Sophie's 1st Year...

I would have preferred to do a slideshow, but it wasn't working out for me. Either way, enjoy these pictures of Sophie's 1st year of life. It is crazy that a year ago she was so new and tiny, and now she is all over the place, talking, and being a little spaz. Sophie absolutely loves her big sisters and it fun to see them grow together. She is now saying "whats that" to about anything, and she loves music and animals. She was been such a blessing and joy in our lives and as much as I don't want her to get bigger, its been fun to go see each phase come and go, and I look forward to many more to come.

Myah's 8th Birthday

I can't believe Myah is eight! It seems such a short time ago when she couldn't say her R's and had the cutest raspy voice ever!!! Some of my favorited Myah quotes: When she would say Chlockolate instead of Chololate, "Wyan doesn't start with and R, Wyan starts with a W!" And last but not least she was the one who created my moms nickname, Grandma ConCon. My "little one" is now eight. Wow, how time flies.

Myah was able to have a fun Luau Birthday Party. This was SO much fun!! Then the next Saturday, on May 1st, she was baptized by her Grandpa Snow and Confirmed by Grandpa Bylund. She looked SO beautiful on the stand, I was SO proud of her and her choice to be baptized. She amazes me with her strengthe at her young age, I am excited to see what the future holds for Myah. Smart, Beautiful, Funny and full of LIFE!! Thats my girl!!!

Busy-Busy

So January and February have gone by in the blink of an eye! They were very busy months, so busy that I haven't been a very good picture taker, so I don't have much. Or we just haven't done anything that fun to take pictures of.

In January, we put our house up for sale, hoping to take advantage of the economy and upgrade our home. So cleaning and packing up stuff, and keeping our house emaculate was what we did for most of the month of Jan and February. We also had to be out of the house a lot, so thanks to mom and dad and Sharilyn for hosting us a few times! But like most hard work, it paid off. Last week we accepted the offer on our home. And now we finally (after over 50 homes) have found one we love and are putting in an offer tomorrow! So March will be our moving month.

As far as Ally and Myah, well, they have been super good to keep everything clean and making their beds. Definately got them into a good habit. They had a fun Valentines day, and enjoyed making their boxes with Jory. They also had Parent Teachers Conference, which is always good. And they both tested for Spectrum on Feb 20th! I was so proud to have 2 kids testing!

Sophie is sitting up and trying to be mobile. Though she still hates to be on her belly. It is pretty impressive how far she can stretch. She sings....and it is SO cute! Ahh..ahhhh..ahhh. She just started babbling "ba ba" and she is So proud of herself!

So here are about the only good pics for the past couple of months. Thanks for reading my random post today. Just feeling good and blessed for what I have!


Myah- So proud of her Valentine Castle!


Ally- So proud of her Valentine mail box!


Cute- Naked Sophie! Gotta show off the chubby!


And she is sitting Up!

Christmas

Another Christmas has come and gone, but this year was really fun and something that I actually looked forward too. I think that it was a mixture of serveral things, first- I am SO happy, happily married with 3 beautiful girls. Second, it was the first year I wasn't stressing about how I was going to afford Christmas, and third- I was looking forward to spending Christmas Eve with my family. All in all it was definatley a Christmas to remember.
I know that my family will read this blog so I must say that this year I had to reflect on the past, and how much help and support my parents and family have given me over the past several years. My parents helped me finacially, emotionally and provided me with unconditional love. My sisters, who helped tend Ally and Myah, and for their listening ears and shoulder to cry on. My brothers for defending me and my little brother for letting hang out with him from time to time. I don't know if you will ever know what you all mean to me! I am SO blessed to have them, and now that my life is back to normal, I want to make it up to them- I don't know how but one day I will!!!! I LOVE YOU ALL!!!
And of course I can't forget my own little family. Jory for being my best friend and husband, who encourages me to be my best and never give up. Ally, though just turning 10, is so wise for her years. She has so much courage and it amazes me to see the young woman she is becoming.
Myah for being such a peacemaker. She does not like contention and will do what she can to avoid it and to please everyone. I am proud of her ability to communicate her feelings.
And of course for sweet little Sophie, who is the center of attention in our house. She is such a happy little baby and brings peace and love into our home.
Last but not least, Jory's family who lives far away, but never ceases to support us in everything. It seems like we have been a family for a lot longer that a year and a half!
Here are some pictures of our Christmas Season. Enjoy and Happy New Year!

Sophie.......



These pictures were taken a couple of nights ago...she is our little Christmas Elf!

I can't believe Sophie is 4 months old today! It's amazing how fast time goes and how fast she has grown. It's so fun to see how her personality is developing and how she is no longer a newborn, but a sweet, sweet, adorable little baby. She loves to sing along to music, and she demands attention from those around her. She also loves to chew on her hand, or whatever she is holding. Sophie is also starting to laugh more and more, it is SO cute! She can finally roll over now too, belly to back, thanks to her daddy practicing with her everyday.
