Moved to California

So we moved to California back in August and have done a lot of fun things. Most my pictures are in my cell phone and I don't know why I can't get them on the computer so the only pictures I can post are the ones from my camera. The day before Thanksgiving we went on a little drive on the coast and stopped at a few beaches. It took Dax a minute to figure out that he could play with the sand but once he started he didn't want to stop.
Love my little guy!

Rusty and Dax

Alcatraz in the back ground when we were in San Francisco- on one of our other trips to San Francisco we saw the Blue Angles air show and that was pretty cool.

Dax on Halloween was my little prisoner. I felt bad that Rusty missed out on Dax's first Halloween, he ended up having to go to New York and work when that last big storm went through and took them out of power. But I dressed Dax up anyway for pictures.

Sacramento Zoo - this was back in August

It's been awhile

This is from back in June at the Zimmerman faimly 3rd annual 4-wheeler trip at Strawberry Reservoir.

I will post more in a few days

Grand Teton Nationl Park and Dax

Last weekend we spent the day at the Grand Tetons. This is us at String Lake

@ the Mountain Man Museum in Pinedale, WY

Yes I am now that mom that takes a million pictures of my cute little guy even when he is doing nothing. You're just lucky you're only getting 3 of him and not the hundred that I wanted to post.

First time eating with a spoon....he's not a fan

His new toy that he loves

This was just a great sunset we saw when we were in Big Piney, WY

Grand Canyon and Camping at the Dunes

This was Rusty and Dax's first time to the Grand Canyon. It was our last day in Arizona and the weather was so cold, windy and snowy at the Grand Canyon but we really wanted to go.
love this place

Just before this picture was taken it was snowing so hard, we kind of felt like bad parents for taking him out but he was way covered and we were only out of the truck for a few minutes.

This was Dax's first camping trip, we went to the Dunes over Easter. I am kind of mad cause I really didn't get very many pictures this trip.

Parents came to visit

My parents came to visit a couple weekends ago and we had a great time with them. Here are a few things we did while they were down. Dax all bundled up ready for his first 5 mile hike

We had a great hike but I wish we would have taken some better pictures overlooking Lake Powell

We were able to go to the shooting range twice while they were down here. It was a bit windy so I had to stayed in the car with the baby.

The best part was the tour through South Antelope Canyon. Our tour guide, Josh, was great!!! I have so many pictures but I didn't think you would want to see all of them. Oh one other thing we did was take the tour through the Glen Canyon Dam. Dax was such a little trouper that weekend and just let us pack him everywhere we went with no fuss.

It's about time

It's about time I Blog. My friend Shalice and her husband Dusty came to visit us in Page, AZ. We had a lot of fun, it's not very often we get friends or family visiting us. Their drive should have been 4 hours but because of some bad weather and them sliding off the road it took them a bit longer.
One thing I am loving about Page is the hiking. Dax and I go almost everyday. They have a trail down here that is called Rimview Trail that over looks part of lake Powell.

Rusty and Dax napping

I had to go home for some appointments a couple weeks ago. It was fun TRYING to get a picture of Dax, Rekker and Drake,

Rusty and his baby boy

Changing diapers

Just home from work

First Bath

Well it did take us about 4 or 5 days after Dax was born but we got him named.

It was between Dax and and Crew.

Dax went in for his 2 week check up and everything is looking great. They would like to see him put on a little more weight but other then he is looking good.

We left Utah the Monday after Dax was born and headed to Arizona for Rusty's job and we are loving it down here.

Our baby boy!!!

Born January 26th

Due date was the 19th

7 lb 6 oz

20 inches long

Lots of hair

We still don't have a name but are hoping maybe by tonight he will get one.

Due Date

Well today is my due date and well the day has came........and is now soon gone and still no baby.



We watched Drake on Friday night and we put on the movie "Over the Hedge" and this is where Drake insisted on sitting the first half of the movie. I had to get up a few times while we watched the move and everytime I would move him off of me and everytime I set back down he would sit back on me. You can't really tell but there is a very pregnant belly behind him and he would keep trying to move back but the belly would get in his way. During the 2nd half of the movie Rusty was on the bed and I was next to him and 3 different times Drake would crawl over me so he could be in the middle of both of us. He was so fun to watch and was in such a good mood on Friday.
One other funny thing is Drake will call my belly "The Boy Baby". I was holding him and he couldn't see my belly so he said "Where did the boy baby go?" all I could do was laugh and say "Your sitting on him."

Quick update

So this is a picture from about two months ago when Rusty and I went to our friends cabin in Duck Creek for a weekend. There is so much I haven't been posting lately, so I was going to play catch up today, but I can't get my new pictures to upload. I thought I would post this of Rusty and Lance after they made there way through all the snow so they could turn off the water to the cabin. I think they look like two of the seven dwarfs off of Snow White with their tools and shovel in hand. (BTW-there was so much snow that we ended up having to stay an extra night because we got snowed in)

Anyway we had a great Christmas and New Years and have just been hanging out with family and friends a lot. I am back in town and have been for about a month so I have been working a little and I am enjoying that. I just wish I could work when we travel.
This baby may come any day now, I am due in 9 days but I am still feeling great. He moves like crazy and Rusty thinks it is weird when he can look over and see my whole stomach move. Rusty is just ready to meet this little guy, he will call me about once a day and ask me if I am having contractions or if I am in labor, all I can do is laugh and tell him he will be the first to know. In fact as I was just typing that he just called and wanted to remind me that I need to call him after I go to the doctor today and let him know what they say. He is so funny about this whole thing.
