"Addison's Blessing Day"


To Our Precious Bundle,


Addison mommy and daddy can't even describe to you just how special you really are!! We see you as a definite gift from above. You were due to be born at 28 to 29 weeks, and were a good candidate for severe health problems. It was once that I was in the hospital on bedrest and decided to say a quiet prayer. I asked Heavenly Father to please to make this experience hard on me and not on you. I asked that if he were going to have you come that early, that he make you not struggle. I told him to please put all difficulties on me, whether it be my surgery, or getting you here, etc...... I just prayed so hard that you could stay in a little longer and be healthy. Sure enough the lord answered my prayers. Even though I was devestated that I had to be in the hospital so long, it bought you so much more time to develop. Let me just tell you little Addi it was the most difficult thing mommy had done so far. I know now that my prayer was answered, because the lord did exactly what I asked, he put all the difficulty on me, and DID NOT make you struggle. He took care of you and made sure that you came developed enough and healthy. This is why my little precious that mommy and daddy had you blessed in this gospel, because we know that Heavenly Father had a large hand in bringing you to us, and we are forever grateful. We love you and are already so proud of what a beautiful little lady you are. I know brother doesn't pay to much attention to you yet, be he loves you so much, and can't wait until you are little bigger to play with. You two will be the best of friends. We love you are little princess, and pray and hope that you are truly BLESSED through out your life!!


Love,


Mommy, Daddy, and Devin :)

"Condo Day 3"


This day we had more pool time, and also went into St. George for the day! My dad AKA "The Manny" watched the babies, so that me, my mom, and my sister could go to lunch and shop for the day!! Thank goodness for my cute daddy. I don't know what I would do without him and my mom always helping with the babies. Then ofcourse you have chris's parents that help just as much, so between both chris and I still have quite a bit of freedom. Take a look below of the manny in action burping little addison.....We went to the outlet stores for some shopping, and my mom found herself some awesome sunglasses!! They made her look like a fly, it was to funny so I had to get a picture.....Once we got back to the condo from St. George it was time for some more pool time.
Addi just decided to stay in the shade and lounge!! :)
After our fun filled day of lunch, shopping, and ofcourse the pool AGAIN! We decided to get ready for the evening and go to dinner at cute little mexican restaurant. Below is just alot of fun pictures before we left for dinner, so enjoy............
