Booga! Push The BUTTON!!!!!

This morning I decided to clean out my car. This is one of Dane's favorite things to "help" me with. I let him sit in the car with me and push all the neat buttons in the car. He is usually most interested in the hazard lights and the interior lights buttons. Not today!!

I gathered all the trash that was in the front seat of the car, I then had to get out of the car to get into the back seat to clean up. And that is when it all happened!! My leg hit the front door and slammed it shut, in that VERY SECOND Dane decided to find the lock button and lock himself in the car. No problem, I'll just go get the keys. Oh WAIT!! The keys are in the car with him!!! OH NO!!!! Are any of the windows down??? NOPE!! (Don't worry, our car was in the garage which is pretty cool, so no heat problem). I haven't started panicking yet, in fact I think it is kind of funny, Mostly because Dane is having such a good time!!

I call Scott, tell him I'm in a pickle. Tell him what the pickle is!! He laughs but there is an edge of nervousness. He says there is a cop that lives by us, or call a locksmith if Dane won't push the button in 15 minutes.

I run inside and find a hanger...I don't know why! I have seen my brothers grab hangers in these situations and have success, but I never paid enough attention to know what they did. Hanger idea, bad idea!

I start yelling through the car window..."Booga!!! Push the button!!!" I have my finger pressed against the window pointing down at the button. He looks at me, understands me, and presses his cute little finger against my finger on the other side of the glass. Pleased with himself for doing what I said, he moved on to more interesting things. He looks around and finds a pack of gum. He unwraps a piece and shows it to me, smiles and says "YUUUMMMM!" Eats it. Unwraps another piece and another and eats them all until he has eaten the whole pack of gum. 15 pieces!

I keep encouraging him to push the button, (my finger is still pressed against the window. I'm trying to show him where the button is!!!). He starts pushing every button he can see. The eject button to the CD player. A cd comes out and he thinks that is pretty cool! All the interior lights. He finds the Ipod...buttons!!! You can tell that he is proud of himself for pushing all the buttons. Just like Mama said!!

I see the keys in the cup holder. "Booga!! Get the KEYS!!" He finds the mail key. Picks it up and shows it to me! Got it Mom!! "Get the other keys!! With the buttons!!" He looks around, he sees no other keys and shows me the mail key again. "Mail?"

This goes on and on! I'm starting to panic a little. I close the garage door to block out some of the heat. ( And to "close" the pickley situation to any neighbors that might be watching!) I continue to yell about the keys and the button...nothing.

I say a little prayer. Dane finds the keys in the cup holder! "BOOGA!!! PUSH THE BUTTON!!" He pushes the most interesting button the key chain. THE RED ONE!! The ugly alarm goes off and scares him a little. He pushes the red button again to turn it off. Now it is a game. On and off, on and off with the alarm for 5 min!! (It was probably only 1 min). "Push the OTHER BUTTON" I am prepared with my hand on the door handle in Superwoman style! HE PUSHES IT!! I open the door and grab him and say "Good Job!!" He laughs and runs away never knowing that he was trapped!

PHEW!!!

These pictures were taken after the fact.

Oh look!! Buttons!! These are the buttons I was trying to get him to push!!! Now he knows where they are!Running off to the next adventure!

Cheese Man

Anyone who knows Scott knows that he loves cheese!! I mean LOVES cheese!! The other day he went to the Farmers Market and there were some people there selling homemade cheese. That got him thinking...."this is my calling." Right when he got home he sat at the compy until he found what he was looking for, a cheese recipe that he could do RIGHT THEN AND THERE!!! Here is the recipe:
1 qt whole milk
1 cup buttermilk
2 t lemon juice
salt to taste

-Laddle curds into cheesecloth in colander
-Tie off and let hang for 30 min
-Add salt to taste, and whatever else you want!!!
-Refridgerate overnight

Draining

This is the sage and blach pepper...it is really good!

P.S. This is a SOFT cheese! Good on crackers!

Zoo Day!

A few weeks ago for Scott's birthday we went to Hogle Zoo with Matt, Katie, Portia, and Kirk! It was a lot of fun. Dane's first time at the Zoo Danr and aunt Katie on the see-saw

He liked looking through the tunnel, but was too scared to go through.

I love this picture of Portia.

This one too!!

Dane and Papi!

Portia licking the globe!

Papi!

Kirk tried to get as messy as Dane for the picture! Funny grandpa!

Sad And Funny!

Dane had this crazy cough/fever. Because of his sore throat, he didn't have an appetite and would barely drink anything either. So in an effort to get my son to drink something so he wouldn't be dehydrated, I mixed up some crystal light (some red flavor). He liked it!! Finally something in his tummy! But he was really grumpy and it was about his nap-time. I put him down with his red drink because he wouldn't part with it, and I got in the shower. About 20 min later he was crying and I went in to check on him and this is what he looked like!!! Apparently his cough was so bad that he threw up! While he was on his back in his crib! I was so sad for him, but on the other hand, I had to take a picture! I think it will make him laugh when he is older!!

There is more. I had to take him to the doctor about an hour later and below is what he looked like at the doctors office! That stuff stains! Needless to say the doctor thought it was really funny! I forgot to take a picture of the back of his head!! His hair is pink!! It still is and this happened a week ago!!!

You can see that his tears were the only thing powerful enough to wash it off!! So cute!

Valentines

Last year we started the 1st annual "Jorgensen Valentine Outing" in Salt Lake. This year we brought it to St. George. This was our beautiful desert! There was also a pot of chocolate fondue to dip it in!

This is a raw NY steak on a REALLY HOT rock! You cut it into bite-sized pieces and cook it yourself.

Love

Kirk enjoying his steak!

Matt and Katie!

Big boys with their babies!

This is Scott with his best friend Chris. It was baby Kaitlyn's baby blessing. I think this is such a cute picture!

Chris this is for you!

For my birthday Scott got a jeep. ( I don't know how he pulled that off!) He has wanted a jeep his whole life...he got a really cool one! Now Scott and his two best friends Chris and Braden all have jeeps! I wish I had a picture of all three of them in front of their jeeps!

Birthday!!

Yesterday was my birthday and Scott and I went out to dinner with Chase and Melissa! It was a lot of fun!

Random Blog!

These are random pictures taken in the last few weeks. There is no theme to this blog...just random! Dane after he woke up from a nap! He is always so sweet when he wakes up!

Scott let Dane try a "war head" candy! SUPER SOUR!!! Awesome reaction!

Having a great time swinging at the park!

Scott taking my dad on a helicopter ride!

Scott was trying not to smile! I think this counts as a smile!

Boogie had some Grandma and Grandpa time at the airport waiting for a helicopter ride!!

This is a prime rib that my parents bought. It was so good! You "wrap" it in salt and roast it in the oven. When it is done you hammer through the salt!

Scott was dertermined not to smile! Boggie is so cute!

For Christmas this year Dane got balloons. He loves balloons and since he still doesn't really understand the whole Christmas thing, we just put a bunch of balloons all over the living room for when he woke up in the morning! He came out saying "BA BA BAA!"

Christmas Pictures and more on their way!

I got the best Christmas gift this year and I haven't quite figured it out yet! It is the SWEETEST camera! My brother-in-law Bodie (www.bodwa.com) has a photography business and he upgraded to a new camera...So I got his old one!!!!! It is really complex and so so so cool! I have actually taken a ton of pics but I haven't figured out how to get them on the compy! They are coming though!
