Lovin Life!

I love my life! Lately I just feel so overwhelmed with gratitude for all I have! I spend less time trying to keep the house clean (partially because since the move its impossible) and more time playing, reading, and loving my kiddos!

As most of you know, we bought our first home and moved in the first of April, we are absolutely LOVING it and I will post pictures soon! But here are some fun pictures and updates in the mean time!

Spring soccer season is upon us and we are starting up with Shawn once again coaching 3 teams! Which means lots of time outside at games for us! At this last game one of the boy's had some newborn bunnies and Jaden just LOVED them! We actually have a little bunny that tends to frequent our front yard and is very sweet! He will even come eat carrots right out of your hand! Jaden is in LOVE with him and i'm quite a fan as well seeing as I get all the benefits of having a part time pet bunny without the work!


Ella Kate is continuing to grow at a rapid pace! I took her to her 4 month apt..even though she was closer to 5 mo at the time..and she is doing great! She only weighs 12lbs so she is a little one but with cheeks you cant help but squeeze and kiss!

She has such a sweet personality and really is such a joy! The dr said that she is strong enough to start on solids and so I think Easter would be a great day! She has already been on rice cereal for a few weeks and loves it so I'm hoping food goes as smoothely!

She had quite a cold the last few weeks and here she is with a super high fever but still so sweet!

She loves to be sitting up and standing and is loving the saucer!


I love conference weekend and this past session was no different! Here is Jaden and daddy playing between sessions! Jaden is SO into his daddy lately! i can't blame him though :)

A few weeks ago Jaden and I planted some herbs and flowers just in the window seals, well Jaden is hooked! We got a kit to make cucumbers and here he is planting with daddy!

We are trying to take full advantage of the sunny days we have! Jaden still loves the zoo and Ella also enjoyed her first trip! Like I said, she is the easiest sweetest baby!

The weekend before the move, my niece Marrissa came to stay with us! Jaden always enjoys having her over, especially for extended stays! It was also so nice to have someone for him to play with while I finished up some packing! It was snowing, so what else to do but have a beach/camping party!

I feel so blessed to have all that I have, my hard working amazing husband who is an incredible father, my two adorable kids! A beautiful home that is actually our very own, a religion that sustains me, and so very much more! I will post more about the move and pictures of our new home soon, as for now, I'm going to go enjoy my many blessings!
