4 years and much more!

January 20th Nic and I celebrated our 4 year anniversary. It's crazy that another year has came and gone of our life together already. Nic got me some beautiful flowers and a very sweet card. It's nice to see his sweet side every once in a while. I am so grateful for Nic and the great husband and father he is! I couldn't imagine life without him and I hope I never have to experience it. He is my best friend and the only person that can make me so mad one minute and have me laughing so hard I'm crying the next... We were able to go to the temple and out to lunch. Nic's mom watched the kiddos. It was nice to go and remember covenants we made 3 years ago to heavenly father and eachother. I look forward to many many years with Nicholaus Kurt Despain and I am so glad he's patient enough to put up with this crazy woman! LOL!

Kamden is 6 months old! I can't believe it. He just cut his second tooth. It looks like he is going to teeth like Taya, she cut two teeth at a time. He is SOOO close to crawling he used to just go backwards, then he was able to go side to side and now he is slowly figuring out how to go forward.... I'm afraid I may have my hands more full than I want!! Any way Kamden's growth has slowed he is 17lbs 13.5 oz and 26.25inches putting him in the 50% for everything. He's eating us out of house and home though he nurses 4 times a day, has a bowl of cereal and a jar of fruit baby food in the morning, 2 jars of vegetables in the afternoon, and cereal and a jar of fruit and sometimes a jar of vegetables in the evening. He's turing into quite the happy lil man! He makes me laugh so hard and adores his sister. She likes to push him in the cart at the store and everytime they both end up laughing so hard at each other! It makes me smile and makes our shopping trip alot more enjoyable for everyone! But I still think he is the sweetest when he is sleeping even if it is in his bouncer! Poor baby!





Mataya is growing up quicker then I would like to admit. She is so smart. She loves to help cook and do the dishes and is a big help with brother! She can sing the whole first verse of "I'm a Child of God" and loves to tease! She is obsessed with Dora and can now count to 10 in spanish!(she only gets to watch it twice a week too!)She is a Sunbeam now and loves Primary! I think it helps that half the time I am there with her. She loves our neighbor Madden Hall and Marcus Pixley is one of her best buds! She was super excited to get to have her cousin Teagan over to play too and to go to Grandma and Grandpa Biglers to play in the snow and with ERIC. She thinks that beast turning into a human is "hmmm that's strange!"






Nic ran his first Marathan. He did the PF changs Rock N' Roll Marathon On January 17th. He ran 26.2 miles in 6 hours and 26 min. He was tired and very sore afterwards. Infact he tore a tendon in the top of his foot. He says that he will never do another marathan unless he trains first. I think that's a great idea! We are so proud that he did it though!


As I mentioned we did go to Heber to go play in the snow. A funny story, on our way up to Heber there was a Semi truck stuck in the middle of the road. There were quite a few irratated people so nic drove past a couple trucks and got out and talked with the driver. Nic said that he could try and pull him up the hill but he wasn't sure if he could do it. So they hooked everything up and after a couple minutes Nic was pulling the truck up the hill. As you can imagine people were laughing at the site of our Ford pulling the Semi along with ease, and Nic I think grew 2 inches... He just kept laughing and saying, "Now that is FORD TOUGH!" LOL.




We did have fun in the snow! We went sledding burried Nic and Taya and him made a chair out of snow! It was a great time and we enjoyed getting to see my mom and dad and Brian's family. We also drove to snowflake and saw Grandma Holladay and got to go to dinner with Tobi and the kids. We love you all and it was great to see you!
