Okay, okay!

Geez... nobody cared if I didn't post anything for months when it was just Brad and me, but now that Kaiya is here I keep getting crap for not updating the blog. I knew having a kid would get me more attention :) Actually, I am sorry it's been so long. I thought staying home would give me all this extra time for housework, projects, blogging, etc. Ya right. If I can't keep up now, what am I going to do when I go back to work in a couple weeks?

Anyhow - without further adieu, here are some more current pictures of my one month old! She has already grown so much!

Here is Kaiya attentively watching the presidential inauguration. Really. It was funny. I tried to explain to her that despite national consensus, Barack Obama is not a god. I don't think she got it.
She's developing quite the double chin and I love it!She definitely hates "tummy time" but she's tough. She can do push ups better than I can. Here she is napping with Daddy in St. George over the weekend.Here she is napping in her bouncy chair, with very prim and proper hand placement. She loves bath time but I couldn't get a decent picture (without letting go of her and that scares me)... but here's the next best thing. Once she's all bundled in her towel, it's a mad rush to her room to get her diaper back on. It only took one big poopy mess to learn my lesson. This was actually Brad's cradle thirty years ago. I gave it a little 2009 makeover. Pretty cool, huh? And last but not least, I received this cute dress in the mail yesterday from my aunt Lara in California. Thank you! (I know that the leg-warmers are too big and I don't care.) It almost makes me want to buy a matching outfit and learn how to play tennis. Kaiya and I can be an adorable doubles team. On second thought, maybe I'll just buy the skirt. And a Wii.
p.s. There you go, Shannon. Can we be friends again?

The pictures are so cute. Isn't funny how you think you will have all this time with being home and all and in reality, you are lucky sometimes to even get a shower or teeth brushed. Brooklyn is 5 months tomorrow and she still hates tummy time. She is rolling over now and she gets mad when she can't get off of her tummy.

Well ummm okay I will except your apology. And ,I am love with the baby girl.I love her like I do Isabel.There is just something extra special about your family.Thanks for letting me cuddle her yesterday and feed her. It made me realize how precious every second with mine is.I laughed at the pictures because I think her wardrobe is excessive like Ellie's!

So, so, so cute!!
I am so happy about this blogging update. And super pumped you are going to be a tennis pro. Even if it's in make-believe land. Hell, Blaine is a superb "zombie-killer", an excellent "healer", and a cimetar-weilding bad-ass.

it's about damn time!! I just about thought I had a big Christmas dream....?! She really is getting bigger and I think looking more and more like Brad :) I love it and her leg warmers are totally appropriate!

Oh my gosh she is SOOO cute! I'm so sad I haven't been able to come see you. I was going to come on Thursday while Aidan was at school (in Payson) but was starting to get a sore throat and didn't want to pass it along. Good thing because I didn't because Ethan has been running a fever today and literally sleeping ALL day, so we might be in for round 2. Anyways, whatever... sorry about my novel. I really want to hold that baby before she turns two. She sure has some cute clothes and such a beautiful face! Don't try to do anything but hold her. It's the only time you have to do that. :) Miss you!

Happy, Happy Blog Update!!! I can't believe how big she looks these days. And it was so fun looking at Isabel's baby pictures and seeing the similarities between these 2 pretty cousins! We love you guys so much!

Kaiya looks beautiful, adorable, perfect,and chubby (a good thing when an infant)! She is another gorgeous grandchild and that makes three home-runs in a row! I love her and can't wait to see all of you in March.
