bliggity blogs

Kelly and I on our anniversary, we went to the Club House and had a fancy shmancy dinner for two!
This is our super hip super cool baby madeline sportin some shades


Okay, so if we want her to take a nap in her or our bed with out us, we have to pretend like we are there, by surrounding her with pillow and putting blankets tightly on her.. silly baby

This is kelly when he first realized that he was really rediculously good looking.

Here in california we start our kids on the bottle early in life.. (root beer bottle of course)
My daughter has lungs of steel, she can cry and cry and cry..

So Kelly and I have been looking for places to live that are affordable, so I dont have to go back to work full time, and I just put a listing on nannies4hire.com so if any one needs a nanny or knows someone who needs a nanny LET ME KNOW!!! I am very qualified.. ;) Anywho.. Life is a little hectic in these times of holidays, trying to budget and figure out what to buy and make for people, but I looooove christmas anyways. I cant wait to go with my family to look at christmas lights around the city and listen to christmas music while drinking hot chocolate... ahhh i love it! christmas is my favorite time of the year!!! well I will post maddie's christmas pics and our family photo's when we get them back! so until the merry christmas to all and to all a good night!

the luncheon after the blessing is going to be at Kelly's parents after the block, call for directions and more info!

Baby Blessing!!!

Hey everyone!!! I just wanted to let everyone know that the beautiful Maddy Paige is being blessed on Sunday, November 4th at 11:30 a.m. at the McFadden building!!! At 2:30 there will be a light lunch at my parents house, any questions? Give us a call!
As for baby Madeline she is doing really well, she has been sleeping a lot lately, but not so much at night, at least now she is happier when she is awake, as opposed to screaming or being really fussy. She talks a lot and smiles now, her personality is really coming out and I have a feeling she is going to be a little bit of a drama queen, but we knew that from the first good ultra sound reading! I don't have pictures to post today but I will get the one's that I took with Kellie Ann's camara of her in her little bear/toto (Wizard of Oz) costume. She is as cute as a button!

I have so much fun dressing up my little princess! She makes my world go round!

" I really need to do my nails"

this is just a little taste of the past! This is Amy's wedding and Becca and I are all hot and pregnant, you can tell by the way I'm standing that I am slightly uncomfortable!!! hehe

She's Here!!!

Finally now I have a reason to blog! Thanks to little Madeline Paige! She is growing so much already! She is just over a month old and weighs almost 10lbs, and thats pretty impressive considering she weighed only 6 1/2lbs when she was born, but its no surprise when she eats anywhere from every hour to every three!

This picture was taken on her first visit to Disneyland at only 3 1/2 weeks old, so she is already gaining her love for Mickey. I am trying to keep up on taking pictures of the little one which is saying something because Kelly and I are the world's most forgetful people when it comes to bringing our cameras places, but thanks to Grandma Sherri's camera she is now quite photogenic. Well that's all for now!

sorry mom

sorry that i haven't blogged in a while, i haven't felt like it lately, but i am feeling better now! :) so... i got a job at university of phoenix, in a different department then i originally had hoped for, but i'm there none the less, i start on monday. today my car decided to be stupid... again, the epc light came on (electric power control) and i can't get my car in reverse or drive, there is something wrong with the brake trigger. the brakes work fine its just some electrical problem, but luckily we have a warranty. Regardless of the broken car, kelly and i are going to hopefully fill out the paper work on buying our house, if it is still there! woohoo! hooray for us! So if any of you out there have some old (decent;)) furniture or know someone who does, get a hold of it for me and then we can store it somewhere until we move in... so you have like five or six months to look! alright guys i love you! oh and kelly got me a fishing pole and i caught like 5 fish! woohoo.. haha i'm silly!

WEEK 4!!

hey guys!! Its the start of week four here.. And yep, still no pictures. We have been here for three whole weeks now, it seems like longer. This week was pretty uneventful, which isn't a bad thing. I had a second interview at U of P, and will find out by the end of the week if I have the job. We went down to Maricopa City on Wednesday and barged in on the Bremers, and BJ and Ema Griffin, and while we were there we went house hunting and we found some houses that we love that we could afford, so we are pretty stoked, we went later this week to look at some other places, but just ended up back in Maricopa, we will try to look at other places more north of here just so that we have looked everywhere. We are hoping to buy (depending on this job) within the next couple of months, so that we can have everyone visit us and have a place to stay!! We love you guys and I promise that I will try to get some pictures up, love you guys!!!! Bye!!

Do you miss us yet!?

We are starting off our third week here in AZ and I am hoping that it goes better than last week! but heavenly father is continuing to bless us thanks to your many prayers! We need some more prayer help this week, I need to get this job or else we will really be in a bad way, next week i only have thirteen hours!!! that means i may only get $100 for the week!!!!!! AHH the girl with many jobs doesn't have any more jobs to fall back onto. I dont know if that was too much information, but i just wanted to give everyone a good picture of the dillema at hand here :);). Other than the money we really are enjoying ourselves here. I love my neighbors and Kelly and I are learning a lot more about ourselves and each other. Patty I really hope I get the job so that I can call and say hi with Regina!! We love and miss you all!! I dont have any pictures yet guys... so sorry!!!

HERE I AM!!!

So we have finally got our internet working in our new apartment, so I can start updating my blog... finally. So we have been our apartment for a week now, and it has been fun but it hasn't been easy. Everything has gone wrong before it was made right. Electricity(we have it but they owe me $230 for my small deposit), cable (they had to drill through our walls to get it working), phone(this is the only thing that went relatively well but..), internet (the same company as the phone took four days of trials and tribulations to set up). But other then that everything else has gone wonderfully, oh except for the fact that they double booked our parking space so we were fighting with someone who was in the right, our neighbor puked on the floor in the community walkway, and word just in is that kelly's car's gas tank just cracked or something, so we may be down to just one car... trials make us stronger, and i know you are all thinking "they shouldn't have moved" but it would have happened sooner or later... we do really love it here and our ward is soo awesome. but we do appreciate anyone who wants to get in contact with us.. i have been pretty frazzled and haven't been able to make phone calls to all that i want too, so you can call me!!! We both love and miss all of you!!!! I'll get some pictures as soon as we can afford it ;)

this is me and my loving husband kelly when we were married almost 8 months ago. i feel wierd doing this blog, maybe when we move to arizona it will feel a little better, because it will probably be the best way to keep in touch with everyone so they can see whats going on and we can see whats going on with them. we were going to move on the 15th of September, but as my mo.-in-law reminded me, im going to the Toby Keith concert on the 16th so no can do on the 15th. well thats all for today!

ok i did it

i told scott that i never would start a blog spot, but i did. i actually did it on accident you see, i was really just trying to post a comment on mom's page and then i guess i registered from there. so here it is, my very own blog spot. i am at work right now, so no pictures. i'll probably have to go to mom's for that anyway. hooray for me!!!
