Boy oh Boy!

We are excited to welcome a baby boy to our family! We couldn't be happier! I am so excited to be feeling better and to be able to start planning and shopping!  Our new adventure and bundle of joy is to arrive around February 2nd! 20 weeks down, 20 to go :)

Lake Powell

At the end of July we had the chance to go to Lake Powell with my whole family and had a great time!
(Just a couple of the 700 pics we took while at the lake!  Click to enlarge)

Cousin Time
 These two were attached at the hip. It was pretty cute to watch.

Girl Time
Lots of nails painted, and relaxing in the sun.

 Guy Time
Muscles and Mohawks

Family Time 
 We loved kayaking, paddle boarding, sea-dooing, and riding on the boat together.

Air Time
Matthew got some awesome air and even Brooklyn learned to "ski" on the paddle board.

Sneak Peak


We just got some pictures taken of Brooklyn at fotofly, and I am SUPER excited about them!  I am waiting for them to be uploaded to their website and will post some more as soon as they are.  Isn't she beautiful?!

Happy Anniversary/Mother's Day!

Matthew and I celebrated 4 years together on May 10th.  It is pretty amazing to look back on the past four years and see how much we have grown individually and especially as a couple.  Getting engaged is kind of scary because you don't actually know what you are getting into.  You can date someone for as long as you want, but you don't truly know everything about them until you are married.  I have to say, I hit the jackpot! Matthew is so smart, caring, encouraging, inspiring, attractive, and funny!  I love that he still makes me laugh with his sarcasm and corny jokes, and that I can love him more and more each day. It has been a tradition to watch our wedding video on our anniversary, and while that was such a great day for us, I wouldn't change the last four years for anything.   
 Sadly, the only picture we have together that day.  (Probably the least flattering picture I have taken in a long time.)



On the way to La Jolla Grove in the Riverwoods.  Our food was so delicious and even better because I didn't have to make it!

Matthew had a super busy day on Sunday.  He made me waffles for breakfast, gave a talk in church (which he did awesome at), followed by teaching Sunday School, and then came home to make me dinner.  He made filet mignon with mashed potatoes, asparagus and rolls.  I am one spoiled woman.  

(Kisses from me and Brooklyn!)
Brooklyn was super happy all day and made my Mother's Day wonderful!  She did great in nursery again, and all day long she kept saying, "yuv you." (Love you)  So precious.  I love being a mommy!

Nursery

This little sweet pea went to nursery for the first time today!  She did great!  As soon as she saw all the toys and other kids, she was clueless to the fact that we were still in the room.  When I went to pick her up, she looked at me and then just kept playing.  She is such a social little butterfly and I love it!  Doesn't she just look old in this picture?

Easter Fun!

It was so fun to celebrate Easter this year because Brooklyn was old enough to search for eggs and be excited about the stuff in her Easter basket!  She caught on really quickly and got super excited when she found out there was actually something inside the eggs!  She didn't wait for me to take the foil off of her chocolate, she just stuck the whole thing in her mouth.  
For dinner we had lots of family over and shared some delicious ham, au gratin potatoes, asparagus and orange rolls.  I had fun setting the table and hosting such a nice meal.  
What a great time to celebrate the resurrection of our Savior.  The weather has been beautiful, our flowers are blooming and I get to start my garden.  It is my favorite time of year!

It's About Time

A couple weeks ago Brooklyn was very adamant about getting dressed all by herself.  She ended up with two pairs of pants, a shirt (on her leg) and one around her neck.  It took her 30 mins. to get dressed and was so funny to watch.
 Here she is finally dressed!  The next day she wanted to put on her own shoes (two different ones, but they are on the right feet) and she added the hat too!
Here are just a couple of shots at random.  She is so happy when she wakes up :)  In the top right one she is eating a strawberry...her favorite!
 And yes...I am one of those people who only post about their kids, but when you have a daughter who is this cute, who can blame me?!
Happy Spring!

Little Miss Lady

Ignore the crazy hair and no clothes.  I thought she would make a mess.
I should have known better.  Brooklyn has always been a lady when it comes to messes; very clean and proper.
