Bye Bye Bottles....

So over the past couple months, we have been slowly throwing Kella's bottles away. They were getting to the point that she needed new ones or new nipples for them or something, and I just didn't want to go spend more money on ANOTHER bottle. So we were down to the last one a couple days ago, and I washing it to give to her, and decided to just throw it away too. SO WE ARE DOWN TO JUST SIPPY CUPS! YAY. She has done pretty good, the only time she misses it is the morning. She gets pretty MAD when you walk in her room with a SIPPY CUP.. It's pretty funny. She's so cute and so fun. Sorry baby girl, but mommy had too!

St.George

We went to St.george a couple weeks ago. I forgot how much I LOVE it there. we went for a little hike, and the girls had sooo much fun in the 60 degree weather! These pictures aren't the best, I forgot my camera, so they are off of preston's phone. Anyways- LOVE it there.

bumps and bruises

This age is soo fun,but so sad sometimes. She is walking, and IN TO EVERYTHING! along with that, she falls alot. down the stairs. she only fell about 4 stairs, and it was a tumble! poor little thing! good thing she's cute! =)

Kids.

Kella LOVED her birthday cake...she was sooo funny! And then, of course, I had to take a cute picture of lilee magoo too! here's a couple pics!

It is your birthday, shout HORRAY!

I seriously CAN NOT believe this last year has gone by sooo fast! FOR REALS! Anyways- we love you kella, and couldn't live life without you sweet girl. We love you so much, and can't wait to see how you grow and learn this next year. Happy Birthday Baby girl.

Before....After

I'm so glad my husband has an eye for pretty things. He lays tile, and things are really slow right now, so he decided to RIP out my bathroom, and make us a new shower/floor....it turned out soo great! I LOVE it. Now I just wish we could find some cute...(cheap) things to decorate it...some new rugs, towels, ya know, I want it all....a glass door would be nice too...(someday). Anyways- I just wanted to show off his BEAUTIFUL work. Thanks babe, it couldn't be better!

I want to make my front door look like this.....

1.1.11

Im so excited for a new year. A fresh start is just what I need. I feel like 2010 was sooo extremly busy, and Im ready for things to slow down alittle. HaPpY nEw YeAr everyone!!!

and her.

Love her.

These two...

These two are my little muffins....who keep me on my toes. Kella is now 10 months old, and she's all over the place. She's not walking yet, but she is such a busy body! We love her so much, and is such a bright, happy child to have in our home. Lilee, is a fiesty, sassy, such a sweet girl. She has a great heart, and is super smart. This girl knows what she wants and isn't afraid to get it. Sometimes this results in major tantrums, lots of crying, and complete craziness. But this is what makes Lilee- Lilee. She is one sassy chick, and I don't know what I would do without her in our lives. She is such a great girl! I love them soo much!

Just ordered my christmas cards from Shutterfly! Im so excited! They will be sooo cute! anyways- thought I'd let you all know that it really did work, and it saved me like 62.00. I had to pay like 8 dollars for shipping is all! WOOOWHOOO

Shutterfly christmas cards...

So every year I make my own christmas cards, but this year I am so excited because I was looking on Shutterfly's website, and they have the CUTEST Christmas cards, and they are giving bloggers an opportunity to get 50 FREE cards this year. I have used Shutterfly before in the past, I made a book from my Alaska trip, and it's so awesome. The quailty is great, and I can't wait to use them this year for my christmas cards. I would probably end up using them anyway, even if they weren't giving this promotion, because my life is sooo busy this year, and they are SUPER DUPER cute! They have quite a few cards that I love...now I just need to pick which one to use! Here is one of favorites...
