He liked the balloons more then anything else, His lovely mark on his face from falling down the stairs the day before.


He loved the cake




This is now my favorite picture EVER! I love my two kids! They are such a joy.

Happy Birthday!

My little guy is 1 today! I can't believe it! Where has the time gone? I am so happy to have this little guy here and to have him in our family. Even though he is HUGE and giving major shoulder and back pain from holding him all the time. i still love him, I just hope he walks very soon so I can get my shoulder back and move my arm a little bit more then what i can move it right now. Here is a couple pictures of my little guy!

This is a picture of him when he was about a month old

November has come and gone..

Well November is over and again I can't believe it! The time has gone too fast and I don't know how to make it slow down! In November we haven't taken too many pictures we have been busy but at the same time done nothing, Jonny finally has learned how to crawl this month and is getting mobile! YAY!! I am so excited and he is alot happier with himself also! We also had our Hirst family party where Santa came to visit us. That was alot of fun but this year Anastasia was scared of him and Jonny just didn't care.. I am sure next year it might be flipped the other way. Also this week have had some dear friends from Sweden come to visit. They are members that Mark got to know on his mission and then when we went back there about 2 1/2 years ago I got to meet them! They are a very sweet family and we are having fun spending time with them. Here are some pictures that I did take this month...



I love her sad face... she didn't want anything to do with Santa.. it is was really funny
He is such a stud
the whole family, it was quite the party!
Santa told us a great story!

I am so proud of myself.. i made this!

Here are the few pictures that I did take.. I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas season!

October Fun.

We have had a very long and very eventful month. The past week has been very fun. Anastasia turned 2 and it was so fun to celebrate her birthday today! I can't believe how fast time flew. Also this past week our dear sweet grandmother passed away. She had cancer and it finally took her life. We are so grateful that she is out of her pain and her misery and back home with her son that died when he was a baby and her other son that died when he was on his mission! It is very bitter sweet. We will miss her a lot and always have her in our minds and her wonderful example to live by! So anyway here a couple of pictures of what we have been up to this month! Hope everyone else is doing well and everything is going well for all of you!

Here are the kids in there costumes. She was minnie and he was a monkey.
