I know this may sound crazy... but Leah gave me this sweet award! Thanks Leah!

As a Beautiful Blogger, I must share 7 facts about myself and then pass the award on to 7 other bloggers. So here it goes:

1. This is totally going to gross everyone out but I'm obsessed with sqeezing out black heads. Whether they be mine own or someone elses, I could sit there for hours just molesting someones nose or face. I know. I'm so weird. And gross.

2. I can't look at a mirror in the dark. Ever since someone told me of the stupid "bloody Mary" story I can't even be facing a mirror. If there was a mirror close by, I'd scrunch up the blankets in front of me so it would block it out of my view.

3. I'm obsessed with DIY blogs and craft blogs. I always see all of these things that I want to make or try to do... but usually never end up doing them. Or else they don't turn out right.

4. I am absolutely terrified of public speaking! I hate being the center of attention knowing that all eyes are on me. I freeze up. It scares me to death!

5. I was born at home. On purpose. People think it's so weird when I tell them that, haha.

6. I was either home schooled or went to charter schools up until high school.

7. I'm a certified personal trainer. Most people don't know that because I'm a poor example of one, ha! I need to hit up the gym... bad!

Now I nominate:

1- Katie Garner

2- Tiffany Garlock

3- Shellene Garner

4- Britney Garner

5- Michelle Yamamoto

6- Amanda Lines

7- Danie Whatcott

My baby is growing up way too fast! He's such a little man! Here's some fun things about him:

- When he gets excited, he blows tons of spit bubbles and it's really noisy too. It's the funniest thing.

- Along with the spitting... he drools like a river! His clothes are always soaking. I think I just need to keep a bib on him all the time.

- He recently started standing up. With assistance obviously. I just love when he straightens out his chubby legs and all his cheesey dimples show.

- He's always grabbing his feet and tries to suck his toes.

- He loves looking in the mirror. He likes to talk to him self and smiles. He know's he's so handsome :)

- He coos and talks a lot. It's the sweetest thing.

- He weighs 18.5 lbs! My wrists are feeling it too! I think I've sprained one of them from holding him... maybe it's just from holding him too much? :)

- He started sleeping through the night last month. It's been sooo nice. He sleeps about 8 - 10 hrs a night.

- He HATES being on his belly.

- He LOVES his pacifier.

- He's got the biggest cheeks ever.

Here are a few more pictures of him. He's getting so big!

Blessing day!

I'm a horrible picture taker and took about.... ZERO. I stole this from Shellene.

Showin' off his chubs

Life has been pretty crazy. I went back to work January 18th and Brian started his new job the same week. He's now working at a school called L.I.F.E. working with special needs children. Along with his new job he's still going to school full time, which keeps him really busy. I really appreciate all of his hard work and his continuous good attitude. He's been such a good daddy to Koston. I know Koston just loves him so much because he get's the biggest smile on his face when he gets home from school or when he hears him over speaker phone :) It's really sweet. It was pretty tough going back to work and leaving Koston but we were able to find a great baby sitter to watch him and one that we felt really comfortable with.

It seemed like everything just fell into place right when it was needed. It's amazing how much Heavenly Father has helped us out and listened to our prayers. We are so blessed!

It's way past my bedtime... so until next time!

Good night!
