Blessing day and more

Palmer Grandparents!

Christiansen grandparents!

Christiansen great grandparents!

The blessing day was also Dallin's dad's birthday so Jordan and Dal worked very hard on this wooden tie they cut, painted, and pieced together themselves!

The boys looking tired after a long fun day!

This is just a ridiculously cute picture of my son in his outfit from his cousins Aspen and Millie!

Emerie sampling the Mookie's bottle!

Mitch taking his turn with the bottle! This thing is awesome! Joan found it for Mitch's baby shower! It is now a room decoration/ toy!

Mitch got sick this past week and a half so we have had a humidifier on him.... he is still not so sure what he thinks about it!

The Flying BABY!!!

Mitchell's first walk in his big seat of his stroller! Out on a Sunday walk!

The boys enjoying a yummy treat! Celebrating Dallin getting a super amazing scholarship and BYU's awesome win!

How I feel most days.... slightly retarded.

A close up of our delicious cookies with hopes that our team will do as well tomorrow as they did on their last game! Go cougars! (Someday we'll have a video of Mitch doing cool dances like Addie and Lexi :))

One day.....

One day....
I'll clean my house and it will stay clean.
I will be on time.
My homework will get done when I plan.
I won't go low at night anymore and end up devouring the entire kitchen in two minutes flat.
I won't feel so emotional from rollercoaster hormones due to pregnancy or post pregnancy.
My jeans will fit the way they used to.
I'll have dinner ready before 8:00pm.
I will get to exercise again.
I will get to sleep through the night.
..... but when that day comes my baby won't be little anymore.
He won't calm down- only when I hold him.
He won't fall asleep in my arms, holding his blanket with his arm
and my finger with his hand.
He won't smile and make cute noises when I sing to him.

So I'll find contentment somewhere in between and love my life right now because eventually that one day will come, and I'll probably miss right now.

I got in!

We found out last Friday that I was accepted into U of U's nursing program! So I will begin the program this May and be finished with a bachelors in Nursing next August! And then we leave for China! Life never slows down does it.

Thanks to the donation of tickets from my parents, Mitch was able to go to his first BYU basketball game with his parents! Wearing proper attire of course; his BYU shirt and basketball socks! He loved it and was very excited about the game and about half way through decided he was tired and slept through the second of half of the time we were at the game!
We took a vacation for president's day! Yeah! We got to go visit Antelope Island since it is right next to Dallin's hometown of "Sewersqueeze"! We had so much fun! And Dallin worked very hard to get a picture this close to the Bison!

There is a small coyote in this picture. Play where is Waldo and see if you can find it!

Two cute boys and a buffalo!

I tried to make Mitch ride the buffalo but we both just ended up looking confused and silly!

Mitch got to meet his Mitchell grandparents for the first time! The main reason for our trip back to Dallin's hometown area!

Mitch already reading with his dad!

So CUTE! DAllin caught him sleeping with his thumb in his mouth (which both of his parents also did as babies/ children) and holding his ear!

Here is our evidence of our darling boy laughing!
Both of his grandpas have now achieved making Mitch laugh also. Papa Palmer by taking to him and showing Mitch himself in the mirror. And Grandpa Randy by wiggling Mitch's ears and talking to him!
