For the First Time

So i am new to this thing, I have seen many friends with blogs and thought it was our turn!
So here is some background....

Today is December 11Th, Mandy our second daughter was born on the 7Th of November weighing 8 lbs 11 oz. She was 19 1/2 inches long! she was weighed yesterday at 10 lbs 14 oz she is now 1 month and 4 days old.. big girl i know. She smiled for the first time two days ago in reaction to me talking to her.. Yeah for milestones!

Kate is a good big sister, she is now potty trained after a week a trying. She loves to hold and kiss Mandy but sometimes gets jealous when daddy holds her. She can count to 12 and say her ABC's... she knows the colors red, blue, yellow, green. She memorizes things like crazy so you have to watch what you say.

Mike is finishing up this semester... only two more days to go. He still has 2 1/2 years left in the architecture program at the U... He will get his bachelors finally this spring and we hope he can continue at the U of U for his masters but we still must apply at other states just in case.
He works for the best boss in the world at Curtis Miner Architecture in Orem.

I am at home with my girls. I may have to return to work in January but we are still seeing how that will work out. I have been busy trying to patent my Birthing gown Idea and making comforters for my family. I have been feeling great this second baby round. I was scared but so far Baby Blues haven't really hit me... and I haven't been as tired as i thought i would be since Mandy sleeps 6-7 hours straight every night YEAH! I love my little family and as soon as mike is about done with schooling, we will expand. So for now I must go take care of the girls and as soon as i figure out how to blog i will post more exciting information!
