4th of July






We spent the 4th at Papa & Grandma's house. G-ma and G-pa Weigel came to town as well as my Aunt and Uncle and their family. Dad grilled some awesome food, we enjoyed the swimming pool, then watched fireworks before the night was over. Hannah and Wyatt didn't care so much for the loud noise of the fireworks, so I spent that part of the evening inside. We had a good time!

Hannah's Weekend at Papa & Grandma's












Hannah got to stay w/Papa and Grandma while we were in the hospital. I don't think she was very excited to come home after all the fun stuff she did with them. Papa took her to "Pump it Up" where she went down the big slide all by herself. She got to go out to eat, build Wyatt a new Build-a-Bear named Bearamy, go swimming, and help Grandma w/all the fun chores around the house.

Newest Edition





So a lot has happened since my last blog..I'm very slow at keeping this updated! Hopefully I'll be quicker now. Most importantly, Brady and I had a new little boy June 20th. "Wyatt Halston" 7ibs 13oz. Hannah is extremely happy to be a big sister. She has a lot of new duties like helping w/diaper changes and getting his pacifier. She's an awesome little helper. Brady and I are trying to adjust now to very little sleep. Wyatt thinks he needs to eat everytime he's awake and every 2 hours at night, but we're doing just fine. We feel so lucky and blessed to have a new healthy baby in our family!

83rd Birthday Party






Grandpa Cross celebrated his 83rd birthday party the other night. We were fortunate to have most of the family together, including dad and his 2 brothers. Grandpa was blessed to have a night back at home, since he now lives in an assisted living facility. Hannah also got to have some playtime w/her 2nd cousin Malakai, who was visiting from Texas. I think she spent most of the evening practicing to be a big sister.

Mother's Day






Had a great Mother's Day this year...It's amazing how the meaning of the day changes when you actually have a little one to hug you and say "Happy Mother's Day!" That's the best feeling ever. We spent most of the afternoon at Brady's parents w/his G-ma and G-pa from Oklahoma. Hannah and Kamden had a blast on the 4 wheelers, even though they got stuck quite a few times. Poppy taught some of his baseball skills, then all the kids thought Brandi needed to wrestle a little bit......just a great day!!

Out of the Ordinary






So here I am, out of my comfort zone trying something new. My sister-in-law introduced me to the whole world of blogging, so I thought I would give it a try. Scrap-booking, keeping up w/photo albums and baby books just hasn't been my thing. Since we have a brand new baby boy on the way in June, maybe I can keep track of the mile-stones a little better. For my first entry I thought I'd share pictures of the most precious person in my world. These are photos taken by my sister-in-law, Brandi, a woman of many talents!! I thought she did an awesome job!!
