October!

Awesome!!!
She smiles
So does she...


Crazy how time flies by and I forget to document things... so, I am going to forget a bunch of stuff, but I will try. We went down to St. George to get away for some fun time with our favorite St. George family! We love our Squires! Its fun to have family other places that aren't super far so we can visit! It was justin's sister Danielle's birthday while we were down there, so we got to spend that with her and play games all sorts, go out to dinner, and have some birthday cake! The whole other days were filled with visiting, playing lot of games, and bowling, and fun! My grandparents also got to come visit their new great grandbaby for the first time and taylor was LOVING them! It was fun to see them for a little bit too. I've been trying to make Halloween fun for Tay this year because she kinda gets what is going on. So this whole past week we did a halloween craft together. That was fun! For halloween, I had NO idea what to make her be... so i was thinking of movies that she loves and one of her favs is "UP" so I wanted something homemade and easy. She was the house from up and Justin was Mr. Fredrickson. They were at a hit everywhere. We went trick or treating at justin's huge work party at adobe and then last night around the neighbor hood. Holidays are SO much more fun with little kids! I can HARDLY WAIT for thanksgiving and christmas. Oh and justin's youngest brother gets home from his mission in Denmark on the 10th. And taylor is almost 2! Lots to look forward to. Skylar is doing awesome and growing SO fast! We love her. She is 6 weeks on tuesday!

2 weeks today...

Warning.. lots of pics
So, Holy Cow...time flies!!! Its been 2 weeks today since are sweet little Skylar was born. I can't believe it. She had her 2 week appointment today and she has already grown a lot. She is 7 pounds 3 oz. and 20 inches long. I can't convince her to stop sleeping all day and just sleep all night. That is a work in progress that hopefully she will get very SOON! She isn't a crier though. She is easy to please and just likes to hang out. My mom was here for 2 weeks and now is gone and its sad. Taylor LOVED having her here and asks for her all the time now. Especially when she isn't getting what she wants from me. We blessed Sky on sunday after conference so that my parents would be able to be here as well. IT was a great blessing and I feel so grateful for Justin that he could give it to her and for a family that is Forever! I love being a mom and wouldn't trade it ever! Conference was awesome even though I need to go back and listen/read ALL the talks again because Taylor would not stop being crazy. oh and I LOVE that its fall outside!

She is Here!!!

She is here! Skylar Grace Wirig. 6 lbs. 11 oz. 18.5 inches long. Dark Hair and perfect. We love her so much. I went in on Tuesday Morning at 6 a.m. and got induced. Had her at 2:39 p.m. Labor was fine. Delivery was perfect. She had the cord wrapped around her neck 3 times and what they call a "true knot" which just means it was a real knot in the cord and tied tight. But she was fine. Our doctor was awesome and we couldn't be more happy with how everything went. We love her so much and So does Taylor!
Taylor holding her sis for the first time just minutes after she was born. She can't stop kissing her.
Taylor always has to hold "it" she says. With her cousin Carter who is 5 days younger than her.
Our first family photo just right after she was born.


And Taylor at the park loving life. I love her so much and so happy I have two little girls to love now.

Homecoming, Reunion, Montana

Taylor and Emma With Aunt Kara who just returned home from Kirtland on her mission. The Ohio, Cleveland Mission (they were 3 and 5 months old last time they saw her)
We all made some signs...here is one of Steve's as a Joke....
All the grandkids waiting super patiently for Aunt Kara

Then it was the Wirig Family Reunion. It was disney themed. Here I am playing Minute to Win it... oh and I won it!
Also, we had a pirate/princess party so since we didn't really plan ahead, we threw together our pirate family costumes out of stuff we had...
The kids putting on a show down on the stage!
Next we just got back from Montana. My little cousin Peter just got baptized. IT was fun to see family and just hang out away from everything. He got baptized in their river since they live kinda far from the font.


The boys shooting some arrows
Some things Taylor does now... HIDES> yep, this is her in my In-laws game closet in their basement... I was looking all over for her and had a feeling to check in there for some reason.. there she was, fast asleep and stayed there for 2 and a half hours out cold.

She also discovered that she loves showers. Here she is loving it.

And just because I have been asked for a belly picture... here is one.. in my pirate costume.. its the only kinda side shot I have so sorry. Now I'm almost 34 weeks.

I love to see the temple


Taylor LOVES temples. Everytime we drive by a church she calls it a temple, but then corrects herself and says church. But she knows a temple is a temple. She spots them from forever away. Luckily we live just down the street from timp temple. So we stop there on the way home from anywhere sometimes so she can just look at it. Pretty sure she things Angel moroni is a monkey though. She points up and says "monkeys!" then she goes on to sing "no more monkeys jumpin on the bed." so... pretty sure that is where people get crazy ideas what goes on in our temples because of kids like mine that just say whatever. So if you ever hear there are monkeys jumpin on the beds in the temple.. you can blame that one on us! I love to see the temple is her favorite primary song too... love it!
