Maylee is on the Move!

Maylee loves this toy! She was terrified of it at first but that is because Slade put her on there and zoomed her around the room. Now she can push it by herself and she enjoys slow rides around the house.


Everyday Maylee takes more and more independent steps and it is so funny to watch her walk because she is so tiny. Her birthday is just a couple weeks away but she is still wearing 3-6 month size clothes and a size 1 shoe! She is so very different than her brother and sister but I love it! She has quite the personality and keeps us laughing. She is such a joy!

Concert!

Three2U is having their first concert in 7 years! It's called, "Evening of Inspiration...the stories behind the songs!" and they will be featuring people who have passed away, Skylar being one of them. I sent them a few pictures of him for what I understand is some kind of slide show that will be shown. It will take place at Gilbert High on Saturday February 6th, at 7pm. Singers also include Debbie West Coon, Michele Baer and Freddie Ashby (who sang at Skylar's funeral). If you would like to attend, there are discount tickets available for $5 at http://wonderfuleveningofinspiration.blogspot.com/ if you purchase before January 31st.
See you there!!

The Picture

This is just one of my many favorite pictures of Skylar. It was taken when we first found out we were pregnant with Maylee but hadn't told anyone yet. Skylar really didn't enjoy getting his picture taken but during this photo shoot, he was so cooperative, it was amazing! I'm so happy Kendyl was able to capture this photo of him. I just love those eyes!

I recently put this picture on my computer as my wallpaper and my kids are able to see it. Daisy saw it for the first time yesterday and yelled, "Daddy's alive!! Daddy's alive!!" It was a very hard moment for me while I had to explain that it was a picture of daddy and I put it on the computer so that we can see him everyday and remember him always. She seemed okay with that.
The kids and I are doing well. Its fun to hear the kids remember things about Skylar and we talk about him all the time. Slade is always telling me that because he can feel daddy in his heart and guts, that daddy is always eating his food all gone! I love it. Daisy told me just the other day that she can feel daddy too, where as before she was so sad because she didn't feel him in her heart. Maylee becomes so happy and does her shy smile everytime she sees a picture of Skylar. Those moments are the best.
