The Blackham Bunch: October 2012
http://amyjustin.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 29, 2012. We are finally getting settled into our home! We got the keys (after several more delays and kinks in the process.even after we'd already signed all the papers! Surprisingly the move in went very fast, even with only 4 or 5 men helping. The next day, Friday, was a "clean every surface possible" kind of day. Thank you Amanda and Heather for all your help in cleaning! By the 24th, when the carpet was installed. Here's a lovely unexpected home ownership situation we've encountered.

Wednesday, May 29, 2013. It was awesome seeing all of our family, it is happening less and less it seems.down to twice a year if that. Maybe some day we will live closer together but for now these trips are such treasures. I also tried scallops and really liked those as well. I am trying to expand my "seafood preferences" beyond just salmon, haha. Can't wait til our next visit! And Emma being her typical, hilarious self. She will give one good smile for every ten silly faces. Nana with her grands. The we...

http://amyjustin.blogspot.com/2014/02/mother-of-two.html
Wednesday, February 26, 2014. It has been two months (almost) since Henry was born, hard to believe but at the same time it seems like so much has happened during those two months. We had so many wonderful visits with family and several glorious short work weeks for Justin. In fact this week is the first full 5 day work week for Justin.and for me being home with the boys on my own. 6:30am-Henry wakes to nurse, Caleb wakes for day. Henry falls back asleep. Caleb and I watch cartoons until 7:30am. 9:30am-H...

The Blackham Bunch: Easter weekend 2014
http://amyjustin.blogspot.com/2014/05/easter-weekend-2014.html
Friday, May 9, 2014. We decided to make a whole weekend of fun for our family Easter weekend this year! Saturday. Justin worked in the yard and I worked in the kitchen! I had to make a few yummy things to take to Easter dinner the next day and Justin is totally in his element in the yard. I am thankful for a husband who values a nice looking/well maintained yard! I think Justin and I went on a date that night and saw Captain America, we love getting our dates in each month! We love Dairy Keen!

Monday, January 14, 2013. Disneyworld-Blackham family reunion 2013. So a few days after New Years day we packed up and flew our nearly frozen bodies to the beautiful sunshine state known as Florida! This trip couldn't have come at a better time.we had no idea how much snow South Jordan would be getting this winter and if we had we probably would have waited until Spring to move! It is fah-reezing every single day, highs in the teens! This park ranks #2 for me on this trip (out of 5). Sunday we went to Ch...

The Blackham Bunch: Potty training
http://amyjustin.blogspot.com/2014/05/potty-training.html
Friday, May 9, 2014. I have a potty trained Caleb! I have to say, since every mother has said potty training is the absolute worst, it totally prepared me for.well the absolute worst weeks of my life. But because of that mentally I found that I was so pleasantly surprised by Caleb and how well he did each day. There was no scrubbing poop off the carpet or sopping pee off the wood floors like I figured there would be! What a sweet boy you have! Its nice to have the potty training behind you!

http://amyjustin.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 8, 2013. We just got home for a wonderful week long stay with Justin's parents in Chicago. It was, as usual, so nice being with family! And to top it off Justin didn't have to work and we were able to see/do some pretty fun things. I took far too few photos unfortunately but we did lots of things- eat yummy food, boat architecture tour of Chicago, lots of shopping, spent quality time with family and we were even able to attend Justin's nephews baptism. Till next time Chicago!

Monday, December 17, 2012. Christmas, part one. We have officially celebrated our first Christmas eve and Christmas day for December!

Caleb loves to point at everything these days. Matt helping Caleb lo...

We are told there are multiple offers (ugh! And we need to give our best and highest offer. So we submit our highest offer. Basically all that n...
