Exersaucer Anyone?

Whitney is having so much fun with her exersaucer. She plays for at least 15 minutes at a time in it. That precious 15 minutes is used cleaning up or doing my make-up. Lately it's been hard to get anything done, Whitney's been cranky with teething and always wants to be held(which explains why I am up so late blogging)!! Our landlord gave it to us because her grandkids have outgrown it. Ronda, our Landlord, is a really nice lady. She just loves Whitney and so we're counting on lots of gifts, maybe even reduced rent!!

Packing for Provo

Well we're finally here, overworked, sleep deprived and ready for some R&R. Also a full body massage would be nice. The move was pretty hard on everyone. It's like we moved twice because the first truck wasn't big enough! We need to have a garage sale!


Whitney and I drove the car and Brigham and Adam(Brigham's Brother) drove the big moving truck. The first night we drove all night and got to my parents' in Las Cruces NM at around 10 am. We slept while mom babysat. We ate dinner with the family and then went to bed to get up the next morning to drive the rest of the way. Whitney, Mom and I drove to Cedar City so I could drop Mom off to help out with Connie and Ben's new Baby Kate(Born 08-08-08 @ 08:08!) Then I drove to Provo area the next morning. Whitney did pretty good in the car. It's sad cause now she fusses when I strap her into her seat:( Brig and Adam drove straight to Provo and got there in about 17 hours. The moving truck only went about 30mph up the hills and mountain roads. We stayed with Jared(another one of Brig's brothers) for a few days till we found a place to live.

To the left is a picture of me on Jared's computer searching the web. We started house hunting right away. We found a cute little house in Springville(few miles south of Provo) and started to move in Thursday. We wanted to be moved in and get settled much earlier, but we had to find a house and then wait for them to finish some things. We wanted to get a house instead of an apartment or town home because we didn't want to live where a bunch of college kids were. Our neighborhood has been great so far. Great location too (i.e. Wal*Mart about 5 minutes away)!

A video tour of the whole house is coming soon. We are still getting things moved in and put away. It's still a little messy, but you can get the general idea!

Finally Blessed!

Today we finally blessed our sweet baby Whitney. She just turned 6 months so we thought it was about time. Just Kidding, We've planned to do it several different times, but it just hasn't worked out. I made her blessing dress months ago, I'm happy it still fit her. Brig said that when they were holding her for the blessing she kept slipping because the dress is made out of slippery satin. At least they DIDN'T let her slip out of thier hands and drop her!!
