Pinteresting....

very, pinteresting.

This week I tried the Victoria's Secret HAIRSTYLE. Found here, from Maskcara. Seriously LOVED this hair, but I think my hair needs to be a little bit longer, and I really wish it didn't take so freaking long to do this one!



Cinco...

Maxson and Kenley are JUST over 5 months old now. Woot! They are SO much fun at this age! They are smiling, laughing, playing, and talking a ton! (baby talk... not real talk) SO much fun!

appointments:
We didnt really have any appointments this month. BUT one of the perks of being your pediatrican's daughter is that you can have your children weighed every month. A little overboard maybe? When Max and Kenley were first born they dropped below their birth weight really fast and kind of took a while to gain weight. They were both in the 4 lbs' when we brought them home. (remember Maxson was 5.07 and Kenley was 5 even when they were born.) So we were really watching how much they were eating and how much weight they were gaining. I got in the habit of going WEEKLY to weigh them. Finally Dr. J had to tell me NO we are not going to go to the office and weigh them! So now I am limited to monthly. :) And I am ok with that. I like knowing how much they weigh.
Maxson- 15lbs 13 oz
Kenley- 13lbs

milestones:
Max is laughing so much more now! It makes me SO happy to hear his big laugh.
Max is wearing 6-9 mo. clothes. He is a cubby babe.
Max gets really scared when people do weird voices or noises. He gets the saddest look on his face and works himself up to a big cry! Breaks my heart, but it is SO cute it is hard to not laugh.
Kenley is starting to talk a lot more! This little girl loves to play in the bouncer and just laugh and talk to herself!
Kenley ROLLS over!!! YAY! well she has only done it a handful of times, but I am one proud mama!
Kenley is picky of who holds her! Of course she loves mom and dad. And Aunt Hilary, and Grandma and Grandpa. But she is a little leery of my brothers haha, and strangers!
The babes are now eating BABY FOOD! Just once a day. This week we are going to try twice a day after their bottles, but we will see how it goes today. Max is really getting the hang of it. Kenley just spits it out. I dont think she was quite ready, but I really have been trying to keep them on the same schedule and eating habits. Makes my life so much easier!

mom and dad:
Eric and I have just been enjoying our little family! We have been super busy. Taylor and Hilary moved their wedding up to March! So Hilary, My mom and I have been so busy planning, getting ideas and figuring everything out, and I feel like between the wedding and the babies, Eric has been neglected. I really want to do something special for him for Valentine's day to show him he is still my numero uno. I have an idea of what to do. BUT he will most likely read this so I cannot tell you yet. BUT when it happens you will know. :)
PS we are SO excited to have Hilary in our family! She is perfect for Taylor and fits right in. I am sure we drive her nuts sometimes, but we LOVE her. She has such a strong testimony of the Gospel and she is so sweet and I seriously am SO excited. :) LOVE you Hil.

2mo....3mo....4mo....and 5mo! SO fun to see how much they have changed!

Pinteresting... Crib Sheet



This week I decided to finish making crib sheets! I started this project in December and finished this week yay! I found a great and SUPER easy crib sheet tutorial HERE from Dana Made It. SO easy you guys! I thought this was going to be such a huge project! I made 2 sheets for Maxson and 2 for Keneley!

Cute right!?

And then....


so obsessed with Chevron right now!

2012

2012 is BOUND to be the best year yet! We are looking forward to SO many things!
a. We are going to the Jazz vs. Clippers game on Jan. 17th! WOOT WOOT! So in case you didn't know I think the Clippers are the most pointless team in the NBA. They are basically the b team of LA., (note: DO NOT LIKE THE LAKERS IN ANYWAY SHAPE OR FORM.) They dont even have their own stadium! The Lakers have to share the Staples Center with the Clippers. The ONLY reason the Clippers are even SEMI good, is because the got the first pick with Blake Griffin. And then somehow this year they were able to get CP3 (Chris Paul). The only reason we are going to this game is because I am the best wife ever! Eric is really excited that CP3 and Blake will be playing on the same team! (even tho he is a die hard Bulls fan...) So, knowing how much Eric wanted to go to a Clippers game, I gave him [and myself] Tickets for Christmas! I am excited to see the Jazz (even tho they are NOT looking very good this year). NOT the Clippers.
b. MY 25th BIRTHDAY is this month! HOLY MOLY I will be a quarter of a century old. I always thought 25 year old were so OLD. But I don't think that anymore. :)
c. My friend Ashley is due with her baby girl, Harper in MARCH! I cannot wait to meet this little bean! Both of her parents are beautiful and I just KNOW she will be the most beautiful baby! And with Ashley as her mom she is going to be such a sweetie!
d. My friend Brittney is due with her baby BOY, Miles in the beginning of April! :) FINALLY Maxson will have a friend! Girls are being born all over the place! It will be fun to watch Adam and Brittney be the best parents!
e. My oldest friend Kourtney and her hubby are having their baby girl at the end of April! I love this little baby so much! I cannot wait for her arrival. Kourtney and I have been friends since Elementary school, we have been through so much together and have been able to watch/help each other become great women. :) I am so excited that we will have kiddos the same age! They will be moving sometime this Summer for Medical School! Woot Woot! But I am already so sad about this. I LOVE these guy so much!
f. We are adding another member to our family! (NO I AM NOT PREGO) I am finally getting a SISTER! Taylor and Hilary are getting married in May! Seriously couldnt not be happier for these two! Hilary is such an amazing woman and I love her! I am so excited for this event!
h. My friend Jessi is getting married at the end of May! So happy for her and Chris! They are such a great couple!
i. MEMORIAL Day weekend in VEGAS! Our first big trip away from home with the babies! Looking forward to spending time with family!
j. Maxson and Kenley will turn 1 yr old. In August.
k. Eric and I will be married for 3 yrs in August too!
So far that is really all the things we know FOR SURE!
Looks pretty good so far.
ALSO here are goals for 2012.
Personal: Become closer to each member in my family. (Massey and Jensen)
Spiritual: Read and study the Doctrine and Covenants.
Educational: Read at least ONE book a month. THANKS BOOK CLUB!
Physical: Run 2-3 Half Marathons. (already registered for 2! One in April and one in October.)
Financial: Budget better. Cliche right?? BUT I have been working on this since right before the babes were born and I would really like to be better at it! It is so nice to know exactly how much money we have at any point!
