A week at the Johnson's

Aja is just showing off her rolly legs and baby gut.  Mine is getting bigger than hers now, but for a while she looked more pregnant than me.  Here are some of her new activities...putting on our sunglasses, playing with Johns cell phone, and wearing his shoes.

Aja had a sick week as you can tell by the snot running down her face.  I love how she is clinging to her medicine in this pic.  She loves to carry her medicine bottles around and she will not let you take them away.  I have an addict in the making.

Aja holds her binky to the side of her mouth and tries to talk.  It comes out all slobbery sounding, not that you can understand her to begin with.  I think it is time to retire the "ginky" as she calls it.

We went swimming and sidewalk chalking at our condos.  Aja loves to draw!

Aja loves this little bunny.  She drags it around everywhere with her, including outside.  And then she forces you to kiss it.  It is gross, but she is just to cute to resist!  I try to wash it as much as she will allow me to sneak it away.

Johnson got a bee sting on his forehead while biking!  The bee got stuck in his helmet while he was biking and attacked.  A couple days later his left eye swelled up and it has been like that for a couple of days.  That is the third bee sting our family has had since moving to San Diego.  There are too many bees here.  And I have been pooped on twice by a bird.  Maybe we are just unlucky people!

The Latest...

Holla out to all!  Well, here is the latest news for us.  We had our 18 week ultrasound and the baby is doing great.  Of course the baby curled up in a ball making it really hard for the technician to get the measurements they wanted.  Both my kids have done that.  I am hoping it is a sign that I am going to have another calm child.  Cross my fingers!  They also told us we are going to have another little GIRL!  Sweet.  That is actually what I was secretly hoping for this pregnancy.  So Aja will have a little play buddy.  And I don't have to buy anything!  Can't complain about that.

Here we are hanging at Oceanside!  It reminded Johns and I of the road trip we took here in college with our USU buds...we hooked it up here in San Diego.  This beach was fun.  There was a pier, a park, and awesome sand.  Perfect beach conditions.

Showing off the belly.  I am showing a lot faster on my second pregnancy, just like everyone told me.  For every centimeter my belly grows, I think my butt gains one right along with it. And I bet you all wanted to hear about it.  Aja is hanging out in the background.

Aja is starting to pick up some fun eating habits!!!  Like...dumping her bowl out after she is done, or throwing all her food off the tray. We are just lucky if the bowl doesn't end up on her head.  We are now having to bath after half her meals.  It is hard to let them start feeding themselves and having no control of where the food really ends up.  The spaghettio's pic is my fav!

Partey in Utah-as usual!!!

I went home to Utah this over labor day weekend.  I went home of course to visit family and friends but my primary reason was to go see Heathers new baby.  Well, she is not that new anymore...but she was new to me.  She is about 7 weeks right now.  And she was a cutie.  It was fun to see how Aja reacted with a baby, especially because we will have a new addition to our own family in the next 5 months.  I was surprised how much I had forgotten about having a newborn.  I am going to be a little rusty.  But seeing Heather was a good refresher course.

This is a pic of me and my Mom at Firehouse eating lunch, yummm.
Hez's baby, her name is Alison.  I am still surprised by this full head of dark hair.  And it sticks straight up in the back.  I loved it!
Aja being pleasant, she has definitely gotten more of an independent attitude.  But considering she was perfect before, I can't complain.  I had to get a picture of her telling me what's up!
My dad with Alison, he is so cute with newborns.  They always love him.
We went up to Camp Steiner, a boys camp in the Uintas.   I let my child run around in a diaper in the lake.  Ya, white trash, but she was loving it.  She was running into the water as fast as she could, she tripped in face first a couple of times.  Thankfully, there has been no signs of Giardia...yet!  I can't believe the kids would play in it.  It was such cold water.  Steiner is the boys camp with the highest elevation, so it is pretty cold.  This was the only time of the day I was not wearing a hoodie!


That poor little Alison got so many kisses and hugs from Aja!  I was excited Aja was so soft and sweet with her.  I can only hope that is still the case in 5 months.
I went to see the 2nd parents!  They left on a cruise a couple days after I saw them.  Now that is the vacationing I should be doing!  Maybe next year when I am not pregnant.  I hope you had fun Kevin and Wendy.  


Desiree had a family shower at her house.  This is my fav cousin, we were roomies up at USU when I met Johnson.  She is due the end of September.  3 weeks to be exact.  She looks adorable, her belly looks like she strapped a basketball on under her shirt.  

The 2 pregos!  

Chillin with Josh, Sarah and the kids!

My brother Josh and his wife Sarah came into California for vacation with Sarah's family and they came to spend a day with us.  We went to the San Diego Zoo.  This pic is of Johnson with the Elliot family and Josh.

Here is Aja's favorite place to be...she pulls your hair and kicks you in the face.  It is really fun!  She was using Johnson hair to hold herself in place.  He has chopped it all off now. 

We went to the San Diego Airport tower to see johnson's place of work.  He looks like he fits in well...especially with that intelligent look on his face.  
You can't come to California without a trip to In and Out!
