Our life these past four months :)


Jeff and I have been pretty busy these pasts months but it has been so much fun! It is especially nice for me because I am actually able to be up and walk around! Let me tell you though being on bed rest for those 7 months really wore me out. I am still trying to do things that I used to be able to do, it definitely took a toll on my body but it was all worth it so I cannot complain!

I am going to start from a few months ago so that I can keep this up to date and then hopefully I will be better about blogging so that I can save some of our memories :) Sorry this is going to be a long post mainly for me to remember everything that has gone on these past few months. 

Let's see those first few days home were very tiring but so much fun. We loved just hanging out with our little one. To be honest I just felt relieved that she was here after being told so many times that she might not make it. 

Well she was about a month old and I thought I would try to put my ring on.. Well it slipped on but there was a problem.. I couldn't get it off! My finger got extremely swollen and it was so embarrassing I actually had to go to the hospital to get it cut off. Here's a picture... haha





Thankfully its fixed now and I am able to wear it.. haha



We finally have almost finished Addie's room. We were planning on doing her room that weekend but Addie decided she wanted to come earlier than planned which was okay with us!

Here is a couple pictures of her room.. we are STILL working on it and have to add more frames on the right side. Also have to add some curtains that we are currently making but at least its not all a big pile anymore. 








For 4th of July this year we actually got to see Kristen and Cody and it was sooo much fun! Adalyn and baby Liam met (future couple) haha Jeff and I ate at broilers with them. Then later that night we went to a movie with my family instead of doing fireworks this time. Addie did really well during the movie. (I am so glad she can sleep through loud noises).



We had Adalyn's blessing about a month ago and it was so amazing. When Jeff blessed her it was one of the best feelings in the world. I am so thankful for the priesthood in my life. Here are some pictures of that day. 






                                                          Yeah my sister is gorgeous. 


This little boy right here (Braxton) makes me excited to have more kids in the future! I love the way he is with Adalyn. He is sooo adorable and is always taking care of her. He is my first nephew and I have been able to see him grow up from when he was tiny. I love spending Fridays with this guy! Addie was laying on the bed and Brax decided to pick her up and hold her. He is always telling me what Addie likes, what she doesn't like and if shes too hot or too cold. 




Jeff and my family went to the lake and it was so fun. The boys got the day off of work and we were all able to relax and just have a great day. It was also Adalyn's first time on the lake.I had so much fun spending the day with my family. 






Jeff and I went to Newport for the weekend with a bunch of families. My mom and sister were there as well. They all stay up there for the week but Jeff and I only stayed for the weekend because Jeff had to get back to work. One of the nights we were there my mom watched Addie so that we could go on a date. We rode bikes down the beach all the way to the end of the boardwalk. We stopped and got snow cones and then walked on the beach. It was so nice and relaxing. Jeff and I try out best to go out on dates together and have someone watch Addie because we feel that it is really important to our marriage :)





We had the opportuntiy to get some family pictures taken finally! Chloe Allen did an amazing job and here are just a few of the 200 we got! :)













The semester has started to Jeff is super busy but that is okay. It just means hes getting closer and closer to finishing up school. Three times a week he doesn't get home until 10pm because he works all day and then he goes to school until about 9:50. He is such a hardworking man and I am lucky to be his wife. He makes it to where I am able to stay home with my Addie girl. I am also doing some school as well but I am doing a couple online classes. It will take me longer to finish school but I am okay with that. 

I think I am finally up to date on the biggest things that we have done these past few months. Hopefully I will do a better job at updating this thing so that I can look back on it later.
