Merry Christmas!

I would first like to say how much I LOVE the holidays and being with the family and I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! Here's a little update on what we've been up too!
For thanksgiving we went down to our beloved STG! It was warm and sunny and familiar and we loved it! We had a hard time coming back but while we were down there we had our own little photo shoot, which was very needed with the recent events. So this will be our first family photo in about 7-8 years! It wasnt everyone but we had me, Jake, and Zoe and then my family and the only family left on my dads immediate side. My aunt Randi, Cousin Lexi, and Cousin Lily. (and look how color coordinated we are!)



The blooper picture, haha no one was ready.


First picture of my gorgeous parents since they got re-married :)


Me and my Jakey!


We never had engagement photos, so i tried to make some


Our precious Zoe Rose! We couldnt get her to smile though cause the grass was cold and she did not like it




Kelsi.Kailee.Karson


Sisters and Friends Forever!


Our little family. Except the sun was so bright and right in our eyes! We all looked retarted trying to smile and open our eyes!


The Loui family, with of course my newer additions.


After our photoshoot we went to my Aunt Lynns for Thanksgiving! It was so awesome to see everyone and of course....we had to play on the tramp!

We were trying to look like the end of High School Musical 3


Updates on Zoe! She can now crawl!! She doesnt do it all the time yet cause she gets lazy but she can also go from laying on her stomach to sitting all by herself! I'll have to get it on video but we have also added Gerber 1st foods into her diet and she loves it! Right when we get her into her high chair she starts opening her mouth haha AND the biggest, bestest news of all! she is sleeping through the night, the whole night, in her own room, in her own crib, and she doesnt cry when we put her down anymore.......I absolutely love it! and we love her!!


She has a foot fedish......?? She loves to suck on her toes!?


After a feeding of sweet potatoes.
No matter how hard I try to keep her clean, I always fail....
But its cute so whatever.


She was really whiney one night and we were trying to get stuff done, so jake decided to give her his vibrating toothbrush and its her new favorite toy haha


She gets excited when we put her in her highchair!


Shes big enough now that we put her in the front seat of the shopping cart and we were debating over some food to get and we turn around and she was out! haha SO FUNNY!



My happy little angel :)


And its so freaking cold up here that this happens every morning........
I miss the heat under my bare feet on the side walk and the sun warming my face and just everything about St. George. I'm going through withdrawels.........aaahh!
Look at all the snow!

But there has been a good thing living up here! We made friends with some awesome people! I tend there cute little 18 month old daughter Kaija during the week, and Kari and Ty (her parents) are way fun to hang out with and are like our only friends up here! There so awesome that for my and jakes 1st year anniversary we went and saw New Moon with them! haha lots of fun! Heres a picture i took of Kaija, :D what a cutie!


Haha


Also we got a little kitty!! This little guys name is Toby......dont ask me why. Jake had an epiphany i guess. But it took him a couple days to get over kodak but now he thinks he's a dog too and follows Kodak everywhere. and us. yay.

And Zoe thinks his cat food is yummy......... :/

And this would be Kodak, being jealous of Zoe, and trying to lay under her high chair while we were feeding her lol poor little guy


And this would be Zoe playing under her walker, I dont know what the fascination is but everytime we put her down. She crawls straight into it


Zoe in a little Christmas outfit, at the neighbors house!



And then there is Zoe's obsession with drinks. She knows what they are and when we have a drink with a straw in it, she will cry until we let her hold it! We usually have to replace it with water cause we learned our lesson of how much sugar is in soda, and how late it makes them stay up :)

Hope you enjoyed! Cant wait to see the family again for christmas and we wish everyone Happy Holidays!!!
