New House

We moved into a new place a couple of weeks ago. We were renting a place that was about 850 sq ft and with 6 us now it was just way too small. I hate moving but it was worth it to get into something bigger. Some family and friends have asked for me to post pictures so here they are. Also stay tuned I have a bunch of pictures to post and I will probably get those up soon.

Levi's Blessing

Yesterday we had Levi blessed. Jared gave Levi a beautiful blessing, and it was a great day! We were lucky enough to have some family in attendance (have I mentioned how much I LOVE having family live near us?). Levi is a lucky boy to have been surrounded by so many people that love him on his blessing day.We really do have the best friends and family out here!Here we are with Jared's sister Ariane and her family. Aren't her kids the cutest? Also I want to give a shout out to our brother in law Justin who came to the blessing right after working a 24 hour shift at the hospital.My cute family! Too bad none of the kids are looking at the camera.

Isn't he just the cutest baby ever? I love him!!

Update

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I forgot how much time and energy a newborn baby takes up. I wanted to let you all know that we are still alive. The kids are doing well. Landon and Tori are getting ready to start school next month, Ella is as crazy as always, and Levi is growing. A good portion of my days are spent feeding Levi and so I have been able to get in a lot of reading and TV time.

Here are some pictures from the last couple of months:

This picture of Tori and her cousin Noah cracks me up!The kids really love having cousins live nearby. They love playing together!

One Month Old

Levi is one month old. I can't believe how fast the last month has gone. Levi is such a great addition to our family, we already love him so much! He has been a relatively easy baby so far (though there are days, like today, that it doesn't feel that way), and he is getting cuter by the day!

Better Late Than Never, Right?

I just wanted to give a shout out to my crazy girl Ella, who turned 2 at the beginning of the month. One of the things I love about being a Mom is seeing all the similarities and differences between my children. Ella is definitely her own person and she is both a joy and a handful all at the same time. Here is a list of things you should know about my Ella:

1. She has a great sense of humor, she loves to laugh and to make others laugh.

2.She is crazy. If you know Ella you know what I mean.

3. She is a girly tomboy. She is fearless and loves to get dirty, but she also enjoys dolls, clothes, and shoes.

4. Sassy should be her middle name.

5. She loves to dance. Apparently in Nursery when the other kids are singing Ella is up and dancing.

6. She is a great sister. She loves and looks up to her older siblings, and she is so sweet with her new baby brother.

7. She is bald and beautiful! OK she isn't bald but she is still lacking greatly in the hair department, and the hair that she does have is SO blond that is hard to see. I have noticed that her hair has been growing a bit faster lately so maybe by the time she is 3 she will have enough to really do something with :).

I feel that Ella's birthday was kinda overlooked this year because I had just had Levi, so I wanted to make sure to acknowledge her on the blog. I love you Ella!

Levi Ray is here!!

Levi was born Wednesday June 2nd, 2010 at 9:13 AM. He weighed 6 lbs 10 oz, and was 19 inches long. So far he like to eat and be held . Things went well with the C-section. I am felling alright, thanks to some good pain meds, and I am of course pretty tired. We are so happy to have our baby boy home with us and we are so glad he could join our family!
