Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

This year Justin's family decided to start a Christmas tradition of making a music video to a Christmas song. Each family will make their own music video to the same song and then Justin's sister will splice pieces of each together. This is our family's music video to Mariah Carey's "All I want for Christmas is you." We had a lot of fun making it! Enjoy! 

Here's the combined family video!

Christmas Village

This weekend we went to Christmas Village in Ogden with two couples we're good friends with-the Schultz's and Haws. It was pretty cold outside so we did a speed trip.
Myah was bundled up, but I felt bad for her little face poking out! Should have brought a baby ski-mask...if they make those!

Three couples and two babies in strollers. Fun times!

Christmas is coming!

This year I'm extra excited for Christmas because we have a new member of the family to focus on. Holidays are more fun now that Myah's here! We put up our Christmas decor last week (or the week before) and I think it looks great! It's always nice to have some extra twinkle lights to spice up our apartment!
So here's our tree and stockings...hung by the tree with care.

We tried to get some pics of Myah with the tree in the background but she kept craning her neck to look at the tree and not us! (These are probably cuter!)

Yay for Christmas!

This is Justin and Myah's new trick. Justin holds Myah's feet and balances her while she stands on her own! (He's careful!)

She just loves staring at the tree. She especially loves it when I let her touch the tree!

A bit Attached

Yesterday I went to Myah's 4 month doctor appointment and she weighed about 14 lbs and is 25.5 inches long. The doc said she looked perfect! Myah's obviously growing (which is good), but I didn't know I'd get so attached to Myah's clothes!

She's pretty much in 6 month clothing because of her length, so it was time to pack away the small clothes...and it was sad!
Myah's room looks like a bomb went off, but I'm in the process of getting it more organized, so it will look better in the next few days! In this picture I'm showing Myah the onesie we brought her home in from the hospital...memories.

Happy Thanksgibing back!

For Thanksgiving day we spent it with my mom's side of the family-the Porter side.
My mom has a huge family so we had it at my parents' church Stake Center. After our feast we set up Volley-ball nets and played. Good times! (Jess, I'm using your pictures since I forgot my camera! Hope you don't mind!!)
Myah and cousin Mabel looking deep in conversation!


On Friday we went over to Justin's family for another Thanksgiving bash. It was also so fun!
This is Justin's sister, Katie, holding her sweet baby, Porter. She had him only 4 days previous! You go girl!
Nana with the 3 grandbabies...each baby is 4 months apart. Noah (middle)-8 months, Myah (right)-4 months, and Porter (left)-4 days!
If you look close in this one, you'll see Myah spitting up! Good timing!
And here's the crew either taking pictures or trying to get the babies to look! How many Calders does it take to make a baby look? ...aparently 5!
