Chelsea Says "Hello"

Chelsea is saying "Hello" to her friend in the mirror! (at least that's what it sounds like to her mother)

A Scraping Wood We Go

Michael and I have the wonderful opportunity to clean the Cherry Lane Apartment Office! It just so happens that the cleaners before us decided to cover the Pergo Floor with a clear Wood Finish every time they cleaned the floor. This became quite a predicament for us because, no matter how hard we tried, the floor never looked clean. So, in hopes to make the floor look good again we decided to loosen and scrape all the extra wood finish off the Pergo floor. The truth is I didn't know how ambitious of a task this was until we started.

It's starting to really look fabulous, but after almost 6 hours of work we only got half finished . . . Here's our progress so far:

How Time Flies!

Chelsea Rose is 4 months old already! We are so happy to have her in our life. She is such a happy baby - since the beginning she smiled and laughed, even in her sleep! Here are a few pics to highlight the past few months:

Baby Shower Bonanza!

I can most definitely say I've never felt more spoiled and loved in my whole life!! Thank you so much to my Mom, Mimi, Megan, and my ward for throwing me such fun and beautiful baby showers! I received some of the cutest and most incredible gifts!! Chelsea Rose is lucky to be coming into a world with so many caring people around her. I couldn't have asked for more love and support. She truly has so many wonderful and great examples to follow. I want to make a tribute to all the wonderful women in my life who have been role models to me in every aspect of my life: My Gram and Grandma Janet, My Grandma Wood and Grandma Gibbons, My Mom and Mother-in-law (thanks for showing me how to be a great Mom!), my sisters and sisters-in-laws, my many amazing Aunts, my Young Women and Church leaders, and the countless others who I have looked to for strength and learning. I am so blessed to be surrounded by so many righteous and amazing women. Thank you for showing me how to love and to be loved, how to sacrifice, how to overcome adversity, how to be so kind and caring, how to love my husband, how to be a daughter of God, and much , much more . . . Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I hope I can share with my little girl all the things I have learned from you!

BYU Football Mania!

Michael and I went to the BYU football game this last Saturday against TCU. Okay, okay. Although, it didn't go exactly like we all hoped it would Michael and I still felt like winners!! It was so much fun to spend some time together at my Alma Mater!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MICHAEL!!
