Little Smiles

We were able to go up to Idaho for Thanksgiving this year and had so much fun. I was so thankful that we could make the trip, and even more grateful that Leighton slept through the car ride there! It was great to hang out and spend a long weekend with my family. The food was amazing, as always, and the company was even better. They love spending time with Leighton every chance they get! (I mean, who can really resist her?) I loved it and can't wait to go back up for New Years! I really love this time of year.

Happy Birthday Davis!!

"Happy Birthday" to my amazing husband. Today, December 3rd, he turns 26!! Crazy. He didn't even realize how old he is! I just wanted to say thank you so much for all you do. We have had a crazy year together, with a lot of unexpected things happen. No matter what the events were, you were always right there holding my hand. I am so happy to have you by my side. You always step up to make sure that we are taken care of. The last 2 1/2 years have been so much fun, and I can't wait to see what the future holds. Thank you for always making me laugh, setting goals with me (and breaking them!), and being such an extraordinary daddy. Love you forever.

First Halloween

So Leighton started off the day as a cute pumpkin! I was sooo excited for her first little Halloween. I love dressing her up. I know the picutre with the skeleton looks a little mean... but she loved it! He would talk and laugh, and his eyeballs pop out. She had the biggest smile on her face. (Even though I couldn't catch it on camera.) She really couldn't take her eyes off him! She finished off the night as our little pea pod! I loved her little face peeking out! The costume was more like a sleeping bag on her. It lasted for about 30 minutes, but it was worth it!

Ok... I couldn't help it... Twilight the movie comes out in 21 days!

Random Pics

We have been really busy lately, and I haven't been taking many pictures! I just wanted to post some of my recent favorites. They are all pretty random, but how could I resist a cute pic of little Leila Bo? I can't believe how big she's getting! (Well big in our standards.) She's almost 4 months old!! She has been wearing size newborn... finally out of premies! Although I just bought some cute 0-3 outfits, and I think she'll be able to pull them off!! I am really excited about all the fun clothes and dressing up because there is NOT a very big selection in the premie section! Anyways Happy Fall to everyone!

Tired after her big day..

So we were finally able to bless our little girl on Sunday, and it was such a special day. Leighton was so calm the entire day, and she looked darling. She is the most preciuos little miracle. Daivs gave her a beautiful blessing. I am so happy to have such a great husband that can bless our little girl. Thanks to all the friends and family that were able to come! It really meant a lot to have you all there!

Which one of these is not like the others?!?

Halle(3 1/2 mths), Leighton(2 1/2 mths), Paisley(5 1/2 mths)

My mom and sisters threw a baby shower for Leighton this week, and it was so nice. We had one planned during the summer, but when she came early everything was postponed. This is the first week that I have been able to be around for one! It turned out really cute, and I know they put a lot of work into it! Thank you girls sooo much!! It was fun to see everyone, and we got some cute pics of the babies together.

Leighton's Birth Announcement

A couple weeks ago we had Leighton's pictures taken, and I love the way they turned out! So we are finally getting out her birth announcement! I'll be putting up some more pictures when I get them back, but I wanted to show off the final product.

Leighton's Blessing will be on September 21st at 10:45 AM in North Ogden. Please come and enjoy the special day with us!

Logan's Farewell 8-10-08

My little brother Logan left for his mission on August 12th. He is serving in the Capetown, South Africa Mission! Right now he is in the MTC in Johannesburg?. He did a great job at his farewell, and we were so happy that we could be there with Leighton. We love Logan so much and are so proud of him. Our entire family has been so sad not having him around, but we know he is doing such a great thing. He is always the one to make us laugh. He's got the most amazing personality, and I'm sure the people in Africa will feel the same way. We love you Logan!!!

Coming Home from the Hospital

She barely fit the carseat requirements, but Leighton is finally home!!! She has been home for a couple of weeks now, and it is so nice to have her out of the hospital. We've had a lot of sleepless nights, but I couldn't be happier to stay awake. She is so beautiful and the center of our attention. We are just trying to keep her eating and growing. What a blessing it has been to have her healthy and home every second of the day.

Look... No Oxygen!

(She doesn't like the flash on the camera!)

Little Leighton has done great this week! She is off of her oxygen (keep your fingers crossed), and is doing really well without it. It's been off for 3 days now... they say that's a really good sign. She is still trying to eat on her own, and that's her last hurdle! She is able to eat on her own about 3 times a day, but she's still needing a lot of help from the feeding tube. She's getting bigger and bigger, and we can't wait to get her home. The little miss isn't quite there yet, but the end is definitely in sight!!
