Sophie's 6 Months Old


My angel

Little princess

I love her eyes

I can not believe my baby is 6 months old. Time is so weird how it can just go so fast. Looking back it seems like I was just pregnant. Not only that but it seems like we were just barely starting medical school and now Matt is getting ready to graduate. Sadie was 3 and Connor was 1 when we moved here. As you can tell, I am dealing with some pretty big changes. Exciting, but sad too! I love this little girl more then I could ever express in words, which is probably why I show it in emotion - unfortunately!!

Whitney's Birthday


Whit and me

Helping her get ready

She never wears make up so it was fun to dress her up

All of us at lunch

The girls at the movie

Sadie even got to go, she says she's "in love" with Troy

At dinner

We were able to be up in Idaho for my little sister's birthday. I love her so much and we had so much fun. We went to TGIF's for lunch, then went shopping at the mall, and then all the girls went to High School Musical 3. I love that show - have I ever mentioned that before?? After the movie we went to dinner. Whitney is the most darling thing ever and I adore her so much. I have been bonded to her since the first day I saw her in the hospital when she was born. I love you Whit, thanks for being one of my most cherished friends.

Sophie Update

My sweet baby


My little angel is 5 1/2 months now and I just wanted to write about what she is doing so I don't forget. She is rolling all over the floor. She is getting her two bottom teeth in. Which is so early for my kids. Sadie and Connor were almost a year before their first tooth came in. She says "da da" and "na na" and "ga ga". She holds onto things and loves to put them in her mouth. She has brought me so much joy. More then I could have ever hoped for or thought possible. I am so grateful for her. I thank Heavenly Father for my precious miracle.

Peterson Christmas Party

I had to do a slideshow because our family is insane with pictures. It was so much fun. We had tons of good food, the gift exchange was amazing, and we played games, and watched our favorite Christmas movie. It was so fun just to be all together - we missed Dallin a ton though, but we know he is doing great things in England. Thanks mom and dad for such a fun party!

Oh, Sadie

Connor was sound asleep and Sadie came in and said, "Mom, Connor is making weird noises." Then she paused for a sec and then asked, "Can children snore?"

"Big Girls Don't Cry" by Fergie was on the radio and Sadie said, "Mom, what is this song?" So, I told her and she said, "but, mom you cry".

She came in with high heels and said, "Now I look like I am seven!"

It was so fun this year. We went and got our own little Christmas Tree. The kids were so excited and even though it was cold, it turned out to be the best memory. Sadie and Connor decorated it and it made Christmas morning so special.
