August 27th- In the early morning Justin and I headed to the hospital for my scheduled c-section. I was a horrible basket full of nerves....

Our new HOME!

Let me take you on a tour... (pictures taken April 25th)













Laundry room/mud room. Door leading to the garage. (I didn't take pictures of the garage. Justin has been very hard at work in our yard doing the sprinklers and prepping for a fence and our garage is a mess! But, it is a very nice and big, 3 car garage. Justin loves it!)



Aisley's room.

Keaton and Rich's room.


I caught Rich right at nap time. Love me a sleeping baby!

The main bathroom/kids bathroom.


Master bedroom/our bedroom. (Rich is sleeping in his own room now, but I've left the pack-n-play up in our room for now in case he needs it during the day for nap time. Or sometimes, if Rich wakes up early in the morning I nurse him and then put him back in the pack-n-play instead of in his room so that he doesn't wake up Keaton. Fun fact: Rich is a very noisy baby- especially when he wakes up in the morning! Lots of happy, "I'm awake!" noises!)

Master bathroom.



 Master closet. Yay for plenty of closet space connected right to our bathroom!
The basement. (Unfinished.)
Makeshift playroom.

Empty space/storage space.

Now, back upstairs and outside in our backyard.



Yay for being absolutely in love with our new home! It is perfect for us. Living in West Point, right down the street from both of our parents, has been lots of fun for us and the kids. We live in a wonderful neighborhood with lots of great neighbors. We are slowly, but surely getting to know our new ward and we are enjoying our new callings. (I'm teaching Valiant 9 and Justin is once again the Young Men's President!) Keaton's school is literally less than a 5 minute walk from our house and he loves his school and is excited to start playing t-ball this next week at a newly redone park (the park Justin and I both grew up playing at) which is just a few blocks from our house. It is strange to be settling down without a move coming in our future. It's weird to know that this house and this neighborhood will be the place where we will raise the 3 kids we have now and any others that may join our family in the future. It is exciting! Our home is a happy place to be. Within the next couple of months Justin will have the yard all done! (He has been working his tail off on our yard and I'm so grateful for all he's done and continues to do!!!) When it is finished I'll have to take more pictures of the outside of our house.

The 2nd half of April 2016

April 16th- Rich's sad, swollen eye while he had pink eye. He's still such a cute little guy though. :)

April 21st-
When tornado Aisley hits while Keaton is gone to school.
 Aisley is becoming quite the pro at riding Keaton's small scooter. We are loving all the Spring walks we are getting in (in between the rainy days) lately.

 Pink eye in the OTHER eye now... Poor guy.

I'm for sure the dinosaur lately...!
More pictures of this happy, swollen eyed boy.

Aisley took a tumble out of my mom's car and hit her face on the door. (Luckily, my mom caught her and she only hit the door instead of the concrete!)
 April 22nd-
The super random treat the kids picks from the dollar spot at Target. Ha, ha. Surprisingly, they actually liked them. I had to take a picture cause I was laughing so hard at their asian?? treat!

We went out to dinner at the Spaghetti Factory with our best BFF's the Spicer's. (Where we found out all in one foul swoop that they are expecting baby #2 AND moving to Washington State! We are excited for your new adventure friends, but we will miss you!!!) After dinner we went to City Creek to let the kids play in the play place, where I attempted to get a picture of these cute girls together. It was fun to let Aisley and Annalise play together!
April 23rd-

She told me she was wearing glasses just like her aunt Amber. :) Ha, ha.


April 24th-
All 3 of our kids LOVE their uncle Curtis.
The kids riding the horses at Grandma Shauna's house.

I need this shirt. Ha, ha.
How I'm sure Justin wishes our new house plan was!!!

April 25th-
We've been having some pretty rainy days lately. We made a quick trip to Dollar Tree and barely made it back to the car before the rain hit.

I just really loved this. I too love Sister Hinckley.
When you don't think you're tired, but you are and you fall asleep during "quiet time."
Our back door neighbors have a hole! Let the noisy and dirty construction begin!
 I treated myself to a much needed bath and some chocolate. (My new bathtub is very nearly one of my favorite things about our new house... I've taken a bath more nights than I haven't since we moved in! And, yes, I always have some chocolate and a good book to read each and every time. How could I not?!)
April 26th- This sweet baby trying to patiently wait for me to finish doing my hair so that I could feed him. Isn't he the sweetest thing ever?! I sure think so!

April 27th-
These 2 brothers make me quite happy- each.and.every.day.


Partying hard at Crayson's firefighter birthday party! Complete with real, live firetruck!!! Happy 2nd birthday Crayso!!!

April 28th-
Over the weekend uncle Curtis taught Aisley a new trick! How to cross her eyes! Aisley LOVES learning new things from her uncle Curtis. (The list is becoming quite long- how to block the sun from her eyes, blowing on her hands to warm them up when they are cold, how to pump her legs up and down while swinging...)


Rich loves spending time in the jump-a-roo. He is quite the energetic jumper!
April 29th-
April 30th- I love having a bouquet of flowers in my kitchen. Especially in the Springtime. I treated myself to this beautiful and colorful bunch of flowers.
