Oquirrh Mtn Temple Open House

What an awesome experience to get to take our kids through the temple. We are so blesssed to live so close to so many temples. It was absolutely beautiful. The kids were taking in everything. They loved all the pictures and paintings of Christ.

All about Lillie

YEs I know. I need to put more about the other 2 kids! LOL

But here are me and my girls :)

and my baby girls absolutely adorable smile!

Her first pony (short lived due to the redness it created)

her first taste of cereal

A few randoms from JUNE

Yes, from June. And from my phone no less! I finally got around to emptying it off onto the computer so here are some random things.

This was the first time I painted Lillie's toes. Amazing I didn't do it for 4 months! Cherry's were painted at 4 weeks!

Cherry being a goof ball

My super cheesey boy

Lillie putting herself to sleep by holding her hair. Has been doing this since the day she was born!

Date night at the Drive In

It isn't very often that James and I get to go out on dates. But occasionally I like to surprise him and save up for us to do something fun. We are freaks for Transformers, so I HAD to go opening weekend. I thought the drive in would be so much fun. Well let me inform you now, DO NOT SEE IT AT A DRIVE IN. It was so hard to follow with the screen so far away. The people smoking next to us and the truck lights shining into our car. grrr. Did I mention Lillie was with us too? Ya, not so much fun with the smoke. We still had fun and the movie was AWESOME! But I need to see it again in comfy seats and killer surround sound.
Of course I had to take some picts with my phone!

Family trip to the zoo

The kids have been beggin for months to go to the zoo. I seriously think they could go every single day and not get bored. SO off we went on Friday. It was tons of fun. The kids had a blast! Even Lillie was fascinated by everything.

This little bird is one of Cherry's favorites! He comes right up to the glass as if he can reach you.

Me and my babies

Daddy and his cute kids

Our little angel!

Let Freedom Ring!

Watchin the Murray parade right out front. The kids all loved it. Especially when they throw candy :P
Even Brooks and Kesia joined in!

BDay cake for Aliyah And Kesia

This cake took me for forever to make! Not to mention all my mess ups. But despite it sinking when I added the top layer, it still turned out pretty dang cute!

Happy Birthday!

2nd trip to the zoo

Yep, I went again. This time I left the toddlers with daddy for a nap and me and Lillie went and hung out with my fam. It was tons of fun!

FIREWORKS

We ended our perfect weekend with food, fun and firworks at Grandma Finleys.

Creative Time

My 2 page layout

Summer Time!!!

Those who know me know that I am all about the summer weather! I would skip winter if I could talk my hubbs into movin South! :D
I am hoping I pass that gene to my kids. LOL
I don't care if it's 100 degrees I will still go outside and play.
We had a blast spending a few hours at the kids cousins' house. Playin in a little pool and slip n slidin. The kids were in heaven!
And while Cherry and Damon got burned, and I got an even WORSE farmers tan, Lillie hung out in the shade workin on her paleness and talkin to the birds in the tree!
Summer time indeed~

Fathers Day (better late than never right?)

I did horrible and didn't actually get ANY pictures with daddy on fathers day! But that's ok right? I have none from Mother Day either :) I feel a father and kids photo shoot coming. hee hee He will be SO excited! LOL!
But here are the kids making a banner for daddy's day. Even Lill's!

Crackin the whip! Consider this my verbal notice :)

I have had it. So I am MAKING myself publicly vow to get to my goals.
What am I talking about?
My weight :(
That's right. My biggest struggle, my biggest fear and my biggest sore spot.
I was always the trim athletic figured girl. Until I got married and started having kids. And sure kids are some excuse. But really? No.
Not for me anyways.
The last 6 years of my life I have spent ballooning and struggling. Yes, I have had 3 beautiful babies and 4 miscarriages in 5 years. So I give myself some credit. My body has been through a ton!
But after seeing pictures of me from my grandma's funeral (bottom picture) I realized I look worse than I thought and I broke into tears. Sure at that time my baby was 7 weeks old. BUT, even at that I was already to my prepreggo weight and had been since the day i left the hospital. (I only gained 13lbs). So that just shows you how over weight I was to begin with. :/
But I know, that if I can get my butt in gear and reach my goals I will be a better mom, wife, sister, friend.. and just feel so much happier. I will tell you honestly, I don't get depressed. I am a pretty happy go lucky gal who takes things in stride as they come along. But my weight is one thing that does get me depressed.
I know I can do this! Last year my sis in law was getting married and I was so determined to not be a size 16 at her wedding! And guess what- with 2-3 workouts a day and eating good I lost 25lbs in 3 1/2 months. I was almost into a comfortable size 12!
Now I am the same weight as then, but a super tight size 12 :) but things look a LOT different from my last pregnancy. Ewwww.

So here I am, publicly admitting to all of you how much I hate my body.

And making my words into writing that by December this year- that is 6 months from now- I will have lost the 30 lbs I need to lose.

So you will see me posting about my progressions, my falls, my frustrations and my triumphs. Feel free to skip these posts! LOL
But maybe with a little extra pressure I can get there faster. I am going to make myself take monthly pictures so I can see the changes. I am keeping a food journal and I am working out EVERYDAY! (ok, at least 6 days a week).
Feel free to leave me advice and tips and what has worked for you!

Ok, enough ranting. Just so we are up to speed, I started this serious calorie counting, working out plan Monday.

And if you seriously read all of this. You are awesome! Thanks for listening to my whining!

new LO's

Finally!

I admit it. I am a month late on taking her blessing picts! But since the weekend weather was nothing but clouds and rain I decided I no longer had an excuse.
And I realize you are all robably so sick of seeing Lillie plastered all over here ;P
So I promise to come up with something new this week! Stay tuned....

I am in SO much trouble!

I am so in love! How could I not be? Just look at her!
She is my sweetness. I can't even begin to describe what an angel baby my Lillie is. She is a complete mommas girl and I am loving it. She is so snuggly and cuddly!

Just look at her sweet innocence! She has that look, that no matter how much trouble she will cause when she is 2, all I have to see are those big bright eyes and ridiculously kong eyelashes and I get suckered!

Even when she will give me that smart face (see her practicing already!) how can I get mad?

Oh my goodness I am so in love with my beautiful babies! All of them have this effect on me! But especially when they are so tiny and sweet.

Check out my new Blog!

Well, I have decided that since i have too much free time ( ha ha ha) I should start a new blog!
Ok, so really I have a lot of people asking me a lot of questions these days about my digital scrapping and other random things so I have decided to make a new blog :)

Holls Scrappin N' things!

It's a work in progress- but check it out and follow along. Feel free to ask questions! My focus I THINK will be the scraping but I may throw in some photography/photo editing too.

There is a link on the right hand column-- over there--
and also a new link to my photography blogs- ALSO a work in progress!

More from the beautiful Johnson Family

I absolutely LOVE shooting inside the family home! There is just such a sweetness and intimate feeling it gives. Tonii's bedroom is gorgeous! And the saying on the wall was so perfect for their new arrival.
Here are some favs of mine.

Aren't mommy and daddy gorgeous?! No wonder they have such beautiful babies!

Best Friends from the start

Oh Shelly Shelly, what are we going to do when our girls are the age we were when we met? Can we keep them from Vegas? :)
I had so much fun catching up with you and getting to see you again! I can't believe we see so little of eachother! Funny how a 2 hour drive brings such separation.
Your baby Ella is just as beautiful as can be! She was so fun to take pictures of! And so were you! You photogenic hot mamma!

For those who don't know about me and Shelly- we met back in 2001? While performing in this embarrassing little off broadway show - but we became fast best friends and have been ever since!
We both have 3 kids. Our middle boys are 2 months apart and our new baby girls are only 2 weeks apart!
Luv ya Shells!
here are my favorites!

Aren't our girls so cute! Just 2 weeks apart!

Baby boy B

There is nothin I love more than getting to hold, snuggle and take pictures of a tiny baby! Tonii- thank you so much for letting me come to your home and capture your tiny baby boy! Just 2 1/2 weeks old, he was born 4 weeks early. In these pictures he was the exact length and weight my 3 month old was at birth! Oh I miss that teenie tiny age already!
You have such a beautiful family Paul and Tonii!

An Old Piano Student Graduates

Last week I had so much fun shooting an old piano student. It's amazing how much time has passed and how much my students from that area have changed. But especially Ali. She is graduating this month!!! I can't believe it! She has grown into such a beautiful woman. She still makes me laugh like the old days. I sure have missed her and her mom and her brother and her dad! (I love their family!) Thanks Ali for letting me spend the evening with you! I had so much fun! And i can't wait to shoot your weeding ;) (don't worry mom- it is YEARS away!) hee hee Here are some of my favorites!

I miss scrapping!

I was doing so good at staying caught up. Then Lils grew out of that baby stage where they sleep all the time :) So I finally made myself stay up tonight and do a page! Feels so good!

These are some I did last month

A trip to The Gardens

I love shunshine! And this is why. Things are just so beautiful everywhere!

Our Little Man turns 3!

May 12, 2009
Damon is officially a 3 year old!
I can't believe how much time has passed since this little guy was in my belly and even just a tiny snuggle buggle!
Gone are those sweet, quiet, peaceful days. Here are the mischievious, trouble making, and yet still so sweet days!
I had to take him to do his favorite thing in the world! Dinosaurs and Sharks!!!
I had to change my plans when I found out our pass expired that day. So this was probably the last time for a long time.
But D and Cherry had soo much fun!

This is Cherry's favorite. She calls it her dinosaur puppy :)

Lillie was TERRIFIED of this HUGE Dinosaur! hee hee

They could play in the erosion for hours

The Cake

I had my first try at homemade fondant! And it isn't your typical icky (but pretty) fondant. It's MARSHMELLOW fondant! And so so yummy! It took me 2 tries to get the fondant to work btu I got it and I think for my first try this isn't too shabby :) I intend to keep making cakes this way!
So here is Damons dinosaur cake complete with prehistoric sharks (on the other side)

We finished up our super fun day in our new jammies and on our new pillowcase from Grandma Hanson! She is amazing and comes up with cute gifts!

My Tiny Isn't So Tiny

I still have a hard time believing, let alone accepting the fact that our little Lillie is already 3 months old! She has changed so much even just in the last month! Once we got all her allergies and digestive problems figured out it has been nothing but a happy and funny baby! Her personality is really starting to shine and I am so in love with her!
She is blowing raspberries, and cooing, and drooling and blowing spit bubbles. She smiles all the time! Yesterday she laughed for the very first time and it scared her! It was the funniest thing ever!
She is even on the verge of rolling over!

Her current stats:
Height: slightly over 23 inches- 75th %tile
Weight: 11 lbs 3 oz- 50th %tile

A Beautiful Blessing

First, I have to just say how proud I am of James. He is such a devoted and loving husband and father. I know he likes to think of himself as the "tough guy". But his sensitivity is what I love most. He has such a sweet soul and such a soft disposition. He just melted my heart all over again. Watching him as he held his baby girl all dressed in white. And the proud Father he is. He gave such a beautiful blessing to her I will never forget. He and I both cried. I am so grateful for all our family and friends that were able to come and share in this moment with us. I am so grateful for our gospel and knowing that I will always have my beautiful family.
Lillie was an absolute angel despite me forgetting her binky and her being sooo very tired. And she looked so beautiful too.

Our pictures didn't turn out but here are some of what I have. hopefully I can save a few more or "retake" them :) My poor family is picture abused!

I saw these little pink satin ballet shoes and had to get them!

New Favs

I am so lucky to have such a beautiful and willing sister for a guinea pig! Thanks Kesia!
I haven't even begun to go through the 362 shots we took, but I had to select a few of my favs and post them. I drove around American Fork and Lehi looking for some stellar Urban locations. I am so happy with these!

Random Things

The 3 kiddies all together. Kinda scary! LOL!

me and babes

This is Damons new way of doing his own hair. He uses my lip vaseline! It took several washes to get it all out! He is such a boy!

Posing with the big bear at the Quilted Bear- Damon is missing because he was too afraid to go near it. :P

DINOSAURS!! (again)

I think this was our last time for awhile. My pass is out. The kids will never know right? Just because it's one of their most favorite plaves to visit they'll forget about right? fat chance huh! Oh well.
We had tons of fun today though! And Aunt Christa came along too!

They had people actually in working on dinosaur bones. Damon thought it was pretty dang cool!

They could play in this erosion thingy for forever!

Me and Lils- now 10 weeks old! It is going by way too fast!

Christa and Lillie (Don't worry Christa, she's a mammas girl right now ;) JK!)

Happy Easter!

Easter was absolutely beautiful!
I will admitt, I wasn't very excited for the typical "easter" festivities this year. We are going on our 3rd week of some crazy sickness that all three kids have. And I mean it is HORRIBLE! Stuff coming out both ends, a nasty barky, juicy whoppy cough that sends them into a frenzy and they puke! I am getting sick too. So between no sleep and being sick I was- AM - beat. I can't recall ever being so tired in my life!
Even Easter Sunday morning I was so tired and thought- the kids will never know- let's just stay home so I can take a nap while James watches the kids :)
But I manned up. We didn't get our church in sadly because of being so sick. But we had our own special family time.
Then it was off to James' family for dinner and an egg hunt. The kids had so much fun! And were so cute looking for eggs as fast as they could. They got to play with their 2 little cousins they don't get to see very often. Nya and Bella. And they sure had fun! They ask all the time to play with them :)

So here are picts of our festivites. And the gorgeous day it turned out to be.


Can you believe she is already 2 months old!!!!
Lils is 23 inches and 10 lbs 6 oz!
I may actually get the chubby baby I've always wanted! Yeah! Wait till you see her little rolling thighs!

The hardest part is letting go

Well, we survived what turned into 2 days of driving out 2 days there and 2 days driving back from Nebraska! Nursing a tiny one and having 2 sick toddlers made for a long trip. But I must say I am quite proud of them. I think they were so good. Yes they got rowdy at times- but I would have too if I could have gotten away with it! Damon ear drums even burst the day after we got home!
Grandma Elsie's funeral was absolutely beautiful. It was peaceful and serene. yes sad too. I still haven't said goodbye and I won't. I don't say goodbyes. I say see you soon.
I loved having our family together again. It was so good to see my brothers I haven't seen in over a year! And all of our extended family too. It amazes me how close we all really are. Even after years of not seeing eachother things haven't changed. It is a beautiful thing.
So Thank You Grandma for bringing us all together again. I love you so so much. I miss you terribly. But I look forward to seeing you again.



Doesn't she look so beautiful and peaceful? I think so.

It's hard to think I may not see my grandpa again.

Missing just 1 brother here. Kelsey we missed you! Send me a picture and I will add you! There is a hole there for you ;)

Cherish Elsie, me and Grandma Elsie. This picture is priceless.

I have to share this little story. Cherry is old enough that she somewhat understands death. We lost James Grandma last year too. So I took her up to where grandma was laying and explained to her all about how when we get old our bodies get tired and Heaven;y Father brings us back to be with him so we won't hurt anymore. Cherish said "ok" and was fine the day of the viewing. She did good through the funeral services the next day too. But when we were ioutside as they brought the casket out to the hertz (sp?) she looked at me panicked and said "where's grandma going? She going to wake up now?" So I had to tell her No, Grandma is going to sleep for forever now. That her body is going to be buried and her spirit is here with us now. She lost it. She started crying and kept asking to go with grandma Elsie. It tore my heart! I didn't know what else to say so I just cried. We got through it though.
Our first day home I was in her room cleaning her toys. She brings me a play phone and says "Mommy it's Grandma Elsie" I was totally taken by surprise and I got that ache in my heart remembering again that she is gone. So I said "what?' She said again, "Mommy Grandma Elsie is on the phone. Say Hi." So I took the phone and fought back the tears, "Hi Grandma Elsie". Cherry took on Grandma's part "Hi Hollie." I said "I miss you Grandma". Cherry said " I am ok now."
I got chills and cried.

Makes me wonder, was it Cherish's innocence in understanding my worries and my fears? Or was it my Grandma telling me she is ok now through my daughter. Either way I am at peace and that is a moment I can never explain fully how it made me feel.

Spring Bows and Pictures

Another set of grougeous bows from Tammy at
www.tagleenterprises.com

Damon was very jealous he wasn't getting his picture taken so I threw on his Easter outfit to match the girls.
And he was so happy!
I think for 3 kids this is a pretty dang good pciture!

Doesn't her little smile just make you smile back!?

Saying GoodBye

It has come to that day that I never wanted to face but always knew I would have to. Saying goodbye to my favorite grandma. It is so much harder than I ever imagined it would be. Despite knowing how old she was and how much pain she was in and how miserable she was living, I still don't want to say it. And I am not ready for it.
I won't say goodbye to my Grandma Elsie. I will just say " See you soon. I love you so very much. I miss you so deeply already my heart is aching. I am so blessed to have had you for my grandma. And so grateful my daughter Cherish Elsie will carry your name for forever. You will always be a part of us. In spirit and in name."
My fondest childhood memories come from time spent in Nebraska with them. The horse wagon rides, the venison stew she made me sit there for 3 hours staring at because I wouldn't eat it.. The threats with the wooden "spoon" on the wall that had holes drilled in it. The sleepovers at her house. The smell her home always had. Sitting and talking to her for long times. Listening to her stories of my mom. Trips to Utah with them. Hooking my granpa's finger when he was baiting my fish hook :) Her cooking. Going through her photoalbums with priceless aged pictures. Family Christmases and Thanksgivings with more family than you can even dream of.
I guess when I think of her that is exactly what she reminds me of in one word. FAMILY. It was always a family gathering. And always a good time. She was an amazing grandma. And as such I know she was an amazing mother, sister, daughter and friend.
So we head out tomorrow on our long drive to Nebraska where all these memories are. I can not wait to see all of our family again. It has been too long. I am excited for that. I am terrified of so many things too. Seeing my mom and her siblings say goodbye to their mom. It is going to kill me. Seeing my granpda all alone with out her. It is going to break my soul. Having Cherish say goodbye knowing she doesn't fully understand. but she knows she is with jesus and she is happy.
I am going to be strong. I need to be for my mom and for my kids. I will take pictures or I know I will regret it.
I need to go clean my house and finish laundry and get things ready to go but I have no energy. But it felt good to get this out and off my chest. If you have read this whole thing... wow :)


And yes the last picture is of me as a baby :D

Oh Where oh where did my Sunshine go???

Who took away my gorgeous sunshine? I miss it!!!!
So glad we took advantage of the gorgeous 70 degree weather last week and went to Heber for the day with Grandma.
peaceful beautiful scenery and always something fun to do.
Grandma even taught Cherish how to do the big girl swing all by herself!
All this while Little Lillie slept :)

Catching Up

Well, since this last couple of weeks has been filled with one sickness after another I thought I would catch up. Not only do the 2 older kids and I have sinus infections and Cherry with Strep. But Lillie has become cholicky on top of her reflux. I spend every night from about 8pm to 1 or 2 am standing and bouncing and rocking her and nursing her. I got a breast infection that got so bad I passed out in the kitchen yesterday and woke to Cherry shaking me. It was a very scary moment being alone and having that happen. So I grabbed the 3 kids and went to the doctors. Who wanted me to go to the ER, but I refused. So after rehydrating and getting tons of meds I went home. I am feeling a little better today but still pretty out of it. It amazes me how these things just creep up on me. I just get so busy with life I forget to take care of myself that way i guess.
James is super stressed with work. He works so much and we hardly ever see him. It is hard but it is needed. We try to make sure he knows how grateful we are for him and that he is so willing to work so hard for us. I love when he comes home and the kids get so excited, even though it's 9 o'clock! And the way his face lights up when he sees them. And the love he has for them and our new Lillie. He just loves to see her when he gets home. I can't imagine only seeing my babies wehn I say goodbye at 5am and to say goodnight at 9pm. For 5 days straight!
So I try to do all I can to give him less to stress out about when he comes home. Spending almost $400 in 3 days between doctors visits and rx's doesn't help! My good home cooking will fix that right? :D LOL! I think I have been doing a good job of balancing being mom and cleaning and all that goes with it. There are definite rooms for improvement but I am working hard!
So anyways... Life is definitely flying too fast. At least for me. But in some ways I guess that is good.
here is my catching up:
I don't take my heavy duty camera everywhere with me. And there are times I really wish I had just a nice hand held for quick picts, but I don't think I would be happy with the turn out. So I end up using my camera phone! And I finally figured out how to get the pictures off of it. So here is a long list of catching up on past events and random things.
Enjoy!

TROUBLE!!!!
This was during Christmas time when I was having pregnancy complications and was supposed to be on bed rest (what a laugh!)
I left the kids alone for literally 3 minutes and came back to find an entire brand new bottle of powder dumped ALL over the living room. It literally looked like smoke in the air it was so thick! I cleaned powder for days.

2 days before Christmas Damon had some surgeries. He had tubes in for the 3rd or 4th time ( I have lost count) and they also carved out the sinus' in his cheeks to open them up. I was told it would be a pretty easy recovery so James and I after dealing with 4 months of constant ear infections decided to do it before his deductable started over in January. Well, Christmas was fun, but the poor boy was not himself!
I have a really hard time not being able to be there when I know they are going through something like a surgery. This isn't his first time but I was still emotional and scared. Thankfully my awesome mother in law came with me. I was 34 weeks pregnant and on bed rest and not supposed to lift anything (yeah right). She was a fantastic helper and if it wasn't for her I think i would have gone crazy during the 2 hours of waiting. She took me to lunch and we talked a lot.
I teared up when they brought me back to see him. He was so out of it and his little nose was crusted in blood. Then he started to really wake up from the anethesia and he just cried and it made my heart ache.
It took a day or two before he actually snapped out of the anesthesia. And when he did he was pretty funny. PLaying with his new dinosaur and watching movies.

innocence and Cheese-i-ness.
Describes Damon prefectly don't you agree?

Cherry hamming it up for the camera.

This is her dancing.

At the hospital. Here she is wiped down and fresh on my tummy. I love revisitng these pictures! I love the emotions they bring back from that day. LOVE it!

About 4 hours old

Don't you just love how squishy and red they are?

Here is Lillienne. Laying so nicely and happy....

Here is Lillienne discovering she can grab.. her own hair!!! She does this constantly! It is so sad. And when I try to open her hand she pulls even harder! It breaks my heart!

Does this shirt not just say "james" all over it! You think he's tough... but his girls can get away with anything!

I like to take advantage of my pass to the Dinosaur Museum. Not to mention it is one of my kids favorite places to go. And since they are so young if we go early enough when older kids are in school it is so quiet and peaceful and we can take all the time in the world. The kids could stay there all day!!

Yes, Damon IS a princess :P Cherry loves to dress up. She even sleeps in this after I have alread hung it on her wall for the night. So Damon came out one day with it on too. (we have 2) I HAd to take a picture to send daddy! Ah ha!!!

playing at the park. Thought is was a gorgeous day... then the nasty winds blew in and Damon got bark in his eye! I ended up having to take him to the eye doctor. I will say this- getting a 3 year old to hold still for an eye exam... what a joke!

They love having Lillie come tell them night night at nap time.

Sshhh... Damon and Cherry are sleeping! I thought it was so cute when they were supposed to be napping in thier own beds and I find them in the same bed and Cherry reading Damon books. Love it! They are so close.

My baby Lillienne and me snuggling up. She's winking at daddy :D

She is NOT a binky girl. And it took me 20 minutes to get her to it! I can't have a cholicky baby who won't take a binky. But it seems I do.

Does my head make this flower look to big??? hee hee

Visiting Cabellas. Such a quick entertainment for the kids to get them out. And since it's not a huge zoo I don't have to be there for 3 hours!

Got it!

I will admitt I am soo picky about my pictures! Can you blame me? :D
So here, I finally got some I love love love! These are counting as Lillie's 1 month pictures too.

1 Month Old!

I can not believe how fast the time has gone by! Lillie is already a month old. Sure, that is still pretty young.. but... she is already growing out of that tiny baby stage! Augh! She is holding her head up for minutes at a time. She is awake a lot more. She is starting to coo and smile. She has found her hands and loved to watch her brother and sister.
She is definitely a true joy in our home and we are so blessed to have her!

What's your opinion???

I know all 3 of our kids have similarities. But I decided to put their baby picts together and see who really looks alike. But I honestly can't decide! The minute Lillie came out I saw Cherry, but now I see Damon too. I couldn't find Damons tiny baby picts so his will have to do as is.
So I want to know... what is your opinion?!?!?!?!
(You can click on the picts to see them closer)
