Hi everyone, yes I am finally updating my blog. I have a very nice friend (Ashley) who helps me out, She also took these CUTE pictures of Lyla for me. We have all been doing well and Lyla is growing up so fast. She now says da-da and if you can imagine dad was very proud. I guess if I get to have most of the neat experiences first Ry can have this one. lol Lyla is sitting up and rolling over really well now and she is always such a happy girl. I am so blessed to have her in my life and I love being a mom. We went to Greenbluff on Saturday with some friends and that is where Ashley took the pictures. Lyla has slept in our room until a few days ago and it has been a little hard for me to let her sleep in the other room even though she sleeps better. Silly mom I know. I have to check on her all the time I am such a nerd. i don't know what I am going to do when she goes to school, I will probably be that dorky mom the can't leave, crying in the corner. boo hoo. My brother Brent is coming home from his mission on the first of November and I am so excited for him to meet Lyla. Lyla ate green beans today for the first time and she did very well no gagging or any funny faces. Well I know I am bad at blogging so I will do my best to be better but no promises. xoxo hugs and kisses xoxo

A Few New Pics Of This Cute Girl

I thought I would get on here real quick and post a couple of new pics of little Lyla. Everything is going well. We did have a little scare last week; we had to take her back to the hospital to get her jaundice levels under control. She had to stay under the lights and get hooked up to an IV for a few days; but is doing much better now. Take Care

Baby Lyla is finally here!

I thought I had better get on here while Leslie and Lyla are both fast asleep recovering, and post a few pics of our new little girl. Leslie and Lyla are both doing great. Lyla was delivered yesterday afternoon at 1:14, after five hours of labor. Leslie did great; she was quite the trooper, I was proud of her. I guess I had better give the final stats, as is usually everyone's first question: 7 pounds 4 ounces - 20 inches long. We couldn't be happier, she is just beautiful.

Baby Lyla Is Now 7 Months!!!

I am 30 weeks along now and we are so excited for our little girl to get here. We were able to get a 3D ultrasound and it was so amazing. We love seeing her every chance we get. She loves to move around and dance and Ryan has fun watching my whole stomach move. She weighs a little over 3 pounds now and the ultrasound tec. told us that her feet were about 2 1/2 in. long. Being pregnant is such a miracle. I feel so blessed to have Lyla in our lives. It is amazing how much I learn from her even though she is still inside of me. I am getting bigger, as you can tell, and I can safely bet that by the time she is due I will be very big. lol

We love you all and look forward to seeing you in the summer.

xoxo,

Ryan, Leslie, and Baby Lyla

Christmas Work Party


Ryan and I also went to my work party during our Christmas vacation. It was great to catch up with everyone that we haven't seen in a while.

Fun At The Cabin




We went to the cabin over our Christmas vacation and had a blast. Ryan and Tyler had fun skiing and snowboarding, and all the brothers had fun snowmobilling. We took my brother Daniel with us and Daniel and I did a little bit of snowshoeing. We had a great time as we always do.
