To my Husband and the Father of my Baby

Today was Robby's first Father's Day. As a present John and I gave him a baseball with John's itty-bitty hand print on it. Then I made Robby a dinner of his request: Funeral Potatoes, sauteed veggies, and garlic bread with Death by Chocolate Milkshakes for dessert.

I'm so lucky to be married to Robby. He's the best husband and the best father to John that I could ever imagine.

John was 4 days old here

I love him with all my soul.

John's Baby Blessing

On June 3rd, we blessed our sweet little boy in my in-laws' ward in Blackfoot. It was a wonderful weekend spent with family and friends. It was beautiful to see my baby boy surrounded by amazing and worthy priesthood holders and my husband blessed him with a healthy boy and clear mind, faith, hope and charity and a desire to serve a mission and in the temple. I wish I could remember more of the blessing, but really it was more the feeling that accompanied the blessing than the words that touched my heart. I have been blessed to be the mother of one of Heavenly Father's choice children and I only hope I can be good enough to be his mom and raise him in righteousness.

I love my boys

He was so good during church

My mom let us use the outfit my younger brother, John, was blessed in. It was fun to see generation 2 of baby Johns be blessed in the same outfit. John 2.0 What do you think?

First Date

I recently found this picture

May 31, 2008

It's from mine and Robby's very first date over four years ago. I didn't know he'd even kept this picture. He took me on a picnic then to a Beatles tribute concert. Little did I know that 3 years later I would end up marrying this amazing man. I'm so glad I get to be married to my best friend for time and all eternity and he gets more handsome every day!

I just love him. The end!

Who Does He Look Like?

Who do you think our little guy looks like?

Hopefully a Sign of Good Things to Come

Last night was wonderful! Which makes this morning glorious!

I adore this picture of John hanging over Robby's shoulder

I fed John at 7:30 last night and cuddled him til he fell asleep at 8pm. I went to bed at 10 and he didn't wake up to eat until 1am! Robby was still awake so they hung out until John fell asleep again. 

Then Robby came to bed around 2 and John didn't wake up again to eat until 5 am. He fell asleep like angel after his 5 am feeding and 8 am feeding. 

And since I got such a good night's sleep, I got up at 8, had breakfast, fed John and put him down in his crib,  cleaned the kitchen (even scrubbing the floors), exercised, and did my hair and makeup and I feel wonderful!

I sure hope this trend continues!
