Happy Halloween!!!

But I'm HUNGRY...

I went to Ogden a while ago to try and help Kurls, who was supposed to be on bed rest. She is very bad at bed rest by the way, but I loved going out to spend time with my fam out there. On Saturday morning we went to the girls soccer game. Jaren was sitting in between Kurls and I grossing us both out...


Me: "Jaren, stop picking your nose, it's gross."
Kurls: "Jaren, stop it, now."
Jaren stops momentarily while he is laughing. He quickly begins again though, this time he starts eating them after he fishes them out.
Kurls and I: "Jaren, stop that is gross!"
Jaren: "Well I'm hungry and there is nothing to eat but my boogers!!!"


I couldn't help it I started laughing hysterically.
Then I took a picture to record the moment.
Apparently I've never been truly hungry.

1 Month, 2 Month, 3 Month, 4....

Spencer at the hospital the day he was born getting burped.

Our sweet baby boy is four months old. Actually he is closer to 5 months now but I am horrible at blogging, the fact that I left my picture card in Ogden when I went out there didn't help much either. But I have gotten it now, thanks to Kurls, so I can post some pictures.

About a week before I had Spencer I had a mom in my ward tell me that she missed that time in her life so much. I didn't understand what she was talking about. All I knew was that I was so tired of feeling sick all the time and just wanted it to end, I couldn't wait for him to come out.

About a week after he was born I started to understand what a special time we are at in our lives and understand what that mom ment when she said that she missed those times. I can't say that I miss being pregnant or that I love being pregnant, but I can say that it is an amazing miracle; and when I hold my baby boy in my arms, or watch him kicking and playing, I never want these days to end. He is such an amazing blessing in our home and our lives, the time is going by way to quickly and it makes me want to cry if I think about it too much.

It is amazing to me how much having a child has changed me. My life plan and goals have completly changed. Suddenly getting a master's and having a career are not important at all to me and all I want is to be able to be the one at home with my children, to see all of their firsts. I'm so gratefull for Carl and how hard he works so that I can just be a mom and be with our little man. Life is wonderful and our little man is growing way to fast, we are loving every minute of it though.

The Cabin...

Walt and Sus invited us to go camping for the weekend. I was so excited because Carl said that he would have the time to go. When it came down to it we didn't have enough time to get the camper ready and get up the mountain in time to have fun that night and we were a little nervous about taking Spencer tent camping just yet. Mom and Dad Foley were kind enough to let us use their cabin so we headed up there. Spencer had a good time, other then the sleeping part, he didn't do very well with that. Hence, Carl and I were very tired the rest of the weekend. I realized that I need to learn to take pictures of people other then Spencer when I looked through the pictures on our camera. But, since Spencer is the only one on our Camera here are a few pictures of him fron the cabin weekend.

Blessing Day

We blessed Spencer on July 6, 2008. He was such a good little man for it. He started the day off by sleeping completly through the night for the first time. When we woke up I asked Carl if he had woken up with Spencer, thinking he had and someone I didn't hear it. Carl said he hadn't and asked if I had. When we realized neither of us had Carl went running into Spencer's room to make sure he was still breathing. He of course was breathing and still asleep. We were shocked that he had slept that long.

This is Spencer very tired and in his blessing outfit that my sister Melody, AKA Bubs, was kind enough to make for us out of my wedding dress.

This is a family shot in our yard on his blessing day.

I may be little, but does size matter?
