DON'T MIND THE OUT OF ORDER

I have been catching up and finding old drafts that for some reason were never published.. I am making sure they are posted so I have everything documented.


be on the look out for Eastons's 1 year post

4 months

I can't believe its been 4 months already. Where did the time go. My little man isnt so little any more. He is sucking his thumb more often and still loves his binkie too. He has a new love for baby tiger (which use to be mine from my tiger collection) He loves his snuggie blanket his Aunti Lala made him. He loves to laugh and giggle and has learned how to grab things and pick them up and put anything in his mouth. His favorite thing to chew on is his Elephant rattle and his alphabet rings. He has traveled to Utah, Wyomining and Bear Lake Utah this month. He got to meet his Great Grandma Shirley who just loved holding him and making him smile. He meet lots of cousins and just loved everyone and all the new faces. He really isnt a fan of the car or his carseat anymore since all the road trips. He got to see his first snow and realized he doesnt like being cold at all. We gave him a piece of snow to hold and he freaked out and dropped it, funny reaction, bad parents hehe.

Weight 16 lbs
height 25 inches

He still eats every 2.5 hours and gets a tablespoon of rice cereal for breakfast and he loves it. He has been trying to roll from his back to belly and he almost has it until he gets his arm stuck underneath him. He can still roll tummy to back and still hate tummy time. He loves his doggy Sadie, he has learned how to grab onto her fur and will grab her ears and neck and pull her to him to give him kisses and of course Sadie wants to kiss him back. When Easton is crying and we can't get to him fast enough Sadie will rush over and kiss him and Easton calms down when he sees her. They will grow up to be the best of buddies  I just know it..

lots of catching up to do Easotn 9 months and Easter

I will be doing insurance transfers with with a track plan of getting into the management training program. I am looking forward to this new job. Its a very family oriented company, better hours ( home by 430p) and better pay of course. Braden is still at Wells Fargo as a Branch Manager and is enjoying the daily challanges his job presents.

I love that he keeps me on my toes and I am so excited to plan his first birthday in just 4 short months. It will be an EPIC event.

old post i found that never got posted Christmas 2011 in Holbrook

We ventured to Holbrook for Christmas this year. All the Hatch kids were home. Stratton was home from basic and it was really nice having him there and catching up with him and Jessica.. We got to have Grandma Beverly home this year. It was so much fun learning some the Hatch "traditions".


Holbrook Christmas 2011

This year we spent our very first Christmas in Holbrook. The trip festivities consisted of me working half day on the 23rd and having 24th off.. I was left to pack the car as Braden had to work till 2p.
So i had to pack my bag, bradens bag, Easton 2 bags,Sadie’s bag and ALL the presents and Easton's bouncer, bumbo and lots of blankets.

 Now usually Braden packs the car the night before and then I head up to his work and pick him up and we start our drive, well this trip I HAD to pack the car... it was pure adventure..Not sure how I made it all fit but I did even with room for Sadie and Easton.
It's always a fun adventure when I have to drive with Easton and Sadie to go get Braden for our drives to Holbrook. This time on our way up thru Bush Hwy Sadie decided she didn’t like all the up and down and curves and decided to get sick for 2 hours tillwe got to Payson, we stopped let her out of the car, got gas, feed Easton and gave Sadie some Benadryl (which we normally don’t leave home without for Sadie- but this time we forgot it) once she got that she was ok and we made it the rest of the way to Holbrook without a car/motion sick dog. Sadie loves Grandma Loni's house because she a huge huge backyard and she can lap it, well this time it had partial snow on the grass and it was fun to watch her outside because she would jump over the snow so she wouldn’t haveto walk thru it.. It’s always a great time for Sadie
Christmas Eve, Blaine lots of yummy tapas’ (hatch tradition on Christmas Eve) which was amazing as usual, did the family (both sides) tradition of Christmas Eve jammies and of course Easton got some too ( which are 6 months and too small ) and then wewatched A Christmas Story. Christmas Day was on Sunday so we got to attend 1 hour of church and come home and change back into our jammies and open our stockings and presents, Easton didn’t know at first what to do with his but once he figured it out he startedgrabbing everything he could and then we layer them all on the floor and he was overwhelmed, but loved all his stocking stuff Santa got for him, he decided that was enough fun for him and took a nap. We all opened our Christmas presents and got lots of funstuff, I got some new diamond earring from Kay and Braden got is new Call of Duty game(which he didn’t think he would get, cause i don’t like it). There were lots of fun amazing presents. Then Easton realized he was missing out on all the fun and wanted tojoin the party. Braden and I helped him open a few presents and once he got his little hands on the paper he would tear it and try to eat it.. To speed things up, each person got to help him open the rest of the presents. Santa and Mommy and Daddy spoiled him,but he was such a good boy he deserved it all. Bradens favorite part of Christmas, besides playing with all his new toys is the breakfast tradition of Risengrynsgrot ( a type of Rice pudding with lots of butter cream sugar and cinnamon and one white almond)- whoever gets the almond will have good luck till next Christmas and this year Jessica got it (perfect cause she is in nursing school) and ebelskivers- these are too die for .. I can eat them forever. Christmas this year was amazing, granted I didn’t get mywhite Christmas  I still had snow which made me a very happy girl. I didn’t get a chance to get our Christmas card out so her it is.

 MERRY CHRISTMAS LOVE THE HATCH FAMILY
