My life...

This past week I went down to Utah with my mom and sisters and brother and we spent the week at education week. It was amazing! It's been a few years since I have been there and it felt so good to have a week of inspiration and education and shopping! I came hope feeling like a new woman after such a nice break and am still on a high from it! I got to room with my Aunt Kristi who is hilarious at 12:00am when she wakes up thinking it is 5:30am and time to wake up because she looked at her watch upside down! I am more motivated to be a better mom and wife, homemaker and scripture scholar. One of the classes I really enjoyed by chef Brad taught me all about cooking more with grains which I am excited to try out. While shopping with my sister I found this great find and picked up a couple. I love wearing it around the house even though over my belly it makes me look like a tent! Unfortunately I didn't take my camera out once during this trip it was just so jam packed with fun and I didn't even think of it.

But in order to pacify your need for some photos, here are some from the magazine I did a photo shoot in last month, it was a fun experience! Heather Ward referred them to me and now I feel like a celebrity!





This is really old but I turned 26 last month! I am getting so ancient! I still feel like I am 18, minus the huge belly and kids running around the house... anyway we were gone camping that week and Josh couldn't make it out until later in the week but he sent a surprise in my camera bag that I discovered on the trip and am so excited about! I have been wanting this lens forever so he put it on the camera and packed it all up for me to discover for my birthday. He is so awesome.



When I got home last weekend Josh had the house spotless and Heidi in a toddler bed, something I have been dreading doing because I had this idea that she wasn't going to do well and she has always been so good in her crib, but she loves her new bed and has been such a champ going to sleep in it! Although she fell out a of bed a few times so now I need to get one of those side rails, any idea where to get them? I looked at Walmart today and they had one there for $50! As if I am spending that much on a piece of metal, for now I just have pillows to catch her fall...

Anyway here are the girls doing what they do best while I am trying to get them all ready for bed. Apparently pants also double as beautiful Princess hair which is the look they are going for here, what do you think?


One more thing that I need to remember is that when I called home to talk to Josh while I was away he put Jadyn and Heidi both up to the phone, Jadyn and I chatted, and Heidi mostly likes to listen to the voice on the phone, she did say hi and bye, and Josh told me that she kissed the phone in the middle of it. I COULD HAVE DIED! What a sweetheart thinking she is kissing me through the phone! I love being a mom!
