Where does the time go?

Well I have been looking at my blog and realized that I haven't posted for quiet some time. Where does the time go? My baby is now 4 months old and can not believe that these 4 months seem to have flown by so fast. I have been truly enjoying my little girl and so grateful for her sweet spirit. I wonder what she will be like when she gets older? She is so calm and hardly cries unless she is tired or her brother hurts her (which is often). She is very easy going and wonder if she will keep that disposition when she gets older. She has been sleeping through the night since 2 months and so feel like I have been able to enjoy her more than I did when Weston was a baby because I actually get some sleep. We went down to California for Spring Break which was nice to get out of the fickle weather here. I flew back on an airplane for the first time by myself with 2 kids,which actually was fine since the airplane wasn't full and Kennedi slept the whole time.
I have also been able to finally finish Weston's bedroom and I really do love it. My wonderful husband helped to bring a lot of my ideas to life. He built me picture frames and then helped me to screw the liscense plates on the frames. Well here are some pictures...

Here is a picture of Kennedi at 2 months:

Everyone thinks Weston is such a good kid until they get to know him and realize he is a handful. Since quiting my job - I have been spending lots of time with him and sometimes I wish I can go back to my job so that I dont have to keep him out of trouble. He is so crazy and has so much energy and he never stops. He is also a monkey - always climbing, jumping and hanging off things. (Here is him in our closet)

My Life As of Now

Well life has been a little crazy and I have to admit that I have been in survival mode for the last couple weeks. For the last 3 weeks we have been to the doctor once a week. Weston and Kennedi have been way sick. Two weeks ago, Weston woke up in the middle of the night barely breathing and crying. I thought that he had swallowed something. We went to the doctor and found out he had croup. We tried to keep Kennedi and Weston seperate but didn't work well and so now Kennedi is sick. In which we went to the doctor today for her to be tested for RSV and other things and also found out she has an ear infection. So pretty much we have been stuck at home since no one can come play since we are sick. But I feel like the end of their sickness is coming soon. I am sure ready for warm weather and to be outside. Kennedi has been a pretty good baby and loves to look around. She does like to be held and likes to sleep a lot. I started up piano lessons last week and so trying to juggle the two kids while teaching 18 students (not all at the same time). I also have been having a really hard time taking pictures of Kennedi, so I tried to make more of an effort the last week and so here are some pictures.

Weston and Daddy building a cabinet for our bathroom. Joe has been gone a lot with work and so it was some much needed daddy-son time... (notice the safety glasses)









Weston in his bedroom showing off his new pajamas. He is getting so big he is starting to wear 3T clothes. Yikes!


Weston and Kennedi in their jammies. He loves being a big brother and loves give kisses to Kennedi even though we dont always want him to.

She has arrived!!

Well she has finally arrived. Tuesday night I checked into the hospital around 11:30 pm. When I checked in I was only at a 2 and they were hesitate to check me in but told me to hang out for an hour to see the progress. Well no real progress was made in that hour but my contractions were getting harder and I thought well they better have a good plan to get me out of this bed because I am not going anywhere. In the next hour I moved from a 2 to a 5. And then progressed even faster than that. She was born at 4:50 AM so needless to say we didn't get any sleep. So only 5 hours of real labor. She weighed 6 pounds 13 ounces (a lot different from Weston who was 9 pounds). We named her Kennedi Cherie. Here are some pictures...

Just waiting

Well I decided that I should maybe update the blog since a month has already gone by. We are just patiently (or I should say trying to be patient) waiting for our little girl to arrive. It is crazy that I am due tomorrow and yet I am so ready to be done.
So other things we have been up to is Joe is heavy into his basketball team. I feel like he is never home but he loves coaching the 9th grade team so I try not to complain. Weston is busy like normal and I have been busy at teaching piano lessons, working at Intermountain Health Care and taking care of a 2 year old. There never seems enough time in the day to get things done.

Some Christmas pics...

Looking thru his stocking - all he wanted for christmas was candy and a train set. He was super excited about the candy more than anything else. (By the way I made the stocking - aren't I talented :))


Weston being Joseph and his coursin Kaylee being Mary and Joe was the donkey - who knows why "Joseph" got to ride the donkey too. Maybe cause he is two.


Such a cute Joseph - and yet he didn't want to keep his costume on


Weston riding a pretend horse at the Discovery Gateway. They even had a cowboy hat he could wear while riding it. He is such a stud (Can you tell I like this kid?)

Winter Days

Well here is some much needed pictures.. Joe has been home for the last couple days and I am loving it. It is so nice to have him home and get to kind-of relax. Since he has been home we have had some big snow storms. Weston has been loving the snow and some days it is really hard to get him to come in.



We made a massive snowman in which it was so big it was the talk of the neighborhood. Joe is such an overachiever on snowmans. I tried to make it smaller but he insisted on something bigger.
