Summer Time...

So it has been so long since my last blog, I feel like such a slacker, but it is hard to get around to it with work and baby and everything else going on.  So here will be a big long update of everything we've been up to since baby Lusi came along.

Lusi is now 3 1/2 months!  I cannot believe how fast these past months have gone by and how big our baby has gotten.

She is growing so fast and changing so much every day!  She has brought so much joy and happiness to our lives I don't know how we ever lived without her!
Lusi's first holiday was Easter, we didn't really do anything and since she was only 9 days old she was really too little for anything, so we just went to church for the first time as a family and that was good enough for me.

Next was my very first Mother's Day!  It was so nice to celebrate a Mother's day where I didn't have to do anything!  I finally got to be spoiled!

 

 My sisters both decided to move home in May when Lusi was 1 month old.  They were so excited to finally meet baby and baby was happy to finally get to meet her aunties! 

Lusi was blessed on June 5th.  Teki did such a good job with her blessing and I was so happy that I have a worthy husband who was able to bless her.  Lots of family was able to come for the blessing and we had a small eating at the house after church.

The next weekend on June 11th was Teki and I's 1 year anniversary.  What better way to celebrate than by making our marriage and family eternal!  We were sealed for all time and eternity in the Mount Timpanogos Temple.  The best part was being sealed to our little angel!  It was the most amazing experience and we got to share it with our families!

We had a family reunion for the Salakielu side on June 16-18.  It was kind of small but it was still nice to see some of the family that we don't always get to see.  And Lusi loved meeting her aunties and cousins.  On June 22 Lusi had her 2 month doctor appointment.  She weighed in at 12 lbs 4 oz!  She also had to get 3 shots, 2 in one leg and one in the other... this is her crying about it.  Later that night she had her first Girls Night In.  We all had a fun time and Lusi loved meeting all her new friends.  She also got her very first pedicure that night!  We gave her little monster yellow and green because she is a little monster!

On July 1st we took a road trip up to Choteau, Montana to visit my grandparents for the Forth of July.  This was Lusi's first road trip, and she did not enjoy it at all!  It was about an 8 hr drive and she screamed most of the time!  But we made it and she got to meet even more new aunties, uncles and cousins.  Best of all she got to meet her Great Grandma and Grandpa Nordhagen.  This was also Teki's first time visiting Montana and we all had a great time celebrating the 4th and spending time together on our first family vacation. 

Once we got back from Montana, I had to go back to work the next day.  I wasn't too happy about this and was really sad to have to leave my princess.  But I knew she would be in good hands with Aunty Jenn, who has become Lusi's new babysitter.  She watches her everyday that I work, I feel so lucky that I am able to have someone that I trust watch Lusi. 

I can't believe it is already August and Lusi is almost 4 months old.  I swear this has been the fastest four months ever! If only the last 4 months of my pregnancy felt like it went by this quick!  I will start to get better with my blogs and try to stay up to date with everything going on in our crazy lives.  Until next time...
