Londyn's Blessing

Our sweet and full of smiles Londyn was blessed July 1. It was beautiful. She was beautiful. I can't believe what a sweet, sweet, spirit she has. I can't get enough of her. She smiles any time she looks at you. She sleeps like an angel. I am starting to realize how "spirited" my other two really were/are. Londyn is so content. I kiss her constantly. I can't even describe the love I have her. She never cries. She just squirms and lets out a little noise. She sleeps every night until at least 5 am. How was I so lucky. Not to mention, she is the most beautiful baby. I love her with all my heart. I can't wait to watch her grow and learn. There really is something so special about her. I can't put it into words. I love you dear Londyn, we all do. You have brought such a sweet, calming and content feeling into our home. Thank you!!!
I will never forgive myself... These are the only pictures I have from her special day. It was wonderful. We had many people with us to help celebrate. All the Grandparents, Uncle Alan, Aunt Mary, April, Lindsay, and cousins James, Nate and Jen and their children. It was a wonderful day for a very special baby. As many of you know Londyn is named after my Pioneer Ancestors (The Whites) who came here from England. As I read of their faith it amazes me. It is a honor to know she was named after such amazing people. I think of them often. I am overwhelmed with gratitude for all they did and how it has affected my life. I don't know where I would be with out the gospel. They converted, left everything they had, came to America, crossed the plains, and started over in Utah. Not once did they question their faith. I have a whole book full of their journals and stories. As I read their stories I am touched by they many miracles they experienced through their hard ships. It truly is humbling to read. Sweet Londyn White is very deserving of her name. We knew it was going to be her name long before she was born. Nothing even compared. Now that she is here, I know even more it was the right choice. She is amazing and so special. I love you sweet girl!

What Would Summer Be With Out Wasps?!?!?

Literally minutes before the sting I was telling people how Liam has been stung MULTIPLE times. I was shocked nothing had happened yet this summer.  What are the odds he comes up to me screaming with this?!?!?
The next morning he woke up and it was big. Josh and I were telling him we were sorry that happened. He then told us not to be sorry, he really liked the way it looked. He thought he looked cool and perhaps needed a pirate patch...

Layla's "Big Day"

Layla could hardly wait for her surgery... Sounds strange I know. It was just having her adenoids removed. So a pretty small procedure. The Dr. gave us a book to read that would explain to her how everything was going to work. Ohhh how she loved it. She was going to get special PJ's, to wake up early that morning and go to the hospital with just Mommy and Daddy. They were going to give her yummy juice and she was going to get to wear a funny mask to help her sleep. She took the story to church with her and everything. I didn't want to make it dramatic I would prefer her being ok with it rather then scared. Well the morning arrived and she was excited. Everything went smoothly. Until it was time for her to wake up. The poor girl was screaming and crying she had no idea what was going on. I felt awful! Once she calmed down she was fine but I felt really guilty. If you ask her how her surgery was here will be her response, "I had surgery... I thought it was going to be fun but it wasn't. They put a funny mask on that made me cry!" (she doesn't realize the mask put her to sleep and she then had the surgery). As for the surgery, it was soooo worth it. Guess who has slept through the night for the last two weeks, every night but once... LAYLA! It is a miracle. She still doesn't like going to bed but I am sure that is the case for most three year olds. Once she is asleep, she is a angel. Not to mention she sleeps in! With all this extra sleep you can imagine how much happier our little girl is. I just adore her. She is so sweet and so, so, so special!

Swim Suit Edition

My good friend, Trisha got Londyn this swim suit. I look forward to every opportunity she has to wear it.

Sit Back, Relax, and Enoy Summer

Sometimes I like just watching my kids with out saying anything. It is fun trying to figure out what they are thinking. I watched Liam fold out his chair, go get his sun glasses and a bottle water. He then just sat there like this with a smile. I love this kid as much as he loves life <3
