Two

My girl turns 2! What the!? So much has happened in two years, it's crazy to think how fast it's gone by. Autumn, you are such a delight to be around. We think you are pretty funny but you think you're a whole lot funnier. You are talking like crazy and you are a huge fan of Taylor swift. Yo gabba gabba is a new favorite show of yours and singing has become quite the hobby. When you dance... Oh man, when you dance. You look a little like a sumo wrestler mixed with a person who has just gotten off a boat after weeks at sea. You listen to the most obnoxious music but also love the good stuff your dad plays on the record player. You have Dad wrapped around your finger and its amazing! You love all of your grandparents and you are learning to get along with your cousins one play date at a time. Marley is your BFF and I can't wait for you two to start sharing a room. I love spending my days with you and feel so lucky each day to just be with you. I hope your little sister is just as wonderful as you are. I'm so excited for the next year together.

XOXO































So glad to have you as mine.

San Diego

San Diego was just what we needed before this next baby. It was beautiful as always and the weather was so nice. We spent lots of time eating and playing and having Autumn off a routine. I can't lie though, I'm so happy to be home! It was a fun way to start off Autumns birthday week and she was so spoiled. My mom and siblings were there so Autumn basically got whatever she wanted, when she wanted.

8 weeks left

I can't believe I only have 8 weeks! Ok, more like 8w3d but who's counting? We are so excited to meet this girl. We will be spending this weekend getting her nursery ready and washing clothes. I'm so glad we have everything we need already, it's much cheaper this time around. I am starting to feel a little bit sad that my alone time with Autumn is coming to an end but I know she will be a great big sister to this girl.




Lynsi came into town for a quick visit and she brought Drewbie with her. Autumn and Drew got along great and it may be because thy are only 2 days apart! Speaking of which... They will both be 2 in less than 3 weeks!! Crazy!





Ty and I are taking Autumn to sea world in San Diego in 2 weeks. My dr advised me to stay put (sort of) but I think they have hospitals in California? I have come such a long way in the being flexible department since having Autumn!

This picture sums up my week. Autumn has become obsessed with Barbie! OBSESSED! It's annoying. Ty and I even got into a fight about her being addicted to my phone over it. Here is a picture that turned herself into a fairy...


I love that she loves Barbie but not the digital kind. It's weird and like I said, annoying.

Flying by

This pregnancy seems like it has taken forever but really, it hasn't. I go back and forth with this being our last one and I'm not sure how I feel about it anymore. Ty announced to me that he wants 6 kids and at first my heart dropped and I couldn't imagine having 2 more after this! Then I got excited and one more isn't sounding so bad... Especially if we get that BOY next. But we won't because we want it so bad. ;) 13 weeks left and like I have said a million times, I'm hoping to go 3 weeks early like I did with Autumn but thats very doubtful.




Ty and I were asked to speak at a youth fireside in front of the new Gilbert temple and it was such a great experience. I had never been to one before and I was super impressed with how many kids woke up to get there at 8 a.m.. I was very unprepared and decided to speak about being a convert (what I know best) and then Tyler gave an amazing talk on his past experience as a teen and how as a couple we get to attend the temple regularly. It was so nice afterwards hearing from parents about how touched their kids were by our speaking to them. I hope that from our experiences we are able to make a difference some how.

Leaves!

The kids are loving this super cold weather we are having. I however am not. I think I finally acclimated to this Arizona weather because 50 degrees is freeeeezing! The leaves just barely fell this week so they are taking full advantage of playing in them and my newly mopped floors can tell. Autumn doesn't seem to be phased by the cold and I love it!








We don't own a rake anymore... Weird.

So, we are having another girl and couldn't be more thrilled! It took a few days to adjust to the idea of two girls but Autumn is such a sweetheart that I am already excited.




Only 17 Weeks left!!



I came into my room to find this girl dressed in my glasses and her daddy's scarf. LOVE HER.


We got to go to see Life of Pi in 3d with Marleys class and it was so entertaining. Miles and I were freaked out through most of it but luckily we had each other... I think he even screamed like a girl a few times.



Mars and Autumn are still connected at the hip and fall more in love with each other every day. So sweet!







And this weather is awesome! We are loving playing outside after school and the weekend weather has been amazing. So NOT looking forward to summer :(












Madi is in town from her busy DC life and her and Autumn have been getting along great! She's so sweet.






Christmas is over officially but we have a few surprises left for mars and miles. Stay tuned for next week!!
