Chica

A couple months ago we got a new addition to our family. Chica is a cute little female Mutt-i-gree, that is a little ball of energy. We got her when she was 8 weeks old. However she is now about 4 months.

My Baby Boy is ONE!!!

Breckan is now One as of January 28th. He has grown so much over the past 12 months, and learned so many new things. He has 11 teeth to date. 8 in the front and 3 Molars. At his 12 month check up on Friday, He weighed 24 pound and 14 oz. He is off the charts! He started walking early December, and has a growing vocabulary. The more common words are Ma-Ma, Da-Da, sit, dog, Hi, Zack, was-at (what's that), Del... and a few more I can't recall. He can do so much and it is so fun to watch him learn. He loves to point, clap, do the ba-ba thing with his hand and mouth ( ha ha don't know what to call it), and flip his lips with his finger.

It is so hard to leave to work everyday, but I always look forward to our Fridays together, and Breckan always looks forward to his Lazy Saturdays with Daddy.

Twenty Ten....

Wow.. I have alot of catching up to do, and I promise I will. Let's see.. where to begin?!?! I started a new job. I am the Assistant Manager at Cottonwood Apartments. (A beautiful community, and I LOVE the company). My little man, Breckan, started walking in late December, has been talking for awhile and has 11 teeth, including 2 of his molars. We celebrated his 1st birthday January 28th!

Our family got a new family member, Chica. She is our little "Mutt-i-gree".
Well I think that sums it up... Ha ha. I have tons of pictures to update everyone on what has happened through the months. I will be posting them and any other updates I can think of, throughout the next week.

Boy, Oh Boy!!! I was Huge

WORTH THE WEIGHT!!!

So I recently ran across some of my pregnany pics that were taken as the due date was creeping up. I was pretty shocked to look back and see how HUGE I was. Keep in mind my due date was January 19th, However, I had him January 28th.

This picture is me at work on January 27th... the day before I went into labor.

(In the actual place my labor started... ha ha)

January 17th... two days before I was due.

Jumparoo...

Breckan is growing so fast and is beginning to get very curious. He loves to be sittin up and watching whats going on and also likes to stand. Because of this I have been wanting to get an Exersaucer or walker or anything to help him learn. After spending lots of time on KSL classifieds, we decided to just go to Walmart and buy him something new (can't be too safe with this Flu crap going around). We ended up getting him the Baby Einstein's Music and Lights Jumparoo, and he LOVES it! At first he just like to watch mom play with the frog that twirls and the rings that move up and down, but he has recently discovered the mirror and loves staring at himself. and liks the linking plastic chain rings also. He has started to"bounce" around in it a little and tries to stand frequently. It is so fun to watch him play and learn. He makes the cutest facial expressions while he concentrates.

My First Mother's Day with Breckan!!!

This... My very first Mother's Day as a new mom was an amazing day. Not only did I get to spend the day with my family but I got to feel the love of a Mother on this day. I woke up next to my loving husband and baby boy and started to get ready for breakfast with my Sami, My mom and my grandma. And I can downstairs to my little man with a Mother's day present.. Just for me. My wonderful husband also got me a gift and the most perfect card. He knows me well and knows that although I always want to buy scrapbook books and magazines but will never purchase them... So he did it for me.
