Our church starts at 9 am (which has been really difficult for us) I usually go straight to the mothers room with Felicity to finish getting her ready for church and stuff with a few other moms. We were having our Christmas program when one of the other Lady's says to me "Did you see that Elder Dallin H. Oaks is here!?" "No!! Really I came straight in here that's awesome!" When just then he started talking he wasn't on the program there just happen to be a few extra minutes.

Russell was teaching Gospel Doctrine so we went to that class and sat in the front row. I really love when my husband teaches its just easier to listen I think he is a great teacher and I feel blessed to have him in my life. About halfway through the class Elder Oaks came into the class just as Russell started to paraphrase a quote by him.

After class was over he walked up to Russ and told him that he was a very gifted teacher! I just had to walk up them so Russell introduced us. It was a wonderful experience and a wonderful Sunday! :)

Thirty-Two

This has been a fun growing and learning week for Felicity because she has learned to clap, she can go from sitting to on her hands and knees, and then from her knees to sitting, and she is beinging to be the little climber.

She loves the camera and knows excatly what to do when I have it.. hehe :)

She wants anything we are eating from icecream to cheerios..

Haws Christmas party

ugh once again I cant ever post the pictures where I want them!!

We finally decorated our tree! It turned out really I think..
We are very excited for the Christmas celebations to being! The first party started at my Gandma Haws house we had wonderful food and fun games for the great grandkids.

We also had a Baldwin dinner at Russell's mom house but I have no pictures from that but it was great to see everyone we dont see them very often.

Seven Months!!

Felicity is growing super fast! She loves to help her dad do arm workouts- baby bicep curls~Felicity loves to eat banana's, pea's, pear's, peach's,pizza and grandpa dale's doughnuts... :) The only thing I can think of that she won't eat is carrots. She still has very little hair but it is starting to get a LITTLE longer. Felicity's favorite toy is probably my cellphone...



yesterday we had a party at my parents house we ate pizza while we watched Elf Felicity kept reaching for pizza so I cut a few bites and let her taste it then I went into the other room to clean up and see what was left over when my mom called me.. Felicity crawled( well army crawled) over to where one of the other kids had left their plate of pizza on the floor and Felicity had the WHOLE piece eating and loving it! I wish I took a picture!

eating grandpa dale's doughnuts..

Here is are greeting card!:)

We had family pictures done and Felicity's 6 month old picture here are few of

my favorites...

Felicity is getting really fast at army crawling and loves to rock back and forth on her hands and knees and is still working on figuring out how to move. She has not been wanting to go to bed at night this week no matter how tired she is she fights its so hard to stay awake and scream.

just because...

28 weeks

Felicity loves relaxing with her daddy reading story books

This week Felicity has the rocking motion down and can get up on her hands and knees she just doesnt know how to move her hands to crawl, but hey we might have a crawler on our hands by Christmas. :)

I love watching her grow and learn new things. She discovered the tile kitchen and thought it was fun that she could make noise with her hand hitting the floor.

My oldest sister had a birthday we celebrated playing laser tag and bowling, and mini golf. Felicity LOVED the bows off her presents!

Chucky Monkey

Wow 6 Months old! She is still such a happy baby and loves her sleep! She rolls everywhere but is working on trying to figure out how to move forward she is getting closer on getting her knees under her but the doesnt know what to do so puts them back down and usually ends up traveling backward... hehe She loves to sit up and be so big! She has two teeth on the bottom so loves to bite everything from paper to anyone elses fingers..and yes even codys toys! She eats oatmeal and rice cereal but still perfers breast milk the most! so because of that I miss sour watermelons and spicy food... I think that is when she spits up aTON when I eat them ..I dont even eat that spicy of food but still... ugh this upsets me so much!! ugh the sacrifices mommy make but I love her so much! I found her sitting up on her bouncer the other day I guess she thinks she has grown out of it.. sad day.. :(

Felicity is a pro at rolling now it has just been within the last few days though she has fully been able to roll on her tummy and get her arm unstuck. She usually stakes a 2 hour nap but today after just 45min. I heard her in her room talking and laughing so I went in to check on her and this is what I found... I now need to keep things off the floor I dont want her to get because she was very good at rolling across the room to get papers and picture frames apparently they were just so much more exciting then her toys right next to her. while I was dusting and cleaning the living room! The result of the new learned activity and a very short nap is I had one very sleepy baby early on my hands..

Happy Halloween!

We had a busy Halloween we were going going all day long! We had to go exchange Russell's costume because we got it out of the package and it was a womens size shirt and that was just not going to work then Russell of course was working so we went and visited him! :) We went to party with Marci's family but on our way bella had fallen and marci had to take her to the E.R she had to get 3 stiches poor girl but she was so brave and sweet and wanted to go trick-or treating so they went Felicity was getting sick of being in her costume all day so we didnt go.

On this day

On this day (well yesterdayOct. 14) 4 years ago I married my best friend for all eternity! We usually take a trip for our anniversary but since Felicity and I just can't stand leaving her for more than a few hours we decided to stay home this year. We were lucky that Russell was able to get off early on Wednesday so we got to celebrate for two days! My hubby is the sweetest because he got me earings and necklace that is Felicity's birthstone color. On Wednesday we all went to lunch at Rodizio grill we had never been there so it was fun. Then we wnt to Yogotogo my new favorite icecream place. :) so yummy..

On Thursday grandma Beth watched Felicity so that we could go to the temple and do sealings! yay that is the best! For Lunch we went to the Cheesecake Factory, and then we headed up to my parents house because Felicity's halloween costume came so I wanted to go show my mom, it ended up being kinda big but super cute! when I download the pictures off my camera I will post them. For a treat we went back to yogotogo.. see I told you it was my new favorite place!

We had alot of fun just being able to spend the day together since he works alot! I thought it would be fun to post a few pictures of the day we started our lives together. enjoy.

Felicity at 5 months old!

I can't believe how fast she is growing! I think I say that every post but it is still true! This week we went shopping for some bigger clothes and had a great time. She has been waking up an hour earlier and then being crankier then usual which has thrown our perfect schedule all out of wack! She likes to grab anything and everything within her reach. She tried cereal a few times and seems to like it but only eats a little.. I gave her applsause because she has been wanting food that I am eating and while now, one day at my moms she was complaining a ton wanting our icecream my mom had applesause so I let her try it she wasnt to sure about it..but she didnt seem to not or to like it but I havnt tried it sinceI need to get a better chair for her to sit in to eat I think it will work better then the bumbo. She rolled once but not anymore so I dont think she did it on purpose but close each time... and she likes to sit..

Does any one really read this

I have been meaning to update my blog but every time I start reading everyone Else's blog and run out of time to work on my own and plus I don't think many people even read this so whats the point anyway. .

Felicity is 20 Weeks old. She is a great sleeper and sleeps all night! :) She is getting closer to rolling over but has not made it over all the way yet. She has had a few bites of cereal but isn't quite sure she likes it yet. She is in size 3 diapers, her fav. toy is the rattle.

Last weekend I took a Thai Massage class and loved it! Felicity stayed with grandma Beth and it was really hard to leave her mostly because she wouldn't eat from a bottle! I think she was having a hard time adjusting since she is with me all the time, but we all survived and it was great.

Russell is staying super busy with work but it makes it all worth it so that I can stay home and be mom.

I came it the room from workingout and my family was asleep on the floor
we were so excited to get the Halloween decor

Favorite things

My new favorite thing to do is the Wii game Just Dance.there are songs from MC Hammer, Beach Boys, Katy Perry and many more. You only have to hold the wii remote and dance. I really get a great workout with this game Russell beats me almost everytime I play with him so we decided to take to my parents house so the whole family could try it. We all had so much fun having our own little dance party.

Felicity is finally feeling better from her cold, but today she had her four month check up which ment that she had to get shots I feel so bad for her she has had a hard couple of weeks because this round of shots is being different for her for some reason well because at two months the shots made her really sleepy, today you can tell that her legs are in more pain her face when she cries just breaks my heart she does alot of the whole silent cry thing and needed alot of cuddle time which she got of course. I put her in a warm bath before bed because even though is had tynol she was SCREAMING, once she was in the bath she did great she LOVES the water but as soon as I got her out she was back to SCREAMING until she finally cried herself to sleep in my arms I held her for probably close to 2hours until I new she was completly asleep..( I just put her in her crib so i'm hoping she will be able to get so rest.)

Four Month Stats

Weight~ 15.9 lbs

Height~ 26.3 in

Felicity is still not rolling over yet so hopefully this will happen soon. She can reach, hold and play with toys. She loves her rattle and binkie the most. She will sit in the bumbo while I do the dishes. She loves to dance with her daddy and he can usally get her to laugh but I guess I'm just not as funny because I can't get her to laugh. oh dang it.. poor baby...

Felicity has found Cody and thinks he is funny she was having a blast watching him run all over today chasing the toy and barking out the sliding door window at strangers!

I want my baby back!

Ever since Felicity was born I have had the easiest baby EVER! she was so happy just playing on the floor with her toys and telling alot of stories. She was a wonderful sleeper at night and even was starting to like her crib.
Now as you can see in the picture above she has not been so happy just about a week now. She has got a really bad cold virus which means snot, snot a more snot. This all started last Friday being tired and just not the same baby I know then on Saturday and Sunday she had a Fever of about 102 and 103 since it was the weekend I just gave her tynol and watched her. On Monday the doctor called to remind me of her 4 month check-up so I told them she had, had a fever and asked if they could fit her in well ofcourse they wanted to see her. well after 2hours later we were finally home and there is really nothing a can do for her except watch her and let her immune system work through this cold. I feel so bad for her I wish I knew better of what to do.
It is really hard to get thing done because all she wants to do is be held! If she isnt asleep then she is crying and screaming for a couple of reasons: first is because I am either trying to get her to eat, which she won't for longer then 3 to 5 min. at a time because longer then that then she starts pushing, kicking, and screaming cause she doesnt want to eat anymore (I am worrying she is not eating all she needs to and second: I am cleaning all the snot out of her nose with drops and the grabber thingy so she can breath and hopefully eat. Third is because she is tired can't get comfortable and stay asleep.
I hope this passes soon and that my sweet baby will be back and we can get things back on schedule and her back in her crib.
