Phil and I just got back from such a fun trip in Cancun, I love that place! Chips, guacamole, diet coke, a beautiful beach and finally a good, healthy husband...what more could a girl ask for! Phil started to get board but I came across "Cowboy Swagger" a book that was laying on an empty book case so I thought I'd give it a try! We did a lot of nothing but we had so much fun! For those of you that are afraid of Mexico I must say they were overly nice every where we went, we loved it! Thanks to my sweet Mom Livvi didn’t even know we were gone! She fell in love with “Butter” my moms dog named Cooper!

We had a bit of a SPOOK on HALLOWEEN




The night before Halloween we had my sisters and their families over for some yummy mexican food and then off to the ward party where we had live ponies, rock climb, haunted house, bounce house, a mechanical bull and lots of other activities. The kids had a blast and we sure thought Liv was such a cute Kitty Cat! Halloween night we got a sitter and off we went to see Lady Antebellum, at dinner I got a voice mail that the fire dept and police were at the house. The first thing that came to mind was that one of the kids had been hit by a car...lucky that wasn't the case. The babysitter and all the kids were locked out of the house with Livvi sleeping in the crib. Unfortunately they didn't reach us in time so they knocked the side garage door down so they could get inside. Poor Liv was awake and crying by that time but we are just glad everyone was safe! And I must say Lady A rocked, it was soo much fun!

The Month of October




Gosh it feels like the month of October went by way too fast! I love this time of year but I must say with it being so hot it still feels like it's July. Here are some cute pictures of what we were up to in October.

This little girl is in NURSERY...I can't believe it! It was kind of a sad day for me! You would of thought she had been going for months, she loved it! I was thinking "you could of at least acted a little sad just for my sake" but I was happy it was a good day for her. I hear the second week is actually harder because they know they are going to get left...we will see! It's sad how fast she is growing up on us. She is constantly hitting me on the knee with her hand saying "mom, mama, mom" I love it!

The other night Phil suggested we put Livvi on Pedia Sure because she isn’t eating as well as we would like her, every meal is a struggle. I laughed inside and thought it was cute that he was concerned and said, “look at these thighs, I’m sure if she misses a few meals it won’t hurt her!” We love all her chub and think she is adorable. Today we went to the doctor to find out we are way behind on shots but that miss liv is healthy and strong. She is 50-75% weight, 50% height and 90% head, I remember that is the first thing the doctor said in the OR, wow she has a big head! Just what a mom wants to hear!

WOW…I must say my 30th Birthday ROCKED! Every year I always think I should have a birthday WEEK not a birthday day! So I usually remind Phil about a month out that it’s coming up just so he can start planning! Well I must say I totally had a birthday week. Phil took Livvi and I to the Westin and we had so much fun swimming and hanging out. He took me to my FAVORITE place to eat White Chocolate Grill and I must say WCG + Livvi= Disaster but we still had a good time hanging out as a family! Then when we got back I started packing for my surprise trip with my mom and sisters. Off we went to San Fran for three nights and we loved it! The shopping was AMAZING and such a great place to people watch. I swear I could fly out once a year just to shop at the FIVE level Nordstrom’s along with so many other stores. Such a great time being with my mom and sisters and no kids. We laughed, did a lot of eating but defiantly did enough walking that it didn’t matter what we ate, shopped and saw a lot of neat stuff! Thanks everyone for making my 30th the best!

So Liv thinks she is a BIG GIRL now and wants to go down the stairs facing forward...well this is what happens. Good thing she didn't actually fall all the way down! She has been so good with the stairs for months now but I think she saw another baby going forward. She was just yelling for me to come get her, I couldn't help but get a quick pic first.





Wow Livvi has been quite the treat lately. She has spoiled me from the day she was born because she has always just been so sweet but watch out I'm afraid those days are over. Ever since we came home from the Fourth of July she has been a nightmare! Lots of sass and lots of fits, she is starting to become best friends with the time out chair. Good things we love her! Yesterday we weren't sure what to do with ourselves so we decided to go out and take some pictures. Even though she is rotten we still love her to death and think she is adorable!

HANDFUL




Can I just say little miss liv is a mess! Boy do we love her but I swear she is always on the go every second of the day! She is starting to show more and more of her personality and I must say she is sassy, sweet and stubborn! This girl LOVES sweets to the point where we may have to do a week of detoxing! Gosh I just love her and love the days I get to be home with her! From the moment she wakes up she starts say "Aaa-Bee", she loves to gives kisses and she is starting to be mommas little girl!







For Father's Day weekend we decided to pack up the car and head to the mountains with Suni, Mark and the girls. Boy does camping seem like a lot of work! It was so nice to get out of the heat and play in the dirt. For some reason it seemed like we got extra dirty this time but we had so much fun going on hikes, playing frisbee, shooting a little bow and arrow, making fruit loop necklaces (thanks Abs for making one for Liv), roasting marshmallows and making yummy smores! What a great weekend!


Last week us sisters had such a fun time haning out! It seems like all three of us never get together but Casi came down for the week with her boys and we had so much fun! Us three got to go out one night and shop, eat chinese food and then we went to the Killers, it was so fun to laugh together. I think Casi made us laugh in the movie when it wasn't even funny! It was so fun to get to hang out with her! She made super cute tie dye shirts for the kids...they look so cute in them! What a great week!

My sweet friend Mandy came all the way from Texas to come visit and take pictures while she was out her. We had such a good week catching up on the last five years of our lives, laughing harder than I have laughed in a LONG time and just hanging out wishing we lived closer so our kids could play together. I was so happy with how our pictures turned out! She is coming back out in September so if your interested just let me know!

PIG TAILS



Are these not the cutest PIG TAILS you’ve ever seen! I just love them!



This girl takes after her momma! I usually eat doughnuts and a coke for breakfast unless it’s watermelon season, for some reason I can’t get enough watermelon! I love how happy she gets when she sees the doughnuts!
