Resteraunt Week

Soooo it was resteraunt week in Denver this week and Johnny and I got to go out to dinner with Jody and Todd. It was a blast! Had an amazing Fillet Minon (Spelling).. And a yummy chocolate dessert. Macady went over to Jordan and Larissa's house and they babysat for a couple hours for us! It is sooooo wonderful to have good friends! We love them to death!

Kevin took Tessa the same morning and it was pretty emotional.. :( I cried pretty good when they left.. I have such a big heart for animals.. And it isn't just dogs, its all of God's creatures.. They all seem to tug at my heart strings.. But she is happy back in Vernal and will be well taken care of.. :) Chloe is doing well. She got a new doggy bed today and she was pretty excited about it.

 

Macady has officially mastered the roll over from tummy to back. She really has no desire to go from back to tummy yet. But I am sure that it is all a matter of time. She is sooo wiggly all the time I'm betting that she will be crawling and walking AHHHHH... :)

 

We close on our house on the 5th and will be moving in on the 8th and 9th! It's crazy that it went so fast! But I can't wait to get in it and get things put away again! :/

 

Macady had her first taste of cereal tonight! She liked it! We had a mess but she is ready for food! :)

 

She is getting so big! :)

Winter Wonderland and a new home and a little dancing

So..... Today is a white out blizzard! Kevin came out for the weekend and he looks to be staying an extra day because of the snow storm! :) Hopefully it will keep snowing and Johnny can have a snow day tomorrow! :) Well I guess I can probably let everyone know that we are under contract to buy a Condo/Townhome. It's only across the street from our current apartment so it isn't far but we are pretty excited! It will be nice to have our little own place that we can do with what we please.  It's the same size as our apartment but serveral upgrades. New granite counter tops new carpet bigger kitchen and such. We are excited. We'll be posting pictures in a few weeks. We close on the 5th of March and should be moving in the next week! They moved so stinking quick! They do things fast over here! We went and looked at on the 6th of Feb. So it only took one month to get everything done! Way Crazy!! Not looking forward to packing things up.. Thank goodness its only about 1000 yards away or less.. lol.. We will see how Macady takes things moving to a new house.. Hopefully she will be more help than problems! :)

Tessa is going to be going home with Kevin back to Vernal. She is just not the apartment type dog and she is missing the freedom of being outdoors. Mo on the other hand doesn't have such a problem with living in small living quarters. We might get another Mini Schnauzer someday. I like them too much. And they don't shed so it makes life alot easier!! :)

Macady seems to be getting bigger and bigger every day. She is getting so much more personality and Sass! She is a little stinker! She has her next doctors appointment on the 11th of March and she gets to start eating Rice and Oatmeal. I will be curious to see how much she has grown this time. She fills out almost all of her 6 month clothes already. Everyone always comments on how big she is for her age.

So we taught country swing dancing to the youth in our ward a few weeks ago and we had an absolute blast!! The kids did amazing and it was sooo much fun! I think we even got a couple of babysitters out of the deal! :) We are hoping that we will do a follow up and teach the group a few more moves! It makes me miss dancing so much! That's what made me fall in love with my husband and it gives me butterflies every time we do it! I can't help that I am a hopeless romantic.. :( Always have been always will be! Loving and thoughtful surprises seem to always get me.. :) But anyways.. That's it for now..

Macady is starting to roll over. She needs just a little encouragement but she is so close. And she is also sitting up with assistance! She is a little wobbly but she starts to fall forward and then pops herself right back. She is better at catching herself going forward than to the side or back but she is getting the hang of it. She likes tummy time but only for a five or so minutes at a time. It's amazing how much she grows every day. She gets more and more personality. Johnny and I are always talking about what she is going to be like when she gets bigger. What sports she's going to play, what she will like. I forgot to post some of the pictures I took of her on Valentines Day. She looked pretty cute! :)

A Little love and Swimming

Two days leading up to Valentines Day I decided to catch the 24 hour flu.. Yeah not by choice! It was HORRIBLE! I couldn't even walk! Johnny had to come home from work early and stay home the next day with me! I couldn't even pick Macady up I was horrified that I might drop her! Thankfully by Wednesday night I was starting to feel better. Johnny decided to take us to the movie on Valentines day and took us to see SafeHaven. It was a really good book and I was glad to see the movie. I was worried how well it would go with Macady because she has been so fussy lately, but sure enough she was an angel! We even got a compliment that she was so well behaved! So that was nice! Macady got alot of cards and a super cute outfits from Grandma Lesha and Grandma Judy. She is just a little spoiled. I suppose that is why she hasn't been sleeping lately. She used to sleep all night and then she has all the sudden decided she doesn't want to do that any more. She gets so tired and knocks out in our arms. We lay her down and she POPS her eyes wide open and will NOT go to sleep. She will stay up till midnight cooing and talking. She has found her voice lately and likes to scream. Not a mad scream just a "I'm so excited, I'm going to make sure everyone knows it" scream. It's not always so pleasent to say the least. Lol. I don't know what we are going to do with her. The only way she will sleep is with me on the futon in her room or inbetween Johnny and I in our bed.. She has us whooped I guess. But I sure hope it won't be for long because I do Not want her in my bed! I keep telling myself it's just because she is teething. She will be 4 Months old this month. She is getting really big. Her next doctors appointment is on the 11th of March and we get to start her on Rice. I know is ready for it because she always opens her mouth to anything you put towards her. Lol. She is pretty funny..


Today we decided to take Macady swimming for the first time! She always loves bath time every night so much we thought she would have a good time in the big pool. They have a salt water pool at the gym so we decided to try it out! Macady was thrilled! She loved it.. Not exactly showing it in the pictures but she was! :) Don't mind me in my swimming suit! Not quite ready for swim suit weather! But we are getting there!

We signed up for the Colorado Athletic Club two weeks ago and it has been awesome! They have the coolest things there.. Pools, tennis courts (indoor and out), Day care, yoga, a million pieces of equipment. We are set. Macady isn't so sure about being away from mom. But she is getting the hang of it. They have lots of toys she can play with and they put her in a Toy Play Saucer and she loved it! So of course we had to go and get her one!

When we first bought it she couldn't touch the bottom just yet so we put a pillow so she could. But now she can touch on her tippy toes so I know she is growing again.. Little stinker.. She also has been drooling all over the place and chewing on anything she can get her hands on. Including her hands she likes to suck on them any chance she gets.

My mom was able to come out for a week and she brought my Grandma Roth along as well! It was sooooo nice to have them out for a while! It makes me miss them sooo much more when they leave though.. While they were out here the weather was aweful which was sad because the week before we were in the high 60's almost 70 degree weather! So we didn't ge to get out and do as much as we would have liked but we did go do a few things!

While they were out we decided to go get Macady's ears pierced! Ahhhh it was a little nerv raking for me but I know I wanted to do it! So we took her to Clairs at the mall and did it! Great Grandma Roth bought her earrings and my mom was nice enough to hold her so I didn't! Lol. She was more mad about the being held down than she was about getting them pierced! They sure do look pretty though!

Blessing Day

Macady was blessed on January 6th 2013 by her Daddy in our Stonegate Ward in Colorado. All of our family was able to come out and spend the weekend with us. We went to the Aquarium for dinner on Saturday night and it was alot of fun!


A little story behind Macady's blessing dress... It was my wedding dress.. My mother and I decided that we would cut up my wedding dress and make it a mini of mine! It turned out beautifully and it fit perfect! She looked beautiful in it! She was a champ too! She slept through the whole thing! Once again soooo grateful for the gospel and the blessings it brings into our lives!

After Sacrament everyone came over to our apartment and we had sandwiches before everyone headed back home. I always get really sad when everyone has to go home. It has been the hardest part about living in Denver is being away from my family. Family is everything and it is hard not having them so close to me. It's wonderful to have the technology we have to be able to Facetime and talk on the phone every day!
