Fun In The Tub

We're not sure what was so funny to Connor, but we thought we'd share this cute video clip with you.

Where Did He Go?

The other morning I set Connor down on the floor in the living room and went to start the laundry. I was maybe gone for 2-3 minutes and thought that since I had set him down with all of his toys, I'd come back and find him where I left him. I'm sure all of you moms out there that have mobile children are laughing, but I'm new at the whole crawling thing. So, when I came back into the living room he was no where to be found. I looked in all of the nearby rooms, and I couldn't find him anywhere. Finally after searching for 5 minutes, I heard a noise back in bathroom to our bedroom. I walked in to find this...


Connor found a box of tampons... Needless to say, I made sure our home was baby proofed a bit better after this experience. Rookie mistake!

Stroller Rides

Nevada is great this time of year! The lows are in the 40's and the highs, sometimes in the 70's. Connor and I take full advantage of the sunshine, by taking a walk everyday. It's great; I get a bit of exercise and Connor gets to munch on Cheerios while watching the cars go by. I figure we'd better enjoy the weather while we can; I'm sure the summer temperatures will be brutal!

Connor is Finally Crawling!

Happy Valentine's Day

Connor was excited to get this Elmo doll for Valentine's Day. This particular Elmo blows kisses; Connor was just kissing him back, I guess.

Our Move to Nevada

We were informed by Jake's company over the holidays that we'll be moving to Mesquite, Nevada at the first of the year (for those of you who are counting, yes, that's 3 moves in the last year and a half). We're actually pretty excited to be moving back to the west; however we are sad to be leaving behind some great friends in Ohio and unfortunately, we won't be as close to my side of the family anymore.

All Ready For Church

I just couldn't resist sharing these photos of Connor in his new outfit he got for Christmas. What a handsome little guy!

Funny Faces

I don't know what it is about Connor lately, but he loves to make these funny faces while he's eating. He sure is entertaining!

I Passed!

After many long hours of hard work over the last year, I managed to pass the CPA exam! What a relief to have that over with!

Happy Anniversary!

Wow! Two years Jake, can you believe it? I just wanted to let you know how much you mean to me. All of the joy I experience in my life, I attribute to you. Thank you for being the steady rock in our family and for always putting a smile on my face. You are such an amazing husband and father; I couldn't imagine going through this life with anyone else by my side. Who would have thought that shy kid I sat next to in business class 3 years ago would have made a girl like me so happy?

Connor's First Christmas

Oh How I've Missed My Old Friends!

It was great to meet up with some of my friends from high school while home in Virginia for the holidays. It had been about 5 years since I had seen most of them! I guess that's what happens when you decide to go to college 2000 miles away....eeesh! I need to do a better job of keeping in touch...

Rosvall Family Pictures

It's not too often that the Rosvall's are all together for a family picture! Here we all are along the James River in Richmond, Virginia...there wasn't one picture where Connor was looking at the camera. I think it's funny how he seems to be looking up at all of us as if he's saying, "what are you guys smiling at?"

Early Christmas w/the Blackham's

Last week we were able to make an unexpected trip to Utah to attend Uncle LaMont's funeral. It was nice to see everyone for the holidays. Here a just a few pictures from our trip.

Tribute to Uncle LaMont

Regretfully, Jake's uncle, John LaMont Blackham passed away quietly in his sleep, Nov. 29, 2007, in Moroni, Utah. He was born in Moroni, July 8, 1940, to Ernest LaMont Blackham and Olive Olsen. LaMont married the love of his life, Linda Allen, in the Manti LDS Temple, Dec. 19, 1963. They enjoyed almost 44 years together before LaMont sadly passed away. We will miss truly miss his love an influence.

Thanksgiving in Virginia

By now, Connor has become quite the traveler. He's only 7 months old and he's already been on 12 plane rides! This year, we spent Thanksgiving at Grandma and Grandpa Rosvall's house in Richmond, Virginia. We spent a day at the Richmond Metro Zoo; Connor really liked the giraffes.

Connor Has A New Cousin!

We are very excited to hear that Nathan (Jake's brother) and Randi had their baby boy, Tanner LaMont Blackham, on November 12th. Mom and baby are doing very well. We are very excited to have him in our family!

Another Trip to Utah

Since we were already planning on spending the holidays with the my parents, Jake thought it would be fitting to spend the other most important holiday of the year (the opening day of the hunt) with his side of the family in Utah. Of course we dressed Connor in camouflage for the occasion

We also got to carve pumpkins for Halloween! I think Connor thought the pumpkins would talk back. He carried on a conversation with them for quite some time.

6 Months Old!

What a handsom little guy... Jake and I feel so blessed to have Connor in our family. He has filled our lives with so much joy!
