These are the days...


I have to admit its a lot harder to keep up on this with having 2 kids but here is a little update on what we have been doing lately.
I had company here for over 2 weeks so that was a little crazy but its always good to visit with family. Peyton I know its sounds crazy but is almost 2 months old!! The time has been flying by probably because I dont get to much sleep these days. I switched him to formula about 2 weeks ago and he was spitting up constantly and very fussy so I took him to the doctor and just like Laynie and myself he has acid reflux. So he has to go to a specialist and have some tests done and probably go on some stronger medicine. The good news is Laynie grew out of it at about 6 months so hopefully he will too. He smiled at me the other day which just made my heart melt <3

Laynie is just busy being a big sister most of the time she wants to help with him other times she doesnt want to be bothered. She started having this new phobia of bugs and wont go outside, so we have been trying to work with her on that. Every day she surprises me by the things she says. Most of you who know me, know that I put random words with things and give it my own meaning, well she must having been listening to mommy a lot because the other day she called my sister a gift! Like mother like daughter I guess.

Im in much need of a vacation but I doubt that will be happening anytime soon. I finally passed my 6 week mark so I can finally start working out and losing some of this baby weight and fit in my shorts and my cute new tankini. I am a weight watchers addict so I am going back to meetings!! I love them! and I swear by it.. it really works as long as I stick to it. I also only have one more month off from work
:( its going to be hard to go back but its only for a few hours a day.

Well this was kind of a random post but most of mine usually are :)

Busy Busy Busy





I cant believe it has been this long since I posted anything but things have been crazy busy the last few weeks! I also cant believe that my little Peyton is going to be 4 weeks old tomorrow.
I have had company in town for the last week for the blessing and it was also Laynies 3rd Birthday so we had a party for her that was lots of fun with lots of friends. Then on mothers day we had Peytons blessing so we had a luncheon for that after so we have had a lot of parties. Mothers day was a really nice day with doing his blessing and I felt the spirit so strong. It made me grateful to be a mother and also grateful to have such an amazing mom. My wonderful husband also surprised me and got me a spa package to Euphoria!!!
I really thought staying at home I would have more time on my hands but I feel like the days just fly by and I am always busy. Being a stay at home mom I decided is much harder than going to work because there are definetly days where I wish I could go to work!! I love these kids more than anything and when I do go back its going to be really hard to leave them with my hubby.

Being with my family has made me realize that it is the small things in life that really make us truly happy and I am so grateful for what I have in this time of a bad economy and so many problems in the world. I am so glad that I have the gospel to fall back on.
Well here a some pics over the last few weeks. Enjoy!
