paisley 11 months

well paisley is fast approaching 1 and i am totally freakin out, i want her to stay little forever but this girl wants to grow up, dont worry she was walking at 10 months and now she thinks she should walk everywhere, she is so silly and loves to make people laugh and be goofy. She wants to do everything on her own including eating, she drinks out of a cup with a straw which she also has been doing since 10 months. (i have been told they dont drink out of a straw until they are 2) she is very smart and can figure almost anything out, like how to open things, her new thing is putting lids back onto things and she can. she loves to read and look at pictures, she goes up and down stairs like a pro, swimming is her favorite thing ever, we can be at the pool all day and she never makes a peep. the girl loves her sleep she sleeps in until 10 everyday even when we were just on vacation in st george. she doesnt mind bugs, even when i am screaming and freaking out. she loves her grandma and grandpa she kisses them and hugs them like crazy. i am still trying to get her to be more social whenever we see other kids she stands there and stares at them wont talk to them or play. all in all she is the best baby ever and has been so much fun to watch grow up.

so paisley loves to get into the hallway closet and pull everything out, i guess she got bored of the bottom shelf and decided to get a box and stand on it to reach a higher shelf, she is only 11 months old i never excpected her to be doing this yet, now that she is full blown walking she thinks she is a 2 yr old and gets into EVERYTHING!!!!

Goodbye sweet bo

bo left us today, we love him and will miss him so much, he has been with us for about 16yrs its hard to see him go, but it was his time.

My baby is walking!!!!

So paisley has been starting to walk on her own, crazy she first started to take a couple of steps in between me and greg, and now recently she lets go of whatever she is holding on to and just walks. the first time she did i freaked out and started screaming, i am so not ready for her to be walking already, but too bad that girl wanted too weither mommy was ready or not lol. a word of advice for all the girls i know having baby's they grow up WAY to fast so enjoy it while you can!!

Happy Easter

Happy Easter!!!

Pasiely got to sit on the easter bunnys lap for the first time. I though for sure she was going to scream or cry but she actually liked him, even though shes not smiling in the pic. lol

My dear Brother

Mat and Paisley

Our family is very shocked right now at the news of my brother. I don't know if everyone knows him, but mat is my older brother, who is such a good person, he has so many friends that love him and of course his family. He is not in a good state of mind right now and because of this he made a very bad decision. you could only imagine the shock i was in when i was watching the news one night to see a man (matt) robbing a credit union, the police were looking for him and at the time needed help identifying him. When i first saw it i just said to myself oh my gosh that looks like my brother. I asked greg and he just shrugged it off. I didn't sleep well that night, wondering could that have been MY brother. So the next morning i got on ksl.com and looked at the pics they had of the man, when i opened the first one i new immediately i started shaking and crying i couldn't even comprehend what i was seeing, i called my dad and he hadn't seen the news so he went and looked online at the pics and just said "that's him" i just kept hoping and praying it wasn't really him that i wasn't seeing clearly. a few hours later my dad called me saying that he had been found and arrested, he confessed to the crime. It wasn't until this phone call that reality was sinking in, my own brother who i love and care about so much robbed a bank, of course i was so confused why, what was he thinking, is his life in danger,why didn't he come to his family for help? so many questions running through my head. This has been such a hard time for us especially the fact that it is on the news with his mug shot,we have no choice but to talk about it to people since everybody knows. The hardest part for me has been all the bad things that have been said about him, people that don't even know him are calling him horrible names and saying the most hurtful things. He is not a bad person, he would never hurt anybody. i haven't slept much the past couple of nights, i cant stop thinking about him, i just want to hug him and tell him i love him, and that i will always be here for him. We don't know much now, he is awaiting his sentencing, which i have heard it will be anywhere from 3-7 yrs. They called it aggravated robbery he did not have a weapon he just handed the teller a note and left on foot with little cash. We are trying to stay strong and push out all the negative, its just a hard pill to swallow, i keep asking my mom when will i not think about this, when will i get on with my life, when will i stop crying every time i think about him, when will i stop being angry at him, and at all the people saying things about him? of course it will take time. I just don't want people judging him off of this one stupid decision, i want people to know that good people can get in bad places. I'm so hurt and confused right now, i am so tired and want to hide in a hole. i know we will get through this as a family and hopefully get matt to a better place in his life. please keep your thoughts and prayers with us at this time.
