{tRae MoNth 7}

I know I say this every time....but I can't believe our little guy is already 7 months old!!! He is such a good baby! ......even though the last couple of weeks he has become VERY busy.He wants to touch and or play with everything that he sees and he scoots from one side of the room to the next. He is a ton of fun! He loves to laugh and play with Roxy, eat baby food, take a warm bath, and play with all his fun toys!! He also said his first word which was of course. Dad.

Trae is at such a fun age that I had my friend Hanna take some fun Valentines pics of him, they turned out so cute! I love them! Thanks so much girl!!

So after Trae's little photo shoot, Hanna's little girl Olivia (who is only 2 1/2 weeks younger than Trae )woke up from her nap happy to see her BF Trae , well by this time he is not happy, as you can see it was someones nap time! ha I love these pics of them, they are classic! All she wanted to do was play! Sorry Olivia.

I'm talking about the month of JANUARY! it seriously flew by! is it because when January started I told MP that this month drags for me???...cause the holidays have come and gone and it's super cold outside and so now it's just January, nothing too exciting! But this month was exciting for us, not only did we put our house up for sale but we have had lots going on between our HUGE ward splitting and both of us receiving new callings, trying to make it to the gym, both of us working, me joining a cooking club(cause I can't cook!~ 1 of my New Years resolutions) MP playing church ball, and lots of fun parties, this month has flown by!!! Here's a little recap of the last month!!

I thought it would be fun to post that 9 years ago today Mp and I had our very first date. Wow!! almost a decade ago! Crazy. The picture below is technically our second date because who really takes pics on a first date anyways. haha-jk. So this was our second date which was the Valentines dance at Northridge. and yes I'm still smitten all these years later!!

That's right!!! our cute little townhouse is officially on the market. We have decided that since interest rates and the prices of homes has become more affordable, it has tempted us to find a new home! We are very excited but also kinda sad at the same time because this is our first home and we have loved it! So if you know of anyone that is interested in a cute townhome, please let them know!!! Wish us luck on our new adventure!

6 mOnTh cHecK uP for t~bAbY!

{ This last week our lil munchkin tRAe had his 6 month check up. He now weighs 19 pounds 3 ounces and is 27 1/2 inches tall. He's huge! and still in the 90th percentile! Doc says he's doing great. She also said his weight gain may start to slow down by his 9 month check up cause he is becoming more active, and that he is! He is now sitting up all by him self, it's so cute~! He loves to sit up and play with his toys. He has also started eating yummy baby food, (loves carrots!) and loves sitting in his high chair! For a while it seemed like he was loosing all of his cute dark hair but in the last couple of weeks it has grown like a weed, it's coming in so thick and cute like his daddy's! I love it! tRAe is so much fun and we love watching him grow........ except it goes soooo fast!!!}

nEw YeArS 2009 ! !

{ I love this time of year when you look back at the last year and think what has happened and what you have accomplished. This year was good to us as we both finished school, got new careers, and welcomed our first little baby boy! We are excited to start a new year full of goals and new dreams!............ Happy New Year ya'll!!}

{ This New Years we celebrated the evening with friends, the wii, games, sparkling cider, food, and Carson Daly. It was nice to get together and kinda just chill for a night! We had lots of fun and missed those that couldn't make it! }

Christmas 2008

{This Christmas was so much fun as we began our festivities on Christmas Eve at Mp's parents house for their annual feast and games! We ate yummy food, played movie charades, and the kids put on The Nativity Scene. Can I just say it was the sweetest thing to watch all of them and Trae was baby Jesus, he did an excellent job. We look forward to this night every year, it's so much fun! And at the end of the night all the kids open their new P.J's. I love this tradition because we always did this when I was a kid! Trae got cute little "Baby's First Christmas" ones...super cute!}

{Christmas morning we made our way back to the Amos home and had a delicious breakfast and opened presents. Trae was definitely a little spoiled this year, thanks everyone! Then later Christmas night we went to my brother's for dinner and more presents! Talk about a wonderful day! Trae was soooo tired at the end of the day, poor guy. We feel very blessed to have had such a wonderful holiday!}
