The Last Week of 2011

2011 was a wonderful year for us! Im even more excited for 2012 though!
In 2011 Dave and I found out we were pregnant the middle of February and got to experience this amazing pregnancy all most the whole year, and after it was over we got to bring this sweet little baby into our home. We love him so much, its great to see how much he grows and changes and learns everyday! I also started a wonderful job in 2011 while I was pregnant and they have allowed me to bring Owen to work, what a blessing! David was busy with school and working at Ada Co Sheriffs office. We enjoyed this year mostly. It was incredibly busy though! I look forward to watching Owen grow more this year, I have at least 6 close friends that are pregnant and more friends than that that are pregnant. I cant wait to be part of their pregnancy's and motherhoods. Dave and I are considering moving across the country this summer and renting out our home...Nothing official, just a thought! It has its Pro's and Con's but the Pro's outweigh the Con's so we will decide if this is something we infact want to do or not.

The last week of 2011 was a great week. We had Christmas eve, Christmas, My birthday, McCall trip, lots of family time, New Years eve, and  Owens blessing day.
Chirstmas was so much fun, It was obviously Owens first Chirstmas so we continued with some traditions for him, Chirstmas ornanment every year, he got the cutest ornament I have ever seen! We started the Christmas jammies with him too!
Since Owen was just born he really doesnt need anything but we still wanted to get him some things since it was his first! We bought him a play mat (which we got out early) and he loves it sooooooo much! He got a blanket from Gma Foster and 2 books and a shirt from Gma Cole, and we bought him a few outfits and stuff.

Between Dave and I we got too much stuff ;) Dave bought me a sewing machine and I am so excited about it! I have been wanting one and this one is soooo perfect and does sooo much! It quilts and does over 70 stitches. Wow. Its awesome. Dave got a big game package from me, I think it was his favorite. It was a game chair that has speakers in it, a game, PS3 Move and all its remotes and Owen 'got' him a keyboard for his PS3, anyway it was great, our stockings were stuffed and we had so much fun!
We spent Christmas with both familys and we got to Skype with my sister Molly who is on a mission. It was great! The day after Christmas we went to McCall and stopped at Warm Lake on the way up to see our Aunt and we visited with her for a while. McCall was fun, there was not much snow, but, there was some. We went ice skating, tubing, out to dinner, hot tubing, swimming. It was fun. I was so glad to be home though. For my 21st birthday we went out to dinner and played games (my 3500$ HYLA was my birthday present).  New years eve we blessed our beautiful baby. He was so crabby that day but as soon as we started the blessing with prayer he relaxed and was so happy and when Dave opened his eyes and looked at Owen after the blessing he had a huge smile on his face. He's such a good baby. :)  I know this whole post was jumbled and possibly confusing but I am writing in a hurry ;) Here are some pictures from the last week!
Happy New Year!
