Home Sweet Home!

It has been so great having Treagan home. We absolutely love him. McKinley has been such a big helper. She always wants to hold him, hug him, and kiss on him. I am so grateful that she loves him so much. Treagan does what any new baby does best....eat, sleep, and poop! Treagan loves to be snuggled in the bouncer, where he sleeps most of the time!


Treagan's favorite place...sleeping in the bouncer

Lots of Love

McKinley was so excited to meet her new little brother. I am grateful that she is so excited...I have been a little nervous about it, but all is well! She could not wait to hold him and she was very persistent that she did not want any help from mom. She is going to be a great big sister. Also, McKinley is potty training. While we were in the hospital my WONDERFUL mom took on the task of potty training. McKinley has been doing really well. I really don't know where I would we without my outstanding mom! Mom- Thanks for all of your help and all you do for my family. We all LOVE YOU!

Welcome home Treagan....He will probably wish he was still in the womb after his sister gets a hold of him!

Grammy and Treagan. Treagan actually posed for this picture. He was asleep and opened his eyes just in time for the photo!


Grandma and Grandpa Brown and Treagan.

We really want to express our thanks and love to all of our family and friends. We are truly appreciative of all the help, love and support we have received. We could not have done any of this without friends and family. We know it was a long trek to the hospital and many of you made the trip....THANKS. We love you all!

Baby LOVE

Here are just some fun pictures of Treagan. He is such a content little man. I am so grateful that Heavenly Father has blessed me with such a wonderful family. Everyday I feel so overwhelmed by the responsibility that Heavenly Father has given me has a mother and wife. I pray each day that I may be the mom and wife that Heavenly Father wants me to be. I am so grateful to be a mom to two wonderful children.

I love how peaceful Treagan looks in the picture.

My mom and sisters gave Treagan this blanket. I think he already has his favorite blanket. He just loves to be cuddled up in it!

Princess Party

This last Saturday McKinley was invited to her first Princess Birthday Party for Tasia. McKinley was so excited to wear her Cinderella dress. They had a great time playing pass the slipper, eating lots of sugar, making necklaces, and getting princess tiaras. McKinley is definitely getting into the whole princess thing.

Car seat covers

This post is dedicated to my amazing mother. The other day we were at Target and saw a cute car seat cover that I loved. So we decided to buy fabric and she would duplicate it. Well not only is it better than the one we saw she made McKinley a matching one. She gave them to us on Christmas day. Needless to say I was so ecstatic. I mean look how incredible they look, and plus McKinley just loves her. My mom also made us matching burp cloths. Thanks for a great Christmas present mom....WE LOVE THEM!

Christmas Afternoon

This year we spent Christmas afternoon at my moms house. It was fun and relaxing as always. We had a great dinner and fun playing with all of our new games and gadgets we had received. This truly was a memorable Christmas. I love the valuable time we get to spend with family. After certain events this year I have come to realize how important everyday is. We never know what may come to tomorrow, but as of now COME WHAT MAY AND LOVE IT!


My two favorite people in the whole wide world!!!(soon to be three!)


The Girls


So GoOfY...what else can I say expect that I love them.

Christmas Morning

This year was so exciting because McKinley is finally getting old enough to understand. I think she was still a little hesitant about Santa coming to our house, but after seeing her gifts Christmas morning she might just change her mind. Before Christmas I kept asking McKinley if Santa was coming and she would said, "No ho ho". She always calls Santa Ho Ho. This year Santa brought McKinley a little kitchen and she was in heaven. She also got all the little extras to go with it. She had been making me a lot of fun things lately with her new kitchen.

Merry Christmas. We had such an enjoyable Christmas. It was so wonderful to feel the true spirit of Christmas from neighbors, family and friends.

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve is spent every year at The Brown's. We go over to Oliver's parents house and enjoy a nice dinner, a family gift exchange, a Christmas story, and a sing-a-long. It is so exciting to watch McKinley as she is starting to get older. One of the fun and exciting things about Christmas Eve is that Santa shows up and passes out candy canes to all of kids. I thought McKinley would freak out (going off previous experiences this year), but she didn't.

Christmas sing-a-long

This year we joined family at the Christmas sing-a-long at the Energy Solutions Arena. We really enjoyed going and think we will go again next year. McKinley had a great time dancing and singing with her cousin Parker.
