Hellooo little Ellie Jane!

Here she is: and she is a good little baby.She has definately changed things in our house.

Almost done!

Jared is almost done with school and I am almost done with this pregnancy! But... we had a great summer in Utah/Idaho and here are some of my favorite photos:

The Chaffin Family Reunion.... good times!

Well, it was a successful family reunion. We played lots of waterballoon volleyball, saw the fireworks, stayed up too late, and got some good pictures out of the deal as well.

In the new place and Jared becoming an old fart!

So we are in the new place for the summer and Jared is turning 31! Grandma and Granpa Chaffin came to stay with us for part of the weekend so we got Jared an Indiana Jones Cake and had a party. It was fun and now Jared can't make any more cracks about me being an older woman for 6 months.

Grandma and Brody had a cake eating contest and Brody won... no surprise there; the kid lives on sugar!

The Last Days in Rexburg... (for now)

Our last Rexburg playdate for a while at Terry and Trina's... the kids did an easter egg hunt. It was a great day.
Our last day to play in the snow at the cabin this season. So much fun!


Jared got to try out Edwin's newest toys... the 2009 Polaris 800 Dragons... he loved it just a little bit too much... we think he either bruised or cracked a rib while showing off later in this sequence:) So worth it though.


Brody and Daddy on the Dragon... fun stuff. The whole day was a blast and Brody hasn't stopped talking about it. We actually made up a song about the "b-bile cabin" and he won't go to bed without it now.

The guys snowmobiling weekend

Jared in his happy place... Yeah all the guys went up to the cabin for the week and did guys stuff,... they watched movies, talked about dieting, complained about their spouses,discussed their favorite novels, watched movies, etc very manly stuff... they also broke a few rented machines. All in all, it sounded like they had a great time..

What were Brody and I doing while Jared and the boys were playing in the snow?... lets just say, it was really noisy and really messy... and Jared had to clean up the house when he got home (pretty much yer average couple of days)...

Weekend in Utah

Well, we just got back from Utah at Grandma and Granpa Wells'. It was fun... aside from all of us feeling under the weather... Both Brody and I have awful coughs and can't seem to get rid of them. We went to Temple square and wandered around... we looked at some apartments and on sunday, I got to go to the Messiah rehearsal with mom and sing with the small orchestra. On the way home we went to Grandma Chaffin's birthday party. All in all it was a really fun weekend. I think it's safe to say I am experiencing a strong pregnancy this time... I am sooo much sicker than even with Brody!... no fun, but a good sign, anyway, it will pass.... We miss you all and hope to see you soon... Love, Mar, Jar, and Brod

"What you talkin' bout Willis?"

We are pregnant again!

Yep, if all goes well, I am be having another October baby which will be fun. It's still pretty early so everyone keep your fingers crossed for me that this takes better than last time! Anyhoo, for now, watch out, another Chaffin is on its way... Love, Mar Jar and Brod
