Sweet Style

i don't have many bad days, but today was one of them. first, i have a cold and that has lead my voice to almost completely leave me and that stinks for 2 reasons.
1. i can't talk.
2. i can't talk on the phone to anyone, including holly whom i really want to catch up with.

the second reason today was not fun was because my adorable little boy decided that 2:00am-6:30am would be daytime.
so not cool dude.

so, don't mind me but i am posting pictures that bring me happiness to rejuvenate my soul for today.
pray with me that lincoln will understand that tonight we SLEEP.

this kitchen.
seriously, i don't think i even have to explain why i like this.
little boys room. no, my kids will never have this because you are asking for your kids to be spoiled, but honestly what a sweet room!
love this bed, colors, windows and saying on the wall above
"we are so good together"
me and holly last march in nyc.
i can't wait for this sassy chick to move to provo.
man i love this nursery. if i had an actual bedroom for linc, this is what would inspire it.
ah...i imagine my little children coming home and hanging their backpacks and rain jackets on the trees and coming to find me to tell me about their day...
i love baths. i love lime green baths even more.

ah....i feel so much better. thanks.

Baby Blessing

This last Sunday we blessed Lincoln and it was such a special day! Both our families came down, including some of our grandparents.

The handsome little one himself, all spiffed up and ready to go.
(Yes, I did do his hair super cute, but it never stays and ends up going straight up anyway...)
The blessing was wonderful, even though Lincoln cried through the whole thing. After we went to Bob and Claire's home for dinner with our families and it was so wonderful to have everyone there.
Thanks to everyone who came! It was such a special day and we were so happy to share it with our families.

1. Nights when Lincoln sleeps all through the night.
2. Fun projects!
3. Design blogs.

Right Now....

Is My Favorite Time of Day.
I get to sit on the couch, feed Lincoln, and hold him in my arms while he falls asleep for his afternoon nap.

Being a mom is the bomb and I don't want to be anywhere else.
1. Lincoln.
2. Winter storms.

You Got Jimmered

Last night my dad, mom, Trevor, Brett, Lincoln and I went to the BYU basketball game vs. Colorado. It was such a fantastic time! We enjoyed a wonderful dinner at Macaroni Grill before-always so yummy!! Brett and I got us some free tickets for the game and as you can tell they were such great seats!! ;) J/K they were almost the top row but surprisingly we were able to see really well. Jimmer scored 34 points and we won the game. It's so fun to cheer for such a great team that's doing so well this year.

I love watching the fans. The signs they hold up absolutely crack me up. My favorite said:
Jimmer's worst night=your best night.
Lincoln slept through the entire game but we hope subliminally he heard the cheer of the cougars. :)
Lincoln and I in our matching shirts that Brett got us for Christmas.

1. 3 nights in a row Lincoln has slept through the night!! I hope it lasts!!
2. Fun night with my family.
3. Being so rested!

Farewell to Katie

This last weekend we headed up to Kaysville/Farmington to see our families and it's always so fun to see them. The occasion this weekend was a goodbye dinner for Katie who recently accepted a position at an advertising firm in Chicago. We are so excited for her! She is extremely talented and this is such an incredible opportunity for her. We already miss her so much!!
Katie, Bob, and Linc
We stopped by my parents home before the party to visit my family as well and watch the BYU basketball game...let's just say that the University of Utah basketball team got jimmered. :)
