BIRTHDAY GIRL!!

I can't believe my little girl is already a year old! It's gone by so fast! She's such a joy and we're so blessed to have her :) We had a little party in our back yard on Saturday( Yes we have one now thanks to my dear Nick and it's wonderful!!) and then went to lunch on her birthday at Fredricos (Thanks Grandpa and Grandma) and thanks to all for the wonderful gifts. She loves all of them!! We were going to go to the zoo but the weather was rainy-surprise, so after lunch we went to Sam's Club and let Reece ran wild. She LOVED it!!








She had a baby sesame street birthday theme. I make the cupcakes, Not too shabby if I do say so myself :)

Eating more cupcakes :)

and some fun animals she loves

Mother's Day

Mother's Day this year was wonderful!! I have the greatest husband ever! He first sent this AMAZING bouquet of flowers to my work from him and Reece. Then he made this slide show of my first year as a mom! Brought tears to my eyes! So thoughtful! And my sweet baby even slept in so I could catch up on sleep! Love those two so much!!
The picture doesn't give them justice!! SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!
Ready for church.
We went to Chuck-a-Rama for my Mom's birthday Saturday. It was a tad busy so they had us eat outside, which actually was rather nice. Reece was snooping through her purse and found some sunglasses and just loved sporting them around for all. She was loving the attention, as always:)
With new cousin William. I can't believe how much she loves little kids. It's so sweet!
Out side pulling weeds...and flowers:)
Munching down on her favorite popcorn!! This kid can't get enough:)
She's loving the sunny weather when we get it. She'll bring you her shoes and lift up her feet so you can put them on so we can go outside. Then she'll bring you your shoes. She's catching on fast!!

Easter at 11 months

This Easter was enjoyable as you can imagine :) We were lucky enough to have Nick be off work and we were able to spend some fun time together as a family! It was great. Reece was able to participate in a few egg hunts. She was a little timid but still managed to bring home ample amounts of sugar:) The events started Saturday morning with River Heights egg hunt and then to Paradise's where she also attempted to catch a bunny. We were lucky enough to have her on the smaller end of the kids so she luckley didn't catch one:) She mainly enjoyed being with all the other kids and the candy was just a bonus.:) Then Easter Sunday we woke up and went to church with my mom. This sweet little boy who sat in front of us was pretty intrigued by our little Reece. He came back, hugged her, and gave her a kiss or two before his dad pulled him away. Pretty sweet :) After church we headed to Wellsville for a yummy lunch and yet another egg hunt then dinner at my mom's for yet some more food and candy :) We all enjoyed spending time with family and make memories! Thanks everyone for the meals and candy!

The Easter Bunny made it to our house and brought Reece a fluffy bunny and two little pink rattle cars

And brought daddy a four wheeler! Reece enjoys it too :):) Nick took her around the block and she was bouncing on the seat the whole time

At Pam's finding some candy (well I guess she really didn't need to find it, it was strategically placed so she just needed to bend and grab)

Daddy had to help with the high ones :)

Blake was so sweet. Reece was able to go in first but she just stood there a little overwhelmed. Blake noticed and brought her an egg :) So cute

This was taken at the Paradise egg hunt. She again had one strategically placed in front of her. She picked it up but then was trying to share with the boy next to her

This was at the River Heights hunt. It was a little chilly so we didn't really hunt for much :)


On another note...A few weeks ago we were able to stop by the Baby Animal Days. It wasn't the best weather so they moved the animals that they could indoors. This was a little bear they had. They are so funny to watch. They are just like little babies. Pretty cute

Her favorite animals were the calves and baby goats, but she enjoyed all of them :)

Walking on the grass with Oli and in Paradise searching for eggs

WALKING and more

She's walking ALL OVER!! Just the other day she had my phone up to her ear and was walking around jabbering. So CUTE:) The videos below are what Nick was able to catch one night before bed. Reece was laughing hysterically...at what we aren't quite sure but she thought she was SO FUNNY!


Chick Dayz at Cal Ranch :) She loved the baby chicks and baby ducks!

10 MONTHS!

I'm in shock how quick time is flying by! Reece is getting so big, too fast:( Recap on the last month and her milestones...she's taking steps!! I know, she's too young for it but it's happening. Last week, the day we got back from my sisters, she walked 2 steps. Then the next day she went to 4. She's a hit and miss if she's in the mood to walk or if she just wants to crawl and get there quick but she can do it! I'm so proud of her!! She's walking wonderfully with her walker, or anything she can hang on too. I think she just likes the reassurance. Yesterday she decided the garbage can was the perfect height:) I turned around and she'd walked it across our kitchen. Silly girl:) She also is climbing up and down stairs now and LOVES every minute. It's a good thing our house doesn't come equipped with that feature or I think we'd be doing stairs ALL day! She loves to clap and wave and when you sing to her, she tries to sing along:) She's into copying people's actions so watch out:) For example, yesterday during sacrament meeting Reece was watching the conductor. She was fixed on her. Then she started waving her wrist and singing along! So stinking cute. Nick and I were both trying to hold in the laughter. She LOVES babies and animals!! I pulled out my cabbage patch from back in the day and she can't get enough:) She'll drag it around and give her "kisses" (She opens her mouth and eats her nose) So cute. And when it comes to animals she can't get enough, especially the taxidermy. We were at Cabela's a bit ago and she was laughing so hard at them all, with her binki in of coarse. Then we went to Cal Ranch and Als and she was fixed on the heads above the gun cases! So funny. She'll love the zoos when it gets a little warmer. Can't wait to see her reactions.
So funny, Reece and I were folding laundry and guess who decided it would be more comfortable to be IN the basket :)


Taking a few steps, but I had the camera set on picture not video, my bad:)



at At's Sporting Goods

Montana Fun

Last weekend we made a quick but so worth it trip to Missoula to visit Rach and her fam! Reece LOVED it! We went to the pool, the carousel, some shopping, and were able to have some enjoyable, relaxing, bonding time just hanging out! Thanks SO SO MUCH for the hospitality and company! And special thanks to Jax Man for letting us use his bed:) It was nice and comfy!! We'll have to play again soon!
She didn't quite know what to think about the spinning, nor I, after one ride I was a little loopy ;) She did have some occasional smiles during the ride though we just missed them with the camera but you can imagine :)




Reece liked the water park but it was a bit on the cold side. We spent most of the time in the hot (warm) tub. It was so relaxing! Nick and Haynes were even able to get a few runs down the slides. Sorry, didn't get pics of those.
