"Throughout our lives, we must deal with change. Some changes are welcome; some are not. There are changes in our lives which are sudden, such as the unexpected passing of a loved one, an unforeseen illness, the loss of a possession we treasure. But most of the changes take place subtly and slowly. Day by day, minute by minute, second by second we went from where we were to where we are now. The lives of all of us, of course, go through similar alterations and changes. The difference between the changes in my life and the changes in yours is only in the details. Time never stands still; it must steadily march on, and with the marching come the changes. This is our one and only chance at mortal life—here and now. The longer we live, the greater is our realization that it is brief. Opportunities come, and then they are gone. I believe that among the greatest lessons we are to learn in this short sojourn upon the earth are lessons that help us distinguish between what is important and what is not. I plead with you not to let those most important things pass you by as you plan for that illusive and nonexistent future when you will have time to do all that you want to do. Instead, find joy in the journey—now. Let us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey, and share our love with friends and family. One day each of us will run out of tomorrows. " Thomas S. Monson

One Month Old....


Today Kiptin turned one month old...seriously already? I cant believe how fast it has gone by, i remember with kaylin i couldn't wait for each mile stone to come and i just loved watching him grow up...I'm regretting that now cause he is so big and i want my little boy back, and now with kiptin i just want my little newborn to stay that way, He is getting such a cute personality now and is so much more alert and aware of who is talking to him, i love that!
It has been so much fun having a new baby in our house again, and yes a little crazy at the same time with a wild 3yr old but so much fun i wouldn't trade it for anything in the world, they are such a great blessing to us and such perfect boys, they have truly shown us what life is REALLY about!

Here are a few things about kiptin at one month old!
*He is almost 9lbs already
*He is about 21 to 22 inches now
*He smiles ALL the time
(but i have yet to get ANY of them on camera cause I'm not
fast enough with the button)
*He is almost out of his NEWBORN clothes
(I'm kind of mean...i squeeze him into the ones i love just
cause I'm not ready for him to be out of them yet)
*He is pretty much out of NB diapers 8(
*He holds his head up so good and for a pretty long time too
*He really hates to be swaddled
*He is a Fire Ball...seriously he makes you sweat whenever you hold him.
*He has the cutest dimples ever.
*He love's to snuggle with his mommy!!!
*He is a really good baby
*and last but not least....HE IS PERFECT!

good advice!

Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man's rib, not from his feet to be walked on, not from his head to be superior, but from his side to be equal! Under the arm to be protected, & next to the heart to be loved.
