The Happy Fam!

The Happy Fam!

Monday, February 22, 2010

So... it's been a while! I finally decided it was time to come out of my blog hybernation. This doesn't mean that I'll stop looking like a mother bear who didn't hybernate quite long enough, but it does mean I'll start updating my blog again! A few minor changes have occurred in our lives since my last post:
1. I got even bigger.



2. Beautiful Baby Jonathan Nephi was born on September 22nd (only 5 days after my due date...) weighing in at 7 lbs. 12 oz. and 20 inches long! I'll skip the gory details and just stick with the facts: Labor lasted 21 hours, and I'm still in love with the wonderfully magical epidural doctor. Then came the big arrival, and I really don't think I've ever been so in heaven! I am so head-over-heels for this little man!





3. My big little brother Kyle came home from his mission in Ft. Lauderdale (Spanish-speaking) on Dec. 17th!
4. We had an awesome Christmas!


5. We decided to start building a house here in Twin Falls! It's actually really close to being done, and we'll be moving in a few weeks! We're in the middle of tiling it right now. We'll post newer pictures soon!

5. Paul and I are both back in school (I just have one online class, but wow that's enough!). I'm also teaching piano and making jewelry on the side of my 24 hour a day job (the Mommy one). Paul's also working 50 hours a week, still delivering linen for Alsco. Things are just a tad hectic at our house, but we're loving it!

Well, I think that's it! Life is great and we're super excited to see it moving forward! I know that we have a loving Father in Heaven, who has just opened up the windows of heaven and started pouring out so many blessings. We are so grateful for all we have and we hope life is great for everyone else too!

P.S. - If you're wondering who took all the super-awesome pictures, it's my sister-in-law Marie Speirs. She's amazing!

  2. I know! I actually check out your blog all the time to see what you're making. :) I'm having SO much fun making things! I've sold some on Ebay, but lately I've just been making stuff for gifts.
