There has been a lot going on with us the past 7 months or so. For a while I was working at JCPenney Portrait Studio in South Jordan as a photographer. I really liked my job and the people I worked with and it seemed like everyone liked me as well (I even got requests by name. It made me feel really good!). But, I had to quit a few weeks ago. Between school (did I mention I'm back in school full time - starting my photography degree from the begginning??? Long story on that one..) and being a mommy, and trying to get my own photography business up and running, I just couldn't swing the Pennies gig anymore.
Nathan has been working part time in the hardware department. We're still looking for something higher paying and with full time hours but for now this is at least helping us pay the bills and get out and do something when we need to get out of the house for some quality family time. He's been asked if he would be interested in a promotion into management over his department, so we're hoping that works out and soon.
Madison just turned FIVE. Im still not sure I believe it. My baby girl is 5 years old! We threw her a Candy Land themed party for all of her friends in her church class (and her cousin Kyha since she's the same age). The party was really cute with the decorations and all - but next year I'm totally just blowing up a bunch of balloons, giving them each a cookie, and calling it a day! That's pretty much what they'll enjoy the most anyways.
Katelyn is my little stinker child. We have FINALLY gotten her potty trained even though she's stubborn and just didn't want to. Unfortunately she still sucks on her fingers and twirls her hair so at least twice a day I have to get huge knots out of her hair. She is really becoming such a big girl though with such a big imagination. And with that imagination comes the hilarity. Here - see for yourself: (warning - this is 15 mins of just randomness. Plus she was very sick when I shot this so she's a little out of it).
Allyson is 8 months old. Almost 9. When did this happen??? She's getting so big so fast and I'm trying to soak it all up as much as I can. I miss her being super tiny, but she's also at a really fun age right now. She's almost mastered sitting up by herself and she's started army crawling! When she's angry, she lets out a screeching scream that the whole city of Herriman can hear. Okay not the whole city, but I was outside the house taking pictures one day and I could hear her while she was inside. That's some loud screaming!
These days we're all sick or recovering from being sick, so I dont know how fun and exciting our week is going to be. Maybe tomorrow I'll do an entire post of photo's of the past few months so you all can see.
Til then - I guess I'll go to sleep?
