Mr. Paysen

Here are some pictures from this last week of our little boy!! We had a doctors apt. this last week and he had gained four ounces in four days!! Paysen is starting to smile a ton!! We love it! He is such a good and happy baby! We are so blessed to have him in our home and love the things that we do each day. Mommy loves our normal routine and just loves to hold Paysen all day:) Daddy's smile is the best when he comes home to see his son.. They cuddle lots..One of our favorite times of the day is at night. We have been going through the children's song book and we sing songs.. Daddy even sings quite a few. We then have family scripture study ( which we are reading all of the conference talks right now:) and family prayer. Love it

Look at my muscles

He loves his swing as long as the music is on :)

Our strong and healthy boy..

His smiles just melts our hearts

Morning cuddles are our favorites

So Handsome!!

Cuddles, daddy, and binki... nothing in life gets better!!

Our first little playdate!!

Yesterday Paysen had a little playdate with Oakley and Teagan!! All of us mommas got together to watch the Bachlorette while the babies played. The little girls were so fascinated with Paysen it was too cute. Teagan is seven months older than him and Oakley is ten months older. So fun to get together with friends:) We love it. We have lots of plans this summer to swim, us mommas work out at the club at night while our husbands are home, park dates with picnics, waterpark fun etc! We seriously love all of our friends here and the fun they bring to life! We absolutely love them and look up to them a lot!

Here are some pictures from the other day.

Oakley and Paysen!! I love that she's holding his hand:)

Sunday:)

I am so thankful for the Sabbath day and for the chance each Sunday to renew our covenants with our Heavenly Father and to reflect on the things that we can improve on in our lives. It had been two weeks since we had gone because of just having Paysen. I was so excited and Alex and I kept talking how much we had missed going to church and feeling the spirit the way you do on the Sabbath. We were a little late because we had to change Paysens outfit right as we walked out the door.. He went all over daddy:) I thought that we might have missed the sacrament but right as we walked in a deacon came out to give it to us. I was so emotional, such a tender mercy! I am so thankful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ and what it has done for my life and my families lives. It is my biggest blessing. I am so thankful that I live right now where the fullness of the truth is on the earth again. I missed our ward family and friends so much, it was so good to see all of them and be with them. I felt such an overwhelming of Joy and Peace.

I love this quote: " Your testimony when constantly nourished will keep you safe." he then continues to quote the scripture.. Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. He then states "Let this be the story of your life!"
- President Thomas Monson.

Here are some of our pictures that we took last Sunday!

HaPpY 4th of JuLy!!

We had a great fourth.. Alex had the whole day off so we took our time getting up and getting ready :) we then headed with Alex's family to Wallowa Lake. This was the first time that I had ever been up there.. the drive was breath taking and it was a gorgeous day!! There were so many rivers and lakes and farm after farm so breathtaking. We saw the minim river and I told of the time that we camped and rafted down with Uncle Dan and his family, fun memories. We stopped in Lostine and ate at a Tavern there and got a HUGE hamburger to share.. Alex's Aunts and Uncles were up there selling things. So it was fun to visit with them. They had a big flea market going on so that was fun. Paysen did so good. We then left and went through Joseph I really fell in love with this little town. We got homemade pepperoni sticks that were to die for.. It was so fun to be together and to enjoy a trip away. Up at the lake we went for a beautiful walk. We did Go Carts.. I rode with Alex and I am never driving again we laughed so hard the entire time and could really slide around each corner with two of us. we barely fit in the tiny thing but too funny and so FUN!! We caught up to everyone so fun to pass them. The best was trying to catch Cole!! We are still laughing. It was only a dollar for me to ride with Al:) My mother in law watched Paysen while we went too sweet. We then headed back to La Grande for the big firework show.. One year we want to watch them on the Lake they shoot them off in the middle of it. But too much with a new baby. So we watched them up at my in laws, and stayed in the car! We could see them perfectly. We then went home. It was a long day but a lot of fun! Here are some pictures...
