Hollie Sue

Today is my sister's in law birthday and I would like to take this time to wish her a happy birthday! Hollie is very strong willed and well strong in general! :) She has a goofy husband and 4 little ones that are oh so very cute. They are so intelligent and Hollie works so hard to teach them everything they need to know plus more.  They live in England so we dont see them very often and we miss you all oh so very much! We hope you have a fabulous day! We love you!!!
Happy Birthday-

One Year

Our little boy is one so we went to get some pictures taken at Kiddie so we could get the blocks that say "1" well our experience was not so great and I am just going to invest in some number and letter blocks so we wont have to go back and blow $50 ... BUT Auklin is still so dang cute- we got a couple good smiles but all his faces are so cute I just love them!!!  They are small but you can get the just...

The famous look!




That is my foot in the bottom right corner :) he would not sit there unless I held him-



If you cant tell- he is crying in this one!

Tis the Season!!!

Well we got our tree up and decorated last week and I am a little slow- but, it was so fun- we cut it down ourselves and I must say it is a pretty cute tree! It has a nice shape :) it is so fun to be in our home for Christmas and to decorate it all up- Kasey put our lights up on the house and they are perfect. he is pro-fesh-in-lllll!!! You will just have to drive by and see for yourself! :) Auklin loved helping Kasey set up the tree, we could not get him out of the way not even to put the tree n the stand. He had to be right there in the action! He actually does really well with leaving the tree alone- he hasnt even tried to unwrap the presents yet... Well I hope you enjoy our cute tree! Happy Holidays!
Picking out a spot for his special Ornament! 


The bottom looks tons brighter because it is! The tree was so pokey I gave up on the lights! I started out pretty good and then I could not take it anymore- the rest of them got pretty much thrown on!!! :)

Our little Boy is ONE!!!

Auklin's birthday is today and it was so much fun! He is so big and it is crazy to think he is 1 ahhh- so fun! For his birthday we got him a car seat and clothes, he got lots of toys and he loves them all so much! He got a little basketball hoop and we stuck it to the fridge and he is already putting the ball through the hoop all by himself- : ) He is so BIG! He loved his cake- at first he was a little scared because lately we have been making a big deal about candles and fire and how its dangerous, he put his hands in the "Freeze" position and leaned back, his cute little face was scared but after the candle was gone he loved it!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUKLIN...

Gracie Jen Christiansen

This weekend we had the most amazing experience... We were able to go with my brother and Sister in law to the courthouse and see my sweet little niece become legally adopted to them- then the best part of all, we had the opportunity to go to the temple and had Gracie sealed to Blake and Amanda and to all of us for time and all eternity! It was so awesome! Then Blake was finally able to bless her and it was so sweet! I am so thankful for Blake and Amanda and their patience to have Gracie come be a part of our family, she is the sweetest little thing and I know she has always been a part of our family.  She has such a happy personality and we love her so much!!! Thanks to Blake and Amanda for sharing this wonderful experience!

11 Months

So I am SUPER late on posting these- My computer ran out of memory so I have to adjust it every time i take pictures- we are hopefully getting more memory for it! But I was able to get these on here and share them! Auklin will actually be 1 in like a week and a half! Its CRAZY! time has flown- he is still working on walking, he showed a lot of interest in it a couple months ago and he has taken about 5 or 6 wabbly steps but kinda lost interest the past little while- but we still work with him and when he walks with us he loves it! He will get there- when he is ready. Other than that Auklin loves to talk and whisper to himself. I often catch him playing with toys and whispering gibberish- it is so dang cute! I can tell he is getting smarter and getting the hang of things- I love to watch him figure things out on his own like how to save his binky from under his crib- there was 3 as a matter of fact under there and I was sitting there with him and he crawled under his crib grabbed one and brought it back to me then he looked back under there and said "ooo!" with his lips on this tight O shape and points at the crib and crawls back to get another binky. Then he did it again for the 3rd. it was so funny! He is getting so so big- we just have so much fun. Auklin loves playing outside so I thought I would shoot his 11 month playing in the leaves!
