What's up...Really

I feel like since Gavin was born all I do is post pictures of him. While that is well and good, there are other thing that I have been doing rather than just baby so hopefully this will catch all of you up...

We went up to my dad's cabin for memorial, though we only took these pictures and our friends got much better ones, we had a blast. It took us a good two days to recover from not sleeping, though we never sleep with the new baby anyway. I have no idea why I didn't get a picture of our cute boys, Gavin, Tristan and Jaxson (I hope its not second child syndrome)

I finally got our camera out when we decided to do a goofy girls picture:
Leslie, Me, Adrian and Mariette
The boys: Greg, Bryce, Travis, and Dave
And of course our cute girls Hailey and Kendra
Here is the shrine that I had on my table for Gavin's blessing, I thought I would share it with you because it took me forever to find frames in my house that would work, and I kept switching out picture and stuff. I think it turned out pretty well. (Thanks again Adrian for the awesome signage)
Here is my awesome mom and Hailey. She has been so amazing lately, and since she decided to not travel has become the worlds most amazing Grandma and my very best friend. This is a picture of the day she taught me how to make her 6 grain bread. Hailey pretty much just licked the butter off of the bread. I think if I gave her a stick of butter, she may just eat the whole thing.

Oh how I miss this bread and butter, I have started a new diet that is awesome, but wow I would love to have some candy right now. It is the healthiest I have ever eaten in my life, and I already feel healthier and have lost 2 1/2 pounds and 2 1/2 inches in five days. I think it would even be more if I could run. Since I had Gavin, my body has just not been the same. My ligaments and tendons in my knees and ankles are very weak, and I of course hurt myself, and took myself out of the workout game for a couple of weeks. I think by the end of this week I will hopefully be able to run again. I miss it so much.

Hailey has been obsessed with pigtails lately and asks for them almost every day. How cute is this picture of her?

We got to go to Kendra's birthday party on Saturday, and Cinderella was there. Hailey had so much fun and loved singing and dancing with Cinderella. Cinderella was amazing! This is Mariette's sister-in-law, and she does all of the princess'. We are totally having her over for Hailey's Birthday. She took control and none of the parents had to lift a finger. Kendra was entranced by Cinderella being at her house, it was so cute.


Well friends, that is all for now. I hope you all have a wonderful week.

Blessing

We blessed our sweet baby Gavin yesterday and he did amazing. It was a beautiful day, and we have one amazing son, whom our Heavenly Father loves so much. I am excited and a little nervous to see the blessings he received take place. I know that he is one special spirit and a choice son of God. Greg did a wonderful job giving the blessing and we are so grateful to all the worthy men who stood in the circle. Thank you also to all those who celebrated the day with us. Only one thing went wrong, with all the hoopla not one picture was taken. I am so sad about it, but maybe we can reenact it and at least get a family photo next Sunday. Luckily my friend Janessa took some in his blessing outfit, so here you go.
