5 months old!!

Hallie is 5 months old (as of yesterday)!! She is such a sweet baby, and is really getting a LOUD voice the last few weeks. When she wants our attention, she starts screaming and then smiles, the little stinker! She is a big eater too, we think she is our chunkiest baby so far :) She also rolled over for the first time today, and then got stuck, hehe. She loves to laugh and smile and her sisters make her laugh all the time. We love you Hallie girl! Oh, and she has found her thumb too, just like her sisters! I hope I can break the habit for all of them one day!

Weekend Trip!

Gavin and I were lucky to go on a little free vacation with his religion class from BYU! His professor took us on a tour of some church history sights around Utah. It was such a neat experience to learn more about our history. We got to ride on a tour bus too, which was fun, but tiring! We drove from Provo to St. George and back all in one day, so it was A LOT of driving, but worth it :)
Here we are in Filmore, Utah at the first state capital building. Gavin bought that cane from their gift shop, I just shook my head and laughed, I don't know why he wanted it, but hey :)
Looking out towards Mountain Meadows. If you know the story behind it, it is such a sad and confusing story. It was neat to see the memorial they built for it, but so sad to see all the families that died here.

The tabernacle in St. George, such an amazing building with so much history as well!
At the St. George Temple, such a beautiful day! We didn't want to come back to the weather in Provo, yuck!! Everyone down there had t-shirts and shorts on!
beautiful trees in the front of the temple, and they are in bloom!

We were lucky to go, and lucky it was free too :)

Here are some cute pictures from Abby's big day! I can't believe she is already 4 years old! We love you Abby!

Happy Birthday Abby!! 4 Years old!

We can't believe our baby is turning 4!! I still remember bringing her home from the hospital as a tiny new baby! She is such a sweet and funny girl, always making us laugh. We love you Abby girl!! Happy 4th Birthday!

Daddy loves this little girl :)


Hallie is 4 months old (as of Feb. 16)!! We can't believe it! I feel like I just had her yesterday. She is such a sweet baby and makes us laugh. She is so happy and smiley and I don't think she could be any cuter :) Love you Hallie girl!

I was featured on this website (sew mama sew), this week ( on their blog section). For anyone who loves to sew, they also sell patterns and fabric and have awesome tutorials! Check it out!

Happy Valentines Day

We had a nice Valentines Day this year! Gavin gave me a dozen red roses and gave the girlies one rose too :) It was sweet of him! He also let me sleep in a little bit (even after he had worked the early morning shift), which is the best gift. I am usually up until 2 or 3 in the morning doing Etsy orders, so sleep is hard to come by most days.

Anyway, we also took the girls with us on our "family date", which happens a lot these days :) We went to Red Robbin for dinner, which was soooo good. The girls were getting pretty wild, so we couldn't stay long, but it was fun to get out for a little while. And to finish off our romantic date, haha, we went grocery shopping afterward. I know I know, not too exciting for Valentines Day, but it needed to be done.

We hope you had a wonderful Valentines Day!!

Here are some pictures from our day:
