First time for everything

It's official.... Kylee has her first cold. We have all had a rough couple of nights of waking up every 2-3 hours (we are not used to that. She is an awesome sleeper). Her nose is so stuffy she can barely breathe and then she can't stop coughing. Her poor little eyes are so glazed over and it looks like she is crying all the time. All in all she has handled it like a champ. I think I have been the baby through this whole thing. It breaks my heart to see her so miserable and not being able to do anything about it. Welcome to motherhood right?Doesn't she look so sad in this picture?

Another fun night out!

We had another fun night out tonight. One of Christian's high school buddies and his family came into town for the weekend and we were able to go to dinner and ice cream with them. They had a little girl with some special needs and she could not stop hugging Kylee. While we were at dinner she had to sit right next to me so she could sit next to the baby. She couldn't talk very well so she would sit on her chair and pat her legs and that meant she wanted to hold Kylee. I think she did that about 20 times during dinner. After dinner we went to Artic Circle and I couldn't resist getting this picture of the girls man handling Kylee. We had so much fun. Thanks Ryan and Shantelle for coming to visit. It was a blast.

Which Twilight Character are you?

You are thoughtful and care very deeply for your family. A loving home is of great importance to you and you always try to make people feel welcome. Although you have a great capacity to love, you also have a great capacity to hurt, so at times you can be sensitive. You're firm when you need to be, but people trust your judgment and appreciate the kind way you always handle things.

A piece of Humble Pie

The past few days I have had a lot of time to reflect on my life. Where I have been, where I am now and where I am going. That's when I realized I need to eat a big piece of humble pie. I have been having a pity me party for the past week or so and have spent many hours crying and being a complete hag to my husband. On Saturday night that all came to an end when Christian opened up my eyes to how truly blessed I was. For the past few days all I could think about was how much weight I still need to lose or how ugly my hair looks and how I don't feel like I have any friends, blah blah blah, the list goes on and on. What I didn't realize is that I have all I could ever ask for right in front of my eyes. I have an AMAZING husband who would do ANYTHING for me, I have a beautiful little girl who makes me smile all day long, I have a roof over my head, food on the table, but most importantly I have the gospel. All those things that I have been worrying about for weeks will mean nothing in the life after. But what will matter is my family and the gospel. I just recently received a calling in the young women to serve as a personal progress assistant. To be completely honest I was NOT excited about it at all because 1. I hated young women's when I was of that age and 2. I loathed having to do personal progress. After much thought and prayer I realize this is probably a blessing in disguise. This is the perfect calling for me. I will have the opportunity to forget about myself and what I think my needs are and I will get to focus on helping other people gain a testimony and achieve something I didn't get to. In all reality this calling is probably more for my own sake than it is for the girls. I'm in a rut that I need to get out of and quick. So with that piece of humble pie in my mouth I gladly accept this calling and I am going to step up to the plate and do all that I need to for my calling and then I will also step up to the plate to be a better person at home. Christian and Kylee deserve the best and only the best. Life really isn't all that bad. Too bad it took a few weeks of crying and being a serious grouch to figure it out. Good thing the humble pie is available to anyone at anytime and any place if you are willing to accept it.

Saturday is a "Special" day

Does anyone else's husband like football/baseball or fantasy football/baseball as much as my husband does? Since the moment he got up the t.v. has been on and he flips from one game to another game and to another game to another game. If I start talking to him he has to push the pause button so he doesn't miss a thing. The best part about this whole thing is that if he is feeding Kylee while watching sports I'll look over and the nipple of the bottle is down on her neck instead of in her mouth. He also has been tormenting Kylee. It originally started out as him just casually playing with her. He was holding her on his lap and making the sound of a car shifting gears. (Is that even a sound?) and all of a sudden her bottom lip starts sticking out and she gives us that sad puppy dog look and she just starts crying. So then he tried it again and she did the same thing. So then he says I'm gonna go in the office and make that sound. Tell me if she gives you the face again. DUDE..... she is five months old and he laughs about making her cry. I have to admit it was a little funny but I also felt so bad for her. The sound really did scare her. I love my husband with all my heart but today GRRRRRR..... That pretty much sums up how I feel about Saturdays and football and my husband teasing my five month old.

Date night at Tuacahn
