PEARLS.....

Today was such a blast! BELLA had her second photo shoot this month, thanks to Unlce CHet! This place Chet took us today was absolutley perfect! Bella did so so good! She actually enjoys having her pictures taken! I can't wait for them to be completed. As soon as they are proofed I will get them posted. We are so excited for Halloween this Friday. Bella is soposed to be a Peacock. We tried the costume on her last night and she completely wigged! She wanted nothing to do with it. Ok......Fine. We will figure something out! (I think she'd rather be NAKED, wearing her new PEARLS and a pair of my HEELS-She is such a girl!) I love it though, Bella and I always have SO much FUN!! Love ya Bella!

Sunday Night at the ER




What an EVENTFUL night we have had! Bella and Grandma Christy were having a TUG of WAR with a pillow, Bella lost the tug and took a header right into the small wooden rocking chair. It was so SAD! She had blood running down her face, when we got her all cleaned up she had a pretty good sized gash on her forehead. Of course Grandpa Scooter said she'd be fine, a little butterfly bandaid would do the job! I wasn't that convinced. So Justin and I took her to the ER. Sure enough she needed stitches. She was such a TROOPER! They had to strap her down to a board, she screamed bloody murder! They numbed the wound, and put a white sheet like thing over where it needed to be stitched, so her poor little face was covered. I was holding her hand trying to comfort her and bleieve it or not she fell ASLEEP while Dr. White was stitching her up! We couldn't believe it! It was actually so fastinating to watch the whole procedure. Justin had to leave the room, it made him sick to watch. (Its a good thing us Mom's are TOUGH!) She left the hopsital a happy camper, she thanked the Dr. and Nurses, it was SOO cute!

I was so impressed with Dr. White and his staff. Before we took Bella to the Hospital I first called Brigham City Hopsital to find out who the Dr. was on call, and they told me they couldn't give me that information. (that pissed me off, I thought that was so stupid!) So reluctantly I called B.R.V Hopsital and they assured me that all Dr.'s on call on the weekend's are out of either Logan or Ogden. That made me feel so much better about taking her to our local hopsital. They were awesome!

BELLA.DRESS.SKATEBOARD

Annie and I took the kids to Willow Park. Bella and Hallie LOVED feeded the ducks (dog food)
Bella and Hallie were soposed to be giving each other a hug? Hmm..... More like a choke hold!
Here is little Grace in her Peach Dress and freshly peeled local RAW corn on cob : )

Today I decided to get a start on cleaning Bella's room of her summer clothes and toys she doesn't play with. This child has more clothes and shoes than I do! (Bella and I both LOVE shoes!) As I piled her clothes in the living room to sort through them she found a fancy, peach colored dress that was her Aunt Ellie's. She insisted that Grandma Jill put it on her. I thought she would wear it around the house for a few minutes while I finished sorting clothes. But no...She refused to take it off for her nap...suprise suprise she slept in the beautiful dress. If that wasn't good enough we had a play date scheduled for early afternoon so I tried to change her into some play friendly clothes. She wanted nothing to do with what I had, she wanted her peach Sunday dress, and brown bow in her hair. She looked adorable by the time we got her hair done. She is such her own person. I love it! To top off the afternoon she thought she would try out Jaxon's skateboard in her dress....not a good idea at all. It put a nice hole in the shear fabric. Other than the skateboard incident we had a great time at the park!



This evening I finally made it to the gym! If felt so good to get back! Its amazing how much better it makes you feel!

ITs been a great couple of weeks! Last weekend we went to the lake for a much needed getaway! The weather and water were absolutely beautiful! It was so hard to leave. Bella had her second hair cut last Thursday. She got it cut into a darling little bob. It is so stinkin cute! It totally grew her right up! BEing a mom is GREAT! I love it so so much! I look at my little Bella in pure amasement of how smart and BEAUTIFUL she is! She means the world to both Justin and I. WE LOVE YOU BELLA! TOngith Justin and I took Bells out to the County Fair. We had a great time looking at animals and seeing everyone. (The fair brings people out of the woodwork...where do they come from?!) Bella entertained us by dancing and running around the dance floor at the band stand. Here are a few pics the last few weeks. ENJOY!

SLEEP OVER!

Jaxon, Taylor and Bella had a sleepover last night. We all played Guitar Hero till our
eyes hurt! Bella even attempted to play her own little gig!



The last 2 weeks has been absolutely crazy! I have been working to meet a deadline for my bedding company. I am so excited that my new line of bedding is now in Little Cherry BLossoms on 25th street in Ogden. I can't believe how much work it has been but its all totally been worth it! I love my job and you should all come check out the store!

Last weekend Justin, Bella and I went down to Ogden and had dinner with our great friends Audra and Matt. They are awesome and we love to spend time with them! Saturday evening Justin and I finally found an hour to go golfing together. It was really good to get back on the course after missing it for 2 weeks. Women's club championship is this weekend and i'm pretty stoked about that! Bella started swimming lessons on Monday, she is quite the dare devil. We are having such a great time. Her favorite things to do are count to 3 and jump off the side of the pool and believe it or not go off of the diving board! She is so so brave. I love her so much!!! Today Bella and I had to drive out to the golf course and as soon as we turned the corner she knew exactly where we were and got so excited!! I can't believe at 18 months old she can identify locations. She thought because we were going to the golf course she was going to see her daddy! She was screaming DADDY, DADDY!! It was so funny! Here are a few pictures! ENJOY!!
