Dave’s mom has a fun tradition of hanging baby shoes on her Christmas tree as decorations. As such, she gifts each of her grandkids with shoes as an infant. Once they grow out of them, they are returned to her to take their place on the Christmas tree. I think its a pretty neat tradition. […]

Valentine’s Day!
February 14th, 2009 · No Comments · bridget, dave, family, random, spencer, tina
Happy Valentines Day everyone! Valentines Day has never really been a major holiday for me. Sure its nice to celebrate with the people you love, but I’ve never really thought that things needed to be extravagant or overdone. Maybe I’m weird or crazy – I don’t know. I think its a great excuse to celebrate, […]

My parents came up to visit a couple of weeks ago, on New Year’s day. While they were here Bridget and Grandma got in some serious bonding time. I think they both had a great time! Thanks Grandma! Bridget had a ball!

With the craziness that is life I managed to neglect this blog a bit over the past several months… at least as compared to my once daily posting regime. As such, many events and life happenings manged to go undocumented. Rather than pretend that I could really catch up and write a post for each […]

Spencer is 1 month old today! Wow. Just over a week ago we took Spencer off the oxygen, spent a couple of days testing his saturation levels, and finally last week we returned the oxygen tank and the monitor to Intermountain Home Care. The day we took it off of him I just kept singing […]

Last night Bridget had an accident at a friends house. When we got home (around 8:30) I made her go straight to bed. Not 20 minutes later she was complaining that her tummy hurt. She asked me to rub Vicks on her tummy – she was convinced it would work. A few minutes later she […]

Our Christmas was a little bit hectic this year, but it was great! We found the time to do some fun Christmastime activities together, indulge in some Christmas goodies, and spend time together. We saw Santa, made gingerbread houses, and decorated. And even though gift purchasing was still in full swing on Christmas Eve, we […]

We decided to take some pictures of the kids on Christmas day for our holiday cards – and then I had my dad take a few of our whole family on New Years Day. Aside from a random picture of all of us sitting on an unmade bed with mismatched pj’s and mangled hair… this […]

The biggest sister you’ve ever seen!

As I mentioned in the last post, we were able to bring Spencer home from the hospital a couple of days before Christmas. He had spent 9 total days in the NICU. During which time Bridget was unable to hold him, and only rarely got to see him through the glass window. It was hard […]
