Houston's 6 Months

Image
Houston is now 6 months old can you believe it? I sure can't. He is a chunky monkey! At this 6 month appointment he was in the 90th for length and 85 for weight. * Rolls over and over and over * Up on all fours rockin away and trying to crawl * Almost holding his bottle, but spoon feeding is a breeze. Opens his mouth and swallows great. (opposite of Pey she held her bottle early, but couldn't quite get the spoon) * Has TWO teeth already! * He was sleeping though the night until last week when he started teething and now i'm trying to get him back on track. * Falls asleep on my shoulder and loves to cuddle. Peyton would arch her back when I'd try to hold her like that. This little man is such a blessing in our life, he's everything I prayed for and so much more. He is calm, happy and healthy. He is a my boy, a mommas boy through and through. He snuggles and cuddles and giggles all day long. I can't get enough of his laugh. He eats a ton! He absolutely ...

Fall and Winter 2012

I have not updated in a really long time and what is going on in our home! Just goes to show you how busy I am with two! Halloween We had a few friends over that night, but I took Peyton around the neighborhood with one of her ward friends Hayden. She was a pony and the cutest pony i've ever seen. I loved the way her tail moved when she walked. All she wanted was suckers and you bet she sure got them! 25th Birthday A quarter century wow i'm old! ;) Mike surprised me with a trip to Disneyland and if you know me that is a the best present this girl could ask for! Spoiled.... I know. Thanksgiving We went to Laughlin with Mikes parents to see where Nanny lives! We met up with some cousins and our Aunt and Uncle McMilian. We had a blast! We ventured out to route 66 and they had a lot of CARS souvenirs  It was like cars land, but in real life. There wer're also a ton of burrors that we're just roamin' the streets. Peyton did amazingly wel...

10. Describe your most embarrasing moment.

My MOST embarrassing moment only two or three people know and it is WAY to long to post about. Sorry maybe if you ask nicely I'll tell your in private. I will share a blonde moment with you.  I use to work at IHOP in Orem and one day a hispanic lady came in and asked if I knew where LaQuinta is? I said hold on I don't know, but I can ask. I went and asked my cooks and they looked at me funny and said they didn't know. I went back and said to her. I'm sorry I don't think we have a LaQuinta that works here.... Oh about 3 months later my family and I are driving to Denver and we pass a LaQuinta on the side of the road and I was like OHHHHH thats a LaQuinta!! So then I had to tell them the story and they've never let me live it down since. Hope that made you smile! Oh and LaQuinta is a hotel by the way :)

9. List 8 people who have influenced you and describe how.

1. Peyton This little girl makes me grow everyday. She is in time out one and giving me a kiss just because the other second. She is so energetic and lovable.  We are a lot alike in so many ways it scares me. She makes me want to be a better person so that she has that good example to look up to. 2. Mike He is the person that knows me best. He knows everything about me. He calls me out when I need it. He taught me to trust and love and live. He makes me laugh everyday. He really is my best friend. 3. Frank My Dad! I don't think he knows how much I look up to him. He is such a good person. He owns his own buisness and works VERY hard every single day. He has done so much for me and I don't know how I will ever make it up to him. 4. My Mom She has gone through a lot in her life and expects nothing. She is always giving and thinking of others. I am my mom everyone says. She is strong and stands her ground. She is smart and beautiful. 5. A YW leader She taught me whe...

8. What are 5 passions you have?

1. Sports I love anything sports. I have my don't get me wrong I really like contact sports. I love playing them the most, but I do like watching them. 2. Disney I am a huge Disney freak, but not a lot of people know that about me. It's kind of a closet nerd thing. It is one of my absolute favorite places to be with my family. 3. Family Of course this is an obvious one. I am very protective of my family. They are everything to me as they should be. 4. Friends I have known a lot of friends since Elementary school! I sure do love those kids! 5. Church I a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints! It is my life and I love it!

7. What is your dream job, and why?

Mike actually asked me this last week, because he is going to start pursuing his dream job. We were driving in the car so I had a little bit of time to think. My first thought was something warm and doing something fun obviously. I thought Disney of course. I would love to work for Disney and I'm not smart enough to be an Imagineer. I wouldn't want to be a Cast Member. I did think being a Princess would be fun, but then it hit me. I would want to be a PLAID! Yes defiantly a plaid. A plaid is basically a Disneyland Tour Guide, but of course much cooler than the average CM (cast member, employee) they are expensive depending if you want the premium or regular VIP packages. Another dream job of mine would be doing something in Hawaii, maybe I have to review snow-cone shops :) I would also love to travel and eat. If I was a well renowned food critic who got paid to travel and review the worlds top restaurants. So there you have i...
