Update :)

Well after waiting for what seemed like forever...ok a year, NILS IS HOME!!!! He came back to Idaho on Thursday, October 6th! It is so good to have him here!! Jacee hasn't let him outta her sight yet, and Oskar loves having his daddy home! We had a great first weekend, and then it was time to get packing! We don't leave until November 5th, but the movers came today (Oct. 11) to have all our stuff boxed up and shipped out. It was so hard for me to decide what I could and couldn't live with or with out for the next 10 weeks!!! Hopefully we got everything! And I really hope they let me ship all my hair product...haha :) So for now we are just enjoying our last 25 days in America!

One Fine Day...

 We finally got a nice spring day! I was so happy to get out of the house and enjoy the sunshine. I met up with my sister Kim and her boys at the playground to let the kids run around for awhile. After an hour or so there we went back to my parents house. The kids had fun drawing with side walk chalk and then riding their bikes. I even let Oskar come out and sit in the sunshine!! He seemed to enjoy the fresh air. Katy, Kim and I also got our gloves and played some catch! I hope that we will have some more nice days soon!

Making the CUT...

Yep, Jacee did something that many kids her age do....she cut her own hair. I thought she was sleeping, so imagine my surprise when I open the door and find scissors and hair on her bed! She was so proud of her self, and I was too sad to be mad. After the initial shock I inspected her locks and realized it wasn't as bad as it could have been. She cut mainly in the front of her head, and a few pieces on top. The next day I took her to my friend Ali's house to get it fixed. The short pieces in front were easily converted into bangs, and layers were cut to hide the other short pieces. I am actually very happy with the new cut! I didn't want her to have bangs because I didn't want hair in her face, but these pretty much stay to the side. Hopefully Jacee has retired as a hair stylist and won't cut her hair again!!!!!

What a Blessing!

Sunday March 27, Oskar was given his baby blessing. My father, Bishop Kenny Hulse gave the blessing and it was so beautiful. I loved how Oskar looked in his little outfit. I was afraid it wouldn't fit him, but thankfully it did. I am so happy that we were able to have the blessing done, but I wish Nils could have been here for it.

Momma Jacee

Jacee has grown quite the imagination! I love watching her play with her dolls. It is cute to listen to her talk to them and pretend to be their mommy. I know she will grow up one day and be an amazing mother :)

Growing So Fast!

My big boy is changing and growing so much! He is packing on the pounds and is so cute! It's so crazy to think that he is now 6 weeks old. Time goes by too fast! It's been really hard taking care of 2 little ones on my own, but my family has been soooo helpful and I am very greatful. Jacee continues to adore Oskar and loves on him every chance she gets.
