Didn't catch her in time..
Jayden LOVES to draw! Can you tell by the beautiful drawings on her legs?!? Good thing she is so cute! She was playing in my room and I was sitting at the computer which I hardly ever do unless she is napping. While I am on the computer she found my pen next to my bed and she had a blast as you can tell.

California
Wow so much time has passed since I last posted.
We are now living in Vista California. Which is just north of San Diego and about a 10-15 minute drive to the beach, which we are so loving!
We are living in a two bedroom apartment close to where Denny's current job location is where he is training to become a Personal Banker. Which I believe he is close to being done with his training! Yay! We love being out on our own again. loving the weather and our ward. They have been so great!
Our place is almost put together! Just the last few boxes that need organized and put away and all pictures hung except what will go in our bedroom. We have a little balcony where Jayden loves to play. Mostly she plays with her tea set, but also takes her babies out there too.
Jayden and I go for walks every day. sometimes twice a day. We walk to go get the mail and then sometimes we are out for 10 minutes other times it is 45. She LOVES being outside.
We are all adjusting well to a new place. Which is easy to do when it is such beautiful weather! Right now it is 9:15 and it is 62* out! SO NICE!! It will be around 77* today! IN JANUARY!! I am absolutely loving it!!
I will be playing catch up with things I haven't posted, mostly for the record for myself and if I have any readers out there it will be for you too ;)

All about Jayden
Jayden can do sooo many things now and say sooo many things! AMAZING!!
She sign:
Milk, more, please, thank you, friend, book, ball, drink, eat, all done, stop, go, mommy, daddy, and I am pretty sure there are more.
she can also say all of the above words and tons more! She can repeat just about anything, she loves counting. She can count to 12 usually 6, 8 and 11 are missing. Pretty good for an almost two year old!
Jayden loves animals, especially dogs and cats or as she says doggy and kitty, the barks and says meow all the time when she sees pictures of them. She can also recognize the pictures and say what they are for Rhino's, Hippo's, Giraffes, Monkey's, Sheep, Cows, Turtles, Snakes, Leopards, Pandas, Bears, Bunnies, and I can't think of more but I know there are more! She is very smart!
She loves nursery and does great. All the leaders say how good she is and of course how cute she is too. :O)
She is our little angel and makes life so much fun. She loves to eat, play and help mommy in the kitchen. She likes to wear her little apron every time I put mine on. She asks me to turn on music lots, asks to watch movies all the time. Her favorite Characters are Buzz, Woody, Jessie (from Toy Story). Charlie and Lola. Dora. Elmo. She has only seen some of them once but she has stickers and that's how she knew the characters names. So cute!! which reminds me she also LOVES stickers!!
She can sing so many songs.. to add to her list: Away in a Manger, Jingle Bells,
She runs, sings, plays all day long! She LOVES babies and is such a good mom. She rocks, signs to them, feeds them in a high chair, takes them for walks in the stroller around the house, puts them to bed, wipes pretend drool off their chin and sings to them. It is the cutest thing ever!
Jayden is just growing up so fast! It is so fun and yet sad to see her changing!

Play catch up!!
Wow I haven't posted in a while..
Lets see since my last post:
*We celebrated my 26th birthday Which was fun!! :)
*We celebrated Denny's 28th birthday! We ate lunch at the Cheesecake factory, then had dinner at home and had a few people over. Ate cake and ice cream.
*We went to California in late October/early November and had fun with Ann, Mike, Jarom and Mitch! We had a blast and enjoyed the sunshine!
*Jayden was a witch for Halloween and so adorable!
*Thanksgiving was great fun! We stayed here and ate dinner with my parents, Julie & Jon family, Chris & Jen. We had fun times with good people, ate and played games.
*We decorated for Christmas, just a few things, but stockings are up! Jayden loves them! she likes me to take them down one by one and give them hugs and kisses and then put them back up! Santa, Snowman, Elf and Train! She loves the Snowman & Train the best! :o)
*The best thing that has happened is: Denny got a job offer!!!!! We will be relocating to... Southern California, we will be in Carlsbad, CA. We are currently looking for a place. Denny starts work on the 27th of this month! We are excited to have work, and be in our own place! We will miss all family here and being close to our family in Idaho. Denny also found a school there, so he will hopefully start in January. If not then, soon after.
we are very excited about our new adventure and life! Glad we will be close to Ann & Mike, Janice and Eldon, Travis & Carly. We also have other friends that will be about an hour ago or so.
(Pictures of, Halloween, Thanksgiving soon to come!)

Idaho :o)
From California we drove to Idaho, Jayden of course did great! She amazes me every time!
Eric & Chelsea blessed their little girl August 1st. She is so cute! Thanks to them for letting us stay our first night with them!
We had a fun busy week. Russell left for the army Tuesday August 1st, so we spent time with him before we left. He is now in South Carolina for Basic Training and will be gone for 6 months! He will do great and we are so proud of him!
After saying goodbye to Russell, we had a relaxing couple days spending time with Denny's mom Julie and brother Benson. It was fun!
Julie took her grandchildren to the ZOO! She said Jayden did great! She had fun spending time with her cousins and her grandma! Julie said she laughed and smiled and was so excited when she saw the kids feeding lettuce to a giraffe! Wish we could have got that on video! (hopefully soon I can get a video camera!)
The next Sunday Tom & Sheri blessed their cute little Albany! :O) Also Tom's brother had his homecoming the same day!
Here are some pics from the day (again, I didn't take enough pictures!!)
Here is us, Julie, Benson, Doug, Tom & Sheri and family, Tammy & Kevin and family! (Tammy is Denny's dad's sister)

Fortie Family Reunion - Placerville, CA
Denny drove down on a Monday with his brother Doug, who first flew to Portland so he could drive down with Denny. Jayden and I flew to Sacramento the next morning! Which was great to miss out on a 10 hour drive and only have to fly for 1 1/2. Jayden is great on the airplane, she just sang, ate and played! :) So Denny and our Aunt Nicole picked Jayden and I up at the airport. We spent the morning at Nicole's house just catching up and having fun.
That afternoon, we drove to Placerville to Camp Nauvoo. It was fun to meet the Fortie family! (Denny's mom side of the family!) Most of whom I hadn't met yet.
Camp Nauvoo is close to town so some family stayed in a hotel, most camped. They had a great grassy field that people pitched tents, they had a kitchen and an indoor eating area, which kept us together for meals which was so fun. (thank you Uncle Jeff and all who helped with meals! the food was so good! I know Denny was in there for almost all of them, doing what he could to help!)
Of course mostly the pictures I took were of Jayden.. wishing I took more pictures!
One of the days we drove to a park which was on our way back to town, and played softball. (I didn't.. but Denny did) I walked around with Jayden and then she took a nap. It was nice and hot so I had the car on and I read while she napped. The family had fun playing!
Jayden and her cousin Kelsie! Jayden loved to play with her! :)
Jayden and Kelsie
Denny playing badminton (no idea if that's right when i say it I thought you spell it badmitten? Have I been saying wrong?)

Here is a couple pics of Jayden I took while we watched the game in the shade! She is just too cute!!
Everyone playing softball, it's the only picture I took of the game.
We were there from Tuesday afternoon to Friday afternoon, time flew by so fast!
Here are pics from our last morning!
