Changes!

First off, Mike has accepted an offer to teach the high school and middle school choirs in Morgan!! We are so excited and cannot wait for him to embark on this new adventure!

Morgan is an hour away and Northeast from here. So that means we are going to be moving. We are excited to move to this small town and we already feel very welcome because everyone has asked if we need any help. Got to love small towns. :) So our house is on the market and here's to hoping that it sells really fast.

We had been searching for so long and now that we know this is where we're going it all feels right and good. We know this is what we were waiting for. It's amazing how things will always fall into place when they need to. We also feel like it's the place we need to raise our family. We know it's not the best time to sell, but we know it's right and we'll be taken care of as long as we trust in our Heavenly Father. He will do and give what we need.

So here's to our new adventure! Wish us luck!

Just a little FUN!

Mike had the day off and so I decided to take some pictures. We were just having fun and laughing. I will always cherish days like these. :)

I wonder what Sam is thinking?

Help! My dad is torturing me with love!

Okay I love my daddy! And I love this photo!

I think my son just might be trying to strangle me? And I'm happy about it?

I had to hold him there, but he thought it was so funny!

So in return he had to hold me still. :)

Just some fun on Mom and Dad's bed!

I really am trying to smile mom. Really!

Didn't make it to bed yet again. Or maybe he meant to since he's using Elephant as a pillow. Also notice his shirt. He has attempted putting his shirt on fully this time.

Oh, I guess he didn't quite make it. :) One arm through the head hole. hehe.

And backwards. He's so cute!

So content!

Oops! Spoke too soon.

Or perhaps not. That was quickly passed over. Just gas! ;)

And finally PROOF that my little girl smiles in response to your smile. Isn't it just adorable!

One Month

Can you believe Evelyn is one month old now? She is getting so big! Time has absolutely flown by. I just wanted to post on here her stats.

Weight: 9.9 lbs

Length: 22 3/4 in.

She's gained two pounds since birth and grown 2 3/4 inches. She's been having so many growth spurts. She sleeps really good for us and last night she made her first 5 hour stretch. Yay! She also is doing really well with holding her head up and she already smiles in response to your smile. She has an absolutely adorable smile. I still have yet to get it on camera because you never have your camera when you really need it right? But life is great and Evelyn is a joy to have.

Graduation!

As most of you know Mike graduated in December from the University of Utah in Choral Music Education. Yesterday he walked and it was absolutely amazing to see him accomplish this wonderful goal. We're all so proud of him! So a little funny joke... Mike has a BM and his tassle is brown, so if you put two and two together BM stands for Bowel Movement and well we all know bowels are brown. So it seemed to fit right together. We all had a good laugh about that when we were at the little get together at mom's. We want to thank everyone who has helped Mike attain this goal and thank you to all that shared in his moment of joy yesterday. We love you all.

Easter!

EGG COLORING!!

Sam loved coloring the eggs!

Finished eggs. Mike had to get a Cubs egg in there.

EASTER HUNT!!

He had so much fun looking for the eggs and he actually somewhat understood it.

EASTER OUTFITS!!

ATTEMPTED SIBLING PHOTOS :)

Easter was really great this year. Evelyn brought so much joy to our family and Sam had so much fun. Every holiday is getting more and more enjoyable. He loves his book about Jesus that he got. We hope we can teach him the true meaning of Easter so that he'll know and really appreciate its meaning. Easter was a joy!

Evelyn & Samuel

I thought I'd put a few pictures of Evelyn and Samuel on here so you can see how big they're getting.

I'm 2!

He still finds these odd places to fall asleep. :)

Yes, that's his diaper and the shorts are on backwards. My son the low rider. Apparently it's too hard to pull pants up over his diaper.

Yet again. :)

I love to smile!

Hmm... I'm thinking...

I'm so cute!

What up yo?

Comfortable?

So Evelyn is always caught in this neck breaking very uncomfortable position. Well at least to me it is, but for her it's heaven. The moment you straighten her head she'll wake up or just immediately go back to that position. :)
