Remi is one month old

Remi turned one month old on May 13th. We took her to the doctor's today for her check up.

She weighs 10lbs and 7oz. She is in the 90th percentile in weight.

She is 21in which puts her in the 75th percentile in height. Our doctor said

she is one health baby. Way to go Remi!!!!

Life is Perfect

My talented sister Nichole took these beautiful pictures

of my girls. Thank you Nichole. I love them and I love you.

I love having two girls they have been such a blessing

in our lives. Taylee is a big help. She loves to help dress her

and get me the diapers and wipes. The way Taylee looks at Remi is priceless.

I just hope they can always get along. Mothers Day was so awesome watching my family

together. It is just us out here in Arizona and I love how we have grown as one. Life really is perfect.

Remi Mae is here!!!

From the time I was 30 weeks my doctor told me I was probably going to have a big baby so we started talking about being induced a week early. May 12th was the day I was scheduled to have our baby. My family flew out and I was so excited to see them. That morning was very relaxing. My sisters, my mom and I went swimming and then we spent the rest of the day visiting. I wasn't scheduled until nine that night so we had a lot of time to spare. When we got to the hospital I was so nervous and excited. I asked for my mom, Nichole and Makale to be in the room with Brady and I. Shalee was so nice and volunteered to stay behind to watch Maddex and Taylee. They hooked me up to all the machines after that the action began. I waited until I was dilated to a five before I asked for an epidural. A few hours after that I was dilated to a ten and ready to push. I only had to push for 15 min and our little angle was here. My labor was a total of six hours. So much nicer than it was with Taylee. Remi Mae was born at 3:24 am on April 13th. She weighed 8 lbs 7oz and was 21" long. If I would have waited for her to come on her own could you imagine how much she would of weighed. We are so happy she is here and healthy. Thank you family for sharing our special day with us.

Waiting for the big show:)

SISTERS

I was so lucky to have my whole family come to our home to meet Remi for the first time. It was really hard to say good-bye. Thanks for all your help. I love you.

Best Friends all ready.

I think Taylee is so excited to be a big sister. She loves

to hold Remi and give her lots of kisses. Brady and I are so

proud of our family. It is so fun watching our two

gorgeous girls together. Life is so perfect.

Brady's parents were able to come out and it was great to have the come and see Remi and Taylee and help us out.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Here is a little update for those who don't know what's been going on with us. First off Brady got a promotion. We are so proud of him and all his hard work. His new position moved our little family to Mesa Arizona. He is working in Phoenix. We are really enjoying it here. Second, we are adding another baby girl to our family in April and are very excited about that.

CHRISTMAS EVE

For Christmas Eve we went to the Mesa Temple to see the lights.

Taylee was so excited to see all the pretty lights I thought she was

going to jump right out of her stroller. It was so peaceful walking around the temple

and seeing everything. When we got home we opened up our Christmas Eve pj's, watched "The Muppet Christmas Carol" and then went to bed.

CHRISTMAS MORNING



Christmas day was awesome. Taylee got up around six in

the morning and I thought for sure we would just put her in

our bed and go back to sleep for a little bit, but Brady was so excited

he wanted to start opening presents. Santa sure did a great job this year.

Taylee got a Buggy car, a pillow pet, coloring book, shoes, blocks, and clothes.

Of course Nana and Papa Fitzgerald spoiled her and Grandma and Grandpa Mitchell did too.

After we opened presents Brady and I made a huge breakfast.

There was way to much for three people, but it was so good.

The weather was beautiful so as soon as Brady was done putting

Taylee's new car together we took it outside for a little ride. Taylee

had a ball. We played catch as a family then went inside for a nap.

We really missed our family, but overall Christmas this year was awesome.

MERRY CHRISTMAS we love and miss you all:)

Taylee's first birthday!!!

This is Taylee telling how old she is.

Pulling a super funny face.

Look how cute my nephew is :)

Look how much Maddex loves me ;) Being an aunt

is one of the best things ever!

Taylee turned one on May 25th. We were able to go to Brady's family

and mine for her birthday so it ended up being a fun little vacation. My sister Nichole and her family got to come celebrate Taylee's special day. It was so fun decorating my moms home for the party and seeing all the kids play and have a great time together. Watching Taylee eat her cake was very funny. She really didn't know what to do until Brady gave her a little taste. She dived right in and enjoyed every minute of it. Brady and I sure did love seeing how big our baby girl is getting. We went down memory lane of when she was born and how amazing that day was. And now she is one year old. How time flies. I am so very thankful for my whole family. Thank you for always showing us your support.

News

Taylee sure does love her new cousin Maddex.

My handsome nephew was born on Feb. 26

It was so exciting because I got to be there to experience his birth. My sister Nichole

was amazing. For having a baby natural she was so calm. Maddex is a great baby. He hardly cries and he smiles all the time. It was so hard to say goodbye. Congrats to Nichole's family. He is perfect just like the rest of you.

Here is a small update on Taylee.

She is now walking and getting into everything.

She loves to try to have conversations with people.

Taylee always wants to talk on the phone and she loves to play

dress up in mine and Brady's clothes.

Taylee turned one on May 25. I have a lot of cute pictures that

I will post a little later.

A little bump in the road

A little while ago my sister Nichole went to the hospital with kidney stones. They gave her stuff for the pain, but it never went away. They decided to operate. Nichole and her baby are fine, but she has to go back to the doctors to make sure everything is still okay. I would like to ask if everyone could say a little prayer for Nichole and my nephew. Thank you
