Tampa, Florida

Jeremy got stationed in Tampa, Florida. He is working for Gulfstream International Airline. He flys between Florida and the Bahamas. From Pensacola, Orlando, Tampa, Miami and more. They operate under Continential. (www.gulfstreamair.com) So I am looking for a job in Tampa. I am hoping that I can transfer with Bank of America, but miss Jeremy so much I will take any job I can get. As soon as I get a job we will be moving. So we are trying to shortsale our home. Hopefully all works out.

Our Trip to Florida

We missed Daddy and was so glad to see him.

JD loves all the fun animals. He saw lots of fish, birds, iguanas and lots of other things.

This cute girl kept chasing JD around at the play place at one of the malls there. She kept saying baby and holding his hand and hugging him.

JD was not a fan of the ocean. When he saw it he said, "BATH!" But he thought the water was scary and cold. So we didn't stay long and of course he got a bath after that.

Happy Halloween!!!

Daddy didn't get to come visit for Halloween like he wanted to. So here are some pictures.
JD was a lawn gnome, or a travelocity roaming gnome, or an angry gnome or a grumpy gnome take your pick. He certainly fit the description of one. I sewed the blue micro fleece tunic and made the felt hat. JD was so adorable. Here he is being a helper gnome and sorting through all of Grandpa Cahoon's many tools with Uncle Ridge.

He kept the hat on for a really long time.

When JD would get candy in his bag he would pull some out and start eating. He also loved the Chili that was served at the ward trunk or treat.

Trip to San Diego

The first week of August I had vacation and it just so happened that Jeremy had a week of school off of school. So we went to Arizona and California. My friend got married in Coronado on the North Beach. So JD had fun playing in the sand before the ceremony.

When we were waiting for a table for dinner this couple had a little dog outside and JD loved playing with it. He giggled and giggled when it jumped up on him. You can see he closed his eyes too!

JD is a good road tripper!

Sarah came with me and was a big help with JD.

JD just wants to run everywhere! He is now starting to climb on things too!

After the Party

After people left then he decided to try out his new toys.

First Birthday

JD had his first birthday party on Monday night. We had family over and it was very fun and crazy. JD got lots of new toys!!! AFter everyone left he really enjoyed running around all of his new toys.

JD got a new Barney video which he is really happy about but Daddy was not.

Walking and Talking

JD is walking all over the place. This video is a couple weeks old and now he is getting into everything. I now realize how tall he is and how long his arms are. I have to re-baby proof the house. He is also starting to throwing temper tantrums. He throws his head back and kicks his feet. I am sure he hurts head when he hits it on the tile but he does it to himself.

Jeremy is now flying all over the country to build up his hours. He is in Sacramento right now and possibly Dallas and Florida later this week. For friends and family who live in other states, you may get a call that he is in town for the night and wants to say hi.

I just got transferred for work. I work down the street from my old banking center. It is a little farther away but I enjoy the challenge of something different. I was at Horizon/95 for 5 1/2 years.

There is a good possiblity that Jeremy's flight training will move us to Florida. If we do move then anyone is welcome to visit!

Memorial Day

For Memorial day this year my whole family went to Utah. My grandpa used to always go and put flowers on our ancestor's graves. This year was the first time that we got to put flowers on his grave. It was a nice trip.

Pilot Jeremy

So here is Jeremy after he got his single engine instrument rating.

For the last week he has been in Phoenix, Arizona working on his commericial pilot training. He is attending ATP or Airline Transport Professionals trying to get all his pilot stuff done. It is a 90 day program and we already miss him. Jeremy's parents live on the other side of Phoenix about an hour away.

Poopy Croupy

This little guy is having a rough day! Not only does he have a bad diaper rash but he also has croup. He is coughing and has a fever!!! He is really getting around though. He loves to look out the french doors and see the dogs. He is an animal lover like his father. My sister Teah posted a cute video on her blog of JD and Drew, his cousin (her son).

Happy Easter!

Here are the cousins in their Easter outfits that grandma bought them. They look so cute.

JD had a monkey egg that he sat on the grass and licked and played with for hours.

He loves cheese poofs! What a treat.

First Easter basket!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter! Jeremy is sick so he slept all day. JD is getting over his cold/cough. He still has a runny nose but enjoyed chocolate M&Ms and his monkey Easter egg.

Learning to Crawl

His daddy just can't wait to have him crawl which is funny seeing as how his daddy is the one at home with him durning the day since he ws laid off about 2 weeks ago. I'm sure once he starts crawling his daddy will regret having helped him learn to crawl.

Little Pooper

The adorable little fat boy now has teeth! He is so cute and is wiggling so much now. His favorite thing to do is to rock. He rocks while you hold him and now when he gets up on all fours. Soon the little pooper will be crawling.

First Teeth

This kid is hard to make him hold still and also not get his tongue in the way. You can see his two bottom teeth barely poking through. He has been a nightmare recently (I think due to teething) we live off of tylenol and those teething tablets (Thanks for sharing Teah they really work, must be the coffee in them...).

Puppies!!!

Bridget had 5 puppies this early morning. 4 boys and 1 girl, all yellow. This will probably be Bridget's last litter since she has had 4 other litters, with 25 puppies 10 being females.

So Tired!

JD was playing on his exersaucer which he loves to wiggle in when he fell asleep.

Day at the Park

I started working on Monday back at Bank of America on Horizon/95. I technically had a couple more weeks of my leave of absence but since they needed me and the economy is scary, I decided having a job is better than not having a job. I do hope to transfer closer to home. My Sister-in-law Marian is watching JD while I work. Ellie (her 1 year old baby) and JD get along great.

Today Jeremy's parents were in town so we went to the park. JD looks just like his dad with his cool sunglasses.

Big Boy!

JD rolls over very well. He likes to be on his tummy! This is how he sleeps sometimes! I put him on his back and he likes to sleep on his side sucking his thumb with all his fingers out.

He holds his head up really well and loves to see what is going on.

This is his new ball. He loves to look at me through the ball. I think it is fun, except when he is nursing and it is in the way.
