Mother's Day

How blessed I feel to be a Mom, to have the Mom I have and to have the GrandMOTHER I have. Yesterday was such a wonderful Mother's Day. It first started with Scott and Scottee bringing me up pancakes in bed. I loved it and he let me sleep in until 8:30. But that did mean I only had 30 minutes to get me and two other children ready for church, but oh well! Then we went to church and Scottee decided she was going up to sing with the primary even though she is only in nursery. But I can guarantee that girl knew the songs way more than any child out there. She was adorable! Then we went over ot my Moms Relief Society and Scottee sang "I Often go Walking" all by herself standing on the table for her entire Relief Society. She brought tears to all of the ladies faces and especially mine. She did not miss a beat. She was so excited that during Sunday School she leaned over to my Mom and said, "Tell him to stop talking so I can go sing"! After being priviledged enough to show her off then the most kind, well-spoken, generous, classy, best-dressed, FUN, loving GrandMOTHER spoke. She always brings tears to everyone and I never feel the Spirit as strong as when she and my Mother speak. Those two women are so unbelievaley close to their Heavenly Father that the Spirit radiates off of them. I love them so much and hope one day I can be half the WOMEN they are. I know they will one day be Queens!! I love you two and thank you for all you have done for me and the Legacy and example you have left me.
Happy Mother's Day to all of the wonderul Mothers and Women out there.

Crawling!!!

Hadlee started rocking and doing all sorts of so called crawling but not the "real" crawl until Monday! She looks adorable doing it. She is growing up so fast and it makes me so sad except that she can't wait to be old enough to play with her sister. She loves to watch her and do everything she is doing. I love to watch them together, I hope they will always be best friends.
Scottee has mostly just been swimming and playinh at parks everyday. Every morning she asks me if we are going to the pool or water park today. She now expects it!! Oh well I enjoy myself as well.
I will post later with pics.

Easter Pics!!!

My good friend Sarah Goodsell took these pics and she is unbelieveable but it also helps that I have the cutest most adorable children in the world and the hottest husband. But I am not biased at all! I love them Sarah you are AWESOME!!

Thank You Scott for the wonderful Birthday!

Every year something always comes up that for some reason Scott can't do anything "special" for my birthday. Well this year he took "baby steps" as he called it and threw me a huge surprise party! Babe if that was baby steps I cant wait for the next few years! It was fabulous!! He did it all by himself! There was a full blown dinner he made, he had decorated, and had invited about 40 people! It was everything I could have ever wanted! I got to spend my special day with the people I love! Thank you everyone for the comments, the calls, the presents, and for always supporting me and my family!! I have had the most wonderful 25 years of life and hope the next 25 years are as wonderful!
I love you Scott!!

Happy Belated Birthday My Baby!!

Well I started this and never finished it. Happy Happy Birthday Scottee. I cant belive she was three on March 2. She has been the most enjoyable, EASY, lovable, energetic, sweet, FUNNY, first child to raise. She helps me out so much. She is truly the first child in every sense of the way: bossy, little mother, helpful, and super responsible. She can clean and take care of Hadlee as good as I can. Like my friends all say she can hold a full on conversation with an adult and as she walks into her preschool class she is always the leader. She is adorable and fun!! I tell her on a daily basis to stop growing and I truly mean it. These past three years have been the best three years of my life and have gone by the fastest!!!! Here are a few things I asked her:
Favorite nickname: Boo Boo and Scottee Girl

What makes me happy: boys (OH NO!!!)

Here are a few things about her:
3 things I LOVE about Scottee

1. I love that she has no fear and will sing in front of hundreds of people.

2. She taught me that miracles can happen and to always have faith in the Lord.
3. She taught me that little kids truly are closer to the Lord.
I love her and she is my little woman. Scottee you are my angel baby!!!

First Time Ever

With all this blogging going on around here...I couldn't resist but to post a blog. Yes....this is Scott. I looked at the history today on our web browser and there are 50 million different blogs that Shea has read and looked at so I wanted to get on here and see what all the fun is. After about 15 minutes, I still do not see the point. Can some of you blog stockers (I guess that is actual 'blog lingo') out there please explain this horrible waste of time to me??? :) Shea I love you and Happy Early Birthday. Happy Blog Stocking tonight!

Where has the time gone...

I can not believe my little angel is already 6 months old. Hadlee is the most angelic, happy, loveable, spit-upper, easy-going child. It is such a bitter sweet moment when your kids grow. You want them to learn and experience but at the same time you want them to remain small and so Christ-like. She is truly the apple of my eye, my love, and my baby. I hope I can have the next six months a little slower, a little less busy, and have a little more Hadlee/Mommy time. I will just have to cherish every moment she is with me in my life! I love you more than words Hads.
