Stuff & more stuff.

Well I finally got that picture of Baby's new teeth!

Look at those two chompers in there!

Today Baby also ate her first steamed  chopped organic carrot and she LOVED IT! She chewed that bad boy like a champ!

big step for my Ellers she hates veggies, I have no clue where she gets it from.

Today baby had a Dr.'s appointment where we found out:

Poor boogie baby has a bad ear infection again ... but good news is

she is 70 percentile for weight

&

90 percentile for height !

If you know me, you know I'm all about matching mommy & baby outfits!

DENIM! & dirty house

Matching gold gladiator sandals & poorly manicured feet

 

My ill attempt to get a picture of the two of us & a cable cord 

Ellie is quite the busy body these days and is getting into things left and right! 

I tried to divert her by putting a tempting basket full of toys in front of her...

She deffinately knows how to get her toys out and she deffinately knows where to find them!

Her basket! Alex and I made a rule to only allow Ellie to have as many toys that can fit in this basket...

lets just say this rule was shortly lived, she is too fun to spoil! 

But I can say on her first birthday 

Every new toy she gets, she gives an old toy away!

Tonight we gave Ellie a bath & made an Ellie Taco

and it looks like this:

&  this:

 who needs a fancy towel hoody anyways when you can just hang your child out to dry in a taco towel suit?

The May family had a great & adventurous day !

Good night sleep tight!

Love always,

Alex, Britt 

& the star of the show

BABY ELLIE!

gerbil cheeks!

Money can't buy everything!

I need some money

so I can buy 

THIS 

 

THIS

and THIS

But as I was sitting here making a gorgeous list of all of the things I want in life, I stopped to think of all the priceless things I already have...

 I have something that is far better than any thing on this list of wants and that is family!

 

I love them so much.

There isn't any pair of shoes that can compare to the love my husband gives me

 

I am the luckiest wife, this morning I woke up to homemade heart shaped pancakes!

I have never met anyone so sweet, gentle, kind and loving!

Alexander the Great!

More things money could not ever buy:

 

The joy this little girl brings to our hearts! She is the most beautiful girl in the entire world!

 The way these two smiles can brighten my day.

My best friend and little sister 

and all the great times we share!

My father, my hero, and the most brilliant man I have ever known.

I wouldn't be who I am today if it wasn't for him. 

and every single one of these guys!

Don, Nancy, Billy, Katy, Easton, Asher, Kelly, Nick, Alex, Ellie, Dad, & Melissa...

I LOVE YOU! 

Sunday Funday!

What a beautiful sabbath day ! Filled with joy & laughter & family !

Today was:
- a great day
- the first Sunday I ever gave an opening prayer ever ( I spoke so fast I'm sure no one even heard a word I said)
- My nephew Easton Danger May's 2nd birthday!
- My other nephew Asher Rowdy May's first week birthday!

I love spending Sunday's with family! My mother in law is such a wonderful person to be around and is the kindest woman I know. Today she baked us up a little snack after church  THE BEST COOKIES I EVER HAD.  Molasses, oatmeal and chocolate chip cookies? To die for!

What a wonderful day I forgot my camera in the car and was not able to take pictures of Easton's birthday party or baby Asher (he is so stinking cute and might I add a BLONDIE! What a little heart throb).
My sister in law Katy is so wonderful & is such a good mama to her boys! You wouldn't believe how cute the "turtle" cake she made Easton was & delicious might I add.

Alex explaining a talk given at church today ... gosh he is so good looking. 

Did I already mention how good looking he is?

<3

HAPPY SUNDAY!

Smelly Ellie

Today Ellie lived up to her nickname! Ellie is notorious for ripping off her diaper and crawling around naked. Well she did it again! I come home from school to find Ellie’s blankie in the sink and my two lovers fast asleep. I immediately start questioning Alex why her handmade crotchet blanket was drenched in the sink and his reply simply was … Watch the video.

So I won’t give any further explanations… the video says it all. 

Breakfast with the May's

This is our typical morning . 

Why Hello

Doing dishes

Kissy kissy

Eating an avocado and naan.

Milk

The End.

Ellie's special day!

Ellie was blessed on 2-06-11! It was such a wonderful day!  My wonderful & amazing mother in law handmade her blessing dress! This little ray of sunshine looked absolutely stunning, she lit up the room! It was so touching and wonderful to get to see her dressed all in white, she looked like a little angel!

Here we are posing with our beloved Toyota Camry  and Ellie trying to drive the beloved Toyota Camry

Our family <3

We love you Ellie, so much. We promise to always be there for you and help you through the good times and the bad. We promise to hold your hand, kiss your "boo - boo's", snuggle, hug & kiss you each and every single day! I cant wait to see you grow up and watch you become such a wonderful young lady. Always remember how much we love you. For ever and always.

Troll can crawl & occasionally bites too!

My baby is MOBILE! She made her first move on Alex’s birthday on 2-12-11 and then all of a sudden stopped crawling until last night! Its official now she is all over the place! Getting into things and making messes & it’s the cutest thing ever!

 

She is also a giggle queen and daddy’s princess! It is the most adorable thing to come home & find your Husband and daughter snuggling on the couch playing XBOX (well at least to me it is).

She definitely takes after her momma with BIG feet.

  

There is no doubt in my mind… she IS a daddy’s girl! I no longer exist when he walks into a room she screams and cries for him to hold her and she even puts her arms up now to be picked up! She also has a first tooth but for some reason she refuses to let me take a picture of it, she bites me every time I try.

 

 

"You are my Goblin" -  Alex

I love my perfect little family, they mean more to me than anything in this entire world. I am so grateful for their love! I love spending every moment of every day with them. Any minute without them feels like a century! I love you guys! For ever & always. 

Alex last night in the car driving home as I'm growling and making faces at a Twix candy bar "You are my goblin" & we both look back at Ellie "...and she is our troll"

The cutest nicknames my husband ever gave us!

Run Brittini RUN!

Running a Marathon! Yes, it is true, I will and I am. It is a part of my “bikini” plan. I will be back in my itty bitty yellow polka dot bikini this summer even if it's the end of me. I hate to admit but I am maybe, just a wee bit, vain about my weight/body, so why not run a marathon and accomplish something with my “bikini” plan for this summer. Training starts tomorrow and boy am I stoked. Tired already and haven’t even started but I won’t let school keep me from accomplishing my goal of having the best bod on the beach! Determined, you can say so! 

 Might I add I think I know what Alex, Ellie and I will be this year for Halloween.

Family updates!

My baby is becoming such a little lady!

She is the greatest thing and is such a hoot!

She crawled for the first time on Alex’s 23^rd birthday & we haven’t been able to get her to go as far, but needless to say she is VERY very VERY mobile.

She loves to be naked! She rips off her diaper every chance she gets! I even find her naked in the morning in her crib snuggling with her blankie. 

                          ( caught in the act...)

She also uses our carpet as a potty which lead to me becoming a professional carpet cleaner!

( Her pee spot ... Naughty girl)

                                  ( look at all that hair !!) 

We celebrated Alex's 23rd this weekend, I told him he could have any thing in the entire world and I would personally make it for him, he chose to order dominos ( does  my cooking really stink that bad?) . Needless to say we had a riot googling dominos coupons and we wound up getting a BUTT LOAD of free deserts!

Alex has won an award from the National Society of Collegiate Scholars along and we both are now a part of PHI THETA KAPPA.  Alex is so amazing and he pushes me every day to do my very best! He is my hero and my other half, I love you Alexander with my whole heart!

Tonight : Heart shaped pasta, sparkling raspberry lemonade, heart shaped plates,  &  discounted valentine’s day chocolates for desert (who doesn't like the "day after sale"?) !

Our temple sealing is less than 1 month away! I can’t wait! We are having custom made clothes made for when we come out and we all have matching silver toms!

Billy & Katy welcomed a new baby boy on 2-13-11 Baby Asher <3 he is so handsome and itty bitty and is a healthy little 8lb. 8 oz bundle of joy! He looks just like his mama!  We are really excited to welcome him to the family!  We love you Asher!
