{one month}

one month old!

Can you believe it!

She is such a good baby.

We made a quick, surprise trip to Utah for Kaden's baptism. Paizley and Paxton were great little travelers! 16 hours in the car in 3 days was a little much... but so worth it! It was so great to see Chad's ENTIRE family and GG!

Paizley discovered she likes her binky this weekend... which keeps her even happier!

(Lindsay.... recognize the cute outfit??)

3 weeks old & Look-a-Likes

Can't believe Paizley is 3 weeks old!

Below is a picture of her ( and her twin)

They have looked pretty much identical since the second she was born!

All Dressed Up

Today was the first day we attended church since Paizley was born. We just went to Sacrament Meeting and I forgot what it was like to have a newborn at church.

Paxton: 2 1/2 years

Paizley: 2 1/2 weeks

I thought they both looked so cute!

Introducing...

Labor:

We had to wait a few days to be induced. The plan was to be induced on Monday evening, but the hospital was full for 2 days. Finally, they were able to fit me in on Wednesday evening. I went in that evening to start on some drugs that would make me dilate. They broke my water the next morning at almost 8:00 am, got my epidural around 9:00 am, and sweet Paizley arrived around 10:00. I can't complain at all (except, that I was having contractions all night and the on-call Dr. wouldn't break my water and I knew it would go super fast once they did... and I was right). I have been spoiled with two easy deliveries. Paizley was born with tons of dark dark hair, but it didn't seem to grow as much in the front (thank goodness for headbands and bows!). She also looks a lot like Pax. So far, she has been such an easy baby. Paxton loves his "baby sissy" but has definitely had some difficulties adjusting to the "big brother" role.

Paizley's Blessing & Moving:

I checked out of the hopsital Friday evening and all our family arrived a few hours later. On Saturday we blessed Paizley at out church, went to brunch, and began moving our stuff out of our house. We put all our belongings in a storage unit for the summer and left Pocatello. Paizley's blessing was wonderful and feel so blessed that Chad is a worthy priesthood holder. I have to say Thank you to our great families who came and moved all our stuff and dealt with my hormonal craziness! We love you all so much!

Paizley is wearing my blessing dress I wore 26 years ago!

Reno:

Chad left for Reno on Mother's Day and I stayed behind for a week at my mom's. It wasn't easy being away from Chad and he had a hard time leaving me, Paxton, and 3-day old Paiz. I made it down here a few days ago and it has been nice to be all together again. A huge thanks to my mom and grandma who drove down here with me! It is going to be so nice to stay home with my 2 kids all summer and not have to worry about work.

In other news:

1. CHAD WAS ACCEPTED INTO GRADUATE SCHOOL IN POCATELLO!! So, it looks like we will be returning to Poky in August.

2. We are also looking forward to Hailey's wedding in August! It is sad being so far away and missing out on all the wedding planning but I am so grateful for cell phones and the Internet to stay in touch! Welcome to the family, Tyson!

STAY TUNED!! MANY, MANY MORE PICTURES TO COME!!

Long Boarding with Daddy

Chad got a long board from his company he is working for this summer. Surprise, Surprise- Paxton loved it!

Paxton loved riding down the street with his daddy!

Isn't he just so kissable and huggable!!

We think he is pretty cute!
