New Year

A lot has happen since i have been able to blog. I just was able to finish my post about Paityns Blessing, and that was back in November and the last blog before that was Halloween time.

We were able to spend time with Michaels family for Christmas and that was neat to be able to have Christmas with them. They have a lot of cool traditions. Its so nice to have another family to spend the holidays with and see how other people celebrate Christ birth.
This was the first Christmas that Michael has spent with his family since he left for his mission, And Paityn and i were able to share that with him.
For New Years we went to Pheniox to spend it with Michaels sisters and the whole family made it. We played this murder mystery game. It was fun, but a little challinging. Having never played a murder mystery game, It turns out that i was the Murderer and its something that would be fun to play again, knowing now how to play and next time Michael and i decided that next time we are really gonna dress up and get more into charecter.
This weekend Michael get to go PIG hunting with my Dad and Brother. i hope he gets something but more importantly i hope that he has fun, and enjoys the time with them.

Now News About Paityn
The day before Thanksgiving Paityn did her first real laugh. She is getting bigger and bigger every day. Its so cute to see her react when she see's or hears her dad come home from work or when i pick her up after i am done with work. it is crazy that she is already 3 1/2 months already. I love her so much. Paityn is such a happy baby. She diffently is going to be a talker when she gets older she is constanty making noises. She had her first Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year (along with a little party to bring in the New Year)
Well that all for now I Promise to try and be better about posting updates.
***I will post pictures soon i left my camera in Pheniox and i have to wait to get it back, but as soon as i get it back i will post pictures, there are some cute ones of Paityn Celebrating New Years.***

Blessing Day

Well sorry it has taken so long to write about Paityns special day. Paityn was blessed on November 30th, 2008 and almost the whole family was able to come, the only family not able to come was Michaels sister Zoe and her family.
Michael did such a great job blessing Paityn. Its such a great Blessing to be able to have a husband who has the great blessing of being able to bless our children. A lot was said and she was blessed with a lot of neat things to come. She is very loved.
Paityn was so cute in her little gown. It was neat to be able to put Paityn in the same gown that i was blessed in when i was a baby.
Im so proud of being a mother and i love every mintue of it i couldnt ask for a beter child. I can not wait til we have our other children and get to have them blessed. It is such a neat experiance.
Well thats alli have about her blessing day.

Paityn's First Halloween

Paityns first Halloween was adventures. We took her pictures the day before so it was to much for her on Halloween going around seeing family. Our little Kitty was done quit fast but she seemed to enjoy it. Its hard to believe that she is 5 weeks old. We have had so much fun with our little one. we knew she would bring us joy but who could ever emagine this much joy brought by one little child. Starting this last monday she has started to really start smiling all the time i love how happy he seems to be. we love being with her but we hate to share her. thats all for now i Start work again in a week im excitied but not its gonna be hard to leave her.

The last Month

Our little family
The last 3 weeks have gone by so fast they seem. Paityn is growing bigger and bigger and is such a great baby. the other night she sleep 7 hrs. and i had to wake her up to feed her. Today she had her first real bath and loved it. She is making the cutest little noises and smiles like crazy. We sure do love her so so much.

Tomorrow we get to go to Flagstaff, and wake up way early on Tues. and sit in the hospital while Dad Merritt gets a very serious back surgery. Its a very serious and stressful thing to think about but we want to be there and support him in this serious thing. But on the plus side we get to see my grandma and Aunt. They are coming down to also support my dad. We have been spending what seems like a lot more time with both of our family's.

Well that's about all the time i have to update sorry that there isn't anything else to tell you about maybe as Paityn gets older there will be a Little more to tell you about.

Our family update

Our family
We went to the Doctor on Wednesday, and everything looks good. We go back at 10:30 A.M. On the 16th and there we see how close we are to having Paityn in our arms. We can not wait. Michael is so excited to have a little girl,its funny to talk with him about his little girl being here and how excited you can tell he is. We had our baby shower on 9th of August. Thanks to our friend Ashley who threw it for us it was a great baby shower we got a lot of clothes, diapers, and homemade blankets. and much more. its nice to know we have friends and family that are there for us with support in this time of our life's. Well now we both have a lot to be thankful for. at the beginning of Aug. Michael his brother and his dad went out early in the morning to workout. When they went to ride their bikes like normal routine one of the bikes had a flat tire, so boys being boys came up with the plan to just take 2 bikes and the 3rd person could just take the dirt bike and they would just take turns riding the pedal bikes. well when it became Lunds (Michael's Dad) turn and they were on their way back. Lund had a freak accident. he went in to a Walsh like thing and when he came out on the other side there was a ditch and he ended up flying over the handle bars. He could breath but wouldn't go to the hospital. Thomas took him home and Kathy (Michael's Mom) talked Lund into going into the Hospital. when they got there they found out that he had broken some ribs, had a collapsed lung and a ruptured spleen and was rushed into surgery. Lund pulled through and is doing great. So thank you to all who had him in your prayers.. so on to a brighter note. We have chosen to stay in our house/Kingman for another year. Congratulations to our cousin Kacey and her Husband Gregg on the birth of their little girl. we cant wait to see her. well that's all i can think of for now til next time hope every one is well. love to all
