Lately...

Holy cow! I can't believe my baby girl is 4 months old today, it is going by so fast, but I LOVE watching her grow. This week she has found her voice, which I love the majority of the time :). She is starting to reach and grab at things, which led her to the discovery of her Toes! She is so stinkin cute laying on her blanket grabbing her toes and jibber jabbering away!!! The bald spot on the back of her head is finally noticeable.. :( oh well, she still has plenty more hair on the top of her head I guess! She is such a blessing in our life, and is truly the light of my life!!!
We put up CHristmas lights this week, purple lights in our room and Ry's room, and pretty white ones downstairs. We also put up our Tree... yes a stupid fake one. :( We are hoping to go and get a real one, but we will see! Will and I bought a container full of ornaments last year full of bright pink, Teal, Lime Green, Red, and Purple Ornaments--and loved it last year, this year it is officially "The Mardi Gras Tree", and we don't love it!!! :) Too bad ornaments are so darn expensive...or I would get new ones every year!!! So Will tells me maybe next year...
And guess what I did today!!! I made Pumpkin Pies!!! Real homemade ones!!! This last Thanksgiving, I missed out on the pumpkin pie before everyone else finished it off, so I was bound and determined to have myself some good ol' Pumpkin pie before christmas! I'll be honest it was more work than I had planned, but they turned out so yummy!!!
While we were in Vernal for Thanksgiving, I got to take some beautiful Maternity pics for one of my greatest friends that I have known since I can remember, Jessi Labrum. She just has the cutest little Belly, and her and her Husband Colt are so photogenic, it was no task at all to make the pics look great!!! I am so happy with the way they turned out, and I also dabbled into the Adobe Illustrator Program and made her a super cute Christmas Card to send out with her new pics on it!!! So that is my creative endeavor for the week~
As for everything else, Life is crazy as usual, and time flies by like I can't believe. I am so glad to be home in Logan, settling into our new condo, and our old married student ward that we love so much! The holidays are so much fun, but I must admit I am more excited for next Christmas when Ryann can rip open some presents on CHristmas Morning!!! Will and I decided that we are just going to get her a cute present or two, and then just wrap loads of Boxes that she can just tear into and play in!!! I mean seriously, half the fun of Christmas is ripping all of the wrapping to shreds!!! (unless its super cute, then I go all pack-Rat and try not to rip it so I can use it again, don't tell!!!)
Anyways, I am soooo grateful for my wonderful family, and all of the beautiful snow in BEAUTIFUL Logan, for my Amazing Husband, and beautiful little Ryann Bean!!!
P.s.-Elf is Most Definitely My FaVORITE Christmas Movie EVER!!!
