Weekend With Nanna

Chris went to D.C. for five days this past weekend to a neuroscience conference. He got to present a poster of his professor's research that he had helped on (he got to be a co-author! go chris!) But this left Bailey and I alone for 5 long days! But nanna and uncle Isaac came down to keep us company for a few of the days:) We had lots of fun hanging out and going to the Sacramento Zoo. Many thanks to them for making the trip here to keep Bailey and I company!

A Trip Down Memory Lane...

It's the time of year to reflect on the past year and it got me thinking about how fast time goes. It has been an eventful year having a baby and it has changed our lives forever! I am so grateful for family and all our blessings. So I made a slideshow reminiscing about life. It starts with a younger Chris and I and goes through some eventful times of our lives and finally our little girl and her past 8 months of life. (put your mouse on the picture to get a caption)

TAGGED!

I got tagged by Katy! And dangit it was so hard to come up with 7 random things about me because i'm always just focused on Bailey. But after pondering for a bit I realized how random and weird I actually am...especially after having a baby. So here they are...ENJOY!

1. I wouldn't call myself a crude person, but sometimes I LOVE to say things like, "I got up at the butt crack of dawn this morning" or "crap, where did bailey put my keys?" or even "her hott body really pisses me off"

2. I am a freak about random things..like when I am at home feeding bailey a meal, I have to match the spoon with the bowl and cup. (i know this is totally unnecessary, but i do anyways) like--her pastel green spoon can't go with the bright orange bowl. haha oh man..get a life dev...

3. i hate spiders..always have and always will

4. i am not an extreme shopper anymore (cause since marriage and a baby there has been no money to be a shopper) but i'm absolutely obsessed with GAP and OLD NAVY (baby clothes) clearance. They have the best clearance--especially if you wait long enough for the things you want. Ask Jo Lynn..I think I get something there like every week for Bailey and yet it's so cheap that how could I not?

5. (you'll love this one, amber) I've never told anyone this excpet amber, but i have secretly always wanted to go clubbing. I know that it's wrong or whatever and not something a sweet mormon mom should want to aspire to do but..i do! I got married at 18 and never got the chance! So chris promised me that someday we'll go together and get down and dirty. :)

6. I still wear clothes from highschool. (or at least the few that still fit!) i don;t shop for myself that much anymore. I get some new things here and there..good deals, christmas, birthday, etc. but i was going through my clothes one day and chris was like "wasn't that from when we first dated?" yeah...we "first dated" like over 5 yeas ago...haha time to throw THAT away..embarressing...

7. I always try to sound smart and use like big vocab words (especially talking to chris) and always end up using them wrong and sounding like an idiot instead.

ok that's it! Now I have to tag 7 more people and I choose" AMBER, JO LYNN, LANI, DANIELLE, KATY, STACY, and JESS
