Our House!! Yay :) We love it! The corner landscaping out front. The tree looks dead.. but it's trying to come back! Landscaping in the backyard! View from our deck! More of the backyard! The Kitchen and dining area. These are the only rooms completely done. Some living room Decor! View of the Kitchen from Living Room. This is also Landscaping in the back. Somehow it got mixed in with the inside photos. ?? View of the Living room from the Kitchen. Entry hall way.. The living room isn't finished completely. I want to put a big family photo above the fireplace.. and decorate the mantle as well. With Jonathon's work schedule we haven't been able to take new family pic's... so for now it is really bare. Living room couch! My little shelf! The picture is blurry... Anyways... We are still working on the bedrooms to get them the way I want. My room is pretty much done.. except for curtains and a few finishing touches. It has been a lot of fun to decorate! When Jonathon and I moved to Monticello we sold all of our furniture. So it's been fun to get all new stuff! We had to start from scratch.. which kind of stinks.. but I LOVE everything we gotten for the house so far :)
* "I watch carchons" That is her word for Cartoons!

"I can't dance, I have a bandaid on."

* "I want to sing my ABCDEFG's" instead of just ABC's

*"What happened to me?"
*"I love you too much!"
While she was going potty... She said "I pushed the poop out!"
*Don't worry about me!
*Well what does that mean Mom?"
* I watch my ABC's mom, I watch my ABC's!
*Alexis - "Mom are you ok" Me - "I have a really bad headache." Alexis - "Don't die mom, okay."
*I watch my movie mom.. Okay
*No way mom, now way..
*Jonathon says "What book do you want to read?" Alexis says "Let me think about it dad."
*"Daddy you a boy, shut door." as Jonathon was going to the bathroom.

*That's cool mom!
"Before I was a Mom, I never tripped over toys, or forgot words to a lullaby. I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous. I never thought about immunizations. Before I was a Mom, I had never been puked on. Pooped on. Chewed on. Peed on. I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts. I slept all night. Before I was a Mom I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests or give shots. I never looked into teary eyes and cried. I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin. I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep. Before I was a Mom I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put them down. I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt. I never knew that something so small could affect my life SO much. I never knew that I could love someone so much. I never knew I would love being a Mom. Before I was a Mom I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body. I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby. I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child. I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy. Before I was a Mom I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay. I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment, or the satisfaction of being a Mom. I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom."
Jonathon and I met in the Summer of 05'. We were both living and working in Orem, Utah at the time.. From the day we met we pretty much spent every bit of free time together, and were married on Nov. 26, 2005! We were married in The Dalles, OR. Jonathon grew up in both Springfield, OR. and The Dalles.. We have a 7 year old daughter named Alexis, Kinleigh is 2, and Paisley is 1. We are expecting another little girl March 2014! We love spending time together as a family, and are looking forward to whatever the future has in store for us!
