January

A new year and a fresh start. One of my resolutions for this year is to be better about taking pictures and blogging about the happenings of each month. While I didn't take many pictures, I am blogging.... baby steps I guess.


Aiden started the year by attending Primary as the youngest Sunbeam. I thought that he would love it, but boy was I wrong. For the first three weeks he just cried that he wanted pretzels and treats. I am sure me being up in primary has not helped the situation. I think he has adjusted and likes being a big boy.

Aiden on his first day of Primary!

These two hooligans keep me hopping. Shelby thinks Aiden knows it all and does absolutely everything he does. Aiden dictates whether Shelby takes a nap, whether she will eat her food, and just about everything else. Everytime we walk out of the door, someone comments on how much they look alike. It is funny. We just cut Aiden's hair and Shelby's is starting to grow so maybe we won't get as many comments. If I don't have that girl decked out in pink and a bow in her hair most people think she is a boy.

And the most exciting news of all is that Shelby finally has a room! If you remember about 6 months ago I told you we were starting this project by spliting our master bedroom in half. Our two week project was grossly underestimated. Somehow Tyler managed to squeeze in framing and drywalling into his crazy schedule. Little does he know, we have only just begun. He is teaching me how to do it all and tells me that I am doing the rest of the house all by myself. But if any of you know Tyler, I son't think he would be able to let me do it. Unless it is perfect he wants to rip it down and start over, and he knows that I produce andything but perfect work. Anyway, here it is. I know it is a little loud and crazy so you may want to get some sunglasses before you scroll down.

Up next, our master bedroom. Tyler is rested up and ready to go. Hopefully it will be finished this month and you will see the masterpiece next month!
