Some "firsts"

















































So there have been a lot of first time things going on at our house. The number one most exciting first thing that occurred last week, was Sadie beginning to sleep through the night. That's right, she has not slept longer than a few hours at a time until last monday. Now, she will sleep all night long. HALLELUJAH!! Finally after 2 years I can get a good nights rest:) Sadie also took her first steps on September 18th. She is taking more and more steps each day. So that is exciting news for her. Bailee also just moved from a crib to a big girl bed. I was so excited when my mom said that Bailee could have my bedroom set from when I was little. That just makes her room all the more special to me. Bailee is so funny though, she will walk to the basement and make her self a little bed in the middle of the night. Weird child! The girls also got to go the county fair for the first time. Jake was so excited to bring them there, it was hilarious. You can't see, but we got Bailee some cute pink cowboy boots. She had so much fun saying hi to everyone, especially the animals. Lastly, I took the girls up to Bear Lake where my parents are building a cabin. They had so much fun playing in the water and eating sand. It is so fun to see the girls experience things for the first time. They are sure growing up, and my life is beginning to get easier each day!

Pam, Ok... so I totally had the dresser and hutch that matched that bedroom set when I was little. Actually, I just barely sold it on KSL last week. That is too funny!! I want to come visit one of these days. What is a good day for you?

Bailee's room is so cute. It is so good that you finally are able to sleep. You never know how much you miss it, until you don't have it anymore.

Pam I don't know how you survived that long not getting a good nights rest. You are super mom that's for sure. I'm glad you are finally getting some rest. I think it's great that Bailee got your bedroom set. It's adorable and I love her room. Congrats on the firsts. I wish we would have got to see you guys while we were in Utah. Hopefully at Christmas this time.
