My Little Helper

Jesusito has really liked helping around where he can, and getting a high-five or a hug for all that he does. Apparently, one of the times that I let him throw his dirty diaper away, it went into the laundry instead of the garbage. Yup, as you can guess, I didn't realize it until I started to put the wet clothes into the dryer. Needless to say, those clothes got washed all over again...in bleach.:) No, just kidding, but can you imagine what it would have been like if it had been a poopy diaper? BLAH!

We've Got a Little Flirt on our Hands...

Need I say more...?














BTW: This is Jesus' business partner Javier and his girlfriend Paula. Jasmine was attacking Paula's hair everytime she got close to Jasmine.

Utah State Fair

We had our annual trip to the State Fair. I swear, that's where Jesus and I gain all of our weight for the year. No matter what you get...it's fattening. I really loved the deep fried snickers, though. There was no way I was passing that up!















We had little Jesus ride the ponies, and he got really scared the first round and almost fell off, he was having such a heart-attack. This picture is of me trying to take a pic of him on the horse, without having him fall off, or have a heart attack.















Jesus' favorite part of seeing the rabbits was to see how many food containers he could tip over. So much like his daddy...:)

Jimmy's B-day

So I'm really bad...it was my bro-in-law's b-day, and I have no pictures of him, or the party...just my kids. I want to tell Jimmy, though, Happy Birthday! We had a great time!














So, these are pictures of my kids at the party. It was an awesome party that Jan had planned outside her in-laws house. They played Transformers on the side of the house! My kids had a great time with all of the toys...of course...and didn't watch the movie. Jesus loved the toys and the popcorn, and Jasmine loved the swing and the people. Overall, a fun night!

Something Good Came From Something Not So Good...

So today was a rough day. I was on my way out with the kids, and little Jesus locked the doors without my knowledge. So when I closed his car door, after getting him locked up, I couldn't open my door. I seriously didn't think that things like that would get me so emotional, but after waiting for the ambulance/cops to come, seeing little Jesus and Jasmine inside the car sweating their precious little heads off, I was getting so impatient and worried. My cute little neighbor was there by my side...you can see her in the reflection in the picture...she was trying to console me. It took the emergency personnel a good 6-7 minutes to get them out. It was rough. I was shaking. Little Jesus loved it all, though! I was constantly checking up on him during the ordeal and he was pointing to the firemen and grinning, then he'd point to their trucks and grin. So, of course, right when they got him out, instead of him running to me and hugging me...like I wanted:)...he ran right to the trucks. What a doll. Yes, they were both fine. Sweaty and smiley and fine. (BTW: the good that came from all of this is this adorable pic!)

Do You Ever...

Do you ever wake up in the middle of the night with the most random thought in the world? Well, that happened to me last night. At about three in the morning, I started thinking that Jasmine isn't 7 months old like I thought she was, she's only 6! Bother! So then I started counting the months and was positive that I was missing a month because I was counting at three in the morning. Lo and behold, at 8 this morning, I found out I hadn't skipped a month: I just don't know how to keep track of how old my kids are.:)

Jonathans Birthday

The other day it was Jona's b-day, so we had a little party at our house. These pictures show what happens anytime that Jesusito is close to water...it doesn't matter if it's a pool that we're draining, water in the gutter, whatever...he is in it.

My Funny Chubby Hubby

Jesus is such a nut! Yesterday I was getting ready for the day, and I couldn't decide on a shirt to wear. I asked Jesus if a particular shirt...which is a stretchy shirt, by the way...was too tight. He just looked at me, and I could see his little mind working, but after waiting for a response that didn't come, I said "forget it" and kept on getting ready. After curling my hair, doing my makeup, brushing my teeth, Jesus says "Jodi, that shirt looks like Michael Phelps swimming suit" and started laughing his head off. Mind you, this was a good ten minutes after I had asked him the question. "That was pretty funny,though, huh?" was what he said after I told him a response ten minutes later isn't funny. What a Mexican nerd.:)

She's just too darn cute!

Miss Jasmine still doesn't do all of the crazy things little Jesus does, hence the lack of pictures and stories of her, but I just have to share how adorable she is. Gosh! I'm so lucky! I just love how she sticks her tongue out! The cutie!

Consequences of ice cream...

Hablamos espanol in the house so that little Jesus and Jasmine will learn it. It's been funny, though, to see which English words he picks up on. Ice cream is one of his favorites. This is what happens when one decides to be brave and give little Jesus ice cream.

I have no idea where Jesus got the idea to use the ice cream as a beard, but that's one of the lovely things he did.:) Check out his pants...they were clean two seconds before the shot. The video is long, but funny.

So since he was so dirty, I decided to let him run in the sprinklers...this is what happened.

Another Funny Jesusito Story

Today Jesus decided to take us out to eat. When he takes us out to eat, as you can imagine, we go eat Mexican food...today was no different. We went to this hole in the wall that Jesus said was really, really good. Last time he said that, there was a cockroach on the food...I wasn't too excited. I was surprised, though, and loved the food. Jesusito loved the food, as well, which is always nice since he usually just likes milk and suckers.

Usually, in these types of restaurants, they have posters everywhere marketing calling cards, announcing concerts, etc. We let little Jesus run around the restaurant, because it wasn't very big, and there weren't many customers. He kept on running to the front door, giggle and come back. Pretty soon he was dragging me with him to show me something on the front door. Mind you, the only customers in the WHOLE restaurant were right in the direct path of the front door and whatever Jesusito was giggling about. So he takes me to the front door, and there taped to the door was a poster marketing calling cards. This poster was REALLY classy! He pointed to the thing that was making him giggle, which was a voluptuous butt of a lady in a bikini...oh the embarrassment!

Crazy Adventures in Walmart

Today I had the privilege of going to Walmart with little Jesus and Jasmine. Every time we go, it is an adventure. It's just hard to shop with a two year old, I've decided. He wants to play with everything and talk to everyone. A 10 minute Walmart run usually takes an hour, thanks to Mr. Social.:)

I usually will bribe Jesusito to be still with a sucker from the bank. Probably not the best habit to get him into, but I can justify everything I do.:) Today I gave him the sucker, and after a couple of minutes, he gave it back like he was done with it. History has shown that he's not done with it until it is fully digested in his tummy, or until it has fallen on the yucky Walmart floors. So, I held on to it. As we continued shopping, I noticed that Jesusito was really quiet, which is never a good sign, even in Walmart. I looked in the shopping cart and there he was...drinking my makeup foundation! AAAGH!

Yes, yes, he was fine, but had a foundation mustache for the rest of the trip.
