So....

So I just thought I would update on everyone! There isn't much but here goes!

Dad is doing good. Still has problems with his leg off and on and has to put itch cream on it all the time. He has been trying to find time to work on the house but every time he plans on it something always comes up! The last thing was me wanting him to come to Salt Lake with Ashley, Rebecca, and myself to go to Temple Square. I will post pictures that Ashley took later after I get them onto the computer. That is about all with Dad.

Jonathan has been snowmobiling a couple of times up wolf creek and has been working on a truck on his days off. Other than that and working, nothing new!

Nathan just bought a fiero car since his truck had to go back. He will have to fix it up but it is the same age as he is!! I guess he is excited about it! He eats regularly now so whatever was wrong with his stomach is gone now. He does need to go to the chiropractor because his neck bothers him all the time, he sleeps on a heating pad every night.

David is not looking forward to leaving in a couple of weeks to Texas for basic training. He and Miranda will be apart so that is why. He quit his job a couple of weeks ago so doesn't do much in the way of leaving the house. He does help me out be it small favors around the house or riding with me somewhere to entertain Rebecca in the truck. He has been shaving each day to get prepared for basic and goes running most days.

Samuel is still getting strait A's. He is performing for choir on Monday playing the part of Sweeney Todd. I don't know if you have seen the movie but I will make sure that I get pictures and video of it and post it for all to see. He goes to missionary prep class every Tuesday morning.

Kevin got traded to being on the same side of the oil field as Dad and actually is dad's relief when he is off. He has made many changes on how he acts and treats people so that is awesome!

Ashley is got OK grades. She could try harder if she wanted to but getting her to put in the effort is not easy. She said that her visit to Temple square was nice but nothing else was said. She had asked a week ago what Kevin thought about her getting baptised and he said he would support her but to make sure that it was for her and not someone else. He also said that she should wait for Adrian to be home for a visit. She said that is what she planned. The next day she didn't go to church and sent a note to a lady in the church. She talked like she was going to get baptized but then doesn't want to go to church, mutual, or even have the missionaries over anymore. I don't know what to do, any suggestions??

Rebecca is getting bigger and bigger! She sleeps in her bassinet instead of in the bed with Kevin and myself since the 9Th of February. She still doesn't sleep through the night but is sleeping about 4to 5 hours before she wakes up the first time. She is still in new born cloths but getting close to growing out of some of them! I will of course post more pictures of her soon!! She is trying to push out a tooth and is also trying to roll over!

I am struggling to clean house and was cloths. I spend all of my time entertaining Rebecca! I don't mind it but everyone else does since dinner is not served by 6pm anymore! I know longer have a church calling so I get to go to classes except during one of them it is time to feed Rebecca so I miss most of it. I enjoyed Temple Square and plan on going to Salt Lake Temple in June to do my endowments. I am super excited for that and for anyone that will be here during that time are welcome to come with me!!

Adrian is still in Iraq but calls everyday. I enjoy talking to him except he calls either when I am feeding Rebecca or while he is playing a video game so it makes it difficult to hear him. We will be sending him a second care package in the next couple of days. The first one had some of my homemade brownies in them and he had them gone withing 24 hours of getting the package! I guess they were good.


That is all that is new here. I will post with pictures soon!!!

Rebecca is 3 Months!!!

As you can see, she still likes to try to block the picture!!! She is so adorable!! She is now weighing in at 9lbs. 11oz. as of about 4 days ago! I used a tape measure and she is around 21 inches! She is getting big! She is still in newborn cloths but some are starting to get small on her. She also still wears newborn diapers! I love that she is going on 4 months old and is still so small! It is awesome!

Below is one that I find to be just adorable! We gave her a sucker to just hold on to! She had a good grip on it!

Amy, I think she will be joining Kaya in the sucker rehab!!

The wrapper was on it at the time so she didn't get to taste it but she obviously has the right idea!


I love this dress but it is a sleeveless one and so I have been trying to find a sweater to cover the sleeves so that she could wear it since it is winter! I found this one but it went with another dress. I had to buy the dress obviously but I am not sure that she will wear it, I don;t like the dress that it came with! It works beautifully with this dress though!!!


We went to Tylee Taylor's blessing a week ago. Tylee is Daniel and Kayla's little girl. She was born almost three weeks after Rebecca was born though it doesn't look like it at all!! She is a total cutie but much bigger than Rebecca!!


I just threw this one in just to show everyone how good Nathan is looking since shaving all of his facial hairs off!!


Oh, I don't know if any of you have heard about this but Kevin decided to have me cut his hair a couple weeks back!! I think it looks much better than what it did when he had the long hair. If he has it combed it looks better but you can get a good idea of its looks as it is here. He doesn't like it at all and thinks that it is more important that he like the way that he looks than me! I think it is important to like what you look like but I also feel that it is important that your spouse like what you look like also!

This one below is of Rebecca on Valentine's Day! She was very happy as you can see and this dress just looks so cute on her!!

She got this teddy bear for Valentine's Day and she does like it though her expression does not show it! She was tired of wearing the dress and was ready to get comfy! Still cute though!

These next two are of her as of today! She got a bumbo seat yesterday so we tried her out in it!! She really likes it a lot!!

We also got her a pair of sunglasses and she is just to cute in them! I have a picture on my phone that I took of her that has a huge smile but this is a cute one also!!

Well that is Rebecca at three months!!!
