Just wanted to let everyone know that I have started selling Scentsy! I am super excited to get started and have a catalog party going on right now. It will close on September 8th so be sure to let me know if you want to place an order. I also have all the testers so if you want to smell anything you can. Also if anyone wants to book an in home party or do a catalog party that would be fun too! Having a party of your own is a great way to get lots of free and 1/2 price items! E-mail me with any questions, to place an order, or to book a party! My e-mail is alcingolani@yahoo.com.

A Fun Summer!

We had such a fun summer! From laying around on the couch watching cartoons, to going to the Fiesta Day's Rodeo and playing on the big tractors there, going to the Fiesta Day's parade, playing in the pool, eating lots of popsicles, and playing t-ball in the backyard! Labor Day weekend is this weekend and that can only mean one thing, Onion Days! Yep, Payson's town celebration! We look forward to this every year. The parade, fireworks, the carnival all that fun stuff! More pics to follow. Hope everyone else had a fun summer too!

What Happens When Mom Gets Bored?

This is what happens when mom gets bored on a Sunday afternoon! Jaxon and I were sitting outside yesterday afternoon eating a popsicle. I reached over to touch his head, and it was as hot as can be. So I told Justin to go get me his clippers, and that I was going to to buzz Jaxon's hair. I don't think he believed me, but I really did. Jaxon was about due for a hair cut anyway, and with the hot weather still around, I thought "why not?" Now Justin calls him our little bald baby. (We have never seen Jaxon with this little of hair cause when he was born he had a full head, and always has.) The funny thing now is that Jaxon keeps rubbing his head with this weird look on his face like he doesn't know where it went.

What Do I Do With Him?

Okay, so I am really confused at some of Jaxon's behaviors lately. He doesn't want to eat much, and he has decided that afternoon naps are for the birds! I think he is not eating much because maybe it is too hot outside. I don't know?! He used to be such a good little eater, and would eat so much at one sitting, and now he just grazes most of the day. I know he is not going to let himself go hungry, but it makes a mom wonder. The deal with the naps is beyond me. He has never been a great napper, but still I think that every almost 2 year old needs some type of a nap or quiet time during the day. What he doesn't understand is that mom needs quiet time during the day too. I don't want to sound mean, but that is when I watch my shows on tv or mess around on the computer and just kind of check out for a while. So, I don't know what to do with him. I think I might need to change his schedule around a little and maybe find some new foods that he has never had before to change up his mealtimes. If anyone who reads this has any other ideas on what to do, I would really appreciate them! Thanks for reading my post while I vent my frustrations!

I could KILL them!!

This is the phrase that Justin and I have uttered more than once since we have lived out here in West Mountain. You see there is a big open field next door to us and the people that own it let their teenage boys ride their 4 wheelers in it. They have built jumps and they have all sorts of fun. So it sounds harmless right? WRONG!! It never fails that they don't ride until Jaxon is either asleep for his nap in the afternoon or down for bed at night. Now I know that they are just being kids and having fun during their summer, but it sucks for us cause Jaxon is such a light sleeper that it almost always wakes him up. Just like this afternoon. I put Jaxon down for a nap and what happened about 30 minutes in to naptime? That's right those d@!# kids on their 4 wheelers! So needless to say, Jaxon is wide awake and will not go back to sleep. Wish me luck on what is going to be a long and possibly chaotic night!!

Happy 24th of July!!

We had such a fun weekend! On Thursday we went to the Spanish Fork parade. Jaxon loved it and waved to all the queens and horses. He wasn't so sure about the fire trucks and ambulances with their loud sirens, but the rest of it he loved. Then later that night we went to the rodeo in Spanish Fork. Again Jaxon loved it. He thought the skydivers with the American flag were so cool, and he loved all the animals. It was so funny to watch him wave at the horses as they would come by with their banners. Justin and I were talking on the way home how when you see the American flag carried in on horseback, you can't help but get a lump in your throat. It is so amazing to see! Then on Friday, Justin had to work so Jaxon and I went to the new pool that opened here in Payson. It was a lot of fun and Jaxon really liked playing in the water and sliding down the slides. In fact it was so much fun that we went again on Saturday and Justin went with us. We all three had so much fun, and I think Justin and I felt like kids again! Sunday we loafed around and went to visit Grandma and Grandpa. All in all it was a fun weekend!
