Oh man

Oh man! Payten has actually started crawling!! It is so fun to see her go!! She LOVES it! She is all over the place! I went and bought gates the other day, and she does NOT like having them up! She wants to go everywhere I go. But I don't want her on the tile just yet. She still falls quite a bit.

I have been starting to really try and cook more healthy meals. Because once Payten starts eating I don't want her to get into the habits her daddy and I are already in. I am loving cooking with chicken!! There are so many different things you can make with chicken!! But the other night I actually made "Taco Pizza". It was so YUMMY!!!!!! Here is were you can get the recipe if you want. I was a little nervous about it, but it was amazing!

We have been having so much fun having Brinley everyday! Payten always wants to play with her! Although she is still a little too young to do anything, I can tell they will be best friends!!! Brinley is starting to coo a little bit here and there, and she will start when Payten is 'blabbering' away. It is so fun to listen to!!!

We have been watching my parents puppy for about a week, and they are coming to get her today. And to be honest, I will miss having her. She is a Yorkie. So she is TINY! Surprisingly she has been way good with the babies. Usually she is very edgy around Payten. So it has been a lot of fun for us!!

Jonny has been sick with that nasty flu crap that is going around. Its been a rough couple days for him. But he is finally feeling better and is back at work like crazy. I miss him when he works all the time, but at the same time I have to be so greatful that I have such a wonderful husband that is willing to work 60 plus hours a week so I can stay home with our beautiful baby!!!

Its been awhile..

It has been a little bit since my last post. We have been crazy busy lately!


Payten is getting so big!! She is ALMOST crawling! She is always on her hands and knees, so once she realizes that she can move, man are we in for it! She will be into everything! But I am still so excited for it!!! Its definitely a bittersweet moment.


She now has a little friend to play with everyday! I babysit my cousin's baby. She is such a little doll and Payten LOVES Brinley!! I can't wait until they are both able to play with each other!! Brin is such a good baby and I love having her here! It definitely made me realize I want my kids a few years apart!!! People that have twins, props to them!!


We have the best friends!! We have so much fun when we all hangout!!! :)
The girls!!!
We are MACHO

Doctors..

So Payten had her 6 month well check visit today. She is growing just perfect!! He said she is tall and skinny for her age. She is in the 90th percentage in height for her age but only 40th for her weight. But he said that's normal.

But sitting at the doctor got me thinking, why do they tell you a time knowing they are never on time!! I am always around 10 minutes early for doctor's appointments, but there I think I would be perfectly fine being 20 minutes late and still have to wait forever. I hate when I get there and I am waiting for awhile to have someone come in and go right back! Its very frustrating. Especially when I know they are going to the same doctor. Why do doctors offices do this? I know its not necessarily the doctor's fault, because they take the time each patient needs, but the people that do scheduling need to keep that in mind rather than try to get as many people in as possible.

I guess that's why they get the big bucks!

My first post!

Hi everyone! I decided I finally want to start a blog! I hope I can get the hang of it soon!!

Here is just a little about us:
Jonny is now working at Fusion Imaging. He loves the job and the people he works with! He is planning on getting his real estate license soon!

I am doing hair just out of my house while I am a stay at home mom! I absolutely LOVE it!!

Jonny and I met almost 4 1/2 years ago, and our lives have been fabulous ever since! He was 2 years older than I was in school, and we never meet until he was already graduated. The night we met was one of the best nights! I remember we went to Sports Authority and played around and then decided to go on a drive. Jonny was driving and Brooke was up front with him. For some reason they thought it would be fun to stick their hands out the windows and see who could stand it longer. (It was the end of October and this time.) We ended up running into a dead end, and Jonny would not lose, so I had to reach up and steer for him to get us out. I don't remember who won, but I remember thinking, this is a guy I would love to date!

We ended up dating for 2 1/2 years and then we were engaged! He proposed so sweet! He wrote a poem for me and took me out on his deck around sunset. (We always went out there and looked at the view so it was special) he looked at me and read the poem, and then got down on bended knee and made my dreams come true!

We were married in the Salt Lake Temple on January 16th 2009. Our luncheon was at La Caille. (Not sure on the correct spelling) and our reception was at the Ogden Golf and Country Club. Our day was absolutely amazing!

The honeymoon was so amazing! We went on a cruise to Mexico! I had never been to Mexico and he had never been on a cruise. It was fun to experience something new together!

A few months later we got a puppy! He is a Shih-tzu. His name is Buster and he is such an amazing dog! Jonny picked him good! :)

We found out around Thanksgiving of the same year that we were expecting a little bundle of joy! We were so excited and couldn't wait to tell the families! Obviously they were thrilled!

Payten Kay was born on July 26th 2010. 7 lbs and 19 inches long. She had one heck of a cone head and a full head of hair and never lost any of it!


The labor was easy, it just took forever! I was in labor for around 12 hours until they decided it was going to be best to deliver her via c-section. I was so nervous, but looking back I am so happy that's how she came. The recovery was easier than I ever would have expected.





Payten is now 6 months old and is absolutely wonderful!! She is the happiest baby I have ever seen! She is constantly smiling and giggling! She is already sleeping through the night (She has been since we brought her home). She is now sitting up by herself and is rolling all over the house. Yes she rolls, no scooting or crawling, just rolling. I think she will be scooting/crawling soon. I am so excited but I also don't want it to come yet. She will be into everything! And she is getting too big too fast!
