My baby is already 2 months old. I can't believe it. She has grown so fast and I love when she smiles and coos at me, it makes my day. The girls love her and have been really big help. With the warmer weather that has come we have made a few family trips. The river is really full from all that snow we have gotten so Shoshone Falls has been amazing this year. We have gone as a family and then I took my mom and Jordan and then we took my whole family when they came for Brynli's blessing. And we took them to Caldron Linn, they are both amazing. The mist off of Shoshone makes it feel like it is raining so it is kind of cold and we got pretty wet but I think it is worth it.

We have been working on our concrete counter tops for probably a month now. It has been fun working with Doug on them but I am really excited for them to be done. The night we poured them the girls and I went out and played in the shop and then went home so the girls could go to bed and I tried waiting up for Doug but got tired and gave up. When Brynli woke up to eat at 2:30 that morning Doug was still not home. I got really worried. He finally called me back and told me he was on his way home. When he walked in he looked like this.

Easter was also very fun. Saturday we went to Doug's parents house and had an Easter party with his whole family. It was really fun and we got spoiled in the Easter egg hunt. Sunday the girls woke up and did really well finding Easter eggs around our house but they are still finding them here and there today. We got to spend the day together and relaxed, it was a very enjoyable day.

I think Macy's mouth has been full of candy for two days now she is loving all the chocolate. I am so grateful for our family and that we can be together forever. I am so grateful for our savior and the sacrifices which he made for us so that we can return to him and be together as a family. We are so blessed.

Well the time finally came for us to have a baby. We decided that I needed to be induced since Macy was such a large baby so we set up a time on February 10. Our family was so excited the girls and I made a chain of when the baby was due and we tore off the extra days after we had set up the induction. The only worry I had was the freeway was closed because of flooding and the other routes to Burley from Shelley had a possibility of closing so I was worried my parents would have trouble getting here.  My family had started the guessing the gender and size text a couple days before and only a couple of hours after everyone had guessed I got a phone call from the hospital and they told me they could not deliver on the 10th so they would have to push me back to the 11th. I was so bummed. I did my best not to think on it and surprisingly only cried a tear or two. The morning of the 10th was the hardest though I was already sad because I was supposed to be in the hospital, instead Doug was at work and I was bathing the girls. My parents were going to come that day (the freeway had opened up hooray) so that gave me something to look forward to but they called and said they were going to be later then they had hoped so I was then really depressed. About 20 minutes later I got a call from the hospital and they said they could take me at noon. I called Doug and then my parents and told them they had to get here so they worked things out and everyone was here just in time. During the waiting time I was rushing to get everyone packed and last minute things prepared so I was stressed and I was really nervous so I had to keep calming myself down. When we got to the hospital there wasn't much time to think they got me all hooked up and started the pit. The epidural didn't work perfectly so I was in a lot of pain but things went really fast. We finally got to meet our little girl Brynli Lou Hurst.

The girls got to come to the hospital later that night and meet her. They just kept looking at her and thought she was pretty great. Macy didn't hold her too long before she said heavy and past her off.

They went home with my parents until Monday so we got to spend some time relaxing and enjoying the baby. Doug got pretty bored without the girls keeping him busy but I enjoyed the time even though I missed them a ton. They had a ton of fun with Grandma and the cousins though.

I am so happy to have our family back together again and being able to enjoy this baby and helping the girls with her. They sure love her and we are all so happy she is here.

I can't believe I didn't blog about Christmas, all the snow we have been playing in and Macy's birthday... OK I can believe it but I am sad that it has taken me this long. It's been awhile so I will let the pictures do most of the talking.
We had a lot of fun for Christmas, we did our best not to rush ourselves and we had a really good day as a family, we were all pretty spoiled.

 Macy had to hand us every piece of paper she tore off and the whole box had to be free of paper. It took awhile.

 When Addison opened Anna she immediately ran into the other room saying where is my Elsa then when she found her she had them dance and sing together, it was pretty cute.

 Macy got an alphabet toy and would hardly open her other presents when she finally would she had to have it sing before she would start unwrapping.

We got a ton of snow this winter. In one day we got about a foot, I thought it was pretty fun.

Doug had a few days off because of the weather which was nice. Doug and our neighbor borrowed the skid loader to move all the snow, and Doug and Addison built a slide out of the pile of snow. She loved it and used it every time she went outside, which she asked to do often. Macy however is completely content to stay inside where it is warm. Most of the time we would get all dressed and go out and the next thing I know Macy is standing at the door crying because she can't get in. We did eventually get her to like it and she would stay out a little longer. Doug helped Addison build several snowmen though and she loved every minute of it.

 We also celebrated Macy's second Birthday. We kept telling her she was turning two but she would grin and shake her head when she said two. We finally got her convinced that it was her birthday and she is two. Of course we had to have a monkey cake, its her favorite animal. We are so grateful this little girl is in our life to constantly keep us smiling.

We have had a great time this winter and I am kind of sad all that snow is gone but winter isn't over so maybe we will get a little more so I can go play with the girls. These girls always keep me on my toes and always have me smiling. I love the time I get to spend with them and I am so grateful for the blessings they are in my life.
