Silly Bears

Jasper and I got a little silly during our BYU visit. He was in such a fun mood. Thanks to Erica for snapping these shots.

Did I mention that he likes to be flipped upside down???

BYU Visit

Jasper and I had a super fun visit at BYU. We saw Erica, Lindsay, Joanne, Valerie, Denan, Chris, Leanne, Justin, Scott Shelly. I got to know all of these wonderful people while I was working for them as a consultant last year it it was a real treat to see them again and introduce them to Jasper.

Erica & Lindsay took Jasper and I to lunch at Costa Vida. If I told you how many times I ate at Costa Vida take out while I was on assignment in Provo you wouldn't believe me. It seemed like it would have been a sin not to eat there...for old times sake. It was just as delicious as I remembered! Thanks for lunch ladies!

Then we went and hung out on the lawn outside the Harman Building. Jasper, being the true Vegas baby that he is, kept moving toward the cement...even though we were on a HUGE field of beautiful green grass.

As you can tell from the photos, Jasper was in his --please throw me upside down mode -- and loved every single toss and tumble.

At one point I was playing Jasper and crawling after him when someone attending a conference walked over to me and said hello. He told the people he was sitting with, "Hey, I know that girl crawling around. She's in my Ward in Henderson." Yes, that's me. The crazy mom crawling around with her baby.

Valerie, who also works for EFY, is also pregnant. Yes, lots of EFY babies coming. She is one of the most radiant pregnant women that I've ever seen. Jasper was thrilled with his EFY wristband that she gave him. I am glad that he can now get into EFY dances. :>

Then upstairs to my old office to see Joanne. I miss seeing her every morning. I shared an office with Joanne, and she was nothing but nice to me from day one. She suffered with me on all of the days that I was so sick and so tired during my pregnancy. Thanks Joanne!

We got see Camille, who used to be a student employee when I worked in the BYU Employment offiice from 1998-2001. I am so glad we have kept in touch. Camille is now publishing books, and I am so excited for her. I can't wait to use her books with Jasper.

While we were in the lobby Jasper got out all of the LSAT flyers. I thought Mike would appreciate that Jasper was in a legal state of mind during our BYU visit.

Thanks for a great visit.

Walk Like An ????

Jasper can take a few steps on his own, but he seems to prefer the "bum in the air" walk.

Everyone gets a good laugh out of his walk/crawl style. Silly boy!

11 Months Old

We are on location in Lehi at Aunt Shauna's house for this monthly photo shoot.

Aunt Shauna is thrilled to be with us as Jasper is learning how to walk. He took a few wobbly steps at home last month. but he is toddling down the hall these days (while grabbing the wall when he needs to).

Her grandson McKay commented -- Everyone learns how to walk at Grandma Shauna's house.
