What I Love About Johnny and Jack

Johnny finishes paramedic school this week and I was just thinking about all the hard work and dedication he puts into everything he does. On Friday he graduates from UVU-UFRA Paramedic program. I am so glad that he was able to make it through this program! It was a rough start and he got going with it a few days late because of some complications with another fire department. Then it got a little rocky when I had Jack and Johnny was supposed to be spending every night down in Orem because he had HUGE tests coming up! He made it through and is doing so well!

Johnny starts with Eagle Mountain Fire Department on August 2nd. We are both so excited that he will be working at a full time job! We will be able to save money to move into a house later. Even though his schedule isn't normal, it is great because it gives him the wonderful opportunity of watching Jack when I head back to work in the fall.

Johnny is so good with Jack! He does things that I would never think of to make him smile. Jack cried a lot, all day everyday when he was little and Johnny was patient and would carry him around while I was sick in bed. Now Johnny is so good to hold him or watch him while I get ready or cook dinner. Johnny can make him giggle! Johnny is also getting better at being drooled on, pooped on, spit-up on, peed on, and sneezed on. It takes a little getting used to I guess.

I love Johnny so much and appreciate everything he does. He is such a wonderful husband and great support to me.

Jack is great because:
  • When I walk into the room he gives me a big smile with his whole body!
  • He is learning so many new things all the time and the surprise on his face when he does something new is so precious!
  • He cuddles so close to me any time of the day!
  • He is almost always moving and figuring out how to move his arms and legs!
  • He loves taking naps with Mommy!
  • He has huge hands and feet! It reminds me of a puppy that needs to grow into his paws!
  • His ears are different shapes!
  • Not that this is great, but we have not found a diaper that contains what Jack puts out!
  • Every noise he makes is so loud!
  • There are so many other reasons but, most of all he is great because he looks like his daddy!
