kate update

well its been a little while since I posted some Kate pictures so I thought I would share.

One of our new favorite things to do is visit the library and Kate gets to choose some of her favorite books!

She has also learned a cheesy new smile that she now demonstrates for the camera every chance she gets!

2 year anniversary!!!

This last tuesday Chad and I celebrated our second anniversary! Time flies! It seems like it was just yesterday that we were married and now its been two years! I am so lucky to have such a sweet husband and a beautiful baby!

But now i'll tell you a little about the day (November 11th). The night before I realized that I hadn't really gotten anything for Chad for our anniversary, so I packed up Kate at 10pm and trekked over to our neighborhood wal-mart. I made my way back to the electronics dept to find a movie or something... and then my curiosity got the best of me and I asked the sales manager if they would be getting any wii's in soon. Much to my delight he showed me over to the case of newly delivered wii's. I am very weak when it comes to shopping and I decided that would be a great present for Chad (and when he decided that it was too expensive then we could just return it and I would look like a good little wife). Ha ha. Well at 2:30am Chad came home from work because he forgot his dinner and I proceeded to tell him that I had a really cool present for him, and being weak once again I gave it to him. Need less to say he had a really hard time leaving to go back to work.

Early the next morning I headed off to school (before Chad was even home from work). I took my test and all kinds of fun stuff! After I was done with school I met up with Chad at his familys home and he suprised me with a cute homemade card and a lovely bunch of roses :)

We then went to the Melting Pot in Salt Lake for dinner (if you haven't tried this place you need to go, it is so much fun!). We both ate so much food that we had a hard time walking back to the car, ha ha. But it was so good! Once we picked up Kate we made another stop by wal-mart because Chad insisted on getting some new games for his wii, and we stayed up until 1am playing mario party, ha ha. It was a really fun day, and I am looking forward to one more year with my sweet hubby!

Family Pictures!

We recently had our family pictures and Kates one year picutures taken and I am so excited that they turned out so cute that I have to share!

I need help choosing which ones to have enlarged, so let me know your favorites! Thanks!

happy days!

Well I have finally turned 22! I know, I know, I am so young to be married and have a baby, I have heard it before. I have come to the conclusion that birthdays are not all they are cracked up to be. I went to school and took three tests, then came home and took care of Kate, but the good news is that I did get to go to my favorite restaurant (Outback) with some of my favorite people (my family). It turned out to be a good day after all.

and Chad surprised me with a new camera so I can post even more pictures on our blog!

Happy Halloween! Kate dressed up as a beautiful fairy this year and made her trick-or-treating rounds with aunt Anna and Camille.
We also took her trick-or-treating down center street into some of the little shops, on the way Kate and Chad stopped to shake some leaves off the tree, and Kate loved it! Unfortunately we learned not to give babies lots of candy, later in the evening Kate threw up all over someones driveway, and me, and her costume! Yuck
Here are the pretty fairy princesses dancing in the street!
Last weekend as a final celebration of Halloween and my birthday Chad and I and some friends went to lagoon, it was a blast (except for the part when chad dragged me through the haunted house, ha ha)
