Sunday, April 21, 2013. Lilah at 5 months. There's been a lot going on over here at our house! A lot of learning, a lot of playing, and a lot of growing! Delilah is 5 months old now and amazes me every day! For example, the day she turned 5 months (April 1) she just decided to up and crawl! She is very social and likes to feel a part of everything by yelling and talking very loudly in big groups (aka church). Her hair is looking more strawberry than blonde and I'm hoping that continues! Lilah at 5 months.

Saturday, November 17, 2012. As my pregnancy was nearing full term, I started wondering what "my story" was going to be. Everyone has a delivery story, and everyone's is totally unique and different. I listened and read many women's stories to get some concept of what to expect and what I learned was to expect the unexpected ha! The contractions got stronger so they admitted us around 2pm to Labor and Delivery! I have never felt anything like those contractions that came after my water had broken! I can'...

Wednesday, August 8, 2012. San Diego holds a dear place in my heart. How could it not? With it's perfect weather and wonderful beaches and yummy Mexican food! This year's trip was great, even though I wasn't able to participate in some of the fun activities like boogie boarding or Sea World rides. It was nice to be forced to take it slow and just relax! These were taken just outside our hotel on the boardwalk, right after we lit fireworks on the beach. The next day was Sea World day! Plus she was awesome...

Monday, July 30, 2012. Summer time and 2nd Trimester. This summer has been so much fun and so busy! The first event of the summer was a Monahan trip up to Utah to see Mom and Dad Monahan get set apart to be Mission President in the Baguio, Philippines mission! It was done by Elder Oaks in the Church offices and was so special. I'd never met an Apostle and I got to meet 2 while we were there! The Monahan clan minus one Brother and Sis in law). Tasha and I are due about a month apart). We totally lucked ou...

Friday, October 12, 2012. Baby Shower and Tour of my house! I was just thinking today that I have been lucky to have so much to do during my pregnancy, which has helped it go pretty fast! We started house hunting right after we found out I was pregnant, and have been super busy since then with all the projects and stuff to get it ready to be livable and ready for a baby! So here are the before and after photos of what has kept me occupied the last nine months (besides my lil babe). I had so much fun!

Tuesday, September 27, 2011. Lovey Love Love :). My whole life I dreamed, planned, and looked forward to being married. Now I am and I have to say it is pretty much the best. It's everything I'd ever looked forward to with some additional fun surprises I didn't even expect! I was just reading a bunch of y'all's blogs, and a common, wonderful theme is expressions of how great everyone's spouses are. What a blessing to have a great spouse! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Lovey Love Love :). Kelly and Sterling ...

Saturday, April 7, 2012. So here's all the deets so far about my first pregnancy:. I am almost 10 weeks. Baby is the size of a Prune (cute lil prune). I am dizzy all day and that turns into crazy nausea at night = no bueno (started about week 5) I don't know how women can have other kids to take care of while they feel this way- y'all are amazing! I'm pretty much a bump on a log when I'm feeling icky. Even though I'm so sick sometimes, I am so giddy and happy inside because this is actually happening!

Tuesday, January 8, 2013. What a whirlwind the last 2 months have been! Yeah, Lilah is 2 months now! It has gone by fast, but feels like she's been with us a lot longer. Life has been busier, but even happier and the transition into motherhood has been pretty smooth. What a delight little Delilah is! It is amazing how much personality a little newborn can show for being so small. I couldn't wait to have a baby to just watch all day and be entertained by and Lilah does not disappoint! Yesterday was her bl...

Saturday, December 7, 2013. Oh the things only a mother is proud of, and other news. So I read this thing on Pinterest that had tips on how to make potty training easier. I casually followed some of the guidelines whenever I would change Delilah's poopy diapers or see her making "the face" you know the one. I would ask her if she was going poopoo and use that language a lot and talk about the potty and stuff. She actually looked me right in the eyes and said (whispered) "poopoo". She told me before.
