Favorite Faces- January!

I love how silly and crazy my boys are! They are constantly dressing up (or down) and making me laugh. :)

Independent West:

and the Tave-man:

Oh I love being their mommy!

Happy Birthday Jeff!

We had a lot of fun with family celebrating Jeff's 28th birthday!

The boys gave him a travel chess set (he loves chess) and Trav & Shar gave him a painting that Trav made of Christ. SO neat. Trav has since completed it and we are going to get it framed for Jeff's office.

(about the 'cake': I told Jeff I would make him ANY dessert he wanted for his birthdy. Ice cream was his request!)

28 years young and even more handsome than the day I married him:

We had a little celebration with the boys on Jeff's actual birthday and that's where I gave him his gift from me:

We were also able to go on an awsome date of Jeff's choice: the temple followed by a delicious and FREE dinner at Red Robin. (you must sign up for their birthday club!)

Happy Birthday to my wonderful, incredible and fabulous husband.
I can't imagine my life without you and love that each year with you just gets better and better.

Here's to the rest of our lives!

My kind of blogging: Tag you're it!

A friend posted this 'tag' on her blog and I thought it was fun and even better- FAST!

You just open the first picture folder on your computer, and pick the 10th photo. Then tell us a little bit about it.

Here's mine:

This was taken in September 2008. Tave is only 4 months old. I look at this now and can't believe how big my little baby has gotten.
Just look at those adorable little cheeks I could squeeze and kiss and smooch and kiss on some more. (And I still do!)
I love that we have technology to help us capture those sweet moments in life that are so fleeting.
I sure love my babies!

Now I tag: Anyone and everyone who wants to do this!

Another Switcheroo!

My friend, Alli, and I did a product swap. She makes these adorable, adorable chef sets:

I made her some beanies and she sent these in time for Christmas!

Perfect since the boys got a kitchen set!!

The boys are SO cute in them and love to wear them when they help me bake.

Of course, they were wearing the hats all morning until I pulled out the camera, but I did snatch one shot with Weston in his. LOVE it!

You can find them here.

12 Weeks

Well, here I am: Alive, sort of.

I have not felt so great over the past 6 weeks and have been WAAAAY more tired than I have ever been in my life. Seriously. I can fall asleep ANY time. ANY place. Jeff has been such an incredible and amazing husband to give me breaks when I need them. (which pretty much means all the time!)

And as you can see...my bump is there and it's only going to get bigger!

(Weston likes to remind me of this every day.... "Mommy, you have a baby in your tummy and it's going to get big and big and bigger." sure love this kid!!)

But you know what?

A new life, a new baby, a new little person to hug and cuddle and love

makes it ALL worth it.

And I can't wait.

ps Christmas pics ARE coming...there a TONS to sort through so I kind of skipped over them to get up to date!
