Essure!!!

Okay so Presleigh is obsessed with the Essure commercial. It's the strangest thing the way Presleigh runs to the TV every time this commercial comes on. I'm not sure if it's because there are little boys in it or because they are playing soccer or why she likes it so much but we will be in the other room and she'll hear the commercial and then stand right in front of the TV until it's over. At first I thought it was cute but now i'm starting to get a little freaked out, it's a birth control commercial!! I mean seriously, I just wish it was a fisher price commercial or something.

Digital Scrapbooking!!!!

Here are some of the scrapbook pages that i've done. I'm trying to get Presleigh's first year done so that i can get them printed in a book.




















A couple weekends ago I made a day trip to SLC and took my lil sister's engagement pictures. I've never taken pictures for someone else and it was sort of stressful. These are a couple of the ones I liked.






Here is the Amy Butler bag that my mom and I made. I absolutely love it, and I get so many compliments when I go out. I think my mom is starting to sell them on etsy so I will let you know when that's up and going if anyone is interested.


It was super nice out the other day, so we went for a little walk and I snapped a few pics!!





I'm not a big fan of dressing presleigh when we're around the house so a lot of times i just let her roam around in her diaper. Well now she likes to take her diaper off so I've been putting just tights on her so she can't get to her diaper. (I guess i could probably just put clothes on her, but this is so much cuter!!)



It's Official...

Well at least I hope it is. Presleigh has successfully gone to bed by 8:30 for the past 3 nights, and I think she is finally on an early schedule. I was stressing so much about trying to get her on an earlier schedule so that Wayne and I would have some time at night to ourselves, and also because I want her all adjusted before the new baby gets here. It's amazing how well she goes to bed now that she is going so much earlier. I think she was probably overly tired. Poor little thing!! So now the next big thing is getting her off the bottle. I have started by not giving her a bottle for her nap, which has been a struggle. The big step is going to be her night time bottle. It's crazy how attached she is to that thing. If any of you have any ideas on how to get her off the bottle please let me know.

Baby Boy!!!











We've know since the beginning of the month but i thought that we should let everyone know that we will be having a baby boy join our little fam in July. I don't know why but having a boy makes me so nervous. I guess I feel like it's my first child again just because of the gender. It's crazy. So now we just need to agree on a name. It's funny cuz with Presleigh it was so easy, i had her name picked out since 6th grade and wayne loved it. She was Presleigh even before we knew she was a girl (well i pretty much always knew she was a girl). With this little guy it's been a little more difficult because Wayne just happens to be a 2nd. So we're trying to decide if we should carry on the family name. Anyway... We are 23 weeks along now and it's going so fast.








We really haven't been up to very much lately. Wayne is still in the middle of tax season so we don't get to see much of him these days. We did enjoy a weekend visit to Wayne's sister's house in St. George a couple weeks ago. Our nephew just got home from a mission, and we were lucky to be able to attend his homecoming. I love being able to get together with Wayne's family. We always feel so strengthened by their great example. I love it, I married into a great family!!








Presleigh has been really into her stuffed animals lately. She can't go into her crib or out of it without her teddy. She only says a few words but teddy is definitely one of them and it is so stinkin cute! She also loves to give high fives and we just started doing "down low, you're to slow" it's so funny how excited she gets when she actually hits one of our hands. I'll try and post a video one of these days. She could play that game for hours. She also loves to twirl. She doesn't really do it on her own though, she likes to hold on to my finger and spin. She's turning into quite the jabber-mouth. She's always talking, and i wish i could understand what she's saying. If she's anything like I was, I won't be able to understand her until she's like 5. We are having so much fun with her though, she's so adorable.
