WHAT A GREAT WEEKEND IT WAS........

Stockton - Our Little Man!

Here are some pictures of Stockton over the last month. They go in order from youngest to oldest.

Abby! Not the choke hold! haha

Not sure where he learned the hand/finger gesture?!

Stockton has been such a blessing in our life. I have had so many different thoughts and feelings this past month. I wish I would have wrote them all down. Life has definitely changed for us and has been an adjustment, but with change always comes new adventure and a chance to grow as a person. I have really found out a lot about myself this past month. What a roller coaster ride it has been! I feel so blessed to have a wonderful husband, supportive family, and great friends!

Now to Stockton....he has been a great baby!! He is a great eater, sleeper, and pooper! He is a little on the impatient side, but what hungry baby isn't?!!? He is slowly but surely gaining weight, and has such long arms, legs, finger, and toes! Everyday he is changing, and sure is one handsome little guy!!

Brother and Sister Love:

Absolutely Precious!

An Abby Only Post....

Lately I have been taking a lot of pictures of Stockton. Of course, Abby reminds me to take pictures of her as well, or I will say "Okay Abby it is time to take some pictures of you!" So here is a few pictures of Abby, and what she has been up to the last month. I dedicate this post to my favorite little girl in the whole world.

I LOVE YOU ABIGAIL ELIZA!!

I never get tired of this smile!

Yep, this is Abby taking a little cat nap! I can't remember the last time she fell asleep during the day! Actually, all 3 of us were sleeping. Stockton was in the bouncer and Abby and I was snuggling on the couch! That NEVER happens!! It was nice that Abby slept for 45 minutes or so, but never again! She was such a grouch when she woke up!! Probably because it was like a 3:15 to 4:00 afternoon nap!

Eating lunch.......that looks pretty gross! What am I feeding my child?

Her favorite thing to do these days......COLOR!! Once again, I love that smile!

Just being cute!

Another one of her favorite things.........POPSICLES!

Abby has adjusted so well to Stockton and now being a family of 4. She is a big helper and such a proud big sister!

Okay, I'll stop bragging now......

So, this post is dedicated to Abby...... That means the next post is dedicated to my little man Stockton!!!

The rains came down, and the floods came up.....

This post is about a week late, but that is the story of my life!
Last week here in Pocatello (well some parts of Pocatello) we experienced some flooding. Where we live, we didn't get it, but over by my Grandparents...well they got it! After the damage was done, we went and investigated and took some pictures.

This is the round-a-bout where my Grandparents live, it was completely under water. (the next 3 pictures are also of the round-a-bout)

Riverside golf course

This is the parking lot of an assisted living home that is on the way to my Grandparents. Just one of the few parking lots that got flooded. The cars were almost covered in water

This is about 5 hours after the storm hit. All the hail frozen together. They say it hailed for like an hour!


Abby and Aaron enjoying a popsicle after all the investigating!

And that is the extent of our excitement here in Pocatello!!
