Happy 7 years to us..

7 years ago...

5 min. ago...


Last weekend Noah and I celebrated our 7th anniversary. As I was looking through old wedding photos to put up I could not believe how young we both looked! I mean, we really were kids! I was 19 and Noah was 21. I think back and I did not have a clue what I was doing..thankfully I got lucky and married the greatest guy out there. Noah has taught me so many things..I don't know what I would do without him. Sometimes I think I rely on him too much..but it's only because he is always so willing to do anything for me without ever thinking twice. I love you Noah and feel like the luckiest girl in the world!!

An early arrival...

Hunter Brayden Arnett is here!
7 lbs. 3oz.
20 inches


He was scheduled to get here on the 26th but just couldn't wait that long. Kristina had him yesterday morning and mommy and baby are doing great. Hunter did break his collar bone while coming out so they need to be extra careful with the little guy. We love him so much and are so happy for this cute family.


The proud uncle!

An update from us

Last night I went to dinner with some Friends and they told me that my blog was boring. Well, I already knew that but I am going to try harder to spice it up and post more often.

Noah has started another semester at ASU. He should graduate this December if all goes as planned...we are crossing our fingers! I don't know how he goes to work full time has 3 classes and a lab and still puts 100% of himself into our family without one single complaint. He is such a hard worker and I love him for it. Noah just got the iPhone and loves it. That thing is way too advanced for me and I would never take the time to figure it out.
I am still as busy as ever with 3 kids in my life now. Between taking and picking up kids from school, feeding kids, playing with kids, clean up after kids, church calling, trying to get to the gym, and hanging out with Noah, it doesn't leave much time for anything else. But I know everyone else with three kids have survived just fine and so will I. I still have not finished Breaking Dawn! I can't stand that I can't finish it. I can't really get into it like the first three. It's definitely not my favorite of the four. My piano has for sure been on the back burner these days, but I plan to start back up soon. My friend Janel has challenged me to do the Irongirl (10 mile run) with her in December. I really want to do it but also cringe at the thought of running 10 miles. We will see.
Brody is getting too smart too fast! He is loving kindersteps. They had Grandparents day last week and he was lucky enough to have 4 Grandparents show up! Grandma and Grandpa Tyler, Grandma Arnett and Grandma Doane. He is learning to read small words, he loves to do adding and subtracting and just learned to tie his shoes! (I know..I'm totally bragging!) Brody had to have a root canal last week. Unfortunately is was a tooth that won't come out for 6 or 7 years so they couldn't just pull it out. He did great and it hasn't bothered him since! I took a pic of him after and he could only do a half smile because he was still numb. I thought it was hilarious!


Sadie is still loving pre-school. Her favorite thing to do at school is paint. She started dance last week with Brittney Smith. She loves it and looks so dang cute in her leotard. Sadie and I have finally had a break through with her potty training. I was trying everything and anything to get her to not pee and poo her underwear every single day and we have finally found it! I put the timer on for 20 min. and she has to go to the bathroom every time it goes off. She thinks it's so fun and actually goes about every 20 min.! The girl has the smallest bladder ever. We all win with this method!


Ronan continues to get cuter and cuter! He will be 5 months on the 17th. We love him so much. He is rolling all over the place now. He poped out 2 teeth a couple of weeks ago and they are so sharp...let me tell you! We have taken him swimming a few times the past few weeks and he absolutly loves the water. When he is in the bath he is all smiles the whole time. I gave him rice cereal for the first time yesterday and he did ok. It will take some getting used to. He might of swallowed a 10th of what I gave him. He was a mess!

Have a great weekend! We will be spending ours up North, camping with Noah's family. I can't wait!

Also...Noah and I have finally decided to do the Halloween party again this year! It's going to be the best yet, so start thinking up a good costume now!!
