What a ride!!!

Life has been so much fun with 2 kids. I love the feeling that a brand new baby brings into the home. Cason and I both feel so blessed to have our 2 angels and especially for our family and friends. We really are so blessed!!! In this month's visiting teaching message (not trying to be all preachy)...but it talks about what a treasure it is to be a mom and wife. I can honestly say it is a TREASURE!!!

With church being at 11:00 now (right during her nap) she comes home and crashes. Yesterday, I put her in her room for her nap and about an hour later she came down stairs still very tired. Cason and I both thought she went back up stairs to her bed...I guess she never made it!!!



Ella found a candy cane from Christmas! She cracked me up. She was blue all over!!! A shower was definitely needed!!! You can tell she did mind that one bit!!!


(at 3 weeks)
I feel like Bentley is such a little man! He has already grown so much!!!


Ella is such a good big sis. She found one of her old pictures and was just talking to Bentley and kept saying "Ella...baby"

Yay! I'm so glad to see that you posted! How is little Bentley doing? Are you getting much sleep? We need to get together so we can see each other's babies! Our ward has also switched times to be during Jaylee's nap. Sunday's have definately been harder now. I hope you're all doing well!

I love the picture of Ella in the shower!!!! Little kids kill me! He's such a cutie!! Still in love with the name. We were thinking of calling maddy that, but I still thought it was a little weird being my maiden name and I love it as a boy name!

Cute pics. Glad you're back to blogging! Chloe crashes right after church too. That last 30 min of church is hard for all of the kids in the nursery.

The pic of Ella crashing on the stairs is priceless! Your kids are adorable. Seeing Bentley makes me want to have another sweet little one in my house!

Kaydee said...

Such cute kids. How are you feeling? Are you getting any sleep? I am delivering at Summerlin, maybe after we both recover we should get together.

Jay and Mel said...

I love that you said that Bently is such a little man. That is exactly how I feel about my two boys. Especially when you get them all dressed up. I would love to get together with you when you come to cedar. We could go to the green show or lunch or something. My number is 590-4425. Also, I am so glad that Adrianne is in Ohio. Jay actually stayed with them during his interview. They fed and drove him around. I am very grateful for them and glad to have a friend out there. By the way did I mention how great you look after two kids!!

Bently is adorable! I love the little outfits that you dress him in too, he totally looks like a "little man." Ella looks like she has taken on her role as older sis. How cute is she! I miss you guys and hope all is going well.

Your family is SO cute, and your baby is growing so fast. I do dare say he's bigger than Paige and she's almost 6 months!
