Our New Baby!

After 9 months of pregnancy our baby finally came. She was born Thursday morning (3a.m.) on September 9th. She weighed 7 pounds 14 oz and was 18.5 inches long. She was a very healthy baby. We only had to stay in the hospital about a day and a half and came home Saturday afternoon. She has been with us about 2 months now and has been lots of fun. Hopefully we will do a better job updating out blog, we have said that before so we'll see.

Where it all happened.


Maylee is already worried about her weight.


Kiley's family came down from Logan to see Maylee.

Latest Updates On Our Adventures!

Okay I am really bad at keeping up this blogging thing! However I am here today per Heidi and Hollys requests at updating my blog :) haha
So Steve is in school at the University of Utah studying Physical Therapy. He started in May and has almost finished his first summer semester and he loves it! I am working as a Receptionist at Alpine Medical (pediatric and ob/gyn clinic)and this weekend I am taking a class to become a class fitness instructor for aerobics, water aerobics etc! I am really excited and think it will be a lot of fun!
So I know our second anniversary was a while ago but here are some pictures of what we did. We decided to go to Moab for a few days because neither of us had been there and have heard a lot of good things about it!

This is our campground! It was great because it rained at night but was sunny during the days. Our campground had a tin roof covering for our tent which worked out nicely since we didnt know how well our cheap tent would hold up in the rain.






One of the days we went hiking in the Arches, It was way cool cause these are things you see on tv and we saw them in real life! It was a lot of fun hiking all day to see some of these.


Then the next day we went Mountain Biking, I think this place was called Slickrock. It was a lot of fun, there were some scary parts where the edge of the mountain just drops but overall it was great!




It was a Very fun weekend, If you havent ever been there go! We want to go again this fall or next spring, so let us know if you all wanna plan a trip and come with!

I Know I Know Im Bad At Blogging!

Its been forever I know Im not very good at this, Well plus there is not much going on to blog about. So Steve got into school at the U and starts in May. I quit my job at Advanced foot and Ankle and got a new job a couple days later at Alpine Medical. Its a lot of fun there, their are 3 ob/gyn's and a midwife and like 6 ped dr.'s. Its nice because its really close to where we are living, which is now in the University Student housing. It is a very small apt but I am really enjoying it so far and their are a lot of really nice people in our ward. The first pictures are of my graduation, I had to wear that stupid gown and hat thing. A little while after I finished school Steve and I went to cedar and had fun staying the weekend with Heidi, Shawn and Carson, then we went to Saint George to visit his grandparents and Dustin and his family. These are pictures of us hiking to a stupid volcano and then we walked up by the Dixie on the red rocks. Yep thats about it for now!

Christmas!

So this year for Christmas we decided to go snowboarding instead of give each other gifts. It was a lot of fun, we went on Christmas Eve from when it opened at 9:00 till about 1:00 when we went to my parents house in Logan.








Steve got a way cool tie with bikes on it and a cool video mp3 player








My favorite present was a pea coat! I also got a cute necklace and a web cam! I am expecially excited about the web cam because i have wanted one for a while and now i can see my family all the time and talk to our nephew Carson!




So the big hits at my house were the fooseball table and the Wii. With the wii we got 2 games, Mariocart racing and American Idol. It was a lot of fun! Christmas day we just played with all of the new things and had family over for dinner.
Friday afternoon we left and went straight to Leatherby's to meet Shawn, Carson, Heidi, and Jaclyne to eat some ice cream. Then after we went to steves and opened presents. I got a cute jacket and a lid for cookie sheets, and steve got a new dress coat. The best present was the news we got from Heidi and Shawn that we are going to get a new little Neice or Nephew!
Then to ruin the whole week I had school on saturday.

We Are SoOoO Excited For Christmas!

HALLOWEEN

We were pretty excited for this years Halloween. Last year we lived in a crapy basement apartment with the entrance in the back, a place nobody would come for candy. But this year we lived in a nice neighborhood, on the main level of a house and we were ready to see some trick or treaters and hand out candy! Steve went to the store to get some candy for the trick or treaters. While he was there he was contemplating on getting cheap suckers but felt bad giving out stupid candy to the kids, so after much thought he ended up spending three times as much on some minnie candy bars, but he knew the kids would love it. We were all ready. We put the candy in a bowel and started waiting for the trick or treaters. While waiting we played some nintendo, I discovered that Steve is was way better than me at Mario Cart. He even beat me using Princess! Anyways, 3 hours later, a couple T.V. shows and steve cutting his hair only 2 trick or treaters came! Steve was pissed! He bought all that candy for nothing.

I was just happy that we had tons of candy to ourselves and quickly convinced Steve of that, he became happy.

Later we left and went to Leatherby's with Shawn, Heidi, Carson and Steve's parents. That was a lot of fun and helped to smooth over our night of NOT handing out any candy!

And that was our Halloween.
