Merry Thanksgiving!!




What a fun day we've had! First and foremost, I had to update the blog to Christmas, (I can't tell you how excited I've been to do that!) Anyway, the whole fam came down (living in AZ) and Kelly from Utah, and we had a FEAST. It was incredibly delicious. . .one of the best Thanksgiving Dinners I can remember. I carved the turkey, and I must say the Food Network gave me some good tips on that today.

Jax LOVED playing with his cousins. He couldn't get enough of them. After dinner they all went in the backyard and played. We had an unusually rainy, cloudy day, so they got pretty muddy back there. Apparently Jax loved to terrorize the other cousins chasing them with metal poles or bricks. The older cousins came in and said "Jaxon keeps chasing us and trying to scare us." We were like, uh. . .he's two. I'm sure it was all in good fun for him.
Jax already for prayer so he can dig into the feast!


Kodee has had a pretty fussy day.
Notice the shirt!!

We're wondering if he might be colicky because he's always squirming, and he spits up A TON! He had a couple of doozies today. We passed him around the family and this is how he would cry with cousin, Alyssa. Hilarious. He'd be shrieking, then get this surprised look on his face. What a weirdo. I can't even tell you how different from Jaxon he is.



We got to take new family pictures today!! Yay! We've been wanting to do this ever since Kodee popped out. We were so lucky to have Kim there with her SHNAZZY camera to take these, first rate, professional quality photos. She's a PRO! We're so thankful you could do that for us Kim, they turned out GREAT!

Here's some of our favorites. Like I said, we were having a beautiful cloudy, rainy day here in Thatcher, so the background couldn't be better! It reminds me of the Smokey Mountains in North Carolina. They always look like this, so here they are. . .the Smokey Graham Mountain!

The most beautiful girl in the world (and cutest baby!)

Could Jax be any cuter?

Keith Family Totem Pole!

Our Little Stud!

The little guy was FREEZING, and a little whimpery, this was the best we could get.

Fun with dad!

The two most in love people on the planet, I might dare say!




Another cute one of Jax. The only way we could contain him was get him on his back and hold him in place to get a good headshot. Does this work?

We think this ones the one for the wall. What do you think?


Those Krazy Keiths!

The classic "walking away pose!"

Two of the most thankful people in the world. Seriously we couldn't be more thankful: two beautiful boys, a wonderful loving family, awesome friends, great job, things are WONDERFUL!

Now that I've seen these pictures, I know for sure that Ari could give Paige Davis a run for her money on those R.C. Wiley ads. Kodee and Jaxon have grown up so much!

Such a cute family!!

You may want to have your little one checked for reflux, especially if he spits up a lot. We had Maddie on meds and it helped a TON.

I love the pics! You guys have such a cute little family! I also love the picture of Jaxon folding his arms. That's my favorite part of the day is watching my kids pray! Hope you had a good Thanksgiving!

Hey Jordan! I just wanted to post and tell you both what a gorgeous family you have! You guys look SO happy and your boys are too cute!

If Kodee is spitting up and squirming like you said, talk to his doctor about possible reflux. My baby, Shaelana, had that and for the first 7 months she seemed semi colicky and spit up CONSTANTLY. I swear it seemed like everything that she ate came right back up. Her doctor put her on liquid zantac and it was worked wonders on her. She actually has put on weight since from holding more down! Just a suggestion...hope it helps.

It's great to see your blog! I hope to hear from you guys!

Take care,
