Carson blessed Ayzie on November 30th. It was a very nice blessing and he did a good job even though he was a bit nervous. I am so proud of him that he is able to bless our babies, it is such a wonderful thing. We had a lot of family come which is always nice to have the support. My dad even came and he has never been to one of my babies blessings so it really meant a lot. My mom made Ayz's beautiful dress and my sister Leah made her cute little headband. She looked like an absolute doll!
The next weekend my sister Leah blessed her baby Mckayle. My mom had also made her a blessing dress just like Ayzie's so of course we had to get pictures of them together! Aren't they so sweet!?

Halloween 2008
We stayed home and trick or treated at our townhomes this year. We all dressed up even Carson and the kids loved it that their daddy dressed up too! There wasn't very many people handing out candy this year, I think because of the trunk or treats, so they didn't get a ton of candy this year which is really good. The kids had a lot of fun.
Cole was a cowboy, Ellie was Belle, Ayzie was a cat, I was a witch, and Carson was a UFC fighter.

Carving Pumpkins
Every year the kids get to paint little pumpkins a couple of weeks before Halloween. It works out good because it holds them off a little bit longer from carving the big pumpkins. This year they talked us into carving the pumpkins 1 week before Halloween so every night I had to put them in our sink to keep them from rotting. I told them next year we will only do it a couple of days before Halloween. Ellie wanted just a plain jack-o-lantern face and Cole picked out a pirate ship.
Of course Carson and I did all the work but the kids loved them in the end.

The Pumpkin Patch
We went to Staheli Farms with the Lunt family. We rode on a tractor out to the pumpkin patch where we picked out a couple of pumpkins, then we came back and the kids got to pet all the animals and play the different games that they had. Cole's favorite part was roping the cows! (he is going to be a cowboy when he grows up!!! :) They also got to ride the little cow train. I thought they would be so scared but they loved every minute of it! It was so much fun. We love to do things with the Lunt's, they are always so much fun! Thanks for inviting us guys!!
Cole and Ellie got to go back the next week for field trips with their schools. They can't get enough of the farm!

We decided to get pictures done last week. I think they turned out really cute. These are the first pictures I have blogged of Ayzie since she was born.
Ayzie Lynn ~ 6 weeks old (isn't she a doll!)
Cole Carson ~ 5 1/2 years old (my little stud muffin)
Ellie Grace ~ 3 years old (our cute little princess)
The 3 kids. Ayzie couldn't keep her hands out of her mouth
The whole family!

First Lost Tooth
Cole lost his first tooth! I can't believe he is that big! He was so excited that he had a loose tooth and could not wait for it to fall out! The night the tooth fairy came he insisted on leaving her some money for bringing him money. I couldn't talk him out of it, so he put 70 cents under his pillow and the tooth fairy brought him a dollar. Now the tooth right next to the missing one is really loose. He looks so cute with his little black hole in his mouth. I love you my big boy Cole!

Ellie starts preschool
Life has been a little crazy lately so I'm a little late posting this but I had to do it for my Ellie Belly. Ellie started preschool (the day I went into labor). She loves, loves, loves it. It is so funny because I'm not used to a kid actually wanting and begging to go to school, it's so weird for me! She has the same preschool teacher that Cole did and Ellie loves Ms. Amber. I can't believe she is already 3 (going on 16!) You are such a big girl Ellie and I love you princess!
Look at her posing for the camera! She's a natural!!

Our Miracle Baby!
She's here! Ayzie Lynn Honey was born Sept 4, 2008 at 4:08 in the morning!(It was a long night!) She weighed 6lbs 12oz and was 18in long. It was the most amazing experience of my life! I went into the doctor sept 3rd for my appt and was dilated almost to a six, so he striped my membranes and we left, that was about 5:30 pm. We went out to dinner and by 7:45 pm I was having contractions. I actually went into labor on my own! We got to the hospital about 10:00pm and I had her at 4 in the morning. My longest labor yet! I was so scared to have her because of everything I knew we would be facing, and I was about to see how severe the cleft was. When it was time I started crying but new that I had no choice and couldn't turn back now. When she came out Dr. Lunt was just looking at her and he put his finger in her mouth, then looked at me and said, "there is nothing wrong with this baby!" I didn't believe him until he held her up for me, and then I saw that she didn't have a cleft, she was perfect! I started sobbing, Carson was crying, it was an emotional delivery room. Everyone was crying including all the nurses! For the rest of the time I was in the hospital everyone kept calling her the "miracle baby". That is exactly what she is, a miracle baby! The doctors were all stunned and couldn't explain it. Some people have asked me if I'm mad at the doctors for putting me through all of this, and I say there is no reason to be mad at them because it was there, there was a cleft. Carson & I saw it at all of our ultrasounds, and so did the Perinatologist and the ultrasound technicians! At all of my ultrasounds it was there every time. I now know the power of prayer and blessings. I feel like it was Heavenly Father's way of saying I'm really here and if you just have faith in me, anything is possible! It has been the most amazing experience of our lives!
Cole and Ellie adore her, and never stop looking, touching and holding her! I'm so glad that they love her and I don't have to worry about anyone being mean, but to be honest they are driving me crazy!! I'm constantly saying stop touching her, get out of her face! I'm sure everyone knows exactly what I'm talking about. Hopefully once the newness wears off it will be better, until then I just constantly have to have an eye on them at all times.
I can't believe we're a family of 5! I feel so blessed to have 3 beautiful kids!

Crazy Ellie!
I just had to post these pictures because I think they are hilarious! Ellie decided to put on her headbands all by herself! I asked her if she could see and she said, "no" so I asked her if she wanted me to fix it for her and she said, "No! I look like a pirate!" She is so goofy and is always making us laugh! I love you my Ellie Belly!
Toquerville Falls
Last weekend we decided to take the kids swimming (wading) at Touquerville falls. They had a lot of fun playing in the water, catching frogs, and watching crazy people do cliff diving into shallow water! We had a good time but I am really surprised I didn't go into labor from the horrible bumpy road. If that road didn't put me in labor I don't think anything will!
Baby Shower
My sweet friends Dorothy & Stacey decided to give me a baby shower. It was actually a breakfast, wear your comfies shower. It was a lot of fun! We had waffles, played some games, and visited. Thank you to all my friends and family that came, it really means a lot to me. Thank you so much Stacey and Dorothy for everything. I couldn't ask for better friends!
