Finally an UPDATE!!

Everyone keeps buggin me to update our blog and we have not had internet until now. Are you happy Amber and Allison? It's 3:20 in the morning and I'm updating my blog. Bobby is working and I cant sleep. lol Well we went camping with Bobby's family in june and had a blst fishing and just being out doors with our boys. I thought it wouldnt be very fun. Mason was only 11 weeks old. We had a blast though. we got back on a wednesday and moved into our house the following monday. Man it was a crazy couple of days!! We have been moved in for almost 5 weeks now and loving life. It's so nice to have that feeling of belonging somewhere and finally feeling settled after so long. Jarrin loves our new house and his new room. He is the official tour guide when someone comes over, weather they have seen it before or not he has to give the whole tour. It didnt take him long to adjust at all. We are at the end of a dead end street and he loves the fact that he can ride his little four wheeler around without Bobby and I yelling at him to get out of the road. In fact the other day we put Mason in the stroller and we all walked to Bobby's moms house, well except Jarrin, he rode his four wheeler.

Mason is now 4 months old. I cant believe how big he is getting. He is such a fun baby. He is so happy most of the time and always has a big grin for anyone who pays attention to him. He can rool over and is already doing the swimming thing. dont think it will be long before he starts army crawling. He tries to push up off the floor on his hands and feet. Both he and Jarrin have been teething lately so things have been a little cranky around here! lol But i think they are both just about done for now.

I just started a new job at the medical center in the billing office and I also work the walk in clinic at night. I dont have very many hours and most of the time Bobby is home with the boys. so its working out nice. I also just started selling scentsy wickless candles. ( if anyone wants to host a party let me know) so I am staying pretty busy taking care of our little family and all of the other fun stuff.

Bobby is almost done working the night shift and I couldnt be happier. I feel like we dont see eachother at all for the four days he works. But soon we will get to see him more and he wont be so tired all the time. He is loving his job, and has already had some pretty interesting stories to tell me when he gets home from work. well for now thats really all thats going on. Just staying busy with our little family and loving life. I will try and get on here more often so the updates arent so broad.

Mason is here!!







Mason Konnor Martin is finally here!! He was born Thursday April 3rd. He was born in Show low at 1044 am. He weighed 8 lbs and was 20.5 inches. He has a ton of hair as you can see from the pics and its already showing signs of being curly unlike Jarrins whose took 3 months to be curly. Jarrin Is so good with him. He is always asking to hold him and loves helping mommy take care of him.



Yesterday i went into the bedroom for something and i heard Mason start crying and then he suddenly stopped. When I got back into the living room Jarrin was feeding Mason his bottle, " Him hungy momma." He already tells Mason to come play with him. He cant wait for him to stop laying around and start doing something. It is so fun to watch him interact with his little brother. You can tell he loves him so much already. He loves to kiss him and give him "Smoe" kisses. (eskimo kisses) We were on the way to show low today to get some things for the house and the boys were in the back... Mason started to cry and Jarrins reply was, " Nont cry Mace. I share my toy." He had put his toy in Masons carseat so he would stop crying and was holding his hand. Its moments like these that make me feel so blessed and happy to be a mommy. I wake up in the morning and cant believe how lucky I am to be blessed with two special little boys and a loving husband. Life is Great!!

update


Not sure how good I will be at keeping this blog updated, we have alot of things going on in our lives right now but I guess that will give me things to blog about. So I figured now is as good a time as any to start the Martin family blog.

Well for starters we are back in good ol Snowflake.Bobby completed the police accademy December 14th. There couldnt have been a happier wife that day... (Bobby had to stay on campus at the accademy during the week and was able to visit us on the weekends.) Bobby now works for the Snowflake/Taylor Police department. He loves his new job and we are happy to be back in Snowflake with family and friends.

We are living in an apartment in Taylor right now while we are building our first house. After all the moving around that Bobby and I have done since we have been married we are excited to finally settle down somwhere and have a place of our own. The house should be completed sometime in June. It has been fun to pick out and customize things to our liking. I cant wait to have my own house to paint and decorate.

Jarrin just turned two on the 4th. He is a busy and energetic little boy and so much fun to be around. He always keeps us laughing. He loves all things boy.... dirt, riding his new four wheeler, marbles (its a sure bet that you can find a few of them in his pocket) and wrestling with his dad. He talks quite a bit for his age and loves to be outside. We are so excited that with the new house there will be a back yard and a fence so that Jarrin can be outside and run around like little boys should.

We just completed the task of potty training Jarrin right before his second birthday and it couldnt have come at a better time because we are expecting another little boy april 11th. He thinks he wants to come early though. I have been having pre term labor for the last two weeks and have been put on bed rest to keep him from coming too early. Only two more days though and I will be 36 weeks so they will take me off bed rest and when he comes he comes. Jarrin is excited to be getting a little brother. He talks and asks about him all the time and is always kissing and hugging my belly. It will be fun to have two little boys so close together.

So as you can see between Bobby's new job, building our first house, chasing around a two year old and preparing for a new baby we have been staying pretty busy.
