Kyle's Trip to Taiwan

On Monday, Kyle got back from a 10 day business-like trip to Taiwan. He served his mission there and was able to visit a couple of the families he taught. He said it was kind of like being home again, and he had such a fun time. It was fun to see familar faces, eat the food, and all the smells brought back memories of his mission days. It was so hard having him gone that long, and I'm happy to have him home again. Maybe next time, Brittin and I can go with him!!! I'm just going to tell what I know about the pictures, which isn't a lot...but you get the idea :) Happy Reading

This is the crazy busy night market.

The Chunky Monkey is 6 Months Old

Here's a couple of my favorite pictures of Brittin.

Don't worry she didn't eat that apple all by herself.

Dressed in our sunday best :)

We bought this little play area for Brittin a couple of weeks ago, and it will usually keep her entertained for a couple minutes.

Easter Pictures

Easter was a ton of fun this year...snow and all. Of course, it was Brittin's first easter, and although she doesn't get the concept yet, we just love having her with us. We ate breakfast at my parents and it was so yummy. We wateched a little conference then headed out for our annual easter egg hunt. My dad had us running around looking for clues in freezing cold weather!! Good times

Easter family Photo...and if you'll notice some how Neko (my dog) even managed to be in it.

Brunch at Mom and Dad's house, and boy was in delicious!!! I love breakfast!

All bundled up for Brittin's first easter egg hunt. She was thrilled :)

Yea for Spring, warmer weather, a new job and Tax Returns!!!!

I just love this time of year. It will always and forever remind me of track season but it means summer is getting close and no more snow!!! Ha we live in Utah snow comes in June I forget. Things have been going so well and I feel so blessed. Kyle is rockin at his job. He has only been there about 4 weeks now and already he's been top in the company for sales. He works in Provo for those of you who don't know so we see each other about twice a week. He stays at his parents house a couple of the night and with brothers and friends the other nights. We've been looking for a nice rental in Heber or Orem area so if anyone knows of places let me know! I would love to be closer to Kyle and actually feel like we are married again, but as for now Morgan is nice and cheap!!!
Brittin is almost 6 months now and about 15 pounds...quite the little chunk monk. I'll have to post some pictures soon. Lately she will puker up her lips and blow out of them like she is blowing out a cake and it is hilarious!!! She is such a cutie and I just love her so much. She's still not sleeping through the night and I'm finding that my sleep deprivation is getting worse and worse as the months go on...and I'm losing patience!!! so if any of you know some sleep tactics please share them...the baby whisperer is not working for me.
As for me I love being a mom as challenging as it is at times. I'm keeping myself busy with crafts and other projects. Kyle and I started teaching the 13-14 year old sunday school lessons. Its been fun getting back into teaching. I really enjoy it.

Life is good...We are so blessed! Hope all is well with everyone!

Brittin's 4 month old Pictures

My sister took some more pictures of Brittin about a week ago, and as always, she did an amazing job!!! I'm so blessed to have such a talented sister and beautiful baby :). There has been so much going on and definitely a lot of changes. Kyle started a new job in Provo on Monday. I'm so sick of moving so I convinced him to stay in Morgan for a couple more months and if everything works out, we'll eventually move closer to his work. Brittin is getting to be quite the chunk :). She had her 4 month old shots today (why must we torture little babies and their mothers????) and a check up. She weighs about 14 pounds now and is a healthly girl. I'm saying busy crocheting, sewing, making more bows, and keeping up on all my TV shows ha ha. Life is good and I am so blessed!

Blue Eyed Girl for sure!!!

A much needed update

Here goes a ton of pictures!!!

We blessed Brittin on the first sunday in January. My mom made her dress and it was so beautiful. Kyle did an awesome job, and it was such a fun day to spend with family. Definitely a day to never forget.

So I've taken up crocheting in the last little while and this was one of my first hats I made for Brittin. Now she has about 4 of them. :) I've also been doing a ton of sewing. So far I've made Brittin shoes, 2 pairs of pants and hopefully a dress here soon.

Hangin out with mom

Christmas was a blast this year. We spent Christmas Eve in Coalville. We went to my Grandma Rees' on Christmas Eve for the traditional christmas party then spent the night at my parents. Christmas morning we opened presents with the family then headed up to my grandma LaVauns for breakfast. That afternoon we went down to Heber to hang out with the Tanners.

Brittin and Grammy

Just a little too big for this carseat.
Our first christmas as a family :)
