Family Pictures

We Just recently took some family pictures. As you know, Colby is a huge Green Bay Packers fan and so I wanted to get a family picture of all of us in the official apparel for his office. I have to admit, I guess I am a fan now since they are doing so awesome!
I am so thankful for our small family and for the love our son brings into our lives everyday! My favorite times are when we spend time together and making Trevin laugh. I love to see him smile when you walk into his room each morning and he sees you poking your head over his crib. He just grins and sort of laughs (if thats what you call a four month old baby's sounds). I can't believe how much he is growing but being a mom is the #1 blessing in my life this year! I love seeing Colby play with him and to watch Trevin's Aunts, Uncles, and Grandparents be with him too! What a blessing family is in my life!

Halloween

One Night when I was working at the hospital, I was sitting at the nurses station and someone had printed a picture similar to this one off the internet. I thought it would be fun to do and so here are the results. If you notice Trevin's Left leg is slightly reddish purple...I didn't realize the hole was not exactly big enough and so I was cutting off his circulation. No wonder he didn't smile. So after Hilary and I struggled to get him out of the pumpkin I cut the hole bigger and took some other ones. He finally smiled for me. I think my neighbors are going to turn me in for child abuse since it was so cold but it was so much fun and I think the pictures turned out cute!
This picture is the one I took after I cut the holes bigger. This is in our backyard...The other ones are at Colby's parents house. I really liked the red background!
Trevin was a penguin for Halloween! It was so much fun dressing him up and going up to his grandparents house to show him off.

I had to work on Halloween so I didn't get to take him around to too many places but Colby took him around and showed him off! I had to hurry and get some pictures in before I went to work. He is growing up so fast but he is so much fun to have around and to love! I couldn't have asked for a better son! He sleeps through the night and lets us sleep in even! He doesn't cry very much, only when he is hungry, and he is smiling more and more everyday! We love him so much!

Much to Say...

I have been really busy lately and have not had a chance to update our blog. This first picture was from Trevin's baby blessing. Grandpa Craig was holding him and he just smiled as I took the picture. I just had to post it! He is now almost two months older but that shows you how far behind I am!
This next set of pictures is from our wonderful Green Bay Trip! Although I was a little nervous about going, it was worth my time by far! I was so surprised how involved the town is when the Packers play! The whole town shuts down and everyone goes crazy! Here we are decked out in our Packers outfits at the game! It was so fun! Colby is a true Packers fan even when they are down and it was fun to go and see how excited he got when they won! He has a room in our house dedicated to the Packers! What a True Fan!

We have been working on my scrapbook room! I am so pumped! It is coming slower than I thought but at the same time, I am just grateful it is coming! We cleaned out our basement yesterday. It was quite the challenge hanging out with the spiders and dust. I am glad its over with! We took a lot of stuff to the dump and it looks so much better now that it is all clean! It was not fun but I am glad it's done!

What a Relief

I should have posted something yesterday but, I didn't have any time at all! I was too busy packing for Green Bay and watching Colby's softball games last night. Anyway, I am proud to say, very proud to say, that after much studying and stress...I am officially a Registered Nurse! What a Relief it was to hear the voice on the other end of the phone say "Congratulations!" I paid $9.95 to get my results early and I only listened to the operator say "Congratulations" and then I hung up! I waited all night and paid extra money and I was so excited I didn't even wait to hear what else she had to say. Then I wondered if I really had passed...so I went online and paid an additional $7.95 to see "Pass" under my name. I guess I had failed before and so it was just too good to be true! As my reward, as my husband promised, I get to finish a room in our house downstairs for my scrapbook stuff. I get my own scrapbook room and after waiting 9 months...I actually get to start scrapbooking again! It has been extremely hard to not scrapbook!
After flying to Denver, then to Milwaukee, missing two exits that we should've taken, and two separate detours due to construction, we finally made it safe and sound in Green Bay. Although we are coming so Colby can watch the Packers I am excited to just be able to relax this weekend without the extra stress of studying for my boards. I am missing my son but, Grandpa Craig put him on the phone when I called and he made some little sounds. I appreciate them taking time to tend and allow us to just get away for a few days!

I need some Help....Anyone?

As you can tell I am very new at this! Colby is at work and I am trying to do this by myself so he thinks I am sort of good at computers. Anyway, I need help adding people to my list and also I wanted to do something cute for our title, Like Amanda did with hers but I don't know how to do that...Can someone just briefly tell me! Thanks!

Here We Go...

Well...at my Dad's request, I guess we will be "bloggers" now. I think it is a great idea, I just need to get used to the idea. I am way into scrapbooking and so I think this will be a great thing to learn and something that everyone can see. Maybe Colby will realize that I do have a little "Computer Nerd" in me. Anyway, this is my first posting and so I will fill everyone in...We have a wonderful son named Trevin who is now 11 weeks old and at his last visit was ten pounds! He is such a joy! It has been a life changing experience but it is such a wonderful thing to be a mom! Today, I have been cleaning my house, doing laundry, and trying to get everything ready for our BIG TRIP this weekend! If some of you don't already know, my husband is a MAJOR Green Bay Packers fan and so we will be traveling to Green Bay this weekend to watch a football game and go on a little vacation. We have our Packers shirts ready (Including an outfit for our son to wear while we are away) and we are excited to leave soon. Grandma and Grandpa Hitchcock (Craig and Merry) will be taking care of our son most of the weekend with help from Colby's parents and his Grandma Park. I am a little sad to leave him for four days, but I guess it will be good to have a little break and some relaxing. In all reality, he is a very good boy and sleeps most of the night. I guess I should go finish my laundry, I have to go to BUNCOS in about two hours! Something that I enjoy doing with some of my girlfriends here in Nephi. See ya!
