Ok I warned everybody that I was extremely bad at keeping any kind of journal...this included! Anyway, a lot has been happening since I last wrote so I will try to fill everyone in the best I can.
Jett has been getting so big and starting to do lots of fun things. I'm not going to lie, I'm not a big fan of the infancy stage. Now that he's getting older and starting to interact more with me , it's way more fun!
Ok, my first picture is of Shelli
Schuett holding
Jett. Zachary and I went down to Dillon on November 12
th at 3:00pm and arrived there around 8:30pm. I wasn't sure how
Jett was going to travel, but he surprisingly did really good. I had to drive with the cab light on the whole way because he would start to scream when I turned it off. I think he thought that since it was dark (it went dark at like 5:00pm) it was bedtime. Anyway, Shelli let me go shoot a deer on their property since I hadn't shot anything in FOREVER! I can't even remember the last time I got something. I already turned the deer into sausage, jerky, steaks, roasts, and hamburger. It was a learning experience for me because normally when you get something you take it into get it processed. The picture is of
Jett trying to get a drink out of a cup that her boys let
Jett have.
These are Shelli's boys Austin (left) and
Kaz (right) holding
Jett. They didn't really seem to be that interested in
Jett, but I guess when I was out hunting, they played with him a lot, especially Austin. Right before we were about to leave, they asked Shelli if they could keep him or something like that! It was the cutest thing. I can't wait to go back to visit them.
Ok, this may seem like a random picture to everyone, but Shelli will appreciate it! Isn't it beautiful?!
Zachary was such a good husband. He stayed at the cabin to take care of
Jett so I could go out hunting with
Zanen and Uncle
Bubba. (Uncle
Bubba is one of Shelli's friends who helped me get my deer) I thought this was a pretty picture that Zachary took of the Valley we were hunting in. Talk about BIG COUNTRY!
All you animal lovers don't look! This is
Zanen after he cleaned out my deer. He's available to all you ladies! What a man! wink wink
Here we are with my deer. Zachary is on the left, me on the right and
Zanen in the middle. Oh, and my 4 x 5 Whitetail. I was so excited in this picture because this is the only thing I have ever shot with antlers on it...and it's HUGE! (for me anyway)
This picture is of
Jett eating his first 'real' food. That's if you could call rice cereal food. He loved it and couldn't get enough. I wanted to breastfeed until he was 6 months old, but two days after he turned 4 months I noticed him really start to eye my food. He would try to grab it and I figured, heck, why not! Isn't he cute?! He loves rice cereal, squash and sweet potatoes. He hates bananas, peaches, and prunes. That's all we've tried so far. Oh, and he hates Aunt
Melea's homemade yogurt!
Daddy and son watching basketball on the big screen in Dixon. I think
Jett was just so amazed at how big the people were that he couldn't keep his eyes off of it.
Grandma Crystal was tossing
Jett up in the air and he thought it was
sooooo funny! (We have to have a bib on him because he drools so much that if we didn't, he would drench his clothes in minutes)

Jett, and
Zanen after his basketball game in Pablo against
SKC.

Jett,
Zanen, Great Grandma Faye and Great Grandpa Gene.
Grandma Crystal bought him a high chair and he loved it.
We went Trunk-or-Treating at the
Church and Grandma Crystal and Grandpa Terry came up to celebrate with us. I poured rain the whole night! It was horribly wet and cold.
Jett was a bat! And the cutest bat I've ever seen.
My dad took my brother, Brian, hunting over east of the mountain and came back with this!!! If this isn't redneck I don't know what is! (At least they got something!)
This was Zachary's first
Taekwondo tournament. He won!
Our friends, the Decker's, had a baby boy around the same time we did. Chris and his son Cooper are on the left with Zachary and
Jett on the right.
Jett looked so cute sleeping, I just had to take his picture. We have
Church from 1:00pm to 4:00pm and that's prime-time
nap time for
Jett. He is so exhausted every time we get home.
I started
Taekwondo with Zachary, that's why I'm so sweaty and yucky looking.
Jett was 3 months old in this picture.
Great Grandma Mary got him this toy and he loves it! This is when he first started to smile.
