New Job!!!

Hey guys thought Iwould let you all know I got the job at Southwest Ambulance. I'm way excited.



Here are some more way cute pics of Landon :)



Love ya!

Update continued :)

Nothing like putting six months into two blogs :) Micah and I will be better at this.

Landon and I had a lot of errands to run so Maddy and Jaedyn came along to help me watch Landon. We ended making a day out of it. We went to breakfast, the DATC, Salt Lake and we ended up at Temple Square. After Temple Square we had lunch with Micah. It was a ton of fun.





Always so smiley, Aunt Heather took this picture while watching me.


Here are some family pictures from the Young side. We have done these the past three years and we always have a blast, it's fun to get the whole family together and see how much everybody changes from year to year.

Just some extra pics of Landon, he likes licorice, the property and his puppies. And he's a pretty good sleeper, for the most part, he has had a few bad nights.

These pictures were taken today, have our handsome guy. Dang he's cute!!!

Love you guys!!!

Major update on the Nielson Family :)

Hey everybody, I've been checking out everybody's blogs and I love them all. I finally have some time to do this so here goes. Landon is five and a half months old and cuter than ever, he can roll over, sit on his own and he eats baby food now. He is always happy, and loves to watch his cousins. Micah and I can't get enough of him.

Micah is as busy as ever, working full time and the bank and now working part time as a fire fighter/EMT-I. Plus he comes home and tries to do his chores. :) He loves his new job. Also he is a very proud daddy.

Micah and I just bought some property in Fruitland, 15 acres of fun. That is for our whole family to enjoy. This property will be passed down from generation to generation. With the sole purpose being a place to relax, enjoy and to make as many treaserable memories as possible with family and friends. Eventually one day we will also have a cabin on the property, but for now its all about the great outdoors.

So far we've been able to have a picnic with mom and dad. And we went up for a day with Heather and Randy and the girls, 4-wheelin and a picnic. Micah, Landon and I all stayed up for the night it was nice. Can't wait to the get the rest of ya up there.

For me I'm in school taking a couple of classes, teaching for Weber State. I just got a job teaching for the DATC. I'm still working as an EMT for Lagoon and I have an application in for Southwest Ambulance, so we'll see. I love working for all of them. School is a little tough right now but no pain no glory, right?!?

So far Landon has been able to meet his Uncle Mike and Aunt Ashley, they came all the way from Delaware to see him. He loved them. Micah blessed him May 4th.

He has a new cousin Eli. He has grown a ton. His first Fouth of July

Loves to be at family parties... and play with his dad. Also he was there for his

dad's graduation from fire school.

Landon has been a great blessing into our lives, he brings so many smiles!! We love seeing him grow.

Well the camera I've been pulling the pictures off of just died so I guess I'm done for now. I'll get some more pics tonight at Aunt Heather's and charge the battery, so we can show you more of how Landon has grown.

We love you all!

Talk about Slackers!!! :)

Well Landon is 2 months old, and cuter than ever! He really is a great kid, still only wakes up about 1-2 times a night and is more smiley! Also Landon has a new cousin Eli, it's looking like their going to be the best of friends, how exciting!

Micah just graduated from the fire academy, so now we're working on getting him on at a station, which for now is what he really wants to do. So I'm very proud of him.

As for me, I'm just finishing a chemistry class and now starting math and english. Also starting and returning to an old job, Lagoon. Except instead of running the beach I'll be working as an EMT, but I'll still be helping the beach.

Well I guess that's it for now, we're going up to Grandma's and A. Pamie's house for dinner! :)

Love ya!

Landon is here!!!!!

Holly and I now have a beutiful baby boy. Landon was born 3-20-08 at 9:46am. He weighed 7 pounds 5 ounces and was 20.5 inches long. We are excited that he is finally here. :) He is good, he sleeps really good throughout the night. He only wakes up every 4 hours to eat and every 3-4 during the day. He has long fingers and toes and is pretty strong too. Here are some pictures:
The dogs have been great with their new baby brother:
Thank you friends and family for all you support and for visiting us in the hospital and at the house.

A few updates

I passed all my state exams for firefighter. I am now a Firefighter II and I have my HazMat Ops too. The tests were hard. I am glad that they are over with though. We are currently trying to get our house in order for the baby. We are moving out bedroom downstairs and moving hope and joe upstairs. It is quite the task because we are cleaning everything. Carpets, walls, etc. Maybe a little bit of painting. We sold our little red car and bought a 95 GMC Yukon. I love it. We are trying to sell the tacoma so we can get holly something. Hopefully that will happen soon. Well as of right now that is pretty much it.
Holly is doing pretty good with the pregnancy. Landon likes to kick her in the ribs ALOT! Sometimes it hurts :(. She is going to school up at weber. She is taking chemistry online. Its hard. She no longer works at lagoon.
I now work at the Layton branch as the assisstant manager.

Our Babies

Well, Holly and I went to the doctor yesterday and found out that the due date for our little peanut is March 29, 2008 :). How exciting. Here is a picture of the ultra sound. So far it is only 2.03 cm.

Also I forgot to put this up about 2 months ago. We have 2- 4 month old Black Lab/Heeler mix puppies. Here is a Picture of them:

The one on the left is Kayla and the one on the right is Shelby. I will begin training Shelby on August 28th for Search and Rescue with Weber County Sheriff's department. Kayla will be a great house dog. Both are very loving and obedient. Kayla is the snuggle bug of the two.

It's about time!

I've been trying to get Micah to update this for about 5 months, now I'm doing it and have no idea what I'm doing, so here goes.

Micah and I both passed our state exams, so now we are both certified EMT-Intermediates.

Hope and Joe are still with us.

Micah started Fire School last Monday, and they are kicking his butt. Monday and Wednesday nights from 6-10 p.m. and Saturdays 9-5 p.m. Last Saturday they made them get there at 7 a.m. By the end of the night he was falling asleep at Lagoon, helping me. But he seems to be enjoying it so far, I only say that because it's all he talks about when he gets home. :) Good thing though that way I can prepare myself for what is to come.

Our most exciting news though would have to be that we're going to have a baby. Micah is going to be a daddy and he is completely ecstatic, Me?... I'm way nervous and sick, but for the most part excited. When we told everybody they kept telling us to stop lying, it was kind of hard to convince them we were telling the truth, but that has to be the best part so far, is their faces. We're not sure when the big day will be yet, but our first appointment is August 22nd.

Well that's it for now, we'll keep you posted.

Happy late Cinco De Mayo

Just a little FYI:
In addition to its importance in Mexico, Cinco de Mayo is significant to all Americans
because it marks the last time that any foreign power has acted the aggressor on North American soil. The U.S. Census Bureau reported in 2004 that 24 million U.S. residents were of Mexican descent, accounting for nearly 10 percent of America’s population. One of the most interesting Cinco de Mayo celebrations takes place in Chandler, Ariz. Chandler holds annual Chihuahua races and parades. At the end of the day the two most stylish dogs are crowned king and queen of the celebration.

Friday the 13th

The fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskavedekatriaphobia. More than 80 percent of high-rises lack a 13th floor. Many airports skip the 13th gate. Airplanes have no 13th aisle. Hospitals and hotels regularly have no room number 13. Many cities do not have a 13th Street or a 13th Avenue. Jack the Ripper, Charles Manson, Jeffrey Dahmer, Theodore Bundy and Albert De Salvo all have 13 letters in their names.

April Fools

The commonly accepted origin of April Fool's Day involves changes in the calendar. At one time, the New Year celebration began on March 25 and ended on April 1. However, in 1582,
King Charles IX adopted the Gregorian calendar and accepted the beginning of the new year as January 1. Those who refused to acknowledge the new date or simply forgot received foolish gifts and invitations to nonexistent parties. The butt of such a prank was known as a "poisson d'avril" or "April fish." French children sometimes tape a picture of a fish on the back of their schoolmates, crying "Poisson d'Avril" when the prank is discovered. In Scotland, for example, April Fool's Day is actually celebrated for two days. The second day is devoted to pranks involving the posterior region of the body. It is called Taily Day. The origin of the "kick me" sign can be traced to this observance.

Great News! :)

Well Holly and I have great news...............................Ha! You might be thinking that we are pregnant............................So are we?.................................No! he he he. We passed our EMT-I class at the DATC. We did 2 practical exams and 1 written exam. The 2 practical's were: one adult cardiac arrest and one pediatric major illness. Well we passed and now are able to go take the State Exam and hopefully pass there. We will be sure to let you guys know.

Hope and Jo moved in with us. It is fun and different at the same time. Were not used to having 2 other people living with us and a dog. It has been a real blessing for us having them here though. They have both helped out a ton. Hope has decided to go back to school and get her Phlebotomy certification. Jo is working on getting his GED and then become a Police Officer.

Snowmobiling

Well I took Holly snowmobiling for her first time. It was a lot of fun and we will do it again. We went to Monte Cristo. I was really surprised at how there was not a lot of snow up there. We were going to go to Hardware Ranch but I did not think that there was enough snow to go off the trail and play. Even on top of Monte there was barely enough to get off and play. Here are some pics:
Here's Holly:

A view from on top of Monte:

Here is me:
Here is a nice picture from the parking lot:

Well that was our little trip. Holly is finally done with working at Bath and Body Works. :) We are so excited. It is nice to be able to see each other more. I finished the office, I patched a lot of holes, painted it, and finally got the room set up and boxes gone through. I know after living here for 4 months you would expect almost every room done. Well that would be nice. I am sure that from a year from now I will have a box from the move that I have not gone through. Well I am tired and am going to bed now. Good night never never land.
