HE GOT THE JOB!!!!!

So Chris interviewed for a job at Sysco last Friday and we have been waiting and waiting to hear back from them. The interview went really well and Chris had all the qualifications for the job and the CFO said she would have her decision by monday (last monday) and we never heard anything. Needless to say, we were both stressed! We were getting so anxious and sick of waiting but today we got the good news! I was at Walmart when Chris called me. You'd think someone could hold in their excitement but nope, not me! I screamed and stopped in my tracks hahaha. I couldn't believe it! I proceeded to wonder around Walmart lost not remembering what i came here for. But now the reality has set in and we are moving NEXT WEEKEND!! AHHHHH... there is SO much to do and so little time. And on top of that, i will be the only packing and cleaning while Chris finishes things at school. It is going to be a CRAZY week but i am so excited. We have been waiting for this day for a while. I am so proud of Chris and all the hard work he has been doing for our family!! He is the best :) YAY!!

HALLOWEEEEEEN

We had a pretty fun Halloween this year. I got to dress Bryn up as a cute kitty and show her off. We didn't go trick-or-treating cause Bryn is just to little but I took her to a couple of my friends houses to show her off! Chris was at school most of the day so i just made Maddies Lasagna soup and it was delicious. I also made some yummy pumpkin chocolate chip cookies!! We had a fun relaxing Halloween. I can't wait till next year when Bryn can go door to door and get lots of candy :)

Halloween Party

We went to our first Halloween Party with Brynlee and it was so fun! It was supposed to be a couples party with no kids but we couldn't find a babysitter so we weren't going to go. I really wanted to get out of the house and mingle with people our own age so my friend just told us to bring her. It turned out fine taking her cause she can't run around yet and bug everyone so it was still fun for everyone! We played fun games and ate good, fattening food!! Brynlees costume is a cat but me and Chris were dressing up as basketball players and we decided to dress Bryn up as one too so we would all match. It turned out really cute!! I am still going to dress her up as a cat on Halloween though so i will post pics of that later. But here are some pics from our party :)

So Sweet

Chris's Grandma Judd made Brynlee this really cute jacket and beanie when she was born but it was 12 months so she hasn't had the chance to wear it till now. So today along with her birthday photo shoot i took some cute pics in her outfit to send to Grandma Judd. It was the sweetest thing i have ever seen. She looked so innocent and cute!! I loved it :)

Vegas Trip

As i was going through our pics, i realized i haven't posted anything about our Vegas trip we had with some of Chris's family. Chris's dad took us to vegas to watch the SUU vs. UNLV game and we had a BLAST! The game was so fun and there were so many people there. The stadium made SUU's stadium look like a high school field!! We all were matching in our SUU gear and the kids had tattoos. It was so cute. Brynlee had tons of fun looking at people and clapping with the crowd. After the game we went to P.F. Chengs and it was delish. The next morning we swam and went shopping. Me and Nicole had fun doing that and got some cute things!! I think i found a new shopping buddy when we move home :) After that we headed back to Cedar. Then the next weekend Chris's family came down to watch Cam and Mack run the Marathon in St. George. Jimmy was also here so we got to see him. It was fun to see them but man was it hot in St. George. We got down there at 10:00 and it was already 90 degrees!!!! Poor Bryn was in a long sleeve and pants so i stripped her down and wished i could do the same haha. I do not do well with heat and i was seriously having a anxiety attack! After that and Vegas, i vowed i would never live anywhere where it is 80 + degrees at 9:00 at night! I was miserable! After that we went to the SUU game. It was a fun couple of weeks :)

Judd Family Pics

I know i just wrote a HUGE post but i forgot to mention the family pics we had with Chris's Family. They turned out cute but i was a mess that day. I didn't have anything to wear so needless to say, i hate my outfit but everyone else looks good! It was fun and im glad we finally have a Judd family pic. I didn't really like the lighting of the the original pics so i just played around with them and changed the lighting a little bit so here are some pics. :)

10 Months and FUN

Brynlee is now 10 months (almost 11) and i still can't believe it! She has gotten so big so fast! Even though it makes me sad that she is getting bigger everyday and soon won't be my little baby anymore, i love this stage. She is so much to play with now! She loves to be chased around the apartment. She laughs and laughs and collapses till i get her! Its hilarious. I got her a new baby doll for her stroller and she loves being the mommy to her baby. She carries, well drags, it everywhere. She loves "cooking" with mommy which really means pulling down all the towels and playing on the rug in the kitchen haha. She has started talking a lot more and is actually really smart. She has a little Jazz basketball and we play with it almost everyday and the other day she grabbed it and started saying "ball.. ball" over and over. I was so amazed and proud! The funniest thing she has started doing is crawling as fast as she can to the bathroom when she hears the water turn on for her bath, my bath or chris's bath. Once she gets in there, she stands up on the tubs and automatically starts laughing so hard and splashes the water. It is so freaking funny!! I love it. But don't get me wrong, she definitely has her mama's and grandmas attitude! She has started hitting, screaming and throws temper tantrums. She is so dramatic when she is pissed. She throws herself back and arches! Its kinda funny how dramatic she really is. I just love being this cute girls Mom and being with her everyday. She has brought so much joy and happiness to our little family and i can't wait to watch her grow! I can't believe she is going to be 1 in a couple months! AWWW.... LOL.
Well anyways, last week we went up north to visit family, get pictures taken and get chris's knee looked at. It was a really fun and traumatic weekend. We got to see Grandma Lamreaoux (sorry if i totally botched that) and that was really fun to see her. She is so sweet and we talked a lot. We are planning on going to Idaho to see her in the next few months! Denise and I shopped till we dropped but had a blast doing it. We were exhausted so we decided to stay in and BBQ. It was really fun just chilling with everyone. Then saturday, i shopped till i dropped with Al on a search for family picture clothes for the boys. I can easily say i was sick of shopping after the weekend. I was supposed to shop for my birthday but i had enough haha. Then sunday we hung out with my fam for a while then went to sunday dinner at the Judds. We got to see Maddie, Mark, Ada and Hannah. I always love seeing them and hanging out. But this is where the traumatic part comes in.... Mark was feeling sick at dinner and Brynlee wasn't acting like her self. All of a sudden mark is puking then Brynlee starts puking all over me!! Aww.... it was disgusting and i felt bad for my poor baby. So after that all happened, Chris took me and Brynlee back to my parents house so we could get cleaned up and i could put Brynlee down. Poor thing. Then I got a call from Chris saying that i had his grandmas keys in my purse. We had to pick her up cause she just had surgery and we took her car and left mine there cause my car is to small. So i had to run the keys back up there. But i didn't mind cause i got to talk with everyone more. The fun didn't stop there. The next day was picture day and brynlee's nose was like a faucet!! I didn't really wanna take her out in the cold for pics while she was feeling sick but you would never know she was sick cause she was so happy and did awesome while taking pics. However, that night she puked all over again :( it was not a fun night! Then the whole next day she had diarrhea. We went to lunch with Denise before we left and she had the BIGGEST blow out ever! Thank goodness she was there to help me cause Chris runs the other way when that stuff happens lol. After that, chris had his appt and that took like 3 freakin hours! He is getting surgery on his knee in November to get his miniscus fixed. Im glad he is finally getting it fixed cause it has been killing him. Then we headed back to cedar. Bryn was miserable. She was feeling sick and i felt so bad! We were all exhausted and just crashed when we came home. Then Chris and I both had the flu the next day! Ugh..... it was honestly the worst day ever. I had to take care of me, chris and brynlee while feeling like crap! It was not fun. Well that is our little update. sorry if it was an overload!! :)
