Lilee was sooo excited this year! It was so much fun to watch her open her presents, and see what santa brought her! Here are few pics...Our Santa Cookies, with a carrot for Rudolph, Her Doll house santa brought her, and standing in front of our tree, before going to bed on christmas eve.

for our soon to be little "lady"

We have been trying to get the baby's room put together, and it still has a long way to go, but I just wanted to post some pics of the progress...it's going to be soo cute! Love it! Here's some pics.....

Our little "deer"

Lilee had a little christmas program at her school today, and she did soooo good, and was sooo cute! Here's a couple pictures of her...

Time flies...

Im sitting here thinking about the last 6 years of my life, and all that has happened, and it kind of blows me away at how fast time flies. I know I say that alot, but it truely does for me. The past six years I have met my husband, got married, had Lilee, was able to quit my job, be a stay at home mom and wife (which I wouldn't trade for the world) Im able to do hair at home, we bought our first home over four years ago, and now we are having our second child. Alot more has happened in this time, but the basics are covered. Im so grateful for everything I have in my life. A hard working husband who supports me unconditionally, who does his best to give our family the things that it needs. We have a nice home, running vehicles, "almost" two beautiful children, and it might not always be easy, but it's for sure worth it. I wouldn't trade anything in the world for being able to stay at home with my children right now, Im so lucky to be able to have the opportunity. Right now, my heart is full, as I think about how truely blessed my little family is, even though somedays we take it for granted. Thank you Preston for all you do for us, I appreciate you more than you will ever know. We Love you!

my baby is growing up

Santa Claus is coming to town!

Yesterday we went and saw Santa, and boy was Lilee EXCITED! She has cried her eyes out every year, but this year she was on cloud 9! She told him she wanted a doll house and crayons! hehehehe. It was so cute. This picture was taken with my cell phone of the actual santa picture, so the quality really sucks, but wanted to post it anyway! It was sooooo cute!

We know how to ROCK it!!!

Oh Christmas Tree....

I decided to put my christmas tree up alittle early because my cousin took Lilee to her house in vernal for a few days...so I decided while I didn't my little "helper" I would hurry and do it! It turned out cute! Here's a peek.

Lilee and I on halloween! How fun, she loved it so much!!!

Leaves are falling....

Fall is my favorite time of year, and we personally have only one tree in our yard, that isn't very big yet. But we sure have a TON of leaves to clean up every year from the neighbors....and boy is it a PAIN! The only good thing about it is that Lilee thinks they are sooo NEAT! Anyways- here's a few pictures I captured of her playing in them!

Halloween Happenings....

Mindy and I went to St.George this weekend, and went and saw Thriller! It was a ton of fun, and it was a great weekend to just not have alot to do, and be able to just hang out! A great girlfriend getaway! Anyway- no matter how many times you've been to thriller, those dang zombies are still CREEPY! This one climbed on my lap, and was sorta scary! = /

And then, when I got home, Lilee had to show me her halloween costume that my step mom bought for her, accompanied by her cute mermaid wig we got for her! hehehhe. Just alittle sneak peek! = )

so glad she's mine....

picking a name.....

So, in May there was a people magazine out, and it had a bunch of celebrity babies in it, and this little girl was one of them...her name is Ever,and I absolutely fell in love with the name when I saw it! I really want to name my little girl Ever, and Preston is actually starting to like it, but it's such a different name, that it has so many different reactions when I say it to people. Most people like it, but I admit, it's different and takes some time to grow on you. I am wanting to name her Ever, but would love some suggestions, because it's not set in stone, and Im the type that wants to know RIGHT NOW what my babies name is! hehehehe. So if you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear some!

Time flies....

I haven't posted about this, because Im not sure what to say...Two days ago on September 13th, was three months since my mom has passed away. I was going to make a post then, but it's one of those things you don't really know how to write what you are feeling. But I just wanted to say, the last three months have been bitter sweet. My mom was very sick, and I was so grateful for the time we had to spend together, but when the moment came, that was her last, there was nothing I could do to make her better. I miss her so much, sometimes I go to pick up the phone to call her, and then I realize I can no longer do that. It has been a strange feeling to not have a mom to talk to everyday. I just wanted to post something on here, because I never have, and I feel like I've just avoided the subject for three months now. I love you mom, and we all miss you so much!

Sold.......

My puppies are officially sold! Im excited, but sad too. So next week at this time, I will be puppyless....
