Carly Crosland

she is seriously the cutest thing ever. and now has a fascination with the camera, likes to say 'cheese' as big as she can, and then look at the picture i just took of her. she is also trying really hard to say, 'Lucy'.... it sounds kind of like 'i-cy'. =) as far as parenting goes- we pretty much breezed through Lucy's 'infancy'.  she was seriously the BEST baby ever! slept great- ate ever 3-4 hours- was and is still super social, loves people, healthy, etc... honestly- you can see how i'm scared to have another one? my luck is sure to end soon. well- i think it has. Lucy has entered 'toddlerhood'. I can take the tantrums, the coming and going of biting (as soon as i bite her back she stops for a few months- but just recently bit me again! the turd. i bit her back, and it stopped again... huh.), among other grand things she is going through right now. we have a major problem though. MAJOR. Her blanky. When she was like a month old I fo...

We had a fabulous Thanksgiving this year! Wednesday we headed up to Kaysville and spent the day with the Crosland family! We had a wonderful meal, and then went and saw 'Tangled'. It was so cute! Even little Blake and Lucy loved it! Poor Blake has to endure Lucy's constant following her around, trying to hold her hand, play with her, etc... It is so funny to watch those two play. Lucy adores her cousin Blake!  cute aunt Jessi playing with the girls at the movie! Thursday we had Thanksgiving at my mom's house! She had a full house- my cute cousin Jackie Rae was there, the Rasmussen family came over, and my aunt Cindy. Lucy could seriously play on the piano all day! She does the same thing at Grandma Bonnie's house too! My belly at almost 17 wks! I seriously cannot believe how big my belly has gotten already- it is going to be ginormous by the time I have this baby! We got the 'kid' table this year. Lucy LOVES her cousin Carter. She seriously i...

this is where i find my little jane just about every morning either when i wake up or when i get home from cheer. this morning she's watching cinderella... she has officially taken over one of our pillows, so now it's me and tyler who battle over who gets the good pillow! and i am horrible at 'photography'- but here is lucy's quilt so far! definitely busy, and bright! but i love it!  and i just wanted to show how cute my 'blog book' from 2009 is! again- awful pics, but still- you get the idea. love it! heading up to kaysville today for crosland thanksgiving, then brock thanksgiving tomorrow! yay! and p.s. what blizzard? i think it snowed maybe a quarter of an inch last night. i think it might be more accurate to say, "really cold."

i have some serious catch up. and i need to be SO much better at taking pictures- seriously fail lately! i am more motivated though, because i just got my 'blog book' done from 2009 and i absolutely love it! it turned out so dang cute- so i need to stay up to date on bloggin'. BUT... first things first. Harry Potter 7. Seriously, Tyler and I are the biggest fans ever! It's probably like the #1 thing we have in common... hahaha. But really. I just finished reading all 7 books again so I could be fully prepared- and we just watched all 6 movies! awesome. I don't care what anyone says- the Harry Potter books are the best books ever written. Hands down. We drove up to K-town Thursday after Ty got off work so we could put Lucy to sleep at grandma Bonnie's. I seriously LOVE reserved seats. We got there like a half hour early, and just waited. We totally could have gotten there at midnight and been just fine-- the movie. Overall- Loved it. Of course they left out and ...

So I am now 15 wks. I swear I have 'popped' already. Proof above. It's just a lovely thought to see how big my stomach already is and to think that it's not even close to how big it is really going to be.  Ah the joys of pregnancy. =) i can't wait to be skinny again.  and have another baby! i'm worried Lucy will be a little TOO loving. Know what I mean? Like with my nephew Carter, ('Car-cer' to Lucy), she loves him to death, but is always wanting to hold him, touch him, etc... It's like she's going to maul him! anyhow. Ty is convinced we are having a boy, and I sorta am too. I think we'll both be surprised if it's another girly. But I would still be so excited.. I have been looking in the newborn boy clothes and haven't even found anything that cute. I still end up going back to the girl clothes to shop for Lucy. Haha.... I'm sorry I suck at blogging lately. We had a great week! Thursday I went up to Kaysville and Lucy had a pla...

so i just finished my blog book for 2009. finally! but it made me realize that i kind of suck at blogging lately. this is really the only scrapbook i have now of our little family, so i'll give a little update in each of our lives. baby: 14.5 wks along. daddy is convinced you are a B-o-y. mommy isn't quite sure what to do with boys. and will be thrilled with either boy or girl. we hopefully find out in 3 weeks! yay! we like henry/hank for a boy. and honestly can't think of anything else for boy or girl. i like clara or oliver. tyler likes nothing. lucy doesn't really understand, but is good at saying, Ba-by. mommy feels pretty great- other than sleeping 13 hours+ a day, and just feeling kinda gross sometimes, but i know it could be much much worse. gained about 2-4 lbs i think. (ok- but really i think i just lost all my muscle and got a pot belly.=)) lucy: still taking gymnastics loves to sleep in her kitty cat jammies, and meow in the mirror at herself ...

so i'm glad lucy wore her costume to gymnastics on wednesday- she was in a dreadful mood saturday night to say the least. we were planning on taking her to this party with us, and i swear as soon as we decided to leave her with grandma and go without her she was like perfectly happy. she is so funny. and wouldn't let me even think about putting her cat make up on her- as you can tell. every time i tried she would sob. she has such a little personality. so- i stole most of lucy's costume and was a cat, and tyler was spiderman! here she is trick or treating at the crosland's! we left her with grandma and papa crosland and went to meg & ladd's party for a little while before heading home.  you would never know it- but meg and i are due 4 days apart! she is still not showing at all- and i look like 5 months pregnant. ladd's dad is a photographer so he took these funny pictures of us all at his studio where the party was. ladd seriously looks so creepy- he ...
