i LOVE coupon sense

Why? Because we got ALL of this for $77.12! We went to Fry's (my new fav. store) and spent $77.12 and saved $128.39. Woo Hoo. Pretty good eh? Yeah we are proud of ourselves. We would have saved even more but they were out of a few things... I got two packages of diapers and a package of wipes for $2.49 a piece... 6 bags of veggies for free... 16 lbs. of hamburger... and the list goes on. I feel like it is my job to find ways to save us money any way I can, and went I do I feel pretty good. And of course it makes Dev happy to know that I can save all this money... and when Dev is happy we are all happy!
Coupon Sense is so easy, and so worth it. I highly recommend it! Plus it is a good way to get a start on your year supply :)

Anyway... just thought I'd brag a little :)

pics.

Nothing new here... just wanted to share some pictures of the boys... they're kind of adorable.



Treyden smiling at Dev... he smiles so much now.


I actually got Deagan to smile a little bit for me... OK there might have been a little bit of bribing, but it worked :)




Can't get enough of that smile :)



They are both getting so big. I cannot even believe that Treyden will be three months tomorrow. Where does the time go? A three year old and a three month old. Crazy. They are so much fun, and they definitely keep us busy. We love it though.

.three WONDERFUL years.


Three years ago today I married my best friend. These three years have been the hardest and best years of my life. I cannot believe how quickly it has gone. We have done and accomplished a lot in these three, short years. We have moved five times, had two kids, bought a car, bought a dog, bought a house, Dev became an apprentice, bought a truck and I am sure there are more that I am forgetting but anyway. There are still a lot of things we want to get done. The most important one being our Sealing in the Temple. I am ashamed to say it hasn't happened yet.

The first year of our marriage was probably the hardest. Especially for Dev, he had school all day and work all night. We really didn't see much of each other. And I was a brand new mom. We made it through though and look where it has gotten us! He has a fantastic job that he LOVES and I am so glad he does. He works hard so that I don't have too, and I will forever be appreciative for that. I love being home with our boys, and doing the things that mothers and wives do.

We never forget to thank our Heavenly Father for all he has blessed us with. It amazes me everyday how far we have come. We have two amazing little boys, we all have our health, Dev has a good job, which is especially important during these hard times. We have a roof over our head, food in our bellies and clothes on our back. I am so grateful. I love our sweet, little family and for every second we get to spend together.

It all started out as a little crush in Jr. High... now look where we are.

I love you so much Dev, and I am so grateful for all that you do. You are an amazing husband and father. Happy Anniversary babe. I am looking forward to many many more years with you!

2 1/2 months ALREADY?!

I can't believe this sweet little boy has been in our lives for 2 1/2 months already! It seems like just yesterday we were getting everything ready and anxiously waiting for him to get here. He is the best baby. He hardly ever cries, and if he does it is just because he is hungry. I took him to the dr. on Thursday and he is just under ten pounds... for us that seems huge, ha. It was no surprise that he gained that much since I feel like all I do is feed him... He has the cutest little rolls and round belly. Here are a few things about him at two months..

Loves Bathtime

He has discovered his voice and coos quite a bit... I love it :)

Smiles a lot, it's adorable

HATES tummy time

Goes to bed between 8:30 and 9. Sleeps until 1:30, eats and goes right back to sleep until 4:30 or five and then eats and goes back to sleep until 7:30. I think I have got it pretty easy...

Takes one long nap in the morning and then cat naps all through the afternoon

Loves his bink

Happiest in the morning right after he eats

Loves to look up at the ceiling fans

HATES to be wrapped up tight, has to have his arms free

Loves to nap with his daddy


Now here are some pictures of our sweet boy...



This is the only picture I have of him smiling, I am never fast enough.







We love this little boy and are so grateful to have him in our lives. He is growing up fast, and we are loving every second with him.

Happy Birthday Miss Riley

We just wanted to wish our sweet little Riley a Happy Birthday. We love you and appreciate all that you do for us. You are the best sister and aunt ever. You are so good with the boys, and Deagan loves spending time with you, so thank you for all the times you have taken him for us. Also, thanks for giving us a place to stay while we are in the valley, and for dealing with all our noise and messes everywhere! And of course thank you for letting Dev stay with you for those long nine weeks last year... we still owe you for that. Same time this year?! Haha. We are lucky to have you. We hope you have a fantastic birthday! We love you. See you this weekend.

p.s.
I told Deag it was your birthday and he wants to know what you got him... !?
