Paityns Blessing Dress

Today was such a great day for us. We decided to ask my dad if he would bless Paityn. He said the most beautiful blessing I have ever heard. I'm so glad we decided to ask him because I don't think anyone could have said it any better. I'm so grateful for Paityn and we love her very much! She looked so beautiful in her white dress! I'm suprised at how quiet she was too cuz once she was taken up infront of everyone I realized I had her binki lol. She is such a good baby so I don't know why I was a little worried. I'm so glad we decided to have her blessed because there is nothing more special then knowing your little one is being watched over and taken care of. I know Paityn will grow up and be such a wonderful person I just hope it's not too soon. I look forward to growing with her as a mother and a friend, but for now I'm enjoying every second I am with her! I love her smile that she gives first thing in the morning as I lean over her bed and say "it's a beautiful morning". I love her laugh when she watches the dogs play. I love watching how loving and gentle Brady is with her and how when she is with him it's like there is no one else in the room. I just love being a mom and I don't think there is anything greater then being a mother and a wife. I just want Brady and Paityn to know how much I love them and how blessed I am to have both of them!!!

Paityn 3 months

So I can't believe I have been a mom for 3 months already. Paityn is changing so much and seems to be growing so fast. She weighs about 13.5 lbs and just looks so different! She is absolutely beautiful and I'm so glad I was blessed to have her in my life! She giggled for the first time last week and it was the greatest sound. She was giggling at the dogs playing, it was so funny and I'm glad both Brady and I were around to hear it! She has definitly discovered her hands, I call them her popsicles because they are always cold no matter what I do and she is constantly sucking on them. She is such a funny baby! Here are some pictures we had done for her 3 months. This Christmas is going to be so special, I can't wait until Christmas is here! Holidays are so much more fun when you have kids!!

I haven't posted things for a while so I thought I would just give a little update. Brady and I have been married for 1 month now and things are awsome. I love being a wife and a mother!! I'm still getting used to mail coming to Natalie Hughes instead of Leetham but I love the change ha ha. Paityn is growing up fast too, she will be 3 months on Nov. 25. She weighed 11 pounds at her 2 month appointment and is already 23 inches long. I can't believe how much she has changed in such a short period of time. Brady says he can't wait for her to grow up a little and be able to talk and walk but I love this period in life. She is just figuring out how to giggle and she smiles about everything. She is such a happy baby. I still can't believe we were blessed with something so precious. She is definitly our everything and we love her more then life itself. Here are a few pictures of how much she has changed.

I couldn't believe the day was finally here! I am so grateful that I get to share the rest of my life with such a wonderful husband and father. Brady is so great and I can't picture my life without him in it. We were married on October 15, 2009 and it was fabulous! It was exactly the way I had pictured it. Here are a few pictures from the wedding!

Our Family








Wow it's already been 6 weeks since our baby girl was born. I can't believe how fast time has gone, Paityn has already changed so much but one thing that hasn't changed is she is still a clone of her dad. They look alike, they even sleep alike, both with their hands over their eyes to shield them from the light to help then sleep longer! Paityn is so much fun, she is finally getting some sort of schedule together so she sleeps most the night which is nice for me cuz the more she sleeps, the happier she is then the happier I am. I'm not sure if the saying "if mommas happy then everyones happy" is true. It's more like "if baby is happy then everyone is happy!" She is such a blessing in our lives and we are truely glad she is here. We love her very much and are so grateful to have her in our lives!!
