In Loving Memory

How is it possible that one year ago you passed away? Time has gone so fast and yet so slow. There has not been a day that has gone by that I have not thought about what a special person you are. Ryan you are truly missed by every single person that has had the opportunity of knowing you. What an amazing husband, father, son, brother and friend.

Ryan I love you so much and am so grateful to have you as an older brother.

Our Crazy Halloween

This Halloween was SO much fun!!!! Maycie loved every single thing about it and actually got everything. There is no greater joy in the world than watching your baby experience new and exciting things. From carving and painting pumpkins to dressing up in costumes and trick or treating, Mayc loved every second of it.

Thanks mom and dad for the delicious tortilla soup and carving pumpkin fest, Mandy for inviting us to come trunk or treating with you, and Aaron for LOVING to dress up.

This Halloween was a definite success!

Snowbird in October

Our family loves going up to Snowbird in October. The leaves changing, the cool air is refreshing and combining that with family is all we need.

There have been so many special memories that have gone on up here, we owe a BIG thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Hill for letting us be apart of something so amazing!

One of last year's October photos, Ry you were deeply missed!!!!

Arts and Crafts with Maycie

Mayc and I have been bored the past couple days, being sick at home so today we ventured out to the Dollar Store and bought lots of fun little knick knacks for crafts. Maycie had so much fun, a few things might have been out of her age range but non the less she LOVED every second of it.

A new pair of wings

Maycie LOVES to dress up and so when I saw these wings I had to buy them!

Of course she loves them and has not wanted to take them off at all.

She has decided that for Halloween she wants to be a beautiful butterfly.

Having a 2 year old has to be THE greatest thing that has ever happened to me

(Besides Aaron of course!)

Cutest thing I have ever seen!

Love you Mayc

Girls night out with Mary Poppins

Last night my mom surprised Whit and I with tickets to go see the Broadway of Mary Poppins up at the Capital Theatre in Salt Lake and it was SO GOOD!!!!! We sat in the third row from the front which was amazing. We loved every second of it.

Thanks to the best mom in the world!

We love you.

One last summer trip

One of favorite family trips is Lake Powell. The scenery, the company, the water, THE FOOD, and when you don't have your child with you it makes it all the more relaxing

(Thanks Mom Bingham!)

I am so grateful for such amazing parents who love to take these kind of trips with their kids!

Happy Birthday Mom and Dad

Happy Birthday to my Mom and Dad.

Both born on the same day, just a year apart.

Whit and I surprised them with a few decorations in their room.

Mom got some makeup for her gift so Ellie decided to get Grandpa looking as pretty as ever:)

And then it was Ellie and Clara's turn.

We love you two so much and are so grateful for such wonderful, loving, caring parents who have taught us SO much. I hope and pray that Aaron and I can be as great as parent as you two were with raising the five of us.

2 year old photos

My mom and I went outside the other day and snapped a few pictures of Maycie for her 2 year old pictures. They turned out so cute!!!!

Thanks mom you're the best!!!

Happy Birthday to Aaron and Me!

Well I decided it was time for an update on our little family. Besides now being 19 weeks pregnant, Aaron and I recently celebrated our birthdays!!! So fun but it seems that as the years progress birthdays just seem overrated which is such a bummer but luckily we have this little girl to get us through them:)

Early morning at the ballon festival

I can not get over the fact that our beautiful baby girl turned 2!

She had such a fun birthday. She loved getting presents, loved having a party and LOVED blowing out her candles on her cake.

Maycie's First visit to the ER

Taking a child to the Er is the most horrible thing to have to do. Especially at 1:00 in the morning! Last night around 11:00 Mayc woke up coughing so as I checked her video monitor I saw that her body was convulsing, that is not a normal thing to see. As I went to check on her I found her covered in throw up, it was ALL over her bed, bumper, blankets and it was the saddest sight. We quickly got her out of bed and Aaron got her into the bath. That left me in charge of cleaning it ALLLLLL up. Well a pregnant mom who already has problems keeping anything down + cleaning up this mess= A pretty nasty sight. After I got everything cleaned Aaron and I took turns rocking Mayc as she continued to throw up every half hour, totally lethargic, with eyes sunken in. Finally I could not stand seeing her this way anymore, I called a nurse to see what she thought about us taking Mayc to the Emergency Room and she agreed, Mayc needed a doctor.

Luckily there was no wait we got right in. They monitored Mayc for a while, tried to give her medicine which came back up so after 3 more times of throwing up they hooked her up to a IV and got the fluids pumping. 3 hours and a lot of screaming and crying later we were able to take Maycie home and get her into bed.

This morning she is doing alot better. Not able to eat any solids only drinking clear liquids and sucking on lots of popsicles (Which she is totally ok with). Our little girl is almost back to herself. Thank goodness this was the first and hopefully the last experience in the ER, at least for a while anyway.

#2 here we come;)

Baby number two, here we come!!!

A few months after RY passed I started feeling like it was time to get pregnant again. I was terrified because with Maycie I was soooo sick and the thought of having to go through that again made me nauseous. But as I watch Macy grow and laugh and talk all of that fear disappears and I know that it's time to bring another precious baby into our family.

There is nothing in this world that compares to being a parent. It is truly the greatest gift that we are blessed with and Aaron and I could not be more excited.

Maycie is also very excited to have a new baby, not that she fully understands right now, she will lift up my shirt and say," Mom, I wanna see the baby, where is it?" (So confused)

We can't wait for December for our little baby Bingham to be making its debut!

Cruisin the Mexican Riviera

My parents are 2 very special and amazing people. They offered to take us all on a cruise and we were all very excited it. We had a blast and loved being able to spend so much time together. It was alot different not having the life of the party with us, Ry was missed more than words can begin to explain.
