A BIG UPDATE and EXCITING NEWS!!!!

THERE IS AN EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT THAT RYAN AND I ARE EXCITED TO TELL EVERYONE AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POSTS!


WOW WHERE HAVE I BEEN.... ok well here is an update mainly for me to know what to put into out family yearbook that I make every year. 

*Paisley went to the Zoo for the first time. She loved it! I can't wait to take her again. We went to the Hogle Zoo in Northern Utah. 

*Best $100 that we ever spent was the 2 passes for Ryan and I to take Paisley to the Shark Reef. We live about 10 minutes from the strip so we thought it would be a fun thing for us to do as a family. We paid for our season passes within 4 visits. Ryan takes her every Thursday or Fridays while I am at work and we try to go as a family on either Mondays or Tuesdays.

* Paisley is a talkaholic. she says a lot of words but my favorite words are. You ok?, turtle, shark, baybee (baby), kitty kitty meow, backpack, outside, what's that, WOW (in a soft soft voice),hat, shoes, choo choo,weeee, pasta, night night )turns her head to the side,bye byeeeee, and "Coco! get down!".

PAISLEY IS POTTY TRAINED!

What..... Did you think I was going to say I was pregnant. hahaha

I wasn't sure if she was ready but the fact that I had a week off work and she was showing a few "ready signs" I though what the heck it wont hurt to try. And if she wasn't ready we will try again around her second birthday.

The first day went pretty good. of course there were accidents here and there but not as many as I was expecting. The next day went GREAT! she only had 2 pee accident, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Today, even better only one poop accident! I'll make another post on how we did it in only 3 days. Yes, I know she is still going to have accident expecially because she can't verbally say, "mommy I need to pee/poop but as long as I am good about reminding her to go she does great!

Ahhhhhh

I so badly want to vent right now.....  no one reads these posts right??? Sometimes I just want to say everything on here but I find myself writing the whole post and then deleting it. I would talk to a friend or even Ryan but I don't want to vent too much to any specific person because I don't want them to get annoyed with me. grrrrr. This is enough venting for now I guess.

I think I need to go to a therapist :) too bad they are so damn expensive.

Paisley's Update

I cannot believe how fast Paisley is growing up. A part of me is really sad watching her getting bigger and bigger but the other part of me is excited to see her grow and learn new things. 

Since Paisley has turned one she has been talking a ton. Of course most of it is "Paisley language" that I don't understand, I just smile and nod my head and she smiles back but for real words she is saying outside, bubbles, ball, coco, duck, shark, what's that, meow, ruff, and more. 

As for walking Paisley is really getting the hang of it. When we are home she walks about 85% of the time when we are out and about it's more like 5 % of the time. I'm totally fine with her crawling it makes me feel like she is still a baby. :)

She just finished another teething phase and now has 8 teeth (4 on top and 4 on the bottom). 

well, that her update for now :)

365 Days With You Week 27 Utah Special

4th of July/Utah Trip

This 4th of July Paisley and I spent it up in Utah with my mom and my extended family. It was a lot of fun. Utah sure does know how to celebrate our country's birthday. We sat out on my aunt's back porch and just watched all of the fire works go off in all of the surrounding towns. We also went to a 4th of July carnival where Paisley got her first tattoo. 

fishing trip

Ryan's family does a fishing trip just about every year. The last time we were on this trip was when we were engaged. I love being around Ryan's family, they are so much fun!. On the trip we went horse back riding, fishing and hiking. Paisley had a great time. I am looking forward to the next trip!

Rod caught two fish at once

This is how I caught a fish
