Devan is Amazing

Daddy makes everything so fun!

My Girl forever and for always!

She is a gorgeous little girl!

This is the funniest face ever!

Our Family!

She is a Daddy's girl, and a mommy's girl!

We wanted to get some pictures of Halle since she is 6 months! (A big milestone as you know) So my ever so talented sister once again captured our sweet baby so we can always rememeber her!

1,2,3,4,5...and 6 months! Halle is so big!

Happy, Happy all the time! She is so beautiful I just love staring at her.

We went to mesquite for my birthday and on the way home (between the screaming, because she doesn't like being confined to her car seat!) She would pull this face! SO CUTE!

We just went to her 6 month check up and the stats are in... 17 lbs 09 oz, 27.5 inches long!! She is healthy! Which we knew but it is nice to get the confirmation, my doctor also told me I have very good breast milk... um thank you?

This was our first trip to the zoo, it was so fun! We were able to go with Jen, Stasia and another friend for my birthday! We had a blast, especially Halle. She loved all the people!
Now the Carousel was a sure treat! I thought she wouldn't pay attention at all, but Boy was I wrong! The second it started, she was jumping up and down giving the biggest smiles!

We had to sit next to stasia, so we got the beetle! fitting!

Happy Birthday! Jen made a wonderful dinner and a beautiful cake, it's weird how birthdays don't seem so important when you have a beautiful baby taking up all your time!

A long time ago time used to go very quickly, now it is slow. Some days are hard and I don't think I am going to make it, but others fly by and I am so happy to be with the people I am! A lot has happened in the last little while. Halle is getting so big and I can't believe the little milestones that make the huge difference! She is now full on trying her hardest to crawl. She hates being held back by her car seat, me, and any other restraining device. She does the cutest thing trying to crawl.... she pushes her butt in the air with her arms and scoots with her head pushed on the ground, its the easiest way she discovered how to move from point A to point B.

Lately

I was talking to Greg last night, and apparently he is mad because everyone is lacking in the Blog department! Well especially me, and rightfully so... there is several things that have happened in the last couple months, that have left me without air to breathe! Let alone Blog! In a jist, for those of you who don't know.....

We moved from Milwaukee back to Utah! With the intent of going to Bozeman for Greg to finish graduate school....

We had the truck comepletely packed full, and ready to hit the road, when Greg got a phone call from the apartments where we were supposed to stay, and we didn't have a place to stay, we used the rest of the day to try and find another place, and after several failed attempts we sat down in sincere prayer to try to figure something out.

We both knew Bozeman wasn't the right option, and we soon figured out that Greg needed to go to do extended sales in California.

Something I am NOT thrilled about, he is away in California for the month of September while Halle and I are house sitting in Midway, Utah, close to Heber.

So within two weeks my entire life was hit by a tornado, but once again I learned a valuable lesson....

There is always another plan that we don't know about and we just have to hold on for the ride!

So if you are in Utah, give me a call!

I have to be especially thankful for my family, Devan for her strength to help at all hours (even early!)

Karadie (and paul) they took our little family in and made us feel so welcome! I love you guys!

Pictures of the little one will come soon, she

is growing so big! We are enjoying her, she misses her daddy so much, they are the best of friends!

Mom and the Bosch

This morning I decided to make cinnamon rolls for Greg and his office because they have been going out early to try and win a competition they are in (and we are hoping they do well, because he could win a iphone4 or even a TV!!!) So I went into the kitchen so early in the morning and started making cinnamon rolls. At one point I thought to myself that I needed to be so quiet so Halle wouldn't wake up.... Then I got a smile on my face as I remembered all the times I would wake up to the Bosch downstairs in my house. I remember that sound so fondly, it meant that my mom had gotten up early to make sure that we were happy once again on a special occasion. I thought to myself, no... I want Halle to wake up! I want her to know and LOVE this sound the way that I do! Once again I am so thankful for my mom and the incredible woman that she is, I can't believe how blessed I am to follow in her footsteps.

Our Precious Little Girl

I am so proud to be a mommy! Everyday between the poop, crying, and spit up I get a little smile from this beautiful little girl. Every night I pray and thank my heavenly father for this precious blessing that he has given Greg and I. She is happy and healthy and that is all that I ask for!!




She is wrapped around our fingers!








I am so excited for the first time she asks me for something and she turns and runs to her father and asks him, because I am positive that he will NEVER be able to say No to her!















After all look at her you cannot say No!






Daddy.....can I have a cookie?.... Greg: Yes



Daddy.... Can I have a bike? Greg:Yes




Daddy...Can I drive your 68 Dodge Charger? ...Greg....."Yes!"

Family

We just love spending time with our adorable little girl! "Our Day" Is Sunday! That is when Greg is off and we soak up all the time we have with him.

Hal n' Al

I couldn't decide which picture was cuter color or black and white! These two are becomig quite fond of each other, in fact Alex taught Halle to play with toys! And Halle is teaching Alex how to cawl! So far he just likes scooting on his back!
