Marley's Baby Blessing




It is always so touching to my very soul when we get to bless our new babies. Marley looked so cute in her blessing dress. Brandon gave her a very sweet blessing. My heart was full of love and appreciation. I am so grateful that we have family that came and shared this moment with us.

Halloween







The kids loved craving pumpkins this year. Ellie wanted a happy face and Ethan wanted a scary face. Ethan was Superman and he loved being superman. For about two weeks he has been wearing his costume around the house pretending he could fly. Ellie was a ballerina and loved twirling around. They both looked really cute and had a great time. We spent Halloween at our ward Trunk-or-Treat. They both had a blast.

Sibling Love




Ellie and Ethan both truly love their new sister Marley. They are such big helps and love to talk to her. Ellie is the true big sister and wants to mother Marley all the time. I feel sometimes like I have a new shadow because she will follow me everywhere when I am holding Marley. I am truly grateful that they enjoy the new baby so much.

Ethan's Birthday


Sandy gave Ethan this Nerf Gun and he loves it. Our dog Kramer is terrified every time Ethan has it out. I have had to threaten to take it back to the store if he shots the dog anymore. That has worked for the most part but I think he often waits until I am not around and then shots the dog.






Okay so I am a little behind on my blog updates. Ethan turned three last month and he had been counting down the months to his birthday for some time. He was luck and really had two parties. We were up at my parents on his actual birthday so we did cake with them. Then we had his other birthday at the park with the rest of our families a few days later. He was so excited to get his Batman Toy. For months he has been asking for a train cake so I did my best and it turned out pretty good if I do say so myself. What a handsome three year old. He is truly a light in my life. I love his smiles and he makes the best faces. What a character!
