Change is happening!

I have been in nursery for the past year and even though it has had it's challenges, I've enjoyed hanging out with the kiddos! Last Sunday was my last day with them though. I got called to be the 2nd counselor in Young Women. I'm excited but scared/nervous all at the same time. Just trying to figure things out right now and get my bearings. :)
Here's a couple of pics of my cuties last week at church!
Aiden with his new bow tie! 
      My Kenna bear and her brother!
 Jordyn kept turning her head away from me! She didn't want her picture taken!
 But I finally got her anyway...:)
Wish me luck in my new calling!! I hope I do well!

Geez.....what is my problem???

My hubby informed me tonight that I haven't blogged since May 28th. Geez!! Why can't I keep this thing updated?? Anyway....I figured I would just post something and I decided to put a picture of my hubby! Here he is sewing a hole in our couch cushion! He is great at many things! He just started his last class for his Masters!! He is so excited to be done. I'm so proud of him!!

Aiden's funny talk!

My little man has been a huge talker lately but you probably have to be around him all the time to understand some of what he says! I just love how babies say words! It makes you start saying it that way all the time as well:)

Some of his funny words are:
Henna- Kenna
Warden- Jordyn
Achoo- Hold you
Hum on- Come on
Sank you- Thank you
Hama- Grandma
Side- Outside
Dwink- Drink
All Good- Feel good
Taco- Uncle Joe
Chokit- Chocolate
Harro- Hello

I know there are more but of course can't think of them all right now:0) But he is so adorable!!

Feeling uber emotional!!

I'm having a super emotional morning. I keep tearing up. I could blame it on my monthly visitor coming but that usually isn't a big deal. I was looking at facebook and one of my friends just announced that she is expecting and having a Thanksgiving baby! That's great news and I'm very happy for her but it hit me kinda hard because I'm supposed to be having a Thanksgiving baby!! I got pregnant in February and miscarried last month. I started spotting on April 10th and thankfully I had my first OB appointment scheduled for the very next day. They found a sac but couldn't even see a baby and told me that I am miscarrying. I've always had a hard time getting pregnant but never had any problem once I got pregnant. I had no idea what to expect and I got worried when they prescribed me THREE bottles of 800mg motrin. I was also worried because we were leaving the very next morning to go to my Aunt's funeral in Northern Utah. I was literally miscarrying at my Aunt's funeral! I can't say that was a great day. I was truly very blessed because it was just like a very bad period. I really am ok because I feel that it's going to happen. It's just disappointing because it took almost a year to get pregnant. And it just stinks because I had a due date and had started planning and then all of a sudden, it's not there. And it hits me everytime I hear of a new pregnancy and it seems like everyone I know is getting pregnant!! But it's ok. I am comforted. My time will come. I just don't want it to take too long because I am getting OLD!!! I thought we were done with my 3rd but he came and I still didn't feel done. Travis and I went to the temple and prayed about it and we know we are supposed to have a 4th. Even though it scares the daylights out of me to be responsible for that many kids and financially pay for that many kids, we know that there is a little spirit up there wanting to come to our family! And really who could blame him/her? :) I just don't want to be too old of a Mama! And after going through this, I really don't know why it's normal for people to not tell of their pregnancies just in case of a miscarriage. Why? That just means you go through this while your friends have no idea that you are going through something!! It's hard to say and very hard to just bring up in conversation. It's not like you can say, "Hey....guess what!!" So I needed to put my thoughts and feelings down while I'm going through it and later when I'm expecting our 4th, I can look back and it will all just be a memory. I know everything will be alright....just later than we first thought.

Jordyn graduates preschool!!!

I am so far behind on blogging. It just feels like such a daunting task! I am just going to start with the most recent and work on the older stuff hopefully!!
And what is more recent than what happened TODAY!!
My little BIG girl graduated preschool today!! A few moms from church and I have been doing our own preschool where we rotate and everyone takes a turn and teaches. I did it for one year with Makenna and two whole years for Jordyn so I'm ready to be done for a while:)
This is my beautiful girlie with her certificate and hat!!
I hosted this graduation party and I read them two books about going to Kindergarten and the chica chica boom boom book. I thought it fit since we learned to write all the letters. We then did a craft making the tree and then put sticker letters all over it! I think it turned out great!
We also enjoyed a potluck lunch and played. Cynthia gave them all workbooks as gifts and Jordyn was working on it right after everyone left!! I can't believe I'm going to have another kid on school next year!! Love you Jordyn!!

Happy Birthday sweet baby boy!!!

My sweet baby boy turned TWO yesterday!!! I can't believe he is so big!! We did a Mickey Mouse party for him!!
Oh "TWO"dles, Aiden is TWO!! ;)

We just made a regular rainbow chip cake and made Mickey Mouse shapes on it:)

Little man was a pro at blowing his candles out!!

He kept swatting the smoke away:)

Opening presents!! The chair he is sitting on is one of them! He got a lot of "Boy" gifts!! He loves all his new trucks, motorcycles, etc! (So does Jordyn;)

Loves his new set of golf clubs:)
Aiden is such a joy to have in our familiy!! He makes us smile and laugh all the time! He has this look he looks at you from the top of his eyes and tilts his head down! It's hilarious!! Aiden has this scream like no other that Mommy would love for him to lose! He knows tons of words and says things in his own ways as well!! He says "MeMe" for excuse me, "Henna" for Kenna, "Heaby" for heavy and so on! I almost don't want him to say it the right way...lol! Aiden is a wonderful sleeper!! He has been sleeping at least 3 hours at naptime and goes right to bed at night! I hope it doesn't change but I'm sure the naptime is longer right now because he is growing or something! :) We love this little man so much and he fits right into our family!! Happy Birthday baby boy!!! You are growing too fast!!
