Rachel took some pictures for us. She is amazing!! These are only a few but I love how they turned out. Dave is still with us, just not in any of these. We will post some with dad!!
I know this looks bad, but he did it to himself. He scratched his face and it would not stop bleeding. He fell asleep so I put him down. When I went in to get him it had run clear down his face. It looks like there would be quite a scratch under all the blood, but it is a tiny, tiny scratch.
Brock is sleeping through the night!! He is six weeks old and sleeping anywhere from eight to nine and a half hours at night. This is the earliest I have had a child sleep through the night. It is heaven and I hope it continues. The only thing I can say is that the swaddle blanket my mother-in-law gave me gets the credit. The very night we first used it he slept all night and ever since. He now takes really good naps during the day!!
We blessed Brock today. Dave gave him a wonderful blessing. We had a lot of our family here and some great friends. He isn't really happy in this picture, I was surprised he was so good during the blessing.
Here are the kids in their Halloween costumes. Aubrey was a pirate and Ali was a gypsy girl. I didn't feel like dressing Brock up in a hot, uncomfortable costume this year. They had a blast at the Trunk or Treat on thursday and then had fun handing out candy on friday.
Ali and I went to the pumpkin patch with her preschool class today. Dave stayed home with Brock so I could have some one on one time with Ali. We had a great time! Ali went down that slide as many times as she could before we had to leave. The pictures are all black and white because I don't know how to run a camera and had no idea it was set to black and white.
We (Dave and Nancy) met in Junior High, and have been together since January 9, 1992. We dated all through high school, and cooresponded religiously while Dave was on a mission in Paraguay from 1995 to 1997. On November 14, 1997, we were married in the Mount Timponogas LDS temple in American Falls, Utah.
Aubrey Rae
Aubs was born on September 11, 1999 in Orem, Utah. She was an extremely chunky baby, but grew out of it in her third year. She is now ten and enjoys swimming, school, dance, and piano. She is our sweet child, who doesn't have a care in the world. She is a lot like her dad.
Ali Evelina
Ali was born on July 21, 2004 in Summerlin Hospital in Las Vegas. She is four and enjoys Pre School, gymnastics, and dance. She is our little spit fire, absolutely full of it. She can hardly carry on a conversation without breaking out into song. She keeps us laughing.
Brock David
Brock David was born September 23, 2008. He is now one and isn't quite the mellow fellow anymore. He rarely stops moving. He is curious and is always into something! He is so much fun and so happy!
