The rare ocasion we get to put something in her hair without her ripping it back out.

Before I was a Mom,
I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.
I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.
I never thought about immunizations.
Before I was a Mom -
I had never been puked on.
Pooped on.Chewed on.Peed on.
I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.
I slept all night.
Before I was a Mom,
I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests.
Or give shots.I never looked into teary eyes and cried.
I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.
I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.
Before I was a Mom,I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put her down.
I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.
I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.
I never knew that I could love someone so much.
I never knew I would love being a Mom.
Before I was a Mom -
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.
I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.
I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.
I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.
Before I was a Mom -
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay.
I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache,the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.
I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom.

We took another trip to fairmont hot springs again this year and had tons of fun. Kids seem to make everything so much more exciting and fun. Jayden loved playing in the pool. First thing when she woke up she asked to take a bath. haha The nice thing is there was no one in the pool that early so we got to hog it all. She is our little comedian right now. It is sure funny to see her little sense of humor come out!

BRRRRR
It has snowed so much the last couple of days so today Jayden and I helped Travis shovel. We got her all bundled up in a million layers. She seemed to like it... well for a while anyway. She is such a little helper she just wanted to push the shovel, that didn't make it more challenging at all. ;) haha After we were done we went inside and made cookies!

Three more months to go, although I may not look big to some I sure feel like a lot is being cramped in this body of mine. ;)
Every time I think she can't possibly be any cuter when she's sleeping she proves me wrong!
Gotta love those pig slippers, that's mommas girl! Though I may be the only one to openly admit it, I don't think I am the only one who enjoys watching baby Maggie. ;)

Travis always says that he hates his smile so his doesn't like to smile in pictures. However I love when someone catches him by surprise, because I don't think he could possibly be any more handsome!

Jayden's big cousins Justin and Jacob got new skateboards for Christmas so they were showing her how it was done. Then Trav wanted to show off for his girls a little too. Who knew I married such a stud! ;)



We had so much fun at Grandma and papa's house. When we weren't with them Jayden was asking for them constantly and not to mention following them around the house. On Christmas day Dad had left to take great Grandma back to Circle and while he was gone I was trying to get Jayden to go to bed. Then he walked in the door and Jayden heard him all the way back in my room and said papa papa, I then knew it would be pointless trying to get her to go to sleep! ;)
Jayden flirting with her Uncle Jeremy.



We went over to great Grandma and Grandpa Bishops house while we were in town. Jayden had fun playing with her cousin Kaylee, then of course had to eat all the goodies out of great Grandma's dish, ;) If we ever lose Jayden there is always a great chance that she is where the food is... that's my girl! haha




I got to see my bff Carli and her daughter Hannah that was fun. Never for long enough though!

Jayden found Grandma's rollers. ;)
Early christmas with Travs family. It was fun watching all the kids together. We got Jayden a bowling set for christmas. I don't think she gets it 100% she likes to just kick them all over and then throw the pins in her basketball hoop. I suppose it is just as fun of a game to play.

Travis's brother Miles and his wife Kim. The parents of the other three adorable kids!


Our family pictures.

And well we were doing that little miss lazy bones was taking a nap. Or maybe just enjoying a little break from Jayden. haha

She also got her first big girl haircut a couple days ago. She did really good to, she sat on Daddys lap and played with toys. She looks like such a big girl now... I'm not sure how I feel about that.



Today we painted jaydens fingernails all pretty, I had to bribe her with a candy cane. ;)
