Still playing with her kitchen

Well Christmas was definitly fun this year! Lily enjoyed everything she got from puzzles to a Kitchen. When we came down the stairs she was wearing my high heels and as she got to the bottom of the stairs she turned and looked at the presents by the tree and kicked off the heels and ran straight for her kitchen, it was so funny! Everything she opened she would look at Nate and I with an "O" face and go Oooooohh! She was so much fun this year, LIly even opened some of her own presents, I didnt expect her to do that yet but she was way into it, it was great :) So we had a wonderful christmas spending sometime with our families and relaxing at home!

Here we go!

Well if you haven't heard, Nate is officially a future soldier with the US Army! He will leave for Basic training March 23rd and will be gone for 9 weeks their and then gone to AIT(training for his job for the army) for 16 weeks.So he will be gone for a total of about 6 months, and will come back lookin like a fine piece of meat in uniform! Yay for me!!! :) Well that is the only thing that is new in our lives right now.I will keep you all updated on the happenings!

Fall and Halloween

We had some fun this Fall, We went to Gardner village and then to a pumpkin patch! Lily had alot of fun doing those things. She really has quite the personality, she knows what she wants and if she doesn't get it then you better look out!! lol...but she is still alot of fun!

We had one thing bad happen this month, nate lost his main job, but he bounced back very very quickly thanks to one of his friends and he had a job interview the next day after he lost his job. Nate is also looking into joining the Army to get schooling and a stable job.

That is about it that has really happened since we blogged last..Sorry it's been a little while!

Halloween was really fun, we had our annual family halloween party at my sisters and we played a coupled of games and ate alot of food!! :) We dressed up and Nate was Mickey Mouse, Lily was Minnie Mouse, and I was Daisy Duck! It was alot of fun dressing up this year, Lily loved wearing her Minnie dress!!!

Well thats about it....We will try to blog more!! :)

Yay We have internet!!!

Yes, you read right we have the internet finally!! Well its been awhile since we have updated...but it's kind of hard without internet access at our house! So everything is still the same since we last blogged..this time I will post some pictures of our new townhome!! I wish I had more to talk about...Let's see....... well Lily is becoming a PRO at throwing temper tantrums so she is just a peach at those times, but majority of the day she is the cutest and sweetest little thing!! She gives perfect little kisses, she loves to come up behind us and kiss on our legs or our backs it is truely adorable!!
Oh we are planning a trip to Disneyland in October!! I really hope it works out because we could use a vacation more then anything, oh and we just want to take Lily, we know she will love the rides she is able to go on!!
Well that's all for now you will hopefully be hearing from us more often!

Sorry it's been awhile!

Alright so it has been awhile since we have blogged so I will fill you on what has happened in the last month and a half...

Well, Lily turned the big O-N-E which is crazy to still think about. We had a tinkerbell birthday party for her at South Jordan park, and she got lots of toys and clothes!

I dont know if we have mentioned this, but nate got a job at Jordan Valley Medical Center as the Services Coordinator, and he is still loving it which is great, and it helps pay for school so he can go into nursing.

And we bought a new townhome in Saratoga Springs. It is a very cute townhome and a great place we can grow in for awhile! We will get pictures as soon as it is decorated and there arent little odds and ends all over the place. I am having a hard time adjusting from my house I have grown up in for almost 26 yrs minus the 6 months nate and I rented a place when we first got married. But I am definitly having a hard time. I am going to miss living with my mom very much and being able to go to my mom at night and talk to her whenever I needed. I just cant wait until we are all settled in and things can feel normal.

I just want to say thank you to my mom for letting me, nate and then when lily arrived, live with her for almost two years. I dont know where we would be if it wasnt for her! I love you so much mom :)

Well That is about all that has happened. I hope we can blog again soon!!

HAPPY EASTER!!

Well we had an awesome easter.We went to church and had a good time there.And then went to my grandparents house and ate some good food and had an egg hunt which Lily participated in with our help of course!! After my grandparents we headed to nate's parents and had an easter egg hunt there as well! It was a good first Easter with our sweet Lily bug! And about a week ago we had some families photos done and then some individual ones of Lily and here are some of them they did...now these are just samples the finished product is going to be so so so great!!! (I will post pictures of today later when I get a chance!)

On St Patricks Nate,Lily and I went to lunch and then bummed around gateway mall. It was so nice being able to finally be outside and not have to wear a jacket! It was so nice and warm!! Well while roaming about the mall we stopped and watched the water shows they do at the fountain, and boy did Lily love that. She was laughing so hard it was hilarious! Well that is about it, it was just a fun day out in the warm sun.... We are all ready for more warm weather so Lily can be outside more and more :)

Oh and some other new news! As of yesterday Lily has started to walk behind her push toy! She is getting closer and closer to walking it is so cute watching that little body walk behind the toy! YAY LILY!! :)
