It's the Little Things

Today I had Beckham sitting on my lap and leaning back on my tummy and I felt a bubble! At first I thought I made it up in my head but then there it was again, my sweet baby kicking his or her big brother :) That made it real... I'm a mommy of two. I've got another sweet baby on the way. 2 years ago I wouldn't have dreamed I'd be where I am now. I'm so lucky so...

I decided to list the little things in life I'm loving right now.

When Beckham smiles really big you can see his two bottom baby teeth.
Family snuggle time- this is when we all get in our bed and play, snuggle and laugh.
Baby kicks.
Jared letting me take naps.
He still makes me laugh every day by the way...  :)
Cooking, I found a love for it again finally.
Skype with family.
Plan of Salvation... I've thought about it a lot lately because of recent happenings. 
Baby bumps... I've finally embraced my baby bump even though it came 2 weeks before it did with Beckham (and 2 times as big).
Waking up in the morning with Beckham.  Sometimes it's hard, but you will never know how sweet it is to walk into that baby's room.  As soon as he sees my face or hears my voice he gets the biggest smile and kicks his legs with excitement.
Watching Jared feed Beckham.  I love peeking into their relationship.  They look at eachother the whole time and Jared whispers how much he loves his baby boy. 

There's so much more but I definitely don't want to forget these things in particular.

My First Official Mother's Day

What a wonderful Mother's Day!  I woke up this morning at 7 and snuggled Beckham until around 9 and thought about how blessed I am to have my babies and finally be a mommy.  I know I'm only 22 but I have loved my children since I was a child myself.  I always knew I was meant to be a mom.  My first Mother's Day and I have the two most beautiful, wonderful miracles in my life right alongside their daddy.

Slim fast

Gotta looove slim fast! Week 2 and we both feel great and like we've lost weight already. Working out has been fun with jared and beckham.
Baby bean is doing good and morning sickness is gone! Foods I love this time around are slim fast, smoothies, chinese and salads :) healthy huh?
Jared and I went on a date this weekend because Cassie and Taylor offered to watch him! Apparently he was good for them :) we went to Chilies and then to the City Creek Center which, by the way, is amazing!

Testimony meeting

Well last Sunday was testimony meeting and those very words terrify me. When I even think about going up there to give my testimony my throat closes up, and I freak out.
Jared challenged me to go up there and bear my testimony but I just couldn't. I thought about it and I haven't done that in over 5 years... My husband hasn't heard my testimony.  How sad is that? My mom used to tell me that angels write our testimonies down when we bear it.
This month, i'm doing it. No more holding back. I'm sitting up front, wearing flat shoes and doing it. I have a testimony and I think it's important that the world hears it... It's not good enough to keep it to myself.
Today is General Conference and I'm watching it with my baby boy. Here he is!


March

This month has been great! I feel like pictures are worth a lot more than words so I'll just tell the story of March in pictures!  A new baby, Vegas, Cali and so much fun, enjoy :) 
March 5, PREGNANT!
