Poor Van!!

The main belt on the van has not broke in some time and we are thankful for that. The belt keeps falling off however, after falling off a few times we had to replace it. We had the van looked at today and they said that it might be a good idea to get a new van because of some things that might be causing the belt problem. So the time has finally has come to get a new van.

Other then that we are all happy healthy and doing well.
Zacharia is having fun in school, he loves it. He has a bit of a mouth on him, but he is a wounderful kid.
Jacob is having fun taking everything apart that he can and trowing everything else. oh to be young again.
Joshua has 4 teeth now and working on some more, he really hates being put on the floor even when hes on his back, I think I am going to have to let him be so he can learn to roll over and crawl and sit up, you know little things like that.
Brandon is doing well and helps out a lot more then he thinks he does.
Danielle passed all her classes this term and is looking forward to next term.(maybe)

The family is doing well we are hoping to get the boys room done soon and clean out the gargae if only it would be dry for just a few days to do it.
love ya all

Jacob

Danielle brought out the potty chair yesterday and Jacob went in the potty all day, she said he only went in his diaper 2 times. However it all fell apart when he took a nap. This morning Jacob took off his own diaper and went on the potty, then he wanted nothing to do with it for the rest of the day. maybe we will start again when we get our taxes back and get some pull ups. or maybe we will start again next month. Who knows.

Joshua now has 4 teeth and working on some more. oh boy!!
Zacharia is proud to be 5 years old and loves doing school at home.

Everyone is doing well.
Will see those of you comming over for thanksgiving later this week, and hope all goes well for everyone.

New Table!!!!!

We got a new dining room table just in time for Thanksgiving. It's at our house this year, Danielle wants to cook 2 turkeys I told her 1 was enough. A few days ago Jacob found a sucker and Danielle gave it to him, Zachaira saw that he had it and wanted one too. Danielle told him that was the only one next thing she knows is that they are both sharing the sucker. owe.

Halloween was fun we went to Danielles parents house and hid from all the trick or treaters. No we did not take our kids this year, maybe next year now that we know about what time everything starts in this neck of the woods.

Danielle is doing ok in school, she got a D on her mid term in psy, but got an A and a B on her Math exams.

A friend of ours gave us money to order Zacharias school stuff for Nov and Dec, hopefully we can come up with the rest for the rest of the year. He loves it so much, everyday he bugs Danielle about doing school, even on sat and sunday.

All is well here no one is sick thanks to Danielle making us all take Vitamin D.
The kids are great and they are warm and loved.

No more table!!!

Well in finally happened, our dinning room table broke. R.I.P
It was a good table, sturdy, cleanable. sorry to see it go.
(Danielle did it)
The leg broke off. Now we are dealing with it the best we can.
This week we had to put new tires on the van just to find out that the left side front brakes were all worn down, there were no brakes left. just on the one side, the other side had barley any waring. oh well.

Our dinning room is now Purple. Danielle painted it a few days ago and is working on the final touches.
well talk to you all later.

Nothing new here. Joshua has his two bottom teeth in now and is starting to cut the top ones. Zacharia is enjoying is preschool at home and wishes he could do it on the weekend, but mommy wants a break. Jacob loves getting into things right now, which drive mommy crazy.
Zacharia also keeps asking if its his birthday yet, which really drives mommy crazy. This year he picked out a theme all by himself and we are trying not to have to much fun with it. He picked out Halloween. Danielle started school and took a look at her pre-al and regreted signing up for the class, but she needs it, and will also need a ton of help, she hates math. Her psy class looks like fun. Brandons knee is doing great and is back to work on his reg shift, 6:30am-3pm. He wakes up at 5am. Danielle gets up then to, and does school work while the boys hopefully stay in bed til 7am. Thats about it for now, will post more later.
T.T.F.N.

new pics of family. ENJOY!!!

Happy Birthday Brandon!!!

So today is Brandon's birthday and this morning when he was leaving to go to work everybody gave him a goodbuy hug. When Joshua gave him a hug he also gave him a little something else to go with him, baby spit up. Brandon hug him 2 times and then he had to change his shrit. hahaha. What a wounderful start to a wounderful day.

Another BABY?????????????

Last night me and Zacharia went on a car ride and in that ride zach said that there was a baby in my tummy and that it was a boy, he also said that i have to have a baby in my tummy all the time because i am the mommy. i told him that at some point i will never have any more babys in my tummy, he said that i will because i am the mommy and my job is to have babys in my tummy.


Zacharia quote: mommy can you have 4 more babies?

Jacob quote: ya, go now. he says this when he trys to take your hand and tell you what you want, when you ask him if he wants something he says that.

What did you say???

We were just sitting down and eating dinner. we had fish and applesauce. Danielle was holding the baby so I pored the applesauce for her, when I was done Zacharia looked over at her plate and said. " mommy why do you have so much? are you pregnet?" this was very funny, had to share.

Jacob Doc Apt

So Danielle took Jacob to his 2 year check up and Jacob would not sit still to be weighed or messured or looked at. When it was time for his shot he glared at the M.A and then watched the needle go in yelled out one time and that was it. After the apt was over he ran stright fo the door, poor thing was more upset about going to the doc then getting a shot. Funny stuff.

POOP OH MY!!!

Jacob is now loving water to death, he is the first one in and the last one out kicking and screaming. Zacharia wanted to take a bath one morning and Jacob wanted in to, so Danielle said why not and put them in the tub together. After about 20 mintues of being in the tub Zach yells out that Jacob pooped in the tub. Danielle told him to get out, zach said "but i want to stay in and play in the bath" Danielle said " you want to play with poop?" Zach said no and then got out. poor Jacob had no idea what he did and was also upset that he had to get out of the water.


Zacharia quote: "Jacob did that from over there" said when Danielle asked him to stop trowing balls in his room. Jacob was in the living room asleep on the floor.

Jacob quote: "upa" he says this now everytime he wants to be picked up sounds a little like apple to me.

2 months old!!!

Joshua is now 2 months old, his first 4th was done by sleeping. Jacob and Zacharia loved to watch the fireworks this year so thats good. And the boys slept all night even with all the noise. WOW!!

Joshua Kyle Janes

Ok here is his picture at last now this was when he was 1 day old i will post more pics later.

The weeks after the baby was born were tiring and a little hard, but we all got through it. over the weekend holiday my sister Tia and her family came to visit, along with my brother. it was great the kids all got along well with little fighting. Danielle instited to have everyone over for dinner one night, so we did that. we all played scene it the t.v edition. danielle felt really young and a little out of place but we all had fun. it was nice to see barton all weekend as well our kids love him so much. well thats a wrap T.T.F.N

BABYS HERE AT LAST!!!!!!!

So Joshua Kyle Janes was born on May 9 2009 at 1:53pm he was 8lbs 10oz 20 in long. his head was 15 in and his shoulders were 14 in. His cord came out first then the doctor shoved her hand up Danielle and put it back. The doctor put a vacum on his head to help deliver him faster so as to avoid a c-section. He came out so quick that the doctor almost droped him, and then when Danielle delivered the plencenta the doctor almost droped that as well. The doctor said Danielle makes slippery stuff. While the nurses were cleaning the baby up I looked at him and said, he looks small. this coming from a baby that was 8 lbs. still smaller then Jacob. His body was a smaller fram then Zacharia and Jacob. The nurses thought he was so cute they gave him a bath 2 times. Well that's it for now.

Yet another day!!

Easter was yet another day this year, we went to Danielle's parents house and Zacharia dyed eggs. Jacob wanted nothing to do with that funny looking water that made the eggs change color, but once they were colored he had no problem breaking the eggs. We took the colored eggs to my mom's house and gave them to her. Hope she ate them. We don't eat much eggs and Zacharia wanted to give them to mom because "he made them"
Danielle is doing fine and is hanging in there, she wants the baby NOW.
hahahahahahhaha

Birthday Party!!!!

We had a party for Barton, that old man is 40 years old!!!!!!! we had good tasting choclate truffle cake from bartons fav store, walmart. we also had dinner but mom and dad had to go before it was done. budget was tight so barton only had a couple of old fart stuff. speaking of budget ours is through the roof, or bathroom any way, we are replacing the tub and floor in our bathroom which is going to take a little longer then planned because our plumber was sent the wrong tub. so instead of being without a bath tub/shower for a week its more like 2-3 weeks. now for some qutoes.

Jacob: being kind of in truble danielle doing the counting thing started from 3 and going to 1 said 3 jacob finshed saying "2" so cute he knew what was next.

Zacharia: when asked why are you being so grumpy replied to dainelle "because you havent given me a hug yet"

Guess the Date

We are having a poll on when the baby will be born, scince he is very big we dont think he will be on time or late. So what day in May do you think Danielle will have the baby? and for more fun how big do you think he will be? if you can not post a comment then please email Danielle about it.
Thanks

Big Baby!!

so Danielle had an ulta sound apt today that we were almost late for, the apt was at 9 am and we all woke up at 8 30 opps. The baby is mesuring at 32 weeks but Danielle is only 28 1/2 weeks along so the baby is about a month ahead. WOW thats a big baby. I still think it will be born around the 15th of may but Danielle still thinks it will be born around the 5th of may. T.T.F.N

Hello my name is Joshua Janes

This is Joshua Kyle Janes Here is my pic that was taken today. Barton joined us on this visit. we all had fun, Joshua did not want to sit still at all for the lady and he kept playing with is feet over his head of corse. Zacharia wanted to leave and Jacob did fine. Danielle was on top of a really high table so she did not see what the kids were doing but they did fine. everyone got to see Joshua on a t.v. this was so cool.

Jacob and the cat

Today I Danielle was stuck at home because jacob was pucking with no fever and nothing else and zacharia has a fever of 102 with nothing else, other then that they are fine. They dont seem sick at all. Jacob grabed a dipper today and went over to our cat puff and tried to put it on her. the cat stayed around long enough for jacob to figure how the diaper works then she took off, but that did not stop him he chased her around the house with the diaper. Friday the 20th we are going up to portland and getting a video of joshua, any that would like to see it will have to wait until next week or so.
T.T.F.N

ME TOO!!!

Today as we sat at the dinner table I let out a fart. Zacheria said" Daddy you burped." Burped being his word for fart. "Me too." Zacheria leaned over and lifted his left butt cheek and made a pushing face. Then he sat up straight and said " Maby not." That was rather funny Danielle and I got a chuckle out of that one.

Big Baby

ok Danielle went to the doctors on monday and found out that she is measuring 10 cm bigger then she sould. and the ultra sound a few weeks ago says that the baby is 2 weeks bigger. so i am thinking she will have joshua around may 15th Danielle thinks and hopes that it will be closer to the 6th of may. she claims that she dose not want another big baby like jacob was. she says she wants a 'baby'. everything else is fine and everyone is doing great. T.T.F.N.

Happy New Year!!

The New Year and all it brings hope it will bring good things to all. Daniell and the boys went to bed but Danielle woke up to the sound of someone next door say yea yea happy new year and then someone from across the street yelling back, yea man happy new year. That along with a bunch of fireworks going off, you know the ones that are not allowed in oregon. Brandon's new year started off with a very loud argument with a coworkworker at work, opps. This year our family is starting off with a new house that we can call our own, needs a little work but at least its ours. Hope everyone has A good year this year or at least makes the best out of what is thrown at them.
