Temple Square

So this last week we went to temple square to look at the lights. I love this time of year! There is no better place to go to get in the Christmas spirit. We didn't stay to long since it was really cold but Andie loved looking at the lights. Well we hope that everyone has a Merry Christmas!

5 Months!

So Andie is over 5 months now and is getting bigger all the time. She is really starting to get a personality which I love most of the time. Her first tooth broke through the other day and I feel so bad for her but overall she has handled it very well and is still a good and happy baby.
Andie has started sitting up on her own but only for short periods of time, but she is doing really well. Also she loves to eat cereal so much I thought I would try some other foods just to see how she would do. I know that she is still pretty young but she loves to eat. I started her on green beans and she LOVED them! I was surprised because I didnt think they tasted very good at all.

Our Trip Home

So this last weekend we went home to Idaho to visit friends and family. It was nice to go home and relax and spend time together since Adam isnt around much. He is still working full time and is going to school full time and especially since finals are coming up he hasnt been around much so it was a much needed break. The weekend started with my dad taking Adam and his friends on a mountain bike ride.Then we went over to our friends house to hang out for a while since it has been so long. This is Andie's little boyfriend Taiton. It was time for them to go to bed for the night so we thought we would see what they would do if we put them together. They are so cute!(Also Happy Birthday in a few days Taiton. I cant believe your already 1!)
And to my friends Charish, Holly and Stephanie, I really miss you guys! It is always good to get together when I come to town. I just wish that we werent so far away. I am glad we keep in touch though and have stayed such good friends. I love you guys!!!

It was a great trip but it was nice to come home. As you can see we were a little worn out from a busy weekend but it was really nice to come home.

Big Daddy Titus!

Yes thats right, the puppies are here! They were born on Saturday November 29 and Maggie did amazing. French Bulldogs usually have to have c-sections because they are smaller and most of them cant handle it. We had her scheduled for a c-section that next Monday but she went into labor before that. She didnt even make a sound and just went in a laid down in here bed and started having her puppies. It was pretty amazing to watch and we are so proud of her for doing it naturally. We had four puppies, 2 girls and 2 boys and 2 are brindle and 2 are white so we ended up with one of each. It was perfect! Here is Titus the proud papa.


This is the little white girl and she is my favorite. She is the smallest one and I just love her.This is Adams favorite one, the brindle boy and the craziest one of them all.They are always climbing all over each other and cuddling. I am going to be so sad when we sell them!Here is Maggie taking care of her babies. She is such a good Mom and never wants to leave them.

4 Month Check-Up

So last week we took Andie in for her 4 Month Check to see how she was doing and also to get her immunization shots. She is slowly starting to drop on the charts but that is no surprise with as small as her parents are. At four months she is 23 1/2 inches long and weighs 12lbs. 6 oz. which puts her at about the 20th percentile over all. I am not complaining though, I love her being so little and small and I know it wont last long enough. Also she has been starting to get hungry a lot more lately so we decided to start her on some solid food. We have been feeding her rice cereal and she absolutely loves it! Here are a few picture of her eating, she gets so excited when she gets to eat and yes, the last picture is of her spitting. She does this all the time now and she thinks she is so funny!

Family!

So last weekend we went to visit Adam's grandparents. It was the first time that Andie had ever met them. Andie loved her great-grandma and sat there and smiled at her the whole time we were there. Also while we were there we went with Adam's parents, grandpa and aunt to the BYU basketball game. It was really good to see and spend time with family.

First Halloween!

Well our Halloween wasnt very exciting this year but we still had a good time. Here are a few pictures of Andie all dressed up. We dressed her up as a ballerina and I think she looked so cute!

We are expecting!

Well our dog Titus is going to be a dad. We got him and his girlfriend Maggie together a few weeks ago and the rest is history. We are so excited!! The puppies are going to be due the first week in December. Maggie went in for an ultrasound and the vet found at least three puppies with a possibility of more. So if you know anyone that would want an amazing french bulldog like Titus just let us know.

Look at what a cute puppy he was. Who wouldn't want one of these. I cant wait to see what the puppies will look like.

Our First Family Photos

Last week we had our friend Lisa take some photos of our little family down in Provo and she did an amazing job! So I thought we should share some of our favorites with you. Here you go...enjoy!

Isn't she the most adorable thing ever!!!Striking a poseShe was so happy the whole time!Burt doesn't like this one but too bad...I do.

Absolutely the best one of them all. I love it! It's okay for you to admit our baby is cuter than yours.

Okay so I'm posting a ton of photos this time...sorry for some of you who like words rather than pictures but I couldn't narrow it down to just a couple photos that I liked best. So deal with it, and for you who are blog-stalking and only come to see the latest photos you must be in heaven...

We couldn't help not putting her in her one-piecer, its just too cute.

You know we couldn't leave our little boy dog out of the family photo session!

Okay so that's finally the end of them. Well we hope you enjoyed them, we know that we do...I've been sending and showing almost everyone who will let me. Mostly because our baby is adorable, we're merely filling in the scene. Thanks again to Lisa.

Three Months!

I cant believe that it has already been three months since we welcomed Andie into our family. It still doesn't seem realistic sometimes that we have a baby. We are loving every minute of it. She is growing so much and is becoming so much more aware all the time. The only thing that I can complain about is that the last few weeks she has really started sucking her thumb and I dont know how to get her to stop. At least with a pacifier you can take it away but she wont take one...she never has, all she wants is her thumb! If anyone has any suggestions how to get her to stop before it really becomes a habit I am all ears.

Oh and also we had our friend Lisa take some family pictures the other day so as soon as I get them uploaded I will post some of our favorites! They turned out awesome!!!

Our Dallas Trip

So this last weekend was our long anticipated Dallas trip and let me tell you it was a blast! We spent 4 days from Friday to Monday doing any and everything, from threading eyebrows to 10 hour shopping marathons to fondue mayhem. Here is a photo recap of our adventures. Enjoy!

Our plane ride out to Dallas... I was excited.
Did Someone Blink?

Waiting to be seated at some D-lish Tex Mex restaurant.

Eatin some fajitas...

Chey giving the "I'm too full Signal"
And the more understood "I'm too full signal" (yeah that's what you think it is)

Let the Threading begin!...Chey pretty much cried.

And the results... (at the Galleria)

After the Shop-A-Thon we went to Salt Grass....here is Chey and I trying to outdo each others lime amount.

Group Photo! Look at Chey, she caught him mid-burp in the photo! Haha.

Game Day!
Um, thank you Lisa for giving my wife a cowboys jersey, even further singling me out!
A few game time shots.
Terrell Owens, Jerry Jones and Ocho Cinco photo opp!

Chad and Terrell, probably talking smack (or about to kiss)

Chad and T.J.

We had so much fun at the game...and we got to share it with our best friends!

Defeated...

After the game we went and ate at Simply Fondue and it was incredible, and things got a little out of hand...
No, he's not going to kill you...he just spit ice at Britt...that's all.
So I dropped the lens cap to Lisa's camera under the table and I was helpless so they decided to smear chocolate on my face.

As you can see we had a lot of fun this past weekend in Dallas, it was nice to get away and relax (well not really relax). Spending time with each other and the Thatchers was great I just wish we didn't have to come home and get back to work and school. Thanks Chey and Lisa for making this weekend the funnest we've had...EVER! You guys rock! BFFFL!
