I have a new niece!!


My older brother Matt and his wife Ashlee had their first baby, a little girl, on Saturday at 4:30 am. She was 10 days late poor girl!! The baby girl came in at 9lbs 4ounces and 21 inches long. She hasn't been named yet but I am so excited that she is here!!

Madeline's new song

Yes No E I E I O.

She has started to sing to me all the time. It is so cute. Two days ago she started singing me "yes no e i e i o". We sing her the old mcdonald song so I know where she got the "e i e i o" from, but to put it together with the "yes no" part I have no idea, and it rhymes.

I think I have a little poet on my hands!! Every time I try to record it she won't do it....of course!

Moab, 18 months, Moving, and Etc...

So we went to Moab for Skipper's family reunion and it was fun. I have to say that my favorite part was playing games with the adults after the kids had gone to bed. Skipper and I haven't been able to do that in so long with his work, and school schedule. I think that Sunny, and Shilo will have to agree that Mafia was the best part.The only bad part is that the day we got home Madeline got sick with a stomach virus and wouldn't eat anything for 4 days and then hardly ate anything for about another 4 days. I had her 18 month appointment during this time and she always has been a small girl but she was less than the 5% for her age in her weight. Her Dr. reassured me that with stomach virus's babies can drop 1-2 pounds easily. Here are her stats:

Height: 32 inches 50%-75%
Weight: 19 lbs. 12 ounces
I can't remember her head circum. but she was in the 50%

Her appetite is back and her pants are fitting better so I think we are on our way.

I am happy to say that Skipper is graduated and he got another 4.0 his last semester. Who knew that he had it in him? He has been interviewing with a company in SLC for about a month and he got the call in Moab that he got the job. So we got home from Moab, and between the sick baby and packing (we had to move in a week!!) we weren't able to say goodbye everyone. We aren't very far away so hopefully we will get to see all our friends soon!!

The disk that has my pictures on it is packed somewhere so I will post those soon!!
