In our Family of 3

Well were shoul i start. Last Sunday Paityn found her feet, & then on Tuesday her foot found its way to her mouth. We started her today on 6oz. which she still does not htink is enough and throws a little hissy fit. you can def. tell that she is a girl. she is beginning to laugh and laugh and laugh. and getting more and more ticklelish. although today she through her first all day fit. we almost did not go to church because of her outburst and attitude.

I have made a couple more bows and i am selling them for $5.oo and i am also making blankets i am going to vegas on Tuesday to get more material to start those. i will be selling them for around $10.00 i think that is not a set price but that is what i am saying now. I dont have any blankets right now. **i am unable to upload pictures at this time will post them as soon as possible**
Michael as usual has been working really hard to support our little family and is doing a great job. He is taking a little vacation to go spend sometime with his dad brother and cousin. they are going to go snowboarding. Its exciting but at the same time i hate when he leaves. but every one deserves a break once in a while. he sure is loving being a dad and we can not wait for more children.

Craftiness

Well in the last few weeks, i have taught myself to make a little flannel blanket and a couple of head bows that clip on to Paityns headbands. I am so proud i think they turned out great figuring out how to do it by just looking at Charly's *our Niece's* bows. i plan on making a few and selling them. the bows and blankets. So if you are interested let me know. As of right now i am only selling them in Kingman and i will be

posting a few pictures of what i have made. Yesterday my sister in-law Caitlin came over and we pretty much scrapbooked all day. we only got a few pages. It is so nice having a cricut that cuts out all the shapes that i want. It is so fun making page of the exciting things that Paityn is doing. While we Scrapbooked we put Tanner* my Nephew* in a playpen and Paityn in her Bouncer they sat there and talked and laughed it was so cute and of course as soon as we got the video camera out they stopped. and then they took a 3 hour nap and we enjoyed spending the time just hanging out and talking. we have been family for 3 years i believe and we haven't really spent any time together getting to know each other. Well that's all i believe and if i remember anything else i will blog about it tomorrow.

This last weekend Michael had the pleasure of going juavalina hunting with my dad and brother their first day out Michael and my dad both got their pig by 11:00A.M. They got home and skinned them we are going over tomorrow to cut and dice them. Im so excitied to have juavalina and im so proud of Michael It was his first pig hunt and first hunt using a bow and arrow.n~Michael also got 2 Quail. They are planning on putting in for elk so hopefully they get drawn.
We were planning on taking Paityn hunting but since it was quit windy and they werent camoing over night she will have to wait for here first hunt.
Hopefully there will be plenty more hunting stories to come.

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.
