We are home!!!

Ok, we actually have been home for almost a week but I have been trying to get back into everything and haven't been feeling the best. I am so happy to be home, just wish it wasn't Florida we had to come home to:) As for our trip it was good. I can't say it was wonderful because I believe that we were in the car everyday of the trip. But it was really nice to see all of our families and meet new ones. The weddings went great, both looked just great. The first wedding (Gabes little sister) was at the Portland temple and in the church building. The church was done up very nice and besides the cake getting there 10mins after the reception started it was great. And I am sorry I don't have but three pictures from that one and they are off my phone because I forgot it at the house. The 2nd wedding (one of Gabes older sisters) was in the back yard of his parents house. It also went very well and was very nice with no rain. We were all worried that it was going to rain all week but thankfully the sun come out a few hours before and it was wonderful, a little cold but wonderful. I did get pictures of that one, seeing how I couldn't forget it when it was at the house. After the weddings we went to see my brother who lives a few hours away in OR. We stayed the night with him and got to see a lot of my side of the family. Next we took the 9 hour drive to my parents in NV. There my dad and the rest of my family got to met Adeleah for the first time. I got to met Lydias baby Ira and my older sister Jodies fiance and his two kids. The only one of my family I didn't get to see was my brother Mike who is in ND. (He just got a job there and hopefully soon his wife and son will get to be with him. Anyway, after that we went back to Gabes parents and we all flew out to CO and then got in the car and drove to SD for the family reunion in Custer State Park. The reunion was fun and it was nice to met some of Gabes dads side of the family. The state Park was really nice and we saw wildlife everyday. One day we took a 6 mile hike, that you had to cross the stream about 17 times. We also saw Mt. Rushmore and more buffalo then I ever thought I would see in my life time. And I would like to say a big thank you to those who put on the reunion, it was great. Well finally we made it back down to CO for the last night of our trip, we stayed in a really nice hotel with Gabes brother and sister in law. That night I took Adeleah swimming for the first time. I don't think she knows what to think in a pool, but it was fun to take her. Anyway after 25 days of being gone we flew home and let me just say it is nice to be in my own bed again.

Update on Adeleah, she is doing great, growing, and just wonderful.

P.S. If you want to see pictures from the trip you can go to the right and there is a link to my photos. Hope you are all doing well and having a wonderful summer.

What Gabe found......

in the back yard........ a turtle.


It has rained here a lot and so we have standing water in the back yard and I guess this little guy wanted a little swim. Gabe found him swimming in the water. I think he or she looks a little mean to me.
And I had to put a picture of Adeleah up.
We leave in two days for our trip and so that is about all that we are up to right now. I will post as our trip goes along. Hope everyone is starting to enjoy the warm weather and everything that comes with it.

My little sister had her wonderful little baby boy yesterday. She had to have a c-section because when they went in for her check-up they found that he was then breech and on his cord. So she stayed and they set a time to do the c-section. All is well with mother and baby. And I am so happy for my little sister and her husband. This is their 2nd little boy.

Pictures

It has been raining here for the last 2 1/2 days and so I thought it would be a good time to post pictures and do a little update.
These first two are from today. Adeleah in her chair, she likes to sit up so that she can see what is going on.
This was sunday after church, I love this little dress from OshKosh B'gosh and her little shoes. I finally remembered to put the shoes on her, a few weeks ago they were still to big and now they won't fit for long.
This was also sunday, I was feeding her after church and this is how she went to sleep on me.
A picture of Adeleah and I on mothers day.
These three were from me playing around. I have some roses in my back yard and this one was just so pretty I wanted to try and take some with it and Adeleah. The rose was about the size of her head. This one I just love because it is just so much drama.

She was happy for some of the pictures. And if you are wanting to know, yes, I am doing cloth diapers.
Dress from Uncle Seth and Aunt Sarah.
These last two are just ones from sundays of Adeleah in different dresses. I love her ducky one, (my mom and Gabe just had to have it for her when we went to the outlet mall).
As for us not much has been going on here. Last week Gabe had to be gone for a few days with the navy, which left me with Adeleah. I think it went well, it is just really nice when Gabe comes home and helps out.
We went and saw the new X-men movie, it was really good. Adeleah could careless about the movie, didn't cry because of the it but she did cry because she wanted to stand or eat the whole time.
Next week we are leaving for a very long trip to see family. We are going out to Oregon for two weddings (both sisters of Gabe) that are a week apart on Saturdays. Then we are going to go see some of my family that is a few a hours away in Oregon, just over night. Then we are driving down the 9 hours to my parents house for a week, my dad will finally get to met Adeleah. After that we are flying out to South Dakota with Gabes family for a family reunion. And then finally about 3 1/2 weeks after we left home, we will fly home. It is going to be a very long trip full of family and hopefully lots of fun. And hopefully a somewhat happy Adeleah through it all.
But anyway that is about all that is going on with us.

Happy Mothers Day!!!!

I just want to say to all mothers, grandmothers, great grandmothers, soon to be mothers and those who are a mother in some way Happy Mothers Day!!!!!!!!!!!

For my mothers day Gabe got me a new phone and a wonderful card (the card made me cry). But I must say that what he really gave me was the best gift in all the world, my wonderful baby girl. I am so thankful to have Adeleah. She is the best baby and just a joy to have around. I love her so very much and can't picture my life without her. So thank you so much honey for giving me the very best gift I could ever ask for.

2 Months

Yesterday we went in for Adeleahs two month appointment. They say she is doing great and looks wonderful. She is 10lbs 8ozs and 22 1/4" (50 percentile for both). She also got her two month shots, I made Gabe come with us so that he could be the bad guy and hold her during it. All and all she did pretty good, didn't like the shots but got over it. The only thing now is that she wants her mommy a little more and last night wasn't great for me. She woke up a few more times than normal.

Video

Video of Adeleah talking.

Things here have been good, not much going on. Adeleah goes in for her two month checkup tomorrow. I can't believe she is two months already. The time just goes by so fast, it feels like just yesterday that we had her and now..... Anyway, you all know how it is when you have a baby. And man do I love her. She is a great baby. She has her days when she makes life not so fun. But Gabe and I wouldn't have it any other way. The only thing we would ask for is that she stop growing so fast.
