On November 2, 2014 we had our 8 year anniversary.
We did all our celebrating the night before, at dinner and the BYU basketball game, since our anniversary fell on a Sunday.
So this is the extent of our pictures on the 2nd. 
I love this...

goofball!

 And our little family!

Happy 8 years Jorden! I love you!

Myla Turns One

 
 I have to admit, it is going to be difficult to have a child with a birthday so close to Christmas! We got back from Disneyland the day before Myla's birthday and of course Christmas was just two days away. So I felt totally unprepared for her birthday. Good thing she is only one and didn't know the difference. Plus I think celebrating your birthday at Disneyland is probably the best way EVER to celebrate!
Of course Myla didn't like her party hat.


 So we tried the Disneyland hat again and that didn't work. Again.
 
When we brought out her cake she knew just what to do and dove right in!
 But she still didn't love the feeling of cake on her hands!

 
 At one year old Myla,
  • Had been walking for about a week
  • Had 4 teeth
  • Eats anything and everything
  • Is the Queen of mess-making and can unload an entire kitchen in just minutes.
  • Loves to tease her brother by kicking, hitting, or throwing toys at him
  • but loves him to death! She screams or smiles every time she sees him.
  • Love to chase Harvey. She gets in big trouble for this one!
  • Falls asleep really fast but wakes up around 5:30 regardless of what time she goes to sleep.
  • Loves her pacifier. This is going to be a hard one to break!
  • Does headstands constantly.
  • Loves to cuddle.
  • Does not let very many people hold her, or look at her for that matter. She loves people she knows but if she doesn't know you or know you that well, you don't stand a chance. It's awfully embarrassing!
  • She loves to snuggle.
  • Is so stubborn but oh so sweet!
We love you Myla! Happy first birthday!!

Family Time

I am so behind on the blog, it's not even funny. It's now to the point where I don't even know what I've blogged! So I'm posting some random pictures, hoping I'm not repeating myself. But I'd rather repeat than miss important memories!
Every other Sunday we go down to Jorden's Grandparent's house in Spanish Fork. We love going and it's a great chance to catch up with family that we may otherwise not see that often if we didn't have these Sunday get-togethers. We are so grateful that they have us all over.
 
 Myla being held by her Dad. For some reason, when we are at Grandma and Grandpa's, Myla doesn't like to be held, talked to, or even looked at by anyone except Jorden and me (And sometimes an uncle or aunt). It is so obnoxious! Hopefully she's get over it soon.
 
Great-Great-Grandma Lindley having a heart-to-heart with Krew.
  We just LOVE Grandma Lindley. She is almost 94 and is sharp as can be. Not only does she remembers every grandchild, great-grandchild, and great-great-grandchild, but she also remembers their birthday and always send a card with money.  
What a sweetheart!

 Right now Myla is pretty obsessed with Elmo. Whenever she finds an Elmo book or see an Elmo commercial she points and starts screaming. I downloaded this "Calling Elmo" app on my phone and it's been both a bad thing and a good thing. Sometimes I have to hide my phone for the day!
But one things for sure, Facetime with Elmo will surely bring a smile to her face!
 
After I had Krew I kept hearing about these Bumbo chairs and how amazing they were. Since they weren't around when I had Krew I knew I had to get one with my next. Well Myla wasn't really a fan of it when she was a baby and refused to sit in it, but it wasn't a total waste of money because she sure loves to climb in and out of it now!


 Oh well! Hopefully my next one loves it at the appropriate age!
 
On November 2, 2013, Jorden and I celebrated our 7 year anniversary. Kind of hard to believe! On our actual anniversary we took the kids and headed up to City Creek to eat at Cheesecake Factory. Nothing more romantic than dinner with kids! Ha! Luckily Jorden's brother and sister-in-law came a few nights later to watch the kids so we could have a real date, just the two of us.
 
Myla being silly!

And my two handsome boys being, well...handsome!


And a please-don't-take-my-picture picture.

Me and my love bug watching a movie later that night.
 
Jorden wrote a note to Krew in the bathtub (From the movie Little Rascals, except "hate" is replaced with "love") When Krew saw the note he said, "Ah! I want to write a not back to him!" and this is what he asked me to write:
 I thought it was pretty cute! If you can't tell it says, "Dad, I love your stinkin' throat. Love, Krew"
 
To say Myla loves to take a bath would be a huge understatement! If you even mention the word bath she immediately runs to the bathroom and starts taking her clothes off. This picture below was on her immunization day as you can tell from the bandaid on her leg.
Nothing cuter than a baby's bum!!
 
 Cute pictures of my family. I couldn't decide which ones were the cutest, so I posted them all.
Ya. Lovely bunch aren't they?!
 
One of Krew's favorite things to do is build a fort with Dad. One night we read bedtime stories in the fort with Krew's cool headlamp and flashlight.
 It was all fun and games until we broke the news that we weren't actually sleeping in the fort.
Oh well, maybe next time...maybe!

Happy 3 year anniversary!

On November 2, Jorden and I had our 3 year anniversary. Wow three years flew by! I can hardly believe that it was three years ago that we were sealed together. It seems like that was yesterday. But at the same time, I feel like I've known Jorden my whole life. I can honestly say that the last three years of my life have been the best three years of my life! I am married to the sweetest man in the world! On Monday morning Jorden left for work as usual but about 30 seconds after he walked out the door, the doorbell rang. I thought, oh he must have forgotten something. So I answered the door and Jorden was driving away. I looked down and saw these posters on the front step. A candy bar poster! Jorden said, "Sorry this is nerdy, it's like such a high school thing." But I thought it was the cutest thing! Jorden left work early that evening so he could take me out for dinner. I chose Bajio. (Gotta have those shrimp tacos! Yum!!) It was such a great day!




If you can't make out what the poster says, here you go:
