One Year!









































Our little Cheryl Love is officially one year old. We celebrated her birthday Saturday with Christopherson Grandparents(Nathan's parents), Adriane(my cousin)her husband Shane and there daughter Ivy, and Bonnie(my cousin),and her two daughter's Shaylee and Brooke. It was so much fun! We played pin the ladybug on the flower, ate pizza, and cupcakes and cake. The girls had some much fun playing with all Cheryl's toys and she didn't mind if they played with anything. She is walking fully now and so she seems to love to be able to keep up with the older girls. Thanks for coming everyone! Thanks to anyone else who wasn't there but send gifts and cards...thanks for helping us celebrate our little girls birthday.

Cheryl is a special girl. She is smiley, happy and cute. She loves to read, sometimes she will go in her room and start looking at books for a while by herself. She loves it when her Daddy comes home...all she wants is him! It's really cute. She likes to mimic us all the time, if we stick our tongues out...she will too. Wherever we are she wants to be. She has two front teeth and the top and two on the bottom, and she loves to chew and her crib. She loves people and never gets upset being around anyone new. She loves to watch T.V. mostly P.B.S...she loves Sesame Street, Olivia, Sponge bob, and I let her watch T.V. almost every day. She takes two naps during the day and if she doesn't have them, then she is cranky and lets me know. Her favorite food is Bananas, oranges, noodles with veggies and stuff with sugar now.(Although, I try and limit her sugar intake) She loves the camera, when I tell her to smile she usually does. She is very photogenic. I could go on and on about her and what I love about her. She truly is a wonderful girl and I can't wait to see how she is going to be this next year. We love you dearly Cheryl.

2 Years Old, Really?!

So, our little girl Cheryl Love turned 2 on January 5th! We actually have a 2 year old. Wow. It was so much fun. Cheryl loves monkey's and her new favorite movie is Jungle Book (if I let her she would watch it all day), so we decided to do a monkey themed birthday party. We had vines hanging from the ceiling and I even made a monkey cake. We had Bonnie my cousin and her daughters, Shaylee and Brooke and my cousin Adriann and her daughter Ivy and of course me, Nathan, CHERYL, and June. Plenty of people and poor Nathan the only boy. Oh well whats ya gonna do, huh? We had so much fun. We ate Jimmy Johns sandwiches(sorry Joi), and frozen banana Popsicles dipped in yogurt and they were really good. It is one of Cheryl's favorite snacks and healthy too. We played pin the banana on the monkey, without the blindfold. And of course ate cake and opened presents. Thanks to all who gave to Cheryl. Cheryl now has a big girl bed that she adores and loves to be in. Whew, I was so worried that...

No Excuses

June's Cooking Show! June always wants to cook and has been begging me to film her cooking. I had a million excuses, but I decided that June didn't care that she was in her jammies. She didn't care that the kitchen had bad lighting. She didn't even care what she made. She just wanted to have her mom film a video of her cooking in the kitchen (like she loves to do with me). So, with my IPhone in hand and all those excuses that I created I threw them out the window and decided to STEP UP and be the mom she wants and needs. We made the first video in 2017 and she loved it so much. We got busy and made more excuses. June didn't give up though. She wanted to do another video. So, on a school night I wanted to make banana bread and decided that we are already making it, so I might as well let June make it and film it. June loves to cook and watching her video's. I love her so much and I want her to do the things that she loves to do, so, I will continue to not ma...

Eternal Role

Today's Family: The Eternal Role of Mothers click on link to read the article http://www.lds.org/study/prophets-speak-today/unto-all-the-world/the-eternal-role-of-mothers?lang=eng I love this paragraph about mothers. "Among the most important roles of a mother is the call to nurture, Elder Ballard says. “A mother’s nurturing love arouses in children, from their earliest days on earth, an awakening of the memories of love and goodness they experienced in their pre-mortal existence,” he declares. “Because our mothers love us, we learn, or more accurately remember, that God also loves us.”" "Mommy, I love you!", Cheryl says as she wakes me up at 6:30 in the morning. "I love you too, honey", I say, as I hug her tight and never want to let her go. I will take those moments any chance I get, whether it's 6:30 in the morning or in the middle of the night while I am sick and holding my sick child. I have never felt that I truly found my...
