Well I've been tagged by Kallie to leave 7 facts about myself ... hmmm.



1. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Technical Sales from Weber State University. I don't use either of my degrees (I also got an associates in Interior Design).
2. I've never lived outside of Utah. Unless you count the summer that I travelled from Minnesota to New York selling magazines door to door; living outside of Utah.
3. I had my appendix taken out in Goshen, Indiana. (It's an amish community)
4. I've never broken a bone. (knock on wood).
5. Bob and I met at Pineview Reservoir.
6. I hate saying prayers in front of people. If I'm asked at church I always decline.
7. I hate watching most sports on TV but I LOVE going to anything sports related.

I tag.... Candice, Mandi, and Deanna (and anyone else that would like to join in)

5 Months

Today Zack is officially five months old! I can't believe that time is going by so fast! But I'll be honest, I love this age. He's interacting more and I'm finally "getting" him. I loved him as a baby but I'm loving this age. I actually can't wait until he's crawling and doing stuff on his own. And I know that everyone says I don't want them to grow up too fast, but I'm excited to play with him, and I know Bob is excited about teaching him sports!

This last month has been a lot of firsts.
- First Thanksgiving.
- First time having some Turkey... Thanks Mom... LOL.
- First time seeing Santa!
- Started eating Rice.
- Started on carrots (today).
- Getting really good at rolling over
- Sitting up on his own for quite a long time.
- Slept through the night the past 4 nights! Let's cross our fingers it sticks.
- Absolutely loves the jumper!
And know for some pictures:
First time seeing Santa. My mom invited us to her ward's Christmas Breakfast. He didn't seem to mind the old man with the long white beard. He did want to pull on that beard and to eat his fingers. But what doesn't Zack want to put in his mouth. LOL.

Next we have Zack exactly 5 months. He's not smiling because he was being cranky today, and I'm lucky to get this picture.


A picture of Zack helping us decorate our tree. Again with everything going into his mouth. I was trying to take the pictures fast. I didn't need our baby electrocuting himself on Christmas lights.


Here is a picture of Deanna feeding Zack his carrots. I was really surprised that he didn't make a face when he first tasted them. He actually didn't seem to mind them at all. He's so funny because I think he would rather eat then drink from a bottle. But he's got to stay on formula until he's a year old... sorry buddy. He's silly when he eats too. I guess since he's starting to eat solids and sitting on his own we'll need to get him a high chair.


And last but not least a comparison to see how much he's grown in just five months. I think it's funny to see how much his hair has grown. We will be getting him a haircut before his next picture, it's just getting too long!

Jumper Zack

About a week ago we borrowed a jumper from my good friend in the neighborhood. Bob's mom has been telling us for a while now how much Bob loved being in the jumper when he was a baby and since Zack loves to bounce we finally got him one to try. AND HE LOVES IT! He will sit in it for a quite a while (on baby terms). He's so good at jumping too.

So here is a little video of Zack in his Jumper. The lighting is pretty bad, because it was later in the evening and for some reason my camera needs TONS of light. So I set up a lamp on him.

NKOTB - go ahead be jealous!

On the 15th I went to the New Kids on the Block Concert. Yeah your jealous aren't you! I'll go ahead and say yes I WAS a fan! I'm not going to run out and buy any of their new stuff. But I have fond memories of the New Kids! I missed the first concert 15-18 years ago so I was so excited when Deanna called to see if I wanted free tickets. Yes my friends I said FREE! Oh yeah and we were on the floor. Granted we were about 8 rows from the back but we were on the FLOOR! It was so much fun. We danced, we sang and we had a blast! My sisters are totally fun to hang out with. My aunt also went. It was also her birthday so Happy Birthday to you, indeed! My cousin was there (she took the pictures below with my sisters' camera) but she didn't go with us. She also had WAY better seats then we did. But who cares ours were FREE!

The concert opened with Lady Gaga. She was pretty good. I would describe her as a mix between Madonna and Christina Agulera (sp?). I actually knew one of her songs.


The next opener was Natasha Bedingfield. She was good, but the set was pretty boring. I knew a few more of her songs. Especially since I love The Hills and the opening song is one of hers.


Then finally NKOTB!


Like I said these pictures were taken by my cousin because she was so much closer. I took some pictures but they were blurry and just not very good.


Recognize this move? They did a bunch of their old song and their old moves! Loved it!



In the middle of the set NKOTB preformed a few songs in the middle of the arena so we actually got pretty close! I always thought that Jordan was the cute one. But after seeing them, I'm leaning toward Donnie... yum.


And guess who we saw.... David Archuleta. I'm not a fan of his or American Idol but just the fact that we say someone "famous" was pretty cool!
The funniest part of the show was when Jordan did a Sole. (Donnie, Joey and Jordan all had soles). He stood at the top of the stairs with his shirt open and the "wind" was blowing. I couldn't help but laugh. And the girls went wild!


So that is my review-ish of NKOTB. It was a lot of fun and I'm so glad that I could go! Thank Deanna!!!
