Halloween Sneak Peak

You know when you see something really cool and you think, "I could do that!"and really you can't? I did that yesterday with sugar cookies.  They turned out a lot cuter in my head.

Dallas' own personalized sugar cookies ;)

And a sneak peak at Amaya in her adorable caterpillar costume.

We love Halloween! We're so excited!

A note about the background/music.  I was looking for a Halloween background and I stumbled across a WICKED background.  If you didn't know, Wicked is pretty much amazing and also my favorite musical. 

Watch Me Grow!

Wow! Where has the time gone? I can't believe Amaya is already three months old!  Life is so busy being a full time mom and a part time student, I never have time to post to the blog.  So, here's all the stuff I've missed posting.

Two days old.

3 weeks old.

Bathtime @ 1 month old.

Hanging out when Dad's out of town @ 3 months

Tummy Time.

We borrowed Grandma's jumper!

As you can tell, she thinks it's pretty awesome.

After the jumper and just prior to nap time. :)

Amaya has learned to scoot just a little.  It really freaks me out when I leave the room and come back to find her off the blanket. 

This picture was taken today. Amaya loves to grab onto her clothes.  Not only are most of them now stretched out, they're pretty soggy from being in her mouth!

Two weeks ago Amaya was 12 lbs. 9 oz. and 23 inches long.  She's growing so fast! Yesterday I was giving Amaya a sponge bath and she managed to kick over the cup of water twice and pee on the floor.  What a pain! Dallas and her both thought it was pretty funny. We love our crazy little girl!

one down...a million to go!

I'm writing this with Amaya on my lap so excuse any typos :) she thinks she needs to be held all day.

Sunday was our first anniversary! yay!

They say the first year is the hardest and if that's the case, I guess we're going to have an even funner time this next year!
Anyway, I thought I'd post some pictures of our wedding.  There's more at the bottom of the page if you're like me and like to look at all the pictures.

the whole fam damily.. and then some

it was very hot that day and the sun was very bright :)

We were planning on going to the IF Temple then out to dinner, but RIGHT before Dallas came home, Amaya had three blowouts in one hour! Dallas came home to find both of us covered in poop, so we improvised and went to Winger's in Rexburg and a movie.  Oh, the joys of parenthood.  She's lucky she's so cute or she'd be in big trouble!

Our Beautiful Baby Girl

We had Amaya's newborn pictures taken when she was five weeks old. They turned out so great! I couldn't fit them all in one post so I made a slideshow. Below are some of the favorites.


Our photographer was Brianne Serrano. She did such a wonderful job! Her website is http://photosbybrianne.blogspot.com/

Happy Birthday Amaya!

I haven't had a chance to post but our little baby Amaya Belle was born at 4:17 p.m. on July 16. She was 7 lbs 9 oz. and was 21 inches long. We love her so much she's such a joy to have in our family!

My cousin's baby, Easton, was born 2 days after Amaya so we visited him and Maleyna at the hospital.
