This Funny Thing Called Life....

I'm learning more and more everyday that I am  not completely in charge of my life. And sometimes I have to sit back and remember that. I felt like our decision to move back to Idaho was falling into place perfectly. But once we got here,  nothing is working as great as we planned. I went to Utah this past week to temp for the last time and got offered my THIRD job in Utah in the past two months! Ugh... I was tempted to tell Mitch we're packing up and moving back! But, when I look at all the fun pictures and adventures we've been on since we've been back, it makes everything seem better. Our friends are here and most importantly our family. It's also a huge comfort knowing the big man upstairs has our best interest at heart. Baby B is LOVING every bit of attention she gets here. And boy does she get plenty. Everywhere we go, everyone makes a huge fuss over her and she knows it. Especially her out of control hair. Check out that bed head! Oh wait, it looks like that every time ;) 
She's growing up way too fast. I can't believe she's almost three months old! She is starting to get such a personality and then some. She knows EXACTLY what she wants and doesn't stop until she gets it. Yesterday, Mitch got home from Utah and was talking to her. He got up to go to the bathroom and this girls eye's followed him all the way to the bathroom door and once it closed she started SCREAMING! Boy, I think we have a daddy's girl in the making. The second he got out of the bathroom and came and sat by her, she got that giant grin on her face again. I wish I could have caught that on video, it was hilarious to say the least. I can't believe how much you can love something so small. And when I look at that face of hers, I realize no matter where we live {or don't live, since we're still pretty much homeless} all we really  need is the three of us. Whether it's in Utah or Idaho, it doesn't really matter. As long as I have my beautiful little family, that's all I really care about. I mean, it would be nice to have a home and a job, so if anyone has the secret to this funny thing called life, I would love to hear all about it. 

 This was our trip to Boise. We had an AMAZING weekend with just the girls and the Harv man. I wish my sister would just move to Rexburg already. I told her we could all build houses on the same street and be neighbors for the rest of our lives. Sounds perfect right? It's so crazy to look at these beautiful kids and realize that they are ours! Seems like just yesterday we were swimming in these pools as kids ourselves with our cousins.

Baby B's first time at the pool was a total hit! She was a little tired and hungry at first, so after a quick feed and cat nap she was ready to swim! She LOVES the water. she was kicking and splashing the entire time. Don't Baby B and the Harv man look absolutely adorable in their swim attire! I tried to get more pictures of Ev but she was on the move the whole time.

I've decided I have thee BEST friends a girl could ask for...hands down

And here are just a couple {out of the hundreds} of videos of our sweet.silly.adorable.perfect little girl. playing peek-a-boo with grandma and talking to daddy after he got home from Utah...


WHOA, I guess I should have warned you at the beginning of this post that it was a total picture overload. But I guess if you've made it this far you figured that out already. Probably could have made this into three separate posts. But, I just want to say thanks for all the friends and family who made our big move up to Idaho worth it. We are excited to see what our crazy life has in store for us...

Love, 
he, me and baby b...
