More pictures!

Alisha Straley came over and took these pictures of Mayzie for me. It was so nice not having to take her outside the house. She was a sweetheart for coming over not once but twice because I didn't have any headbands for her! Alisha has trained me well on how to have a girl and made sure she was set for the second time around. You would never guess but this was the first time Alisha had done this! She is a natural at this and if you need pictures taken you should ask her!

Mayzie!!!

Mayzie was born on Sunday November 11th at 1:37pm. It was so nice and easy I couldn't believe it. I was scheduled to be induced and we went in at 7:15am and my doctor got me started right away. I felt zero pain because they gave me my epidural before my contractions got too bad. She came really fast! We were so happy that we didn't have a repeat of having a baby go to the NICU. She is so healthy and very little. She weighed 6 lbs. and 5 oz. She was 191/2 inches long. We are so happy she is here and I love having a girl and a boy.

Happy Birthday Jared!

Jared turned the big 27 yesterday. We had family over for cake and ice cream. He works so hard for our family and is a wonderful dad and husband. The poor guy has a very pregnant wife right now so I hope he had a good birthday. I tried to be nice!!!Our baby is coming soon! We can't believe she is almost here. I'm still at a one. We had an ultra sound on Monday because she is measuring small and she weighs 6 lbs. right now. That is actually big for the Love side!

Jared loves his birthday cake and doesn't like to share so I made him two. One for the fam and one just for him! Parker loved helping him blow out the candles.

Happy Halloween!

Parker and his best buddy!

It took Parker only one day to grow facial hair!

Our little pirate!

Pumpkin carving was great! Parker wanted only one eye and Jared won the contest for best Jack-O-Lantern.

Happy Birthday Parker!

My baby is 2 yrs. old! I can't believe it. He is so full of life and this birthday was so fun because he is talking and doing everything on his own. We had a fun pirate birthday party because Parker loves Peter Pan. We had our family come over and we had a blast! We are so lucky to have such a fun and loving little boy.

Grandma and Grandpa Love gave Parker a bike and he loved it!

Hayley and Burke gave Parker a sword and he really thinks he is Captain Hook with it.

Parker loved opening all the presents!

Happy 4th of July!

Lowe swimming party

Jared's sister Jill put a pool in last summer and so we got together with the whole fam and had a great time being with everyone.

Museum Vacation

The last museum we went to was the Aquarium in Sandy. He had a good time here too.

Parker's favorite movie is Bambi so he talked with Bambi and his family in the garden.

Favorite thing about the hotel was this dog statue that Parker thought was real. Only $800! He wanted it so bad.

Daddy's boy!

We were excited when we checked into Little America because they upgraded us over to the Grand America. It was so nice! We felt a little out of place because it was so nice and we got some funny looks being with a 2 yr. old.

Parker doing his absolute favorite thing...driving! He also got very attached to this red cowboy hat he found.

The next museum we went to was the Children's Museum at the Gateway. He loved sitting in the helicopter.

Playing on the playgroung inside the park.

We decided to take Parker on a museum vacation. He had a blast and it was a lot of fun! The first place we went was the Dinosaur Park.

Idaho Falls

We had a great time seeing where Burke and Hayley now live.  We have also never seen so many goslings.  They were everywhere by the falls.  It is so fun having them close to us.  

Idaho Falls

This was our visit to Idaho Falls. Parker had a blast with the ducks and geese.

Music Class

This year me and Parker took a music class at the Book Table.  It was so much fun and Parker is becoming quite the musician.  He makes everyone laugh and he loved his music teachers! I have to make sure he does at least one thing that is not a sport!

We are still alive!

I am not good at this blog thing.  Halloween is definitely over!  Parker is almost two now. Summer is coming so I hope we can do a lot better with our posting.  Parker is growing up so fast and we are very entertained by his personality. Uncle Nate is pressuring us to grow his hair out and we will see how long it lasts.  Hayley and Burke just moved to Idaho Falls and it will be fun having them closer to us.  Our little family will soon be four!  I am due November 26th.  We are excited and surprised at the same time.  Jared is recovering from knee surgery and has missed being active.  We still have our same teaching jobs and I have loved teaching part-time. I am still counting down the days to spend a whole day with Parker all summer long.  We hope everyone is doing good and sorry we don't keep in touch with everyone.  We will try to do better.
