well i am still having prob;ems getting my photos into i photo so i promise they will come soon. but yesterday we had jackson's birthday party. he was very cute! unfortunately he got crazy overwhelmed like he did last year and he didn't even want to finish opening presents. so lily and i open the last couple. he was really happy about his presents. he will never show as much enthusiasum as lily for presents and parties, he really doesn't care about them as much as she does. it seems like he doesn't like being the center of attention when opening gifts. it's like he doesn't know quite what to do with himself.

so my mom and mike are in town and tonight they decided to take steven't parents and us out to dinner. we wanted to go to the spaghetti factory but there was an hour and a half wait so we went to red robin instead. well right when we got our food, jack looked at his chicken and started crying. i thought great, he really doesn't want chicken! then the next thing i know, he makes a weird sound and in a split second i realize what is happening. i push his head slightly away from my body and he throws up everywhere. he got my jacket and purse as well as my whole left arm and somehow all over my bottom and thighs. if i hadn't have moved his head, i would have been completely covered. i couldn't even start my food. they brought us stuff to clean off but that was the end of dinner for me. i waited for everyone to finish then boxed my food up and came home to take a shower. i can appreciate that when he doesn't feel good he wants me but this is the third time he has done this and the second time in public. i hate throw up!!!!!!!!

lastly, steven and i saw the movie "across the universe" last night. i think that most of you who read this, especially kimmie braithwaite, would enjoy it. it is a musical based on only beatles songs. there are a few parts that were completely strange and could be taken out but for the most part it was really cool. kindof moulin rougeish.

i am grateful for good times and bad times. i would much rather have all good times but i know that with the bad, heavenly father is mostly trying to teach me patience. i guess i really have a lot to learn. i am grateful for my childrens birthdays and can not even believe how old they are getting. it is amazing how fast life is going.

Happy Birthday Jackson!!!!!
Must be a Boy thing. Luke gets overwhelmed by a lot of people and too much going on. He has yet to finish opening presents on his Birthday's.
And then it seems like Ella is the total opposite. She adores being the center of attention and thrives on lots of energy and people.
Isn't it so fun to see hoe different our kids are?
And I am so sorry that Jackson threw-up all over you. I could not have eaten dinner either. And I really hope he is feeling better, poor thing.
I can't wait to see that movie. It's one that we wanted to see the second it came out but we never go out on date's. so now here we are, weeks later and still having not seen it.

I really want to see that movie. Seth...not so much. I can't believe Jack threw up on you at Red Robin. I hardly like that place to begin with, I bet it's ruined for you. Every time we drive to and from Big Bear (which you know how often that is) i'm so tense because I hate dealing with barf. Just remember not to give Jack apple jacks :) jill and i leave long comments :0
