Oh my heck! Hallee is getting soo big.  She's 3 months but yet it seems like she's always been here but at the same time it feels like I was just in the hospital.  Time flies by so fast but yet the days can be long.  Hallee has really bad allergies so I have to keep her inside with the air conditioning.  If she's outside her allergies act up really bad and she has trouble breathing and miserable.  She's also what I believe to be colic.  She cries a lot but it definetley teaches me patience between a baby that cries all the time and chasing a very active 2 year old.  But it's a lot of fun.  I love every stage kids have so far because there a lot of fun in there own way BUT can my babies just stay little?!?




 Jaedyn wanted to bring her baby doll stroller down stairs and I thought it would be cute if I put Hallee in the the stroller.  She literally looked like a baby doll.  Jaedyn started pushing her around.  Made me a bit nervous but she was super careful!  She's in 2 different outfits because she loved it.  Hallee is a people watcher and loves to sit up but she's WAY to chunky to hold herself up and still too little so we put her in there and she's happy.  

Doesn't she look like a baby doll?!?!








So when Jaedyn was born I made a tradition.  When my girls turn 6 weeks old we celebrate by getting their ears pierced!  Well, Hallee turned 6 weeks and we did it!  She got her ears pierced!  I know there's controversy with babies getting their ears pierced.  For example::

My dad says you didn't give her the choice to get her ears pierced and I have 2 responses to that.
1-Do you ask boys if they want to be circumcised because they could always get that done when they're older because they could make that decision of being circumcised or not which kinda leads to response number 2
2-What boy doesn't want to be circumcise just like... What girl doesn't want their ears pierced.  The ones that don't have it done want them but are too scared to do it.

Another controversial thing I've come across is
1-People at church get frustrated when they see my girls with pierced ears. Because their daughters want their ears pierced and the parents tell them they are too young and when their girls see my girls have them they begin to wonder because my girls are much younger.

So when I was 5 years old I wanted my ears pierced soo bad and I still remember going to go get them done in the mall and I have no pain tolerance whatsoever.  And I remember screaming so loud that probably everybody in the mall heard me.  Well, I didn't let my mom clean my ears.  I remember my mom having to pin me down to just clean them and twist them so they wouldn't get infected.  Well guess what?!  
My ears got infected and my mom got tired of  always fighting me to clean my ears, so she took them out and my ears were no longer pierced.  When I turned 13, I wanted my ears pierced again and I got them done and I did take care of them and I still have them.  But the reason I'm saying this story is because....Because I got my girls ears pierced at 6 weeks old and I took care of them during the healing period and I still do...They have no idea at all that they are even there and I will never have to fight them with it. And when they get older we can change them out.  

They cry for a maximum of 15 seconds...Just the initial piercing of the ear and they stop crying.

Plus they are Darling :)





 It's the first time this year we've gone to the park.  With me being carless, Super pregnant, and a new mom of 2, I finally took the girls to the park.  I don't know if Jaedyn really remembers going last year but now she loves it and asks all the time to go to the park. 

She also LOVED the teeter totter...She will sit on my legs and want me to lift her up and down with my legs and say teeter totter - teeter totter! Love her :)






Best Letter Came in the Mail about a week after our anniversary and guess what it was?!?!

It was the letter saying Luther and his ex-wife Rachael are no longer sealed!!!

YES!!!  It's official!!

BEST LETTER EVER!!

Congragulations to Rachael and getting sealed to her new husband!  We wish you the best of luck!

We're actually getting ready to start the process of us getting sealed together and to our 2 beautiful girls.  Hopefully we will be doing this the end of the summer beginning fall!

People say the hardest year of marriage is the 1st year then it gets easier.  I always thought no it'll be easy, I'll be with the person I love how hard could it really be?!  Well the truth of it is...Marriage wasn't really easy until the end of the 2nd year.  It's definetley had great, and amazing times and I wouldn't trade my hubby for another hubby, but it is hard work.  Getting to know each other for their faults, their habits, their lifestyle, and getting to know who they really are (not that they hide it but because you get to know the true person by living with them.)  And I will be the first to admit, I'm not always the easiest person to live with.  So I'm so grateful Luther is super patient with me.

In April we celebrated our 3 year anniversary! YAY for us :)  I love my hubby so much and I appreciate all his hard work for us!  Even though our anniversary is on the 18th we ended up celebrating on the 13th since our anniversary landed on a Wednesday.  So we celebrated the weekend before.  Luther took off work that Friday and we had a good time.  My parents watched Jaedyn which was nice but we did have Hallee since I nurse her and she couldn't be away from me more than and hour or two.

In January I sold my Durango to Luther's sister, which put me carless for about 4 months and let me tell ya, It's not easy being stranded at home with 2 kids and carless, luckily my mom lives like 5 minutes away so it wasn't horrible but not exactly the funnest so for our anniversary we bought me a 2011 Chevrolet Traverse! MAN - DO I LOVE IT!!

We spent the weekend shopping and enjoying each others company since Luther is SuPeR busy with his 2 jobs.  (His full time and his own company) So he works about 60-80 hours a week.  But this weekend was no working at all! YAY!

 On our actual anniversary the 18th we were just going to sit home and hang out since we celebrated the weekend before but Luther put his name in a drawing at work for free tickets to the Royals game and guess what....It is our lucky day! We went to the Royals game.  It was fun!  We took Hallee with us since like I said before, I do nurse.  I wanted to get her a Royals outfit but I didn't have much time so I went to Walmart hoping they would have something but they didn't so I quickly put together this tutu and I already had her bow made from Jaedyn so this is Hallee sporting the Royals.  Isn't she cute?!
 These tickets were pretty amazing!  They were practically front row seats right behind the dugout.  We were maybe 6 or 7 rows up on the lowest level.  These were GREAT seats!
 This is us! I hate this picture of me but I had to put a picture of us up since we celebrate our anniversary!  Ya Luther is wearing a KU shirt and I'm just wearing a baseball shirt.  We don't have any Royals clothes so we atleast wore there colors ;)
I can't wait to spend many more years with this man!  I'm pretty lucky :)
