Sick Thanksgiving :(

We had a bit of a rough Thanksgiving week. It all started Monday night when I threw up once before bed. I thought oh gosh I better not be pregnant. Then the next day my stomach felt awful. Tuesday night I started feeling worse and worse. That night Vaughn and I were both up all night running to the bathroom. A few times he was at the toilet so I had to run to the kitchen to throw up. Wednesday was awful trying to take care of a sick baby and being a sick mommy. Vaughn some how got himself to work so we could get holiday pay for Thanksgiving. When he got home the 3 of us were all just so tired.
Luckily Thanksgiving we all felt better. We went down to my Aunt Sheri's house. It was so great to see all the family. Even my dad's cousin Gaylene was there with her kids. We haven't seen her since we got married. Layla was quite the entertainer. She jib jabbed for a good 30mins and told everyone a story. We only got the last part on video when she started to fuss. But everyone was just laughing at her.
When we got back up to Salt Lake we went to Vaughn's Uncle John's house for their get together. We didnt stay long we were tired and couldn't handle the crazy kids that someone brought. That night I started the throwing up process all over again and Friday was so awful. Today I think we are finally all healthy. We are having a nice lazy day waiting for the Utah vs BYU game. We cant wait to see Utah kick their butts!

Layla is 4 months!




Layla turned 4 months on Saturday November 7th. We went to the doctors this afternoon. She hasnt gained very much weight since her 2month appt so the doctor told me to keep an eye on her weight gain over the next couple months but he says he's not too worried. She weighs 14lbs 7oz which is in the 69%. However, she has gotten very tall. She is 26 3/4 inches long which is in the 99%. She did very well with her shots just cried until I picked her up.
Layla has 2 new teeth. I cant believe she has teeth already. Her sleeping patterns have gotten worse. I'm so done with it. She eats 4-6oz every 2 1/2 hours. She loves her feet anytime she has her pants off up go her feet and she grabs them. She loves to roll from side to side but no rolling all the way over yet. She hates tummy time so she dosnt like to lift her head up when she's on her tummy but she has great control of her head. If you sit her up by pulling her arms she keeps her head with her body. She loves toys and can grab and hold them for long periods of time. She is a babbler and hardly is every quite she's always making some kind of noise.
It has gotten easier to set her down and have her be entertained for longer periods of time so that is nice.
I'm so excited to enjoy the Holidays with her. We have so much fun watching her diffrent milestones. Hopefully she will hit the sleeping through the night one sooner then later.

Halloween 2009


We had a pretty good Halloween. We didnt carve our pumpkins till the night before but oh well. Here's our pumpkins. I didnt get a picture of Vaughn's.

Layla's Pumpkin

Layla was a flower. I was going to take her out to see some family and friends but she passed out before we could go. Our friend's Cori and Justin stopped by with their daughter Shaylee to say hi though.




We took Layla to her Grandma Bighams for the night and Vaughn and I went to our friend Jared's Halloween Party he has every year. I dressed up as a witch and Vaughn was a Black Eyed Pea.



Here are some more pictures from the party we went to.
