Tucker is starting to sit up by himself for short stints of time.



He's a big boy sitting in the cart by himself!
Hanging out with Great Grandma Pearman, he likes people so much.
Chowin down on some corn on the cob, delicious.

Trip Planning

We are going to Washington D.C. in about a month now. Hotels will make you go bankrupt in downtown D.C., so I started searching out a deal...and found a place that turns out to be in the bad part of town. (Good thing I did my research BEFORE I paid the non-refundable fee). Turns out we will probably be sleeping and dining with cockroaches and bed bugs. Oh yay. I called Jordan at work and was bawling about the awful situation. He reassured me it will all work out. I just hope we come back alive. This isn't a third world country, it can't be that bad....right?

Tucker enjoys taking over our bed for his morning naps...
I made some homemade baby food yesterday. It was the easiest thing, just cooked the carrots and ground them up with a little added water. I love how natural and healthy it is and I know exactly what my baby is eating, rather than prepackaged baby food jars.
A little bit chunkier than I would have liked, but Tucker still enjoyed it!

McCall with the Hansen clan


Camping CAmPInG CamPING Camping CAMPiNG
Jordan took the week off work and we went camping in McCall with all of Jordan's family. Two of the nights there were HUGE thunderstorms all around us. We played a game of War straight from Brazil, went wake boarding, Tucker had his first boat ride, and hung out at the beach. Inspite of all the rain, we discovered that Ridley's in McCall has the BEST doughnuts.

Marsh full of mosquitos. Yum.


BOB can go anywhere! We left ours home but Jon and Rachel were nice enough to let us use theirs. Way to go BOB!!




Girls weekend in Oregonia


Let's just say it was pretty miraculous that I actually left my son for a whole weekend and turned out to be okay with it! We went on a Rogue River jet boat ride. The tour guide was spinning cookies, and drenched us. The scenery was breathtaking.
They took us to a lodge down the river where we ate dinner. Steve with our table's pitcher of beer...no worries, we returned it. But lets just say other tables didn't and the ride back was a little more rambunctious.
Saturday we went to the adorable town of Jacksonville and did some shoppin. Don't you love my hat?
There was a bit of craziness when Susan and my mom found the candy cigs...
Look at the size of this mallow...this is no parlor trick...it's like 4 times the size of your average mallow!
(Maybe you can't tell from the picture, but I'm not joking!) It was a very fun weekend! So glad I went!
Tim McGraw and Lady Antebellum Concert!!


Jordan got me tickets for the concert for Mother's Day and the day finally came for the much anticipated event! Lady Antebellum and Tim were both so awesome. Two women weaseled their way past security and jumped on Tim...yikes...crazies. I'm not gonna lie, he is a hunk(with his hat on), but I like most of all how he is a good family man.
He may look microscopic....but he's down there!!

Thank you Jordan! It was a blast!
Attempt at a Photoshoot with Tucker


He is trying to explain something to his lion.

Hanging out in my laundry....

Reading books...isn't he smart!!His preferred position for sleeping...
He's irresistable!!!



Leavitt's Invade Manti in June

As always there was great food and great fun to be had at the reunion. We went fourwheeling, swam in the lake, my cousin Amy and I nearly drowned from laughing while swimming back to shore after jumping ship on the paddleboat. Tucker loved camping! And of course the whole reason for going, the Manti Pageant!



I just love how Tucker's arm is resting on Grandpa's belly. So cute.



The view from the mountain we four-wheeled up. Who know Utah was so gorgeous?! I thought only Idaho was that beautiful. ;)
