Alexys' blessing

Our baby girl was blessed today...so many emotions were running through me by the end of Sacrament Meeting I had cried nearly all of my make-up off. Tim did a wonderful job and the spirit was so strong. Alexys looked absolutely beautiful and I was so grateful that she stayed asleep and didn't cry during the blessing (that's been my worst fear). We had a nice lunch afterward with lots of friends and family. I'm so grateful for this precious little girl. She's so much fun...and her family loves her a lot.

The Wood Family

I got to do another fun photo shoot...this is my friend Corey and her cute family. She asked me to take pics for her so she could do her Christmas cards and of course I couldn't pass up the opportunity to go take pics. I just can't seem to get enough of it :) We had lots of fun....What a cute family!!

Alexa....not to be confused with Alexys

One of my daycare parents asked me to do a little photo shoot of her and her children. We had so much fun!! I've still got a little editing to do, but had to post pics of little Alexa, isn't she cute!! I'll post other pics soon...I just had to share.

change...

I can't believe that my baby girl is already 3 1/2 weeks old! Time flies by so quickly and life is so busy that I'm just trying to take advantage of every second that I can to snuggle my little princess.

Having a baby around again has proved to be a bit of an adjustment....but I think that we're all adjusting well. Alexys slept through the night for the first time at 3 weeks old (yeah, I know I'm spoiled). She's a good natured little girl but likes to be held a lot. Which has made it a little hard for me to get anything done but the boys are all good to help out with her when I need her to be held. She smiled for the first time at 2 1/2 weeks. And if she smiles just right, you can see some cute little dimples (just like her momma when she was little). She's been so much fun, I could just hold her and snuggle her all the time. Tim has loved cuddling with her too and has been a great help to me. He's always anxious to get home from work so he can hold his little girl. The boys are so good to her, running and giving her a binki as soon as she lets out a little cry. (I know this is going to cause nothing but trouble, but it's so cute) They call her a squeeky toy because she squeeks a lot. It's amazing to me that we have 4 children, we have a wonderful home in a great community, Tim and I both have great jobs and (knock on wood) we are all healthy. Our family has been so blessed. Now if I can just slow down time or just stop things from changing so quickly....

Happy Halloween!

Halloween was lots of fun this year! Filled with visiting grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and a trunk-or-treat in Richmond. We ended our night with three extremely full buckets of candy and three really happy little boys (and a baby sister that was ready to be done with it all). Happy Halloween!!

I had to get Alexys an outfit to match her cute bow my friend made for her. Doesn't she look cute?
