7 Months

Life has been so crazy I really don't know where to begin. If I ever thought I was busy before I didn't know what I was talking about. I'm serverly behind on photos but the good part is I have lots of photos to share. This momma will have the entire week of christmas off (can I get a hallelujah!) and I'm looking forward to posting all the happy things :)

I thought I better take a minute and post her 7 months pictures before its time to post her 8 month

These photos are getting more challenging because she no longer just sits there. Let the fun begin!

Halloween

This halloween was definitely the most fun by far because we got to dress little Rilynn up. Last halloween I announced I was pregnant and this halloween I had a really cute flower and witch. 

We went to Swore farms with our friends the Hubbards and the kids were so cute I'm glad we went

Rilynn and her boyfriend Hawkins 

I die laughing everytime I look at this sequence of photos

I'm not opposed to arranged marriage but that might not be necessary with these two

Rilynn loves Dave it kind of melts my heart 

After we got back from the pumpkin patch it was time for costume number two a little witch for a neighborhood party.

Maylee (lady bug), Rilynn (witch), Hawkins (monster), Jet (Elmer Fudd) and Deacon (penguin)

These children were so adorable I laughed forever at their costumes. Such a fun age!

Maylee and Rilynn were so cute together. Rilynn obviously wasn't the softest but Maylee took it like a champ.

It's evident my child like to reach for faces

Rilynn and Brielle. Aren't they too cute in their matching costumes

That night my mom had a work party near my house so we went to check out their costumes and to show Rilynn off. I thought they made a great Fred and Wilma. My dad has crazy hair on but you can't see it very well because it's so black. 

Rilynn loved the loud music playing and went and danced with poppy on their dance floor

For halloween we went to my parents trunk-or-treat and my mom made these little witch shoes for her

After making the rounds to Dad and Grandma and Grandpa to show the cutest little witch off we went to see Dave's family and they couldn't get enough of her! It was a great night and Rilynn loved all the attention. 

Meet Dave

So, I guess it's time to meet Dave! He has kinda been a big part of our life as of late and this is thee journal so here it goes. 

Dave and I were set up on a blind date by our awesome friend Spencer. Spencer kept telling both of us for quite a while what a match the two of us were. We consented and I thought it was a pity date, but I've learned that he really did want to go on a date with me :) 

To make a long story short Spencer was exactly correct we were quite the match. We had an instant connection and have been spending time together since then. It didn't take us long to figure out we had something great! 

Everyone is begging me for details on this cute boy so if you really want to know here you go. He is 27  and from Pocatello. We actually went to the same high school but not at the same time. He served his mission in Spain. He tries to trick people to think he is shy but he really isn't :) He is awesome at tennis and likes to play the guitar. He is a hilarious person and keeps me laughing. He loves to tease and is a expert pranker. He comes from an awesome family and loves his nephews. He is very accident prone but we love him anyways! He can grow a beard like no ones business. He owns a house in my neighborhood, which is very convenient. He is the most kind, selfless and patient person. And that is why I love him! 

If you have seen me lately you will probably agree that I've been just a little bit happy :) I usually can't stop smiling because this boy makes me happier than I knew possible. I know God has a plan for everyone and sometimes it takes time and hard trials to figure that out. I hope that I can be the person that Dave deserves because he is AMAZING and helps me be a better person. 

I may have tricked him into this photo while testing the lighting for a photo shoot but I'm glad I did because seriously look how cute he is!

6 months

I can't believe my baby is half way to a year old. Time goes by so fast but we are enjoying every minute.

I just have to post more of these pictures to show her playful personality 

Rilynn is training to be a model... or a diva one of the two

Best Friends

Rilynn is so lucky to have the best grandpa ever. We call him Poppy. They love each other and it just melts my heart. Rilynn always lights up with she sees her Poppy and Cici! These two were watching football and the moment was too cute not to capture.

5 months

So I'm obviously way behind do to the fact my baby is almost 6 months. I took the photo on schedule that's all that matters right! It's been a really busy month but we are loving life and we are so great! More updates to come

My favorite picture of her so far. I have the cutest baby!

This is the look I got after one too many pictures :)

Ropes Course

I am in this years class of Leadership Pocatello and I'm loving it! I have the BEST class and had such a blast with them on our retreat. We went to twin falls and went to the ropes course which really pushed me I loved it. We had the most hilarious debate on gun control I can't remember the last time I laughed that hard. I'm excited about all the monthly adventures I will have with my class

We had to get three of us on top of this pole with a very small platform on the top. I thought it was impossible but we were able to pull the last lady up with nothing short of a miracle. 

This is SO much scarier than it looks. You climb on the top of this really high pole then jump a very far distance to grab the trapeze bar. The hardest part for most was getting both your feet on the top of this small pole while standing up. Don't let the safety rope deceive you it was so help at all. I had the hardest time jumping because you are so high and the bar was most definitely out of my reach. I prayed the lady down below would catch my slack before I hit the ground. Needless to say I was happy to be on the ground. 

I also climbed to the top of a very tall rock wall. I felt pretty hard core :)
