Ayla's New Bling Bling!

We finally did it! I've been wanting to get Ayla's ears pierced for a couple of months, but I was quite nervous. I was 4 years old when I got mine, but I personally feel it would be better to do it young enough when it can't be remembered. I really wanted to get her these really cute flower ones, but Milton didn't want her to have too much bling. So, I said that he could pick them out only if he held her while they pierced her ears. I'm really glad he did! She wasn't happy come the time to do the second ear, but the moment they were through and I picked her up she was just fine.

Girls Night Out!

I have the best adopted family ever! Maxine took us girls (me, Laura and Brittany) to dinner at Fazolis, to the Nutcracker and then out for some Starbucks. While we were downtown we stopped to admire some of the Christmas lights.

I had the best time and a much needed break! Hanging out with the Gagon girls is always full of fun and laughter, which is always directed at Maxine.

I was a bit nervous leaving Ayla for so long since she has been refusing a bottle since she was two months old, but I figured Daddy would be able to handle it. I came home to find out that Ayla had taken the bottle like she had been doing it forever and was out like a light until 7 this morning!

Thanks again Maxine, I love you!

Ayla Meets Santa & His Reindeer

We took Ayla yesterday to meet Santa. The line was quite long, but luckily there were a lot of kids and decorated Christmas trees to keep her entertained. I think that Ayla could really care less about Santa Claus!

However, she really liked his reindeer. I was just hoping that they were friendly and wouldn't gore me with their antlers.

Ayla is learning new things every day and continues to amaze me with how much she has learned in just a mere 4 months! Yesterday was the first time that she was able to grab her chupone (pacifier) and put it back into her mouth. It took a few tries...

but she did succeed!

Ayla's Early Christmas Present

Ayla and I woke up from our naps today to find a new present under the tree! Papa had went to Costco and picked up a Bounce-About (a toy that I was really wanting to get Ayla for Christmas). Of course, we were a bit to excited to wait until Christmas day so we decided to go ahead and let her have any early present since she is in need of something new to entertain herself with when I am busy.

She wants everything to be in her mouth these days!

She has become quite the talker.

Our 3 Year Anniversary

Today is our 3 year Anniversary! Three years ago I walked down the aisle with my Dad (I actually think I may have ran a bit) and two years ago we made our marriage eternal through the sealing power at the LDS Manti Temple.

We really didn't do much today other than lay around and watch movies since there is too much snow for Milton to work and we didn't care to do anything after the very busy weekend we had. However, we did manage to get out for dinner while Tia Vanina watched Ayla.

Life has truly been an adventure and I am so glad that I have Milton to share it with! He has been such a great friend, husband and father. Ayla is truly blessed with a Papa that is very involved with everything from changing her diaper to singing her songs.
