Lunch at Maddox

This weekend my mom and dad flew into Salt Lake for my Aunt Jan's funeral in Brigham City, Utah. Since we were already planning on visiting Jake's family in Moroni, we decided to drive up to Brigham City to see them. It was so great to see my parents and brother and sister-in-law. Here we are after a delicious lunch at Maddox.

"If You're Happy and You Know It....

By the way, Connor is 11 months old today; can you believe it?!

Funny Faces

Whenever we try to take Connor's picture lately, he always squints because of the flash. It makes for quite a funny face, but we rarely get a picture with his eyes open lately. Here's what I mean.

So Jake decided he wanted to be like Connor, and made the same face...we think he may have started a trend

Here's a decent one

Even though I cut several inches off my hair, Connor still tries to chew on it. Yuck!

Our Very Own Popeye!

Our Visit With Great Grandma

This weekend we were able to visit my Aunt Rhea and Grandma Rosvall in St. George, Utah. It was the first time they had seen Connor since he was born. These two women have been such a great example to me in my life. I'm so grateful to be living so close to them now and hope to be able to visit them more often...

I think Grandma looks pretty good for being 94!

Fun In The Tub

We're not sure what was so funny to Connor, but we thought we'd share this cute video clip with you.

Where Did He Go?

The other morning I set Connor down on the floor in the living room and went to start the laundry. I was maybe gone for 2-3 minutes and thought that since I had set him down with all of his toys, I'd come back and find him where I left him. I'm sure all of you moms out there that have mobile children are laughing, but I'm new at the whole crawling thing. So, when I came back into the living room he was no where to be found. I looked in all of the nearby rooms, and I couldn't find him anywhere. Finally after searching for 5 minutes, I heard a noise back in bathroom to our bedroom. I walked in to find this...


Connor found a box of tampons... Needless to say, I made sure our home was baby proofed a bit better after this experience. Rookie mistake!

Stroller Rides

Nevada is great this time of year! The lows are in the 40's and the highs, sometimes in the 70's. Connor and I take full advantage of the sunshine, by taking a walk everyday. It's great; I get a bit of exercise and Connor gets to munch on Cheerios while watching the cars go by. I figure we'd better enjoy the weather while we can; I'm sure the summer temperatures will be brutal!

Connor is Finally Crawling!

Happy Valentine's Day

Connor was excited to get this Elmo doll for Valentine's Day. This particular Elmo blows kisses; Connor was just kissing him back, I guess.

Our Move to Nevada

We were informed by Jake's company over the holidays that we'll be moving to Mesquite, Nevada at the first of the year (for those of you who are counting, yes, that's 3 moves in the last year and a half). We're actually pretty excited to be moving back to the west; however we are sad to be leaving behind some great friends in Ohio and unfortunately, we won't be as close to my side of the family anymore.

All Ready For Church

I just couldn't resist sharing these photos of Connor in his new outfit he got for Christmas. What a handsome little guy!

Funny Faces

I don't know what it is about Connor lately, but he loves to make these funny faces while he's eating. He sure is entertaining!

I Passed!

After many long hours of hard work over the last year, I managed to pass the CPA exam! What a relief to have that over with!

Happy Anniversary!

Wow! Two years Jake, can you believe it? I just wanted to let you know how much you mean to me. All of the joy I experience in my life, I attribute to you. Thank you for being the steady rock in our family and for always putting a smile on my face. You are such an amazing husband and father; I couldn't imagine going through this life with anyone else by my side. Who would have thought that shy kid I sat next to in business class 3 years ago would have made a girl like me so happy?

Connor's First Christmas

Oh How I've Missed My Old Friends!

It was great to meet up with some of my friends from high school while home in Virginia for the holidays. It had been about 5 years since I had seen most of them! I guess that's what happens when you decide to go to college 2000 miles away....eeesh! I need to do a better job of keeping in touch...

Rosvall Family Pictures

It's not too often that the Rosvall's are all together for a family picture! Here we all are along the James River in Richmond, Virginia...there wasn't one picture where Connor was looking at the camera. I think it's funny how he seems to be looking up at all of us as if he's saying, "what are you guys smiling at?"

Early Christmas w/the Blackham's

Last week we were able to make an unexpected trip to Utah to attend Uncle LaMont's funeral. It was nice to see everyone for the holidays. Here a just a few pictures from our trip.
