Celebration!

HAPPY (BELATED) BIRTHDAY DAD!!
Happy (late late) Birthday Kai!!

More of my Titan Baby!

Jordon and Hadleigh gave Titan a bath. Hadleigh mostly played in the water.


Hadleigh got to move up to a sippy cup! She took 2 steps on Thursday and we thought that it would be good to move her up to a big girl cup. She figured out how to drink from it today. It is just a starter cup so it has an anti-leak guard on it.


We went to see my family today while Jordon slept and we had some fun! Here are pictures of my brothers and babies! These 2 have the boys wrapped completely around their pinkies (well paw for Titan)!






Love my family! And I just want my sister to know that I hope she has fun on the cruise! I am so jealous!

New members, new achievements

Jordon and I have wanted a puppy since before we were married but with school, work, house work, and Hadleigh Baby we didn't know when would be a good time. We wanted a small to medium size dog. We often went to McKee's to look at the cute puppies and yesterday was one of those days. Well we went and came back with..... A PUPPY!! After about an hour we named him Titan. We were thinking about Zeus or something like that but we both LOVE the name TITAN.

I have 2 babies and they are so fun! They play well together although Titan does nibble on Hads hands and she doesn't really like it. I am trying to teach him not to bite her. He is doing good so far! Only 3 accidents! I think that is pretty good. He usually tries to make it outside before he goes but like a kid getting potty trained he has to go right then! Silly puppy!

Welcome to the family Titan. We love you!

Saying "HELLO"

Looking at her toy through the door.

She was trying to let Titan in!

Nap time!

Hadleigh took 2 steps last night right before Jake came over to see Titan!! We are so excited! I was trying to take a picture of her standing up by herself but every time I would pull out the camera she would sit down! That stinker! Here are some pictures of her!

I love that little girl with all my heart! I hope that she knows that!

Playing catch-up

I do NOT have an idea where to even start to catch people up on our lives! AAHHHH!

Miss Princess is starting to stand on her own and climb through every place she can. She will crawl through the chair legs, in-between the couch and the wall and around/in the hutch.

She stood by herself ALOT at a surprise party for Jackie but I didn't snap any pictures. She likes to show off for her dad and other people so she pulled out the tricks that night! What a show off we have on our hands!

Jordon and I went on some really fun dates lately. We went to the Rodeo with Kenneth and Britt. It was my first time as well as Britt's going to the DNCFR! We had a blast.

We went to a Murder Mystery Dinner which was right up my alley! Unfortunately, we didn't win. Dang it! But I did get to wear one of my new Easter shirts ( love the shirts babe)

Hadleigh Belle had been sick for about a week and a half with a stuffy/runny nose and cough. We are taking her in for 9 month on Tuesday. I hope she can get some real medicine for her cough!

We had a be-lated Easter dinner at my parents and we wore our new Easter clothes! Dinner was delicious! Thanks mom and dad!

The last 2 Saturdays we had a BBQ and that has been super fun! I am loving the warm weather we are having lately. Even Hadleigh wore a dress! Our lives have been filled with lots and lots of family filled fun. Yesterday Jordon and Jake worked on our yard and the day before they did Grandpa Bairds yard. Hadleigh didn't like the grass so much. I am so lucky to have my husband and funny daughter.

OH! I also wanted to add that I finally made some bows with my big sis Valeigha. I haven't finished them (all the way) so I will post more pictures later. I did finish one for a dress Hadleigh got for Christmas and again for Easter. I will also post pictures of another craft project I am working on.. but it's a surprise!

All in all- Another great week!
P.S. Happy Birthday Kai! My baby brother is 14!!

Been a while....

I can't believe that I haven't posted in such a long time! I have been busy.. well kinda. I will post tomorrow and catch you all up on our lives. Just thought that I would post one of my favorite songs for one of my favorite people... he knows who he is.. before I turn in. Thank you Taylor Swift.

I've never gone with the wind
Just let it flow
Let it take me where it wants to go
Till you open the door
There's so much more
I've never seen it before

I was trying to fly
But I couldn't find wings
Then you came along
And you changed everything

You lift my feet off the ground
Spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier,
Crazier, crazier

Watched from a distance as you
Made life your own
Every sky was your own kind of blue
And I wanted to know
How that would feel
And you made it so real

You showed me something that I couldn't see
Opened my eyes and you made me believe

You lift my feet off the ground
Spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier,
Crazier, crazier, oh

Baby, you showed me what living is for
I don't want to hide anymore

You lift my feet off the ground
You spin me around
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I
I'm lost in your eyes
You make me crazier,
Crazier, crazier
Crazier, crazier

Hippity Hoppity to General Conference!

Can we say this was an amazing Easter/Conference weekend? Yes I think that we can! Let's see... where to begin... Ahh.. Thursday!

Thursday was a great day! Jordon got extra time off from work for the Holiday and he also had the day off from school! What a blessing! We sat around in the morning and caught up on our last few days of events. Jordon and I then went to bed! Hadleigh wanted her nap early so the 3 of us laid down for about 2 hours. Then Hadleigh and I got up and played until 5 when Jordon joined us! He made us hamburgers! Hads wanted to join...

We ordered 2012 from the T.V. and then because I was getting so emotional we got in the hot tub. I am NOT used to crying every time I watch something that could be slightly touching!! We all went to bed early.

Friday we "slept in" until 8:30! Yay! Then hung out and got dressed so Jordon could go to school for an hour. When he got back the girls went to see Pops and Lolli Hanohano. Don't tell my mom that I called her that! She hates it! They were lucky enough to get tickets to go see Conference Live and I wanted Hadleigh to spend a little time with them. Friday night was an easy night with just the hot tub. Jordon had to work on homework so it wasn't very eventful!

Saturday we got up and cleaned the whole house! I mean vacuum, bathroom, sweep/mop, dust both upstairs and downstairs! I was irritated when I got up so I did a little more cleaning than was necessary. (I clean almost everyday rotating what is cleaned. I know that is a little obsessive but I don't want my princess getting sick or dirty!) I then did laundry as well! We got it all done by 11! THREE HOURS FLAT the house was clean. Jordon helped out so much! I really appreciate all that he does when he has extra time off. After we got done cleaning we went shopping. When I say shopping I mean Wal Mart. It was so crazy busy and we had to make TWO trips!

The best thing about Saturday was seeing Sammy! That kid lights up my life! He is so funny and so not like his brothers... he is quiet and reserved and just as cute as can be. I am just so grateful that I got to see the whole family. I got them some Easter presents and the hit of the day was silly string! They used up all three cans in about 10 minutes. Jordon does so great with the P's! He reminds me alot of David. Maybe it's because they both went to Snake River but I think it's their personalities.

I know that we forgot about Conference but we did tape it! We are going to watch it this week. We could use a mid-week up-lifting. Jordon did miss out on the Priesthood session though which was my biggest regret of the weekend. We came home and he worked on homework and then went to bed.

Sunday was a WONDERFUL day! Jordon made me raspberry muffins (well mostly made).

Guess who visited our house?! The Easter Bunny came! Here is what he brought us!
We got to watch the full first session in peace! Hadleigh took her nap at 10 and then we had to wake her at 12! Hallie came and watched with us since everyone else was gone and then went to see Jared. Those two... silly kids! My favorite talk of the morning was.. all of them! They all were great! I loved the messages of love, the Atonement, motherhood, all the speakers had very similar talks. Uchtdorf's did hit the spot and so did Sister Lant's. Ahh.. all of them were great!
We went to Blackfoot to watch the second session and Hadleigh did pretty good. She knew the Prophets were talking and I think that she could feel the spirit even stronger than the rest of us! We got to eat delicious food, talk and dye eggs! It was so fun to give the Mauger kiddo's their presents.

All in all the Easter spirit was resounding. I feel a whole new air about our house and in myself.

My testimony has been strengthened.

My love and appreciation for the Lord had increased.

He lives.
