Things just don't slow down!!!

So life has definitely not slown down at the Johnson household these days and it won't be slowing down any time in the near future. Preston has been traveling for work quite a bit and my plate has been full as usual. Last weekend I threw a shower for my friend Kristin. We hosted the shower at our house, so needless to say that was extremely crazy! The shower went great and that night our friends Ben and Laura came over for dinner since we hadn't seen them in a while. It was great catching up.

Child...that hair is ridiculous!!!

Jacie and Laura hanging out!

She loves the tickle monster!!! She has gotten a bit more naughty these days. She has learned to spit out her food if she doesn't like it. It is quite frustrating, but sometimes it is hard not to laugh. I have learned that I just have to tell her no and turn my head because if I smile even one bit she starts laughing because she thinks it is funny.

She has also decided that she does not need to eat baby food any more. We have much better luck if we let her feed herself. She is a bit independent...I wonder where she gets that from! :)
On a side note we have been having some major issues with ear infections. She has had an ear infection for over 3 straight weeks now and even after two rounds of antibiotics she still hasn't kicked it. I am kind of running out of ideas at this point...I am hopeful that it clears up in the near future.

This weekend we took a trip to Kansas to go and visit my brother Zach. It worked out perfectly. We showed up and it was 60 degrees out. We were at the game for about five minutes when Zach was put in to pitch. He pitched an amazing game and his team ended up winning. We had to deck Jacie out in some FS apparel...and unfortunately they don't make any small enough for her, so I just had to improvise! She looked so cute!
This is Jacie cheering for her uncle...Go Greyhounds! :)

Her and Uncle Z after the game. He is growing some sort of nasty mustache...you can see it if you zoom in and look very carefully. We love you anyways Zachary.

Aside from enjoying the games we got to take Zach out to dinner and breakfast to treat him to some "non-dorm" food. It was really great to get to spend some time with him, we miss him a lot and he won't be home again until right before J's Birthday.

Daddy and J hanging at the hotel.

Finally...we have had some big news in the last two weeks. We have another new nephew...Ethan Matthew Gens was born on Thursday, Feb. 25th. He was 7lb 8oz and is SOOOOO stinkin cute. I am a little biased, but he reminds me a lot of Jacie when she was first born. We are going to get to meet him very soon so just wait for some adorable pictures of all the cousins!!!
