Pics of Ezra, Eldon and Kali

Here are some pictures from the past couple weeks.  Ezra has really grown and has changed a lot.

This is his first swimsuit, I wanted to see if it was going to fit.

Ezra with his best buddy Eldon Snell.

Kali helped bake the cookies that I ate too many of. They were so good... too good. I'm never making those again!

Here lies the Little Prince.

Some Randoms

Mother's day was nice, I had 4 pieces of bacon!  And we had bought KFC on Saturday for Sunday. Kali bought me candy and a "Love you Mom" Beanie Baby.

On a side note, I HATE the Monday after Mother's Day, clean the house from the previous day and wash the dishes.  Dads just don't clean like a Mom does.

Spence did an 8 hour adventure race with his Brother Ryan in Elkwater, it almost makes me want to do it next year.

Kali had a dance recital on Friday, she's a good dancer.  It was a hip hop class, I think Kali really likes it.  After the recital we went out to Marble Slab with our friends Cheryl and Justin and their super cute kids.  I had Chocolate Birthday Cake ice cream with brownies in a sundae, Mmmmm.

We had a 3rd ward reunion Weenie Roast for FHE last Monday.  Out of the seven families, only 2 of us have been kicked out of the ward, so it was awesome to hang out. And I love me a good weenie roast, I love excuses to have a fire and cook food on it.  I love Summer!!

Dinner with friends

So last Sunday there were some MAJOR changes to the ward boundaries in Medicine Hat, all the wards were affected.  I think our ward, 3rd, was hit the hardest.  We are now in a newly created ward, 4th ward, and we only have a few friends from our old ward.  A friend of mine and I decided that we would have little night out with our girls, and it turned into this awesome display at Moxies.

 Our girls had lots of fun, they love getting together and are all pretty good friends, I consider them all my friends too. After dinner Moxies turned into a play place, good thing they put us at the end of the restaurant.

Carmen, who is on the right left is Verenice's cousin visiting from Mexico.  But the rest of us were in 3rd ward except Reese who is currently building a house that used to be in 3rd ward.  Unfortunately, we are split now between 3rd, 4th, and 5th wards... seems to me that we are going to need these night outs more often, maybe without the  younger girls though. I will miss seeing these ladies so often, and now we need to make an effort to see each other more often.

Twins in a Moby wrap

I recently bought a Moby Wrap and was looking for an instructional video on YouTube.

I was curious when I saw "Twins in a Moby Wrap"

I found this video very entertaining. 

I am completely in LOVE with this boy!

It's so amazing to be a mother again of a newborn.  

I have had so many feelings that he is so close to heaven and wondered who he encountered there.  There are many loved ones beyond the veil, and many still to meet. How could one look at a precious babe and not know that God's hand is in everything?

I love having Ezra in our family, he is such a content baby.  He eats well, sleeps well, takes a pacifier, gives us the cutest gassy smiles, and he has dimples.  I can over look the discomfort I may still be feeling and I can honestly say that I have never been happier in my entire life.

I have such an amazing husband who loves to serve me and praises me for everything, he makes me feel so loved and beautiful, I love him so much.

My Kali is such a great sister and is so helpful, she loves Ezra so much.

Here are some pictures from the past 3 weeks.

Fran, who is the BEST, came over to visit and cleaned my shower with her Pinterest jewel: blue Dawn and Vinegar in a dish wand.

We have a baby boy!!

We welcomed Ezra James Torrie into our family last night.

We are so in love with him!

He was 8 lbs and 20 inches long.

 Spencer and is such a proud Dad.

Kali is a very excited and happy big sister.

And Ezra is such a wonderful baby and a little sweetheart.

Funny Studio C skit

So, we watched this episode of Studio C yesterday, and I think this is the first time I laughed at this show.  I guess it's funnier since I can relate to it.  I hope you enjoy it too.
