Baby Maya

We are lovin' are little Maya! Her sisters absolutely adore her and love to kiss to her, sing her songs, and point out her cute little features! Adjusting to life with 3 kids hasn't been too bad. Good thing newborns sleep lots!

Brynn loves to copy this face that Maya makes! She thinks it is funny.

The girls love to hold Maya! Their smiles are priceless!

Brynn is Two!!!

I can't believe that Brynn is now 2! She has definitely added a different spunk to our family's life! She came quickly into this world and has kept us on our feet ever since! She can be happy one minute and than a little grumpy girl the next! The day of her birthday was so fun! She knew it was her day and was so happy all day long! She ate more treats than usual and was so good to share with Kajsa! Some family came over that evening and she was on cloud nine! She loved, loved, loved all the attention!

Some fun things about this fun 2 year old!

  • Big personality
  • Been in a big girl bed for a month and loves it!
  • Loves playing with Kajsa
  • Has to give Kajsa a big hug before her nap
  • Loves to eat pretty much anything
  • Can carry on a conversation with you, but she only knows what she is talking about!
  • She is such a good mamma to her baby and the other dolls
  • Loves all sorts of toys: cars, dolls, etc.
  • Favorite song: Up Up (Twinkle Twinkle Little Star) (**two months later she calls it Twinkle Star**)
  • Favorite color: Blue


She actually slept in a little on her birthday! We went in to sing her happy birthday and give her a tray full of goodies!


This girl needed a new BYU shirt because she would wear her current one every day if she could. When I tell her to pick out something to wear for the day, she usually says, "Wa Wa U shirt?" We really aren't brainwashing that much, I promise!

Her BIG elephant! She kept calling it her BIG elephant! It is the most cuddly elephant ever and it is as big as her!

Excited to finally dig into her cake! She helped me make it and was tempted the whole day to lick that frosting!

Happy...

I don't usually write posts like this, but this afternoon I was reflecting and noticing many things that make me happy!

In no particular order:

  • Making Valentines with Kajsa for her preschool class.
  • Having frozen cookie dough in the freezer to snitch on.
  • Humming songs to Brynn and having her fall asleep.
  • Listening to Kajsa sing a primary song almost word for word and her not knowing that I am listening and tears filling in my eyes.
  • Having potatoes fresh from the farm that are actually bigger than my fist and not those that are bought from the store and the size of my four year old's fist.
  • Going to the doctor and him telling me that I probably won't be going until my due date!
  • Having an awesome hairdresser that makes me look so much better!
  • Playing more with my two girls before the third makes her debut.
  • Having dinner cooking in the crockpot.
  • My two year old telling me, "Sowwy mamma" over and over after she drew with pen all over our brand new leather couch we had only had for two weeks. (This happened just last week and now I can smile about her sincere apology.)
