Weekend Fun

Can I just say that I LOVE weekends. I love spending time with Matt and Juliette all day long. The past 2 weekends have especially been nice.

Last weekend I got a new nephew!! Melinda and Chad had Camden Gardner on April 20 and he was 9 lbs 2 oz. Giving birth is such a miracle and I'm so thankful I got to be there. He is a cutie! They are both doing well and healthy. I love him!

 His fuzz top hair.

Already sucking his chunky little fingers.

We had game night with our next door neighbors and played Pictionary Man. We didn't take any pictures but we had a blast!

I'm a little bit addicted to the game- Draw Something!

 I organized! This is my closet before. Just chuck the shoes in.

 This is after. With a nice shoe rack from Savers for $2.99. So much better. Matt was happy!

 I love this girl! And she LOVES books.

 We went over to Melinda and Chad's one night. Kenzie and Mikell love new little Camden.

 And guess what?!?! Juliette is mobile. She is a scooter and good at it!

 We dog sat Tinkerbell.

 We love Baxter!

Matt and I had a fun Saturday and spoiled ourselves a little bit with a shopping spree because he had to work overtime last week. It was exciting. We went to Kohls, DSW, Old Navy, Desert Book and Chick Fil A for lunch.

House Hunting

This is the house that we didnt get... I am a little sad. We bid on this house and put an offer on another house we liked, but I guess someone could close faster than we could and offered more money. After searching and searching I loved and wanted this house. It was in a perfect neighborhood, but oh well we'll find another house we like. If you know of a good house for sell let us know! Our lease ends in July and we are ready to buy a house! (and scared...lol!)

We'd like

•  3-4 bedrooms
• 2 bathrooms
• 2 car garage
• 1500+ square feet
• .2+ acres would be nice
• built after 1950

Our top choices of cities to live:

• Murray
• Taylorsville
• West Jordan
• Cottonwood Heights (not going to find a house in our price range though)
• Midvale/Sandy

Ideally we'd like to spend about $160,000 ish. Let me know if you see or know of anything!

 

6 months

  Juliette is 6 months old!!

She likes to smile!
She is the best baby ever.

She weighs 14 lbs.

She wears 3-6 month clothes and size 2 diapers.

She is a great sleeper and sleeps from 9 pm to 6 am.

She moves around a lot while sleeping.

She is still bald and finally getting a little peach fuzz.

She can sit up, roll over and loves to giggle and wiggle.

She now understands peek-a-boo and it's so fun to do. 

She likes when I sing and give her baths.

She loves books. 

She is now eating rice cereal and likes it with applesauce and banana baby food.

She pushes down with her legs and is getting so strong. 

Tries to get things out of reach.
She loves when her grandma's and Josephine watch her.
She likes to be outside.

She looks like she wants to crawl but not quite.

Still LOVES the mirror. 

Likes dogs, fish and all animals.

I think she knows her name!

Happy Easter 2012

I love Easter Sunday! I'm so thankful for our Savior and I know that Jesus Christ lives. I'm thankful for holidays that bring families together and celebrating the gospel. 

She got this adorable Easter Dress from her Grandma!

We decided to get Juliette's ears pierced at 5 months old. It was a little sad, but they turned out great and she looks adorable!!

Matt picked out the cute blue flowers.

I love weekends. Afterwards we went to the Zoo! 

I wasn't sure if Juliette would get it but when this squirrel monkey and Juliette saw each other they both put they hands up on the glass and were enamored. It was fun!

Like an infant gorilla baby

Dinner at Bucca de beppo.

HeLLo....look at me, I'm cute!

Matts 24!

Happy Birthday Hubby!

 he got...

 some pet birds!!!

 two beautiful parakeets

Steve and Moz 

 he also got a...

 JUICER!! We are so excited about it and have already had pear, apple, carrot juice, mango, orange and pineapple juice, and much more. He got some running shoes, a wallet, black socks and candy.

 It's apparently Matt's dream to have an animal from every class- now we have 3/5 fish, mammal and bird.

 His family gave him an Apple TV and my parents gave him money to buy some new shoes- THANKS!!

 We celebrated all weekend with Hunger Games at the Drive Ins, breakfast at iHop, dinner at Rodizio Grill, bowling and shooting. I love Matt so much!! I'm glad he was born and we're looking forward to another great year.

Love you babe!
