Pictures

My friend Amanda took these adorable pictures. Picture day is always a stressful day but they turned out great. Thanks Amanda

I am still here!

Well I haven't posted for a LONG time but hopefully I can get on the ball and do a little better! Halloween has come and gone as well as Thanksgiving and now Christmas is almost here. This year has flown by. For Halloween, Jacie was Cinderella. She wanted to be a blue princess, I was very excited when she finally said that is what she wanted to be because before that it was a "sharp tooth". Maddux was a cute little pumpkin. Thanksgiving was spent with the Bells. It was great, the whole family was there! Not much else has been going on. Now I am just trying to get ready for Christmas. I have only been shopping once and now there is only 2 weeks left!

Snow

Last week it snowed and Jacie couldn't wait to get out and play in it. We dug out all of her winter clothes. Last year they were too big and now they are too small. She has grown so much this year. I haven't noticed it until I look at her warm clothes that she wore just a few months ago and there is no way any of them will fit her. It is like she skipped the whole 3T she went from 2T to 4T and now a big girls 4, when shopping at Childrens Place. She is getting so big.

Speaking of getting big Maddux is almost 7 months old. Where have those months gone? He is a chunk weighing in at about 20 pounds. Some nights I go to bed with major lower back pain from packing him around all day! He is starting to talk more and getting close to crawling. He wants to eat everything and is starting to enjoy solid foods (it took him awhile before he liked them!).

Back to the snow --- Tim took Jacie out and made a snowman. It was great snowman snow! He actually made 2, because the first one fell over and Jacie freaked out!

Jacie on her first day of school

This is the first day of dance. Everyone was so excited, including moms!

Jacie loves going to dance but picking out her leotard is a fight every week.

Tim is feeding Maddux rice cereal, he's still getting used to it!

Hello

Here is my first post as a blogger! Hopefully this will help everyone keep up on things going on in our family and pictures. So here is whats going on..... Jacie is in preschool and dance. She loves both of them. She loves to get in her leotard and tap all over the house. It is so cute to see her in class trying to do what the teacher says. There are 7 kids in her class, 4 from our neighborhood, they are all adorable. Preschool is great, she is already learning to write her ABC's and her name. I would have never got her going on writing the letters only learning them. She loves school and so do I, 2 hours with her away and usually Maddux takes a nap during that time so I have like an hour all to myself, it is heaven! Maddux is already 6 months old, I can't believe it. He is 19 pounds and 27 inches long and still growing like a weed! His smile lights up the room. He is turning into a mommas boy, if I leave the room he starts to cry, it is cute right now but could get really annoying. Tim is still at Zions and I still work 1 day a week at Primary Childrens. I love my job but it sure is nice to be home most of the time. Hopefully I can keep up on this blog and look forward to hearing from our friends and family.
