Family wedding dinner

To celebrate my sister's upcoming wedding, we all got together with his fam and ours to celebrate and get to know them. It was a lot of fun, and we had a 3 course meal served by none other than our wonderful Aunt Karen. It was a nice evening.

Chatting....and my little kylee girl with uncle dave :)
My little princess kylee and me. She doesn't usually sit and cuddle when she's tired. She usually arches her back and screams to be left alone in her crib. Yesterday, however, she cuddled up with me and her binki and fell right asleep. I was talking with cousins and she was watching me the whole time and then fell asleep in my arms. I'll admit that it brought a little tear to my eye because it was just one of those sweet moments that mother's get with their little babies. I love that girl so much!!! Isn't she getting so big!?????
And this sideways picture is one I took today. How do you like the bow??? Well, I made it!!!!! Yes, I got out the ribbon and glue gun and got crafty. Crazy I know, but I was pretty proud of myself. I wish I knew how to edit pictures on a mac so that i could turn it, but this will have to do for now. I think she is just the cutest 5 1/2 month old in town! 

Now that I have a little more time...I'll explain our plans of moving down unda. We are moving June 25th (I think I already mentioned that) and Jeremy is going to finish school in Australia. They have great schools there for engineering in the biomedical field and he was going to transfer somewhere next semester anyway and we decided Australia is the best place. Why??? you might ask. Well, why not? we say!!!!!!!!! It will be an exciting adventure for us and we look at this as a great opportunity to get out of Utah (USA for that matter) and see what else is out there! We will also have the pleasure of being closer to my mom and bill and sis (which is another major factor in choosing to move countries!!!!) We are very excited and hope to be able to see everyone before we go. The hardest part will be leaving all of our friends and family that we love so much!!!!!! 

DRUMROLL please!!!!!!!!!!

We have some news for everyone!!!!! Jeremy and I are moving in June to AUSTRALIA!!!!!!!! We are selling most of our stuff and bringing everything else and we leave on the 25th of June. Jeremy is going to finish school there and we'll be there for atleast 4 years. I will miss sooo many people and I would love to see everyone before I go, so please call me when you're free!!!!!! 

Also, for family members....My sister Megan is getting married on the 27th of March and isn't sending invitations out, so consider this your invite and please come if you can. I'm not going to give when and where online so if you want to know more call me!!!!

LATELY.....

Me and my girl.

Well this is just gross. I woke up to THIS this morning. What is it you might ask? Friendship bread batter. I am so sad that this bag popped because this friendship bread is so good. For those who don't know what friendship bread is I'll explain. you can't just make this bread...the "starter" is given to you by a friend and you keep it for 10 days (afterwhich is has fermented on your counter) then you seperate the batter and give a cup of it to 3 friends and then make your bread with what's left over. I made this starter for myself and didn't have a gallon size ziploc, so i used a quart....and this is what happened. It blew up because it had too much pressure inside that bag. Well, I've probably confused a lot of people, but oh well. SO if anyone has friendship bread and wants to give me a starter....then i'm in want of one. thanks.

My sis and her kids came up to ol ogden and spent the night with us. We had a lot of fun and the kids and megan all got to camp out on the hide-a-bed.

cute little family!

And this is my little girl growing up! She has also mastered rolling from the back to the front. She gets stuck there however and gets really frustrated and just screams for me to roll her back. In the meantine, she just sucks her fingers and usually ends up gagging herself and throws up. I think that's usually when she starts screaming because who wants to be stuck playing with spitup? not me and apparently not kylee girl. Well, things are moving right along for us and we're doing just great. I hope all is well with everyone out there! does anyone want to but a chicco travel system from us? if you do, call me

Look what I can do!

frozen food and other "stuff"

Well, I'm getting to be a lazy blogger, but i'm blogging none the less! I have a question for all those who read my blog. How do you cook a "frozened" meal without the sogginess? I made enchiladas and put them in my freezer and I cooked them the other night. I was really excited and quite proud that I had dinner "ready" and even put place mats on the table to make it a big deal. well, needless to say....the enchiladas were soggy and i was nauseous the rest of the night. What did i do wrong?!!!!! HELP ME! i'm not very domestic! 

Next item. Who took my perfect daughter who sleeps through the night and takes long naps all day long? I'm missing her very much and would like her back! In the meantime, i'm working with this stranger who i call Kylee to teach her that she can't wake up 3 times in the night demanding to be fed, or threatening to cry for hours at a time if she doesn't get it! It's going to be a long week! oh wait, it already has  been: bring on week two of getting to know this stranger whom i love and adore.
