Fall Fun!

This Sunday we spontaneously decided to take a drive up the canyon and take some fall pictures! So glad we did. It was so pretty and we got a few great pictures!

Sooo Funny

So Halle had a really big day yesterday and today. She stayed the night at my moms house and had soo much fun that she didn't take any naps. Tonight I put her in her jumpy and she started rocking herself to sleep! Cutest thing ever.

Happy Birthday!

Its my hubby's 25th birthday this Sunday! We had a blast spending the night in Salt Lake. My mom watched my little precious, so we had the whole night to do what ever Jason wanted! We ended up eating at the Cheese Cake Factory, sooo yummy! Then we decided since we NEVER get to go out to the movies these days, why not catch a late movie at the theater. We ended up seeing the Wall Street Movie. I really liked it. It was so much fun! We stayed up so late that night, but we had so much fun. Happy Birthday my Hubby!




ha ha so the funny story of the night was that as we were seated at our table we look over and its Jason's brother and his wife at the table right next to us! They live in Layton and so it was totally random that they were here at the exact same time as us! So they joined us for his birthday dinner. It was so much fun.



Love you babe!

Well i'm pretty bored, so I thought I would post some pictures from today! and a video! I put Halle in her highchair for the first time and she loved it! It helped her eat better too! Halle really hates eating from a spoon. I started trying to feed her by spoon when she was 4 months old. She is now 7 1/2 months old and has only proggressed a little! I can maybe get her to finish a little jar every once in a while! She is so difficult when it comes to eating. Here is a fun video I took of her today.

after!

she was such a mess she needed a bath!

all done......

Some day i will have one of these.....

Right now we have a Mazda 6. We bought it when we got married and was very excited about it. Well now it just isn't big enough. The car seat barely fits and we feel very crammed! We have been looking at SUV's for a long time and this one has caught our eye.... we love it. It is the cheapest 7 passenger we've found. Yes i want a 7 passenger because i want this to be our forever car, so it needs to seat alot of kids! ha ha.
Well I'm also determined to always pay cash for our vehicles! I never want to have debt. We are doing totally awesome right now. We paid off our car a month ago and it wasn't easy because we had still owed like 7000, so we totally decided one day to just pay it off out of our savings and it felt soo good not to be in debt anymore!
Anyways, so when you see me driving this car someday, its because we paid CASH for it! Hopefully it happens in a year or so... so right now i'll just imagine that I'm driving an SUV while i drive my little mazda 6..... ha ha

Summer Time!

I love Summer time! This is whats been going on....

The Good Life

Totally relaxed and chilling in her stroller at grandmas house!

Halle LOVES her jumpy!

Always chewing on those fingers....

Halle is so excited to play this piano! Isn't this piano the cutest thing ever!???

Just Sayin....

I just have to say that....... I CANT WAIT for Jamaica! I cant wait to spend all day and all night with my husband for 6 whole days! He has been soooo busy with his schooling and work. I hardly even get to TALK to him. Uggghh it gets really hard sometimes.

On the other hand... i am freaking out about leaving my BABY! Some days I have total melt downs and cry all day long at the thought of leaving her. We booked this vacation almost a year ago and I knew it was going to be hard, but I had no idea it was going to be this hard for me. I know I need this break to recharge my batteries, but i feel like such a bad mom for leaving her.

Well, she wont remember when she's older right?!!!

I'll update with pictures when we get back!

New Toy!

Last week I bought this toy for Halle. I was desperate to find something that would entertain her because she now hates her bouncer! She used to sit in her bouncer and watch tv but she's decided that's too boring! I have this video of her when she was trying it out for the second time. In this video she was a little cranky about it, but now she will stay in it for an hour! She jumps and jumps and cracks herself up! It is seriously the cutest thing to watch. I'll have to get a video of her when she's really happy in it.

Ski Day!

On Friday my husband took me skiing and it was so nice to spend the day with him! It had been more than 3 years since the last time I'd been and it definitely was an adventure! I had a hard time the first run, but after that I started doing pretty good. Here are some pictures and some fun video's we were able to take.

Update....

So, life is going really good right now. I am loving being a mom! I LOVE taking care of my baby. It is the best job in the WORLD! She is also sleeping through the night and it is absolutely wonderful. She is sleeping up to 11 hours! LOVE it! She is getting older and developing such a cute personality. She is trying to talk a lot! It is sooo cute all the cooing noises she makes. A couple weeks ago we had a photo shoot with Halle. It was really exhausting trying to get photos of her. But we did accomplish it 3 hours later.... We also went back yesterday to finish them. Here is some of what we have so far....
