Makenna gets bigger and bigger every time I take a picture of her. I really notice when I start comparing pictures from just a week ago. She is almost out of this dress already that is 0-3 months. She is just a really long baby and the dress is almost too short for her. But, it still looks really cute on her. I think the dress makes her look bigger too. She has the greatest little tan though - Great for her! She is just amazing, I love my little girl!

This is the season for parties! I have kept myself busy with the vinyl lettering. It is the best product because I love it and it's so addicting. The ladies here just go crazy when they come to the vinyl lettering parties or see the idea catalog. I also have been putting it up every where in my home. It's like chocolate, you just can't have enough of it. Once you try it for the first time you just want more. That is the best way to describe it, but Sam has been great staying home with the kids since I've been hosting parties at other ladies homes. Sam is actually a great care taker when he puts his mind to it. I have enjoyed getting out of the house too and meeting new people in the area. It's worked out great for both of us - I think....
The newest thing this week is that I have finally been approved to sell furniture. I have been waiting forever for this. The requirements are so much more strict and harder these days to be able to establish a furniture vendor account. The timing was just right and I am just so happy. I am excited because I can compete even better now that I don't have to worry about over head costs. You probably can't tell that I am excited.
If any of you have seen our living room set that we got as a wedding gift, it was from the same company. I just love it and they have even better stuff now. I'm going to gradually start making my home into a little mini show room, I'm just dying thinking about selling my refurbished table that I love and refinished. If I had room for two dining room tables I would totally keep it. I just love my matching hutch too. But, maybe I'll try to keep it in the family, I also have started a little hobby in making cornices and I am addicted to that too, as you can tell in the picture. I'll have to take pictures of all the other ones I have made for my master bed room and nursery.

Stockton likes to hang out by my harp lately. Well, I caught him eating some paper the other day and I about died when I picked it up and saw that it was my favorite harp song. I just didn't know what to do, I was devastated. I had that sheet music from my old harp teacher in Logan, Stockton will eat any kind of paper he can get his hands on. I catch him all the time hanging out behind my harp and I caught him in this picture and he looks like he is up to something.

Makenna has been the best baby. We love having a girl in the house. She is a really good sleeper and eater. She is getting so big too. I love playing dress up with her. I didn't realize how much fun it really is dressing up a girl. This is her blessing dress and she looks so adorable in it. We just love her to death.
Stockton has been a little confused about what she is and why I am always holding her. He does have moments where he just has to have me hold him too. Can you imagine me carrying her and Stockton around. It's a handful.
Welcome to our humble home. This is our new residence in Nampa, Idaho and we just built it in February 2007. We have only lived in it for almost 3 months. We love it and are so happy to be more settled as a family. We had it all decorated and livable 3 days after we moved in. I am a work horse when it comes to putting a house together. I just get it all done and decorated to feel like its mine. Plus, I was 9 months pregnant when we moved in and I was in the "cleaning" phase of the pregnancy. But, we do have neighbors now and we are getting started on our landscaping. We are just waiting on Mr. Vinyl to get over here to put up a vinyl fence for the kids and I for the summer. (Hint Hint DAD!) We know you are coming soon, but it seems like too long to wait. Stockton loves going outside every chance he gets.

Welcome family and friends to our blog site. We decided to do this so you can all come and check out what we are up to and watch our children grow up since we aren't around to tell you about every cute thing they do.
Sam and I are enjoying our new house and enjoying our 2 wonderful babies. We are very busy with them, but wouldn't change it for the world. Sam is working for Red Robin and has done tremendously well. I am of course working a full time job as the little home maker. I love having the opportunity to stay home with Stockton and Makenna because they grow up so fast right in front of me. Enjoy our blog and keep checking back for more pictures and family events.
