The Talbot Family January 2008

The new additions all together. Left: Mel's- Jensen, Beth's- Indy, and Steph's-Alec

We went down to Arizona for Jay's brother's wedding just after Christmas. It was so nice to be in warm weather

My mom and I just hanging out with the sleepy babes

Jay and I enjoyed ourselved during the New Years Party

Lennix found his favorite toy

We had such a great New Years Eve party at my parents house. As you can see we brought in some professionals to serve us ice cream and entertain us in their stylish aprons and hats. Oh, Jasen and Mike, you are two peas in a pod!

Lauren took center stage as she chose some good tunes for us to listen while we played games

Robb and Steph and their darling Alec

This is Lennix's cousins Abree and Madi reading his favorite book to him. I thought it was such a sweet picutre

I have learned that you should never give your child the present that you know they would be most excited about first. After we gave him that toy to the left of Jay, he had no need to open up any other presents.

Is this the most staged "opening of the presents" you've ever seen. Hey, it's his first Christmas, we had to document everything.

Jensen doing what he knows best

We can't get enough of Lennix's cheeser

I forgot to post this last time I updated the blog. It is my favorite video of Lennix laughing. We are still trying to figure out what he found so funny!

At 8:15 this morning, Jay got a phone call from The Ohio State University Admissions office and all I heard him say was "Absolutely, Yes!" I ran into the hall way and he greeted me by saying, "We are going to Dental School!" I gave him a huge hug and just started screaming. I probably woke up all of our neighbors. I can't tell you how excited we are and not only that, Ohio was our first choice. We truly feel that it is the place that Heavenly Father wants us and we are going to have an awsome next 4 years!! GO BUCKEYES!

We would like to introduce the newest member of the Talbot Family . . .

First photo shoot

Doing what he does best

I called my parents to tell them that I was in the hospital with my epideral in. No kidding, they were packed and in the car driving to Cedar within 2 hours of my phone call. I love you guys!!

Lennix meeting Jensen

Going home in style

Jay is one proud Dad!

After his first bath

I could not beleive that I was already a 6 when I went to the hospital

the nurse told me that it was a good thing that I came when I did because if I

had waited any longer I would have had him on the pew at church.

This is my favorite picture!!

The first time I got to see Jensen

Our family of 4!!

I really could kiss his face off. He is just heavenly

Art, Shy and Mary came to visit at the hospital

I love living in Cedar! Every year we are able to go hike around the Cedar mountains and pick out our very own Christmas tree. Also, we couldn't have gone on a better day. We took our tree home that night, put up all of our decorations and the next afternoon Jensen was delivered. I think we might make hiking a tradition when I am just about ready to have a baby!!

He's such a character. I love his monkey face!!

My sister in law meg took this picture and I love it. There is nothing better than a babies dimply bum!! He's got a pretty good seat also.

Here's for those that wanted to see the official 9 month prego picture.

Can you believe I carried around that rocket for so long!?

Sometime in August, my friend Holly gave me this upright grand piano. If you can imagine, it used to be an ugly mustard color. After many hours of stripping, sanding. staining, cleaning, and so on, we now have our very own refinished piano. It actually is still in tune and for it being my first time refinishing a piano, I think it turned out quite nice!

In the middle of Nov. we went down to the Air Show in Vegas at Nellis Air Force Base with Jay's parents. We had so much fun and of course the Thunder birds were our favorite of the day. As you can tell Lennix got a little scared of how loud the jets were when they randomly flew past us but other than that he was mesmerized by everything else. It was so much fun to take him

Yes, we have bought a new (used) car. We thought that after breaking down in AZ in the middle of nowhere, it was time to find a good, dependable one. We were so blessed to find this car for such a good price and in such good shape. We feel like we are driving in luxury.

Right down the street from us is a big corral full of horses. Lennix loves to take a walk down there and he has to pet and feed every horse before we go home. Sometimes there is a sheep that will just follow us around while we are there. It's like a free petting zoo. Just one of the perks of living in a small town.

As everyone knows, we are huge Yankee's fans. My wonderful brother-in-law Troy went to his factory in Mexico and brought me back the best material so that I could make authentic looking Yankee uniforms (Troy, we knew you were a Yankee's fan at heart!). This is our very own model, Lennix, showing off the finished product. It was a proud moment for Jay when Lennix first put it on!!
