Brand New!

I've been reading some blogs and decided to start my own. I have things I'd like to share, but don't feel that facebook is the place. SO here I can say what I want and it doesn't show up in your face like a facebook post. Not all of my "friends" on facebook would always agree with my opinions, so I try to be respectful of that and think of them.
SOO, if you read my posts it's your fault if you dont like what I say :) 

Another reason I wanted to blog was to have a journal of sorts.  I'm bad about writing in mine and maybe this I will be better at. We shall see.

I am a mother of two fantastic girls, and a wife to an amazing man. Our children are 2 and a half and 11 months. We live in northwest Arkansas and love it here. I grew up in Houston, Texas and moved to this area when I was 11.  Aaron (that husband I mentioned) has lived right here his whole life. We love northwest Arkansas though and are glad our home is here. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I joined the church when I was seventeen the summer before my senior year of high school. Best decision I have ever made. Who knows where life would have taken me without it. It is a major part of my life so of course it will be mentioned. I am opinionated though I try to be respectful of others opinions and know that someone will always disagree and that's okay. To far either way is bad, you must find a balance in all things. 

A little about each of us:
Me: I am a stay at home mom for now. I have my degree in early childhood education and still have a great passion to teach, but felt it was more important at this time to be with my kids. Being a mom is a tough job, but one with many rewards also.  I love to work on my genealogy and find out about my family, there is a certain thrill that comes with it.  If you've never researched your ancestors you should! 

Aaron: Owns a business called NuFangled images. It is a video/multimedia company.  He does lots of work transferring home videos from multiple facets of old technology, and much much more. Check out nufangledimages.com NOt to mention he works for a logistics company on top of that. He works a lot, but it's a tremendous blessing. He loves filming and editing. If he could do anything he would write and produce films,t hat is his real passion, but for now this is his road.

Kayla: Wow. She is 2 and a half right now, and such a joy. I can't believe she is already so big. We enjoy her sweet spirit. She loves to dance and sing, but her greatest joy READING! She has been a book worm since she was 9 months literally. We could lay her down and read a book to her and she would just look at the pictures and be into the book. Her favorite songs are twinkle twinkle little star, the itsy bitsy spider, Jesus wants me for a Sunbeam, and Come Coe ye Saints, We sing these every day.
I am so grateful Heavenly Father blessed us with her.

Adalyn: 11months old, and wow does the second grow ten times faster than the first. I feel like I just brought her home yesterday, then again I wouldn't do those first three months over again. She is about ready to walk and goes anywhere and everywhere she can. Especially the stairs. If the gate is not up she knows and she beelines it for them. She says mama, dada, and bye bye while waving. SHe tries to mimic other words but these are the clearest. Her tooth count is up to 6 now! If she hears music her body starts moving. We love to watch ehr bounce and dance. Her favorite food is vanilla wafers. 
Each child brings a new joy and she has definitely added that to our home. Kayla is her favorite person and they get along great!  

Have a fantastic week!

Adalyn has grown a bit.
