These are jars I made with my sister in law that you can put lights inside and they glow to set by your windows at night....will post a night shot later

So one of my friends got married on St patties day and she loves 4 leaf clovers and anything green so for her birthday I made her this sign to put on her door for the holiday!

1st Trip!

We took Zoie on her first trip to Utah to visit some friends, family, and go shopping. We decided to leave Friday morning at 4:30 am since we can wake Zoie up at 4:00 am and she will go back to sleep until about 9 or 10 that way she would sleep the whole trip. Successful! She did, it was so nice. Nate and I had a nice quite ride and a good talk! We didn't realize how much we missed traveling just for that reason. We stopped at a church parking lot and fed Zoie and let her stretch her legs before putting her back in the car seat to visit some friends and do some shopping. Zoie did very well on the whole trip she slept through all the shopping and when we ate out, Uncle Nick woke up Sunday morning and said "that is the best baby, I thought for sure I would wake up to her crying" Zoie sleeps in her boppy in her cradle so we just brought that along and put it on the couch while we were on a mattress on the floor and she felt right at home...it was great! Our test of how she would do traveling was a good one! (Now for the long Thanksgiving trip to grandpa Fred's in California)

2 Months

Wow I can't believe it has been 2 months already. Nate and I have loved being parents to little Zoie! Everyone says that your lives change sooo much having a baby and adjusting to life with a baby is hard. Maybe I just got lucky because I have the best husband in the world, but it really hasn't been much different. I know its been easy on me because of Nate, he does anything he possibly can to help out at night when he is home and on the weekends. If there is ever a time where he can see that the laundry might be piling up or the dishes need to be done, he is right there doing it. WOW I just can't brag enough about him. Zoie and I are so blessed to have him in our life.

Zoie is such a good baby, it scares me to think about having another one because he/she may not be as easy as Zoie has been. We give her her bath around 9 pm, then I feed her, and we put her in her cradle and she talks for about 20 mins then she falls asleep and at first we had to wake her up at 7 am....that's right 7 AM to feed her. Now she is waking up at 4 am when daddy's alarm goes off, so I feed her while Nate gets ready to go to work, which we are all up anyways, then she goes back to sleep till 10 am...so basically we get to sleep in every morning. Friday- Sunday Nate doesn't work, so no alarm goes off so Zoie sleeps until around 6 or 7 am. SUCH A GOOD BABY!! and did I mention she is the most BEAUTIFUL girl! HAHA....

She is smiling a ton, little giggles here and there (not jokin Steph is my witness) Chey made her giggle, and she is a mama's girl BIG time.Our cousin Jill says shes a good mixture of both of us, and we agree. Its weird, some days she looks sooo much like her dad and then others I feel like I'm looking at my baby pictures. She weighs 8.2 pounds and still big blue eyes! All the babies that were born after her are passing her up in weight like crazy. She is still a tiny little thing. She is a very spitty up baby though, we put on her cute outfit for the day and by the time dad gets home she is back in her plain white onesis. HAHA! We are getting the hang of it though. (LOTS OF BIBS and BURP CLOTHES)

We want to thank everyone who has helped out by watching Zoie here and there so we can run to the grocery store or dr appts. We are thankful for family and all they do!

Hope you all are adjusting to the cold weather and are doing well!

Love US!
Wow does she look like her daddy here!

Blurry smile!
