"Above all else, children need to know and feel they are loved, wanted, and appreciated. They need to be assured of that often. Obviously, this is a role parents should fill, and most often the mother can do it best." ~Ezra Taft Benson

CONGRATULATIONS!!

We have a new baby boy in the family! My aunt Sarah had her little boy yesterday at 6:03 pm.

Logan William Rice: Born at 6:03 pm on March 28, 2009 he is 6 lbs 10 oz and 20 1/2 inches long. He has the longest toes I have ever seen on a brand new baby and a TON of hair! He is so dang adorable! We were unable to be at the hospital with Sarah due to Mercedes' Junior prom :( But we went up today and held and played with him. His big sister Sage was so dang excited when she got to see him for the first time *I have it on video*! We asked her if her "baby elephant" had come out of her belly yet and she said "nope it's not time yet" then asked if her mom could put baby Logan back in her belly and make him come out again... LOL it was too cute. Anyways I will have pictures soon of the new baby, Mercedes' prom and Myranda's modesty prom! Hope all is well with all!

Our computer is broken :(

Wanted to let everyone know that I will have some pictures posted as soon as our computer is up and running again. I am having to use my parents computer to do everything on but I can't upload my photos :(

Wanted everyone to know that Kirk has completed his CDL training and offically has his CDL!! WOOT WOOT! Maybe now we can find a job and get back on our feet! Maybe our own place again in the near future.

I am looking into going back to hair school. YAY! However I have to write a letter to the board of cosmotology to ask them to reinstate my hours where it has been over 5 years. :( Wish me luck on that!

Kayden is growing like a weed! 19 lbs as of yesterday! We had to take him to the doctor again for being sick... but hopefully this will be the last time for a little while.

PARK DAY!~

I will start of by saying.... WE KNOW... WE ARE REALLY MEAN! (Watch the slide.) But we couldn't resist!

ANYWHO~It was really nice today so Myranda and I took Kayden to the park for a little while and out for a much needed walk. :) He loves to go go go! Hope everyone else is having as beautiful of weather as we are!

Peek-a-boo!

Kayden and I were playing today and I just wanted to share....

Thursday, March 5, 2009

It has been a while since I have updated the blog so I figured I should do my "duty" and update. LOL

~Kayden is crawling EVERYWHERE! I still can't believe it! He has also discovered that he can pull himself up to EVERYTHING! He has had tons and tons of head bonks on the floor from letting himself go once he is on his feet. He has also discovered that he can walk along things... He is still a little wobblie but he is getting the hang of it :)

He has 2 teeth already! The pics below are from a week or so ago. You can see them better now! :) He is eating more and more solid foods AND LOVING THEM! His favorite thing are his graham crackers! His other new favorite thing is his stroller. Kirk and I have been walking everyday at least once if not twice and Kayden LOVES to go! He gets pretty excited when we put him in it.

Kirk started his CDL school today and he was really excited about that. It is a 4 week course and they help you find a truck driving job (local or long haul). Where Kirk loves to drive it will be a GREAT career for him! As for me I am doing good! Enjoying being a mommy and still looking for that job! I'm sure something will come along soon. Loves to all!
