Where Are They Now: Jackson and Austin

So there used to be a show, and maybe it's still around, called "Where Are They Now", and basically the whole premise of the show was to give updates on actors that were famous (or infamous) back in the day.  Anyway, it's time again for the Nuffer rendition of "Where Are They Now" featuring my favorite little bugs, Jackson and Austin!  If you want to see the last Nuffer rendition of "Where Are They Now" you can find it here.

First up, Jackson!  Jackson is 3, but he'll be 4 next month!
**Fresh from the horses mouth!
Favorite toy:  "Uh, blocks."
Favorite past-time:  "Um... read books."
Favorite color:  "GREEN!"
Favorite clothes:  "Hot dog shirt!"  And sure enough he asked to wear his hot dog shirt today, how appropriate!  PS  I bought him this shirt because last summer his favorite shirt had a hot dog on it and it said, "What's up dog".  He loved that shirt, so when I found this shirt I just knew he would love it as well.
What do you want to be when you grow up?  "I want to be Daddy."  I love this answer!
Favorite food:  "Hot dogs."  Of course.
Favorite thing to do with Daddy:  "Play with him."
Favorite thing to do with Mommy:  "To be nice with her."  hahahahahaha!!!  And read.  I hear, "can we read my books to read all by myself, please?" all day long.
Favorite thing to do with Austin:  "To play with blocks with him."  They do play blocks a lot.

PS this is his "smile for the camera" face...

Now it's Austin's turn!  Austin is 15 months.
Favorite toy:  His blanket.  He carries his blanket with him everywhere!  And if anyone (even Mommy) touches his blanket then there will be immediate repercussions.
Favorite past-time:  Climbing!  He tries to climb everything and it's about to give me a heart attack!
Favorite color:  It seems to be Green, also.
Favorite clothes:  NONE!  He hates getting dressed and getting his diaper changed.  It's such a struggle.  For a little guy he sure is strong!
What do you want to be when you grow up:  I'm guessing a gymnast because he loves to climb so much, and hid in small places.
Favorite food:  Fruit!  Any fruit, except melons of any kind.  Last night I don't even think he chewed the peaches and nectarines Daddy gave him.
Favorite thing to do with Daddy:  Wrestle.
Favorite thing to do with Mommy:  Snuggle.
Favorite thing to do with Jackson:  Rub his head.  I don't know why Austin likes to rub Jackson's head, but he does it all. the. time.

If you decorate, it will come.

A friend of mine uses the motto, "if you decorate, it will come". So I decorated for fall because I want the fall weather to get here already. I'm a pregnant lady who doesn't like the heat when I'm not pregnant, so I'm especially not fond of it right now. It's supposed to be in the low 80's here, but instead it's in the high flippin' 90's! A friend of mine has a fabulous blog, http://smallsimplethingswithlove.blogspot.com, and it is my FAVORITE blog, so check it out. Nicole, is talented and creative and on a budget!! (my 3 favorite things) Anyway, she had some really cute ideas on her blog that I stole and it got me in the mood for decorating! This picture is of our entry way, by our front door. My favorite part is the autumn picture which I made with my handy-dandy Cricut machine. My husband even helped, hehe. I've had the frame for at least 10 years and I just took out the old ugly picture of the flower that was in it and crea

Maybe a new birthday tradition...

I just have one brother and his birthday is 5 days before mine, so it's been pretty easy to keep up with him. Jim, however, has 3 brothers and a sister, and now 3 of his siblings are married, so the birthday's just keep adding up. My forgetful brain can NOT keep up. Anyway, I've been looking for a cute and thoughtful way to send birthday greetings to all the aunts and uncles since we've been married. Almost 4 years later I think I finally have an idea! My idea is to make a birthday sign every year and have the boys take a picture with the sign for whatever family member has a birthday. Then send the person the picture with birthday greetings. Then every year they will have a different picture with the boys as they grow and I won't feel guilty missing anyone's birthday without proper acknowledgement. I also thought that it would make a great photo album for us if we keep each person's birthday picture with the boys and watch their growth progression

My boys on missions?

It's no secret that I'm a convert to the LDS church.  I'd been a member for so long when I got married it seemed like old hat, but then I had children.  We are blessed with the 2 most beautiful, most intelligent, most funny boys in the world so naturally you'd think this LDS mommy would ecstatically prepare her boys to serve missions one day as all good, decent LDS moms do.  Yeah.  Well, that wasn't the case for me.  Even though my oldest is only 4 and my baby is not quite 2 *but almost* I think about their futures, plan for their futures, and encourage them to look ahead, so I've thought about this for quite a while.  And when I say I've "thought" about this for quite awhile, that's really "Raylene-speak" for I've WORRIED about this for quite awhile.  I can't imagine letting my two precious baby boys into a world where they'll be ridiculed or mocked even if it is to bring the gospel to people who need to hear it.  In my m
