Luckily we got some snow earlier this month, we were able to go SLEDDING!!!!! We were also lucky enough to celebrate Cameron's first Birthday with a little party--she had a ton of fun!!!!

Some pics from December 2010

We were blessed to have my sister, Tiffany and my MIL, Naomi here with us for Christmas this year. Naomi (tutu) has been here since Oct and will be until the end of the month. She has been able to spend a lot of time with the girls!

OK, So I have been AWFUL at updating my blog. Instead of trying to go back and update month by month; I am just going to update from now forward.

Mikayla is doing great in preschool and dance class!! She is learning so many new things, and has a TON of energy, she really keeps me on my toes!

Cameron is doing great as well! She has had a hard time tolerating certain foods, and it is likely she has Eosinophilic Esophogitis (a white blood cell disorder of the esophogus). The only way to diagnose is by a scope and her GI doctor wants to hold off for a while. She luckily has been able to tolerate rice milk and Vital Jr (an amino acid based protein drink) and many non dairy and non soy foods. Luckily she is just a sweet little angel that has been excelling in life. She is walking, or shall I say running, and definitely keeping us BUSY! She just turned 1 on Dec 28th, and we are so blessed to have her in our lives!!

Want a raspberry??? How can you say, no!!!

July 2010

I took Mikayla along with our friends to get the girls their first mani/pedi! Oh what fun! The girls got their nails done, while we soaked our feet and watched! I LOVE having girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Utah celebrates Pioneer Days (Utah Mormon settlement) the end of June, there was a big parade close to my home and a heritage days celebration at a park close to my house also. We were very lucky to celebrate this UT holiday with some great friends!!

June 2010

We were able to take a trip this last June to CO, to meet Bailey (my niece) and to visit! We love you little Bailey!

Patrick went to Japan for a work trip this last May; he was planning on being in Iida city for a week and a half. So, the girls and I decided to go and visit family in CO. Patrick had a great trip! The timing worked out well, because the girls and I were able to attend Katelyn's baby shower! We had a great time visiting. Enjoy some pics from our fun CO trip...

We planted flowers in some flower pots that were displayed in our front walkway. Mikayla LOVED helping out!

Playing at Layton Commons Park this last May, enjoy!

The Fairchild girls!

Cameron's baby dedication

We had Cameron's baby dedication April 25th at our church, Alpine. We were so lucky to have some family and friends share in the joy of dedicating our sweet little baby to God!

Celebrating Mikayla's birthday

We had Mikayla's party at the Treehouse museum in Ogden. The party was great! The kids were able to explore the museum, we had a party room for story time, gifts, cake, and hanging out. After cake, Mikayla and her friends went and explored the museum and made some fun crafts. Patrick was able to help Mikayla make a pretty cool craft. All and all the party was a blast! Thanks to everyone for coming and celebrating Mikayla's 3 rd birthday with us!
Enjoy the slide show...

Happy 3rd Birthday Mikayla

Happy 3rd Birhtday Mikayla!!!! I love my sweet little girl more than words can express! I thank God every day for bringing her into my life!
Tutu (Hawaiian word for grandma), and Kathryn, Mikayla's aunt came from WA to meet Cameron and to celebrate Mikayla's birthday!
We gave Mikayla a barbie sized doll house, and a scooter which she opened on her actual birthday.

Just too cute!!!!

Cameron sucking her thumb--too cute!!

My two sweet girls! I am so lucky to have them in my life!

Easter

Mikayla woke up Easter morning with a temp of 102.0 with chills and shakes; we took her to the doctor, she was diagnosed with strep throat. We did not make it to church, but the Easter bunny still came. Happy Easter girls!
