September

Well I know that September is gone and October is almost gone too, but I have had no time. Alan started school the first week of September and he was so excited. We have been busy with homework every day since. For those of you who didn't know we had another baby. She arrived on the 13th and is not the great sleeper that Faye was but I know that it won't last forever, so I look forward to the day when she'll bee sleeping all night. We named her Alexis Claire. She's 6 weeks old today and has the biggest cheeks ever. Alan and Faye are so in love with their new little sister and well, so are we. This pregnancy went by so fast that Im still trying to get used to the fact that we have another baby in the house. I had a lot of help, my sister was able to come for about 2 weeks. I was totally surprised, I have the best husband, he planned the whole thing after my sister told me that she couldn't come and they surprised me at the hospital and Marco's mom came two weeks later and just left last week so we are now on our own, sacary. We are doing ok, running around in the morning getting everyone ready and in the car just to take Alan to school and then again at noon. I'm sure it will all get better with time, but for now things are just too crazy around here. If you look at the first picture and go to my post about Faye's 1st birthday you can see if these girls look alike, what do you think?

Daddy's Birthday and two front teeth.

So last week was Marco's birthday and we decided to surprise him at work with some balloons and one of those big cookie cakes.We ran around all morning trying to buy all his surprises and then we finally headed to his office, which I had never been to before. We wanted to totally surprise him and go upstairs but apparently that place is like the White House, you need some sort of security clearance to get in. So, because no one that he works with that I new their names was there at that time, we had to call him to come down to the front desk. I like to think that it was still a nice surprise. After that we headed to McDonald's where Alan and Faye played for a while and then we headed home. While I was in my room Alan came running and screaming "mom look it, my tooth fell off" and a week later the next tooth was gone too. I can't believe I have and almost 6 year old, who just lost his first 2 teeth. Time goes by way too fast.

Going Private

I just thought it would be a good idea to make our blog private. So I'll be sending invites. If you want to be invited just let me know. Thanks. I hope to have it done by the end of this month.

I'm a big kid now!!

So its actually been about 2 or 3 months now but my little Faye Faye is all potty trained now. It took some pushing but the girl was ready. It just had to be her idea and as soon as she did it once she just kept doing it. We are all so proud of her. Even Alan was a big help, cheering for her. Love you mama!!

Pony Rides @ Gardeners Village

About a month ago we decided to take the kids to one of my favorite villages, Gardeners Village. It brings back memories of when I was pregnant with Faye and now she's 2. We got there and walked over to the the petting zoo, as soon as he saw the animals Alan said " I remember this place, you brought me here". I can't believe he remembered, it was like 3 years ago. They had so much fun riding the ponies and petting the animals. I had a blast shopping, window shopping anyway, we had just gone on a big shopping trip to Park City that week. Any way, the day was beautiful and it was nice to get out and see the kids run around.

She's 2!!

I can't believe my little princess is 2. We go to celebrate her birthday with our friends the Kaufman's. Faye is full of life. She is a very happy girl. Faye loves to play with her brother, hang out with mom in the kitchen, siting on the floor by my feet while I'm doing whatever it is that I'm doing, and stand at the door when daddy comes home from work. She really enjoys having her picture taken and loves to dance to any kind of music. She loves milk, seriously, she could drink a gallon in one day if I let her. My little girl is developing a love for books and I have no problem with that. She sure is a chatter box, she talks up a storm. Faye is a girl with attitude, if you are doing something she doesn't like she'll let you know. She often tell me "Stop singing" whenever I do sing. She's a very girly girl and loves to play with her princess tea set and loves to put on her Snow White dress that she got for her birthday. All I can say is that she is a wild one and I could not be happier. I'm so glad that you are part of our family. Heavenly Father must really love us, if he send you to us. Be as wild as you want to be. Mom, dad and brother love you just the way you are, even if you do drive us crazy some times =)!

A New Life

Its been about a month and a half since we moved. I know I'm super late but I haven't really had much time to blog. So here it is.

I think it was the week before we moved when the kids got to play in the beautiful Logan snow, how I miss it. I just stood back and took some pictures. I haven't seen snow since then. The following week we moved, it was crazy, but good. We got to spend Christmas in our new apartment. Watching the kids open up their gifts on Christmas morning was the best gift for us, since we moved so fast, and didn't have time to buy each other anything we have been slowly buying the things we wanted and needed. One thing we love to do is take the kids to Discovery Gatweay, we really love this place, the kids have so much fun and they learn so much.

Alan started school about 2 or 3 weeks after we moved. He loves it, and is having so much fun. In these few weeks that he's been in school I have already seen great changes. He can express himself so much better. I really think its helping him a lot.

Marco is traveling a lot, its hard some times, but I don't mind. I know he loves his job and thats what matters to me. I don't want him to stay in a place that he dosen't really like just to be able to provide for his family. We have been really good about keeping up with FHE, even if its just singing some songs with the kids, we really enjoy it.

Thats all for now, I'll try to post more often. Hope every one is having a great time.
