We have been busy













November and December have just flown by in our house. Pretty much all of November we had family in town and it was so much fun!! My sister Tiffany come into town so that Kraig could go out of town for one of our very good friends wedding. She helped me get so many things done including putting up all my Christmas deco. Then she left and I got stupid mastitis. But my wonderful mom came 2 days later for 10 days! Then two days after that my step dad came, then the next day my brother Ryan came! We had a blast having Thanksgiving at your house this year with them. All the thanks to my mom  who pretty much cooked everything! She is an AMAZING cook!! Then the day after Thanksgiving my brother Mike and his wife Bekah came for Sydney's Blessing. Kraig gave our baby girl such a beautiful blessing! I am so grateful for a husband who honors his priesthood and is worthy to bless our sweet baby. It was such a beautiful day. And big thanks to my mother in law for letting us have a dinner get together over there after. I was sad to have everyone go and my house felt so quite when Kraig went to work and it was just Sydney and I at home. Boy it takes a lot longer to get stuff done  with out those extra hands helping  you.I got mastitis again the first week of December!! Ugh that crap sucks! I went back to work at Ulta for 2 days a week the second week of December. It was a really hard week for me! But I do love my job and clients and I am only working 5 hrs each day so it is not too bad. Also, the extra money is a big help too!! We also celebrated our 5 yr wedding anniversary this month. I can't believe  how fast the time has gone. I have such a wonderful husband and I am so blessed to have him in my life. He is a great father and is always there to help me anytime I need him. I am so thankful for all of his hard work so that I only have to work 2 days a week and stay home with our baby. Sydney has been such a good baby I really can't complain. She is doing anywhere from 5 to 8 hrs in then night. Even when she does 5 I only have to get up once in the night, which is so nice. The nights she does 8 are  AMAZING!! She is smiling all the time and talking a lot as well. She is even starting to giggle. It is so dang cute!! I love my baby and I love being a mom. It is the best and most rewarding job ever! We are excited to have a baby in our home for Christmas, even though she has no idea what is going on.We hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!
