes it to the maturation stage, that is! ;)

P.S. For those of you that have been with me long enough and remember my Turbo Jam blog a few months ago, I'll be posting before and after pix the end of this week!!! :/ My love/hate relationship with soda has been LOVE lately so naturally those last 5 stubborn pounds aren't budging! Alas, I can't keep putting off posting my results like I promised, stay tuned! :)

My kids are so cute....

My widdle cutie pie!

The only way to get him to take a picture was to let him do it with the "treasure chests!"

Dreadies!

Klint's latest experiment!


It's so hard to get a picture of KLint not pulling a face....it's like having an obnoxious 5 year old for a husband sometimes.... ;P Love you, Klint!

Reality TV favorite updates...

I love Deanna & Jesse! I hope they make it! They both seem like really genuine people who have truly been themselves the whole time. I have to say, that's what I've always loved about Klint is that he has always been himself and never tried to be what he thought I wanted. Love ya, Klinty-poo! XOXO

LOVED this dance! I love Indian dancing! So loved it. If you've never seen Bride and Prejudice, I'd recommend it. It's an Indian version of Pride and Prejudice, really cute, too!

PhotographyPhun!

My beautiful niece was visiting a couple weeks ago so we took some pics and she let me use my airbrush makeup system on her! Not that she needs any, right? If I had that complexion I wouldn't even bother with ANY makeup.

Heart and Journey all in one night!

We got to see both these bands last night at the Usana Ampitheatre! AMAZING! Arnel Pineda is the new singer and I really think he'll breathe new life into Journey.

I actually LOVE the new single! It was so romantic to sit there with Klint on the lawn, under the stars.

I was more excited to see Heart (she can still blow!)

... but Klint and I both had to agree that Journey definetely were rightfully the headlining band. Good ole' Journey. <3

Cool Underwear 2, Diapers 1...

That's right, folks! For 2 days straight, Jaakson and the white, porcelain throne have been completely exclusive! He freaked out last night when we put nite diapers on cuz he wanted to keep wearing his cool dinosaur underwear! Thanks to a tip from my sister, Joanne and Kim's sister, Jenny to trade a little Hot Wheels car for a little poo-poo in the potty. ;) Thanks guys! Worked like a charm! He's even started forgetting to collect treats, too. Check out the cool whitey-tighties...

Then there's my daughter, who got her first tooth last week followed closely by her secondsecond this week! It's next to impossible to get a pic of her where she's not moving or sticking her tongue out so here's the best pic showing some pearlies!


Oh AND Shae is also getting up on her knees now and can get to a sitting postion from her tummy or back! I can't believe she's almost 7 months already!

Long timey, no writey....

We were moving all last week into our new apartment and Qwest is stupid so we JUST got back online yesterday.
