Inside and Out

Jacob has learned several things this week about inside and out:

1. Hannah's socks go over her tights.
- I teach the Valiant 10-11 year old kids in Primary the second hour and therefore Jacob takes care of Hannah during that time. On Sunday he came into my class asking for a new diaper and wipes. Hannah had used the bathroom. So I handed him the stuff and he did his thing. He then brought her to me the third hour and I left with her to the Mother's room to feed her and I noticed her socks were missing. As I looked closer at her feet I realized her socks were inside her tights. When he changed her diaper he removed the socks and tights; and in result rearranged her socks and tights inside-out! The new things he learns with having a girl!

2. Always pay attention when dressing your children.
-Malachi, of course, is potty trained. But he needs help when going to poop. The other day Jacob had to help him because I was feeding Hannah. They went and came. A couple of minutes later, I glance over at Malachi and notice his shorts are backwards. I made him change and as he was pulling his shorts down, we noticed his underwear was also backwards. I look over at Jacob and point out what is going on. All his fault! We laughed.

The things that you do and learn as a parent!

Our Story

Jacob and I met with the help of my uncle, David Martinez. My uncle was the bishop of a ward Jacob served in during his mission. He gave Jacob my cell phone number, or so Jacob thought, during a phone call Jacob had with him after his mission. I had already met Jacob during his last two weeks of his mission, Norma introduced us, because his last area was my home ward. Jacob and I started hanging out in Provo when Fall school semester started at the Y. And that's how it all started.

Jacob and I were married on June 2, 2007 in Dallas, Texas.

We lived in Provo, UT while both of us finished school on April 2010. Jacob majored in Sociology and I graduated in Chemistry.

We lived on the East Coast, Delaware to be exact, for almost 2.5 years! We enjoyed it. Made some amazing friends! I loved the warm, mild climate and all the green trees! I guess because it reminds me of good ole' Texas.

We recently moved to Frisco, Texas. And are loving the area!!

We have a 5 year old boy who's into action figures and loves music. He will start kindergarten this Fall 2013 and is learning to read. He is good at math. He has the most charitable heart and is the best big brother a sister could have.

Hannah "banana," like we call her, is 2! She is into action figures just as much as her brother. We are slowly introducing her to Disney princesses and is a Little Mermaid fan. She loves to mimic her brother and follow him everywhere. She is my drama queen and the one that tests my patience the most.

Rachel is such a mellow baby. She is coming up to 7 months. She is my big baby! She is starting to become more interactive and sits up on her own. She is sleeping through the night and slowly eating solids. Her routine consists of eating, sleeping, and exploring the world. As long as she's fed and diaper cleaned she is content.
