What could be better than the green hills of Missouri..

It all started on the 18 hour drive toward our home land. We stopped and stayed the night in Wyoming. We arrived in Missouri the next day.

We were so excited to see the little Callie Grace. I think they look so much alike. I can tell they are going to be best buds, just like their Mommies.

We also went to Hannibal, MO. Home of Samuel Clemens.(aka Mark Twain) It was the very first time our whole little family had been a float the Mississippi River. We loved it.

Thanks to Tessa and Tal Jr. for showing us around.

BLESSING DAY!

Alexis did so well she didn't cry or poop on her dress. Those were the two things I was a little scared of. We are so happy to have a wonderful Daddy that could give her a name and a blessing, and the greatest and only way to do that is through the power of the Priesthood.

We are so happy to have been there with our family.

What was really special was that it was fathers day. That was a sure treat to have all our dads there. Especially, our New Daddy.

Thanks to my Nita Bonita and your Beautiful family for all the great times we had. A shout out to you, you are such an example to me and I will always Love you. P.S I miss you so much.

Do you think they look alike? I think they kinda do. Except for the major difference of hair. It seems that Callie is not having any problems with Hair growth. Alexis on the other hand, will it seems as though she is handing her hair over to Callie. She keeps balding.

Thanks Papa and Grandma Sandy for making some good ol' cooking. You really should open a restaurant. Haha. We had so much fun.

We enjoyed our time with the Henderson Family. Thanks for giving us such good time.

Alexis is so lucky to have such a wonderful family (she missed those that could not come and hopes to see you soon). Thanks for the Pal John Family for coming to spend time with her.

Alexis slept pretty well in the arms of her Papa. Thanks Dad. We miss everyone so much, and can't wait to visit again.

A life Changed in Seconds

Daddy does love his little girl, and no matter what he says she loves her Daddy too. I'm starting to think she looks more like him than she does me.

Thanks to all those that gave their time, and efforts to welcome little Alexis. Thanks to Aunt Chelsea and Aunt Kaitlin for picking out such cute outfits. We could not be more grateful for such a wonderful Family. Thanks uncle Jared and Grandma Val for coming to help out. We can't to see the rest of the Fam soon!

This picture reminds me of a Gangster, so yep we have a little G-UNIT in the house.

Our Great Bundle of Joy

Alexis Brielle was born on May 12th. She weighed 6 lbs. 9 oz. and was 18 1/2 inches long. I couldn't help but cry the minute I saw her. She is so beautiful, and we are so glad that we get to be her parents. All though she might regret it, cause we are kind of weird. I pushed for about an hour and half but soon after she came without me having to push at all. The contractions did the work. I just wish they had done more of the work. HA

I TRIED BEING CREATIVE FOR ONCE

I was watching some good ol' HGTV and saw some pillows they had and really liked them. I originally had red and brown pillows but I decided it was time for a change. SO.. I sewed all my pillows by hand with new Fabric. Although I like it, it took way to long. I really want a sewing machine. So now my pillows are plum and green. I see now that I really appreciate my things when I have made them myself, I think I might keep trying to think of new ideas with this new so called "creative" wave that I have going on.

AlLmoSt ThEre!

I am about 35 Weeks, only a month and half to GO!

We are so EXCITED for our sweet little girl to come.
