cute comparison

Cute Picture of Troy at three months!

Hailey at 3 months! (Also cute!)

I thought it'd be cute to compare pictures of Hailey and Troy at the same age.


Hailey watching her show, Troy hanging out too! He's 3 months old and already in size three diapers. I'm pretty sure Hailey was like 6 months before she was in size three!

Family Picture











I'm always trying to get cute pictures of our little family because our kids are changing so fast espiecially Troy. It's really hard to find times though to take pictures when were all together, and looking presentable. Most of the time I'm sporting a mommy pony tail and Hailey's hair is messy and you get the idea! These turned out pretty cute although I should add that Josh is not feeling his best but hopefully he's almost over it! I LOVE MY FAMILY!
I need to play with my blog alot more sometime too so that I can figure a lot of things out, like roatating pictures and having the text more where I want it and easily moving pictures and so on! And a cuter back ground. We'll see...

Troy's special day!























































Today we blessed our big baby Troy! We estimate he is close to fifteen pounds. This is a 3-6 month outfit and it barely fits. It depends on the brand but wow this kid is growing fast! He is so fun, he's starting to talk or gooing more and smiles alot. It surprises me how fun these mile stones are even with a second. I thought it might not be as exciting the second time around but I love it! I posted all of these pictures because we didn't have someone to take them so there's some one missing in every picture. And Grandpa Hakes, Grandpa Kohler, Carrie and Kimball had to leave early so we didn't get a picture of them! We'll try again soon it get a picture with everyone. A little side note, our sacerment meets a 8AM so I know that's a little bit of a sacerfice for everyone. We had a little dinner at our house in the afternoon with family! I tried to get at least one picture of every one but I realized that the only one I didn't get a picture of is my dad! Sorry dad! I love you!


(A little personal note: Lately I feel like I can get a lot of what I want to get done, accomplished but I'm usually not satisfied because I feel like I still have so many unfinished projects or errands. Like finishing Hailey's blanket, finishing Troy's room, work in progress, organizing the study, etc. That's kinda tough! I wish I was more on top of things.)


On a postive side, Hailey is potty trained! We put it off for the longest time but we finally did it and it has been awesome! I love it. I was expecting it to be really hard but it's been really rewarding. One cute thing that she says a lot is "I need a little bit privacy." It's so stinking cute!

Catching up! Trip to Dallas!


So we decided to go visit Katie and Joe for Labor day weekend and it just happened to be that the big BYU game was that weekend also. j/k No accident but it was tons of fun although I must admit it was quite a bitter drive. Hailey can't stop talking about the bounce house and visiting her cousin Nathan who is such a Sweetie!

Cute picture of Troy so comfy on mom.
