6 months old!

Our sweet little girl is now 6 months old. I can't believe how fast the time has gone by! She had her doctor's appointment yesterday and he was very impressed with her. She is very advanced for her age in development and very healthy. It was so good to hear! She is in the 78% centile for weight at 17 pounds and 7 ounces, the 61% centile in height at 26 inches, and the 60% centile for head circumference. She is teething pretty bad now so she should have her teeth by the end of the month! She also likes to army crawl around the house and get into EVERYTHING!


Things are going pretty well for us here. School is good. I took my first test in Statistics and did really well so I'm happy about that. Singers is wonderful, but a lot of work. I occasionally find my self overwhelmed with trying to balance all the things that I have to do. But slowly i'm getting used to it and I am finding ways to accomplish all that needs to be done. We still have absolutely no leads on a better paying job either here or somewhere else and are getting concerned about our financial well-being, but we know that the Lord is aware of our needs and that he is watching over us. Prayers on our behalf concerning a job would be greatly appreciated.

5 Months old!

Chloe is now 5 months old! It is amazing how fast time flies! She is now an expert roller and rolls around everywhere. This morning she even got into my books, which means it's time to baby proof the house!
I have finally figured out how to get her to smile for the camera! So cute!

She has just started to learn to sit up by herself. By the end of the month she will be sitting up like a pro!

We've let Chloe try a couple of things. This is her first experience with a pickle, and she loved it!


She was not so sure about her first encounter with the rice cereal. However she is beginning to warm up to it!
Chloe is such a doll. And her personality is really starting to come out! We sure love her!

Our Anniversary

















We celebrated our 3rd Anniversary by spending a week at home together and doing a variety of different activities together. It's hard to believe that we have been married for 3 years already! I love our life together. We are so blessed! I Love Curtis so much and I am very grateful for him. Can't wait for the rest of eternity with my sweetheart!

4 Months old!

Chloe turned 4 months old yesterday! She is getting so big!
We tried to take some pictures but every time she sees the camera she refuses to smile! Even when we would try and hide the camera from her she somehow seemed to find it. Such a silly girl!
We got her to smile here but then her hands were in the way!




We finally got a smile from one of our "sneak attacks" with the camera.

Chloe is such a happy, beautiful girl. She is very smiley, talkative, and loud! She loves her mommy and daddy and her binky. Chloe hates bathes, her carseat, the heat, and being in crowds. We sure love her and we love watching her grow big and strong!

Reunion, Yellowstone and The Grand Tetons

Here are some pictures highlighting our trip to Idaho/ Wyoming during the 4th of July weekend. We spent time with family, ate yummy food, Curtis ran a 5k, saw the Rexburg temple, went to Yellowstone, and hiked in the Tetons. It was a fun trip!
