Momma's Little Helper

Mia is a great little helper. She helps mom with laundry, doing the dishes, and tries to change the channel. It is so nice to have my little buddy around all the time. Having Mia is the best decision of our lives. I love you Miss Mia and Kade!

Valentines Day & 9 Months

Mia is 9 months today! I can't believe that we have been together everyday for 18 months. Time is flying by. I wanted to get a picture of her next to the 9 month sign but she wasn't having that so here is what I ended up getting. Some awesome pictures of her pulling some crazy faces just like her mom. Mia has grown so much in the last 9 months I can't even believe it. She pulls her self up onto furniture walks between them. Stands by herself for a second, thinks she can walk but then falls, feeds herself, likes her "shows", gives mom and dad lots of kisses, has one tooth, loves to pull the dvd's out of the shelf, hates to eat peas, and is her mom and dad's whole world. Mia is a huge blessing in our lives we are so lucky to have this little girl! Great Grandma Copeland also stopped by to see Mia :)



































We had a wonderful Valentines Day. On the Friday before Kade and I went to Red Rooster Waffle Company (thanks to Kacey and Josh for the gift card), its a new restaurant at Jordan Landing. It was really good we loved it. Then we went to see Valentines Day because I am a big nerd and really wanted to see it. I love love Ashton, so hot! Thanks to Rich and Annette for watching our princess while we were away. On Sunday, Valentines day we had fast Sunday so no fun breakfast but we enjoyed our morning hanging out with Miss Mia. The Milliron family sent Mia some presents and this super cute bib was in the package and she looks so cute with it on. Thanks Dawn!!! We went to church and had a wonderful day. I am so lucky to be married to the most loving person in the world, love you baby!

I am cool!

Today after I picked up lunch with my co-worker I looked at down and there it was 111111. I thought this was so awesome so I had to take a picture. I am a huge nerd because little things like this make me happy but its the little things that count right? Have a great weekend :)

1st Tooth

Well it finally happened. Mia's first tooth came in last Sunday February 7. She had been a little fussy but she was also sick so we weren't sure if it is was being sick or the tooth. On Sunday we went to feed her lunch and there it was. You can barely see it here but its the best picture we could get (thanks Misty for taking it). Mia is doing so great. She is moving all over, climbing up on everything and trying to walk. She loves to be in the middle of everything and enjoys entertaining us. We are so blessed to have such a wonderful little spirit in our lives. We love you Mia and are so proud of your accomplishments :)

Car Heart

The last couple of weeks have been a challenge. We have had a lot of change at work and I have been learning to swim and have been working hard at that. As I walked out to my dirty car a little discouraged a couple days ago there was a heart on it from my sweetheart. He always knows how to make my day. He knows I have been stressed and decided to take a few seconds out of his busy morning to make mine better. I love you babe thanks for always thinking of me. You are the best friend I have ever had and I love you so much :)

Mia's First Jazz Game

I couldn't wait to take my Mia to a game any longer, if you know me I am a huge Jazz fan through thick and thin I am always there for them. So we took her on Monday January 25. The Jazz played the Suns and believe it or not they came back to win :) We went early and Mia loved watching the Jazz warm up she just starred down there. Then the game started and she was so good. We could never get a great picture but I like most of the ones we took. Notice Mia is wearing her Jazz outfit, yes she has multiple Jazz attire just like her momma. GO JAZZ and thanks for being awesome Miss Mia :)

Happy Birthday Kade!

Today is Kade's 26 Birthday! I am so grateful for the day he was born, he is the best friend I have ever had and I don't know what I would do without him. Here are 26 reasons why I love him.

7- Pretends to be this mean hard guy but is actually the biggest teddy bear, just like his daddy.

9- Could care less if the kitchen is a mess but if the soap dispenser gets clogged he will spend ten minutes fixing that.

23- Loves babies more than anything and if there are two in the room he will have to have both of them.

25- Can make holes in the middle of M & M's with his tongue.
26- Because he married me!

Happy Birthday Baby!!! I love you :)
