Growing, growing, growing - The Little Girls are getting so Big!

Daddy and little sister

Adaline wanted to get in on the action

"Cheese" This is what Adaline now says when she want's her picture taken.  Can you see it in her mouth?

Cordelia is now 12 pounds and growing everyday

Adaline loves to sit in Cordelia's bouncing chair

It was so hilarious the first time she did it

Cordelia is now starting to smile and I was able to capture it on camera

"Look, mommy, I'm smiling!"

Tummy time

Hi mommy, I love you!

Sleeping and growing

Adaline put my head band on Cordelia's head like a crown.... so cute that I had to take a picture

Then Adaline put it on her head and it was so cute to see her getting all dolled up and girly

Sisters

Cordelia just chilling

Grandma Kathy made Cordelia this super cute blanket out of Strawberry Short Cake, the old school Strawberry Short Cake, and I love it.

Adaline and Cordelia

What a toothy grin from little girl

Little sister is wondering what Adaline is laughing at.

Hi mom!

Ahh, Mommy, are still taking my picture?

I love watching my girls grow each day. It is amazing how smart and amazing they are. I love to watch Adaline discover new things and try to figure out how things around her work. I love to see the girls together. Adaline loves her little sister and she gives her kisses all day long. Cordelia watches Adaline and everything she does, I can tell she can't wait to join Adaline in all of her adventures. I love that they have a sister to play with. I loved growing up with sisters and they are now my best friends. I love each of them so much.

Getting Ready for Thanksgiving

 So in getting ready for Thanksgiving, Mischa came over to help out with the girls while I did some of the necessary cooking prep for the big day. Well while rolling out the traditional Thanksgiving noodles, I forgot about the batch of bread I left in the bread maker....well when we remembered that it was in there and I went to get it, the bread had risen so high that it over flowed the bucket and went all over the bread maker and side. You can see what mess it made.

Can you tell I have been busy slaving away all day over food for the holidays and now this mess what else could happen.... oops shouldn't have said that!

Cordelia's Baby Blessing Weekend - November 9-10, 2013

Cordelia was blessed on November 10, 2013 at the Santaquin 5th Ward's Sacrament Meeting. On Saturday before the blessing, Grandpa and Grandma Brewer, along with Aunt Bridgette, Brindy, Kaely, and Brecken came to visit us for the weekend. We were so excited to see them arrive safely from Arizona and we all had a wonderful time together over the weekend.

It was so fun to have Bridgette and the girls come visit with mom and dad. Cory and I both were so excited to meet Brecken for the first time and we loved every minute of having family around us for the weekend. We are so grateful for the gospel of Jesus Christ and that we are able to bless our children with the power of the priesthood. To bless them with gifts and promises from our loving Heavenly Father. I am grateful for my husband who lives worthy to exercise that priesthood power in our home and on behalf of our children. I am thankful for a loving family who sacrifice to be to special occasions. We know that all of our family would have wanted to be here and we missed each person who was unable to come and spend this wonderful weekend with us. We look forward to the time in the future when we get to be around our family, friend, and cousins, to create more memories and enjoy the blessing of family.

Cory and I are so grateful that Heavenly Father has sent us this incredible little girl to join our family. Cordelia is a joy and a pleasure. Her older sister, Adaline, loves to kiss her and I know some day they are going to be close and loving sisters and friends. I love my family and express gratitude for each day I am given with them.
