Halloween Time

So, I know I am a month behind on my holiday blogging, but this is as good as it gets these days, this four month old is keeping me busy!Pictures from some of our Halloween activities. Bailey at dance class, downtown Springville trick-or-treating, and a cold, rainy Halloween night, with our Halloween dinner!

3 months today

Our little one is growing up, I can't believe that three months has flown by and that she has taken over an hour nap today without me holding her-so here is my sweet Sierra Savannah!!


Fall Fun

Trip to Cornbelley's-our first time, kids loved bouncing on the big balloon and dancing on stage all dressed up!




Family Night-our way of "carving the pumpkins" and visiting the pumpkin patch in our own garden!!


Getting ready for Halloween, trying on costumes, deciding what they want to be!!

Face Painting at a neighborhood carnival

Busy start to the school year




Sorry its taken me so long to blog-you'd think by number four having another kid is no big deal, but its hits you just the same. We are finally getting into some sort of routine and learning each other schedule. Life is not so hard on a daily basis anymore...(knock on wood)!! Having Tanner out of soccer helps to calm down the house too. Two games and a practice a week keep you busy-especially when you just started back up in school, but he loves it and so we do it!

Memorial Day Outing






We went hiking on memorial day in Payson Canyon to this neat little grotto-had a picnic and a lot of fun!

Baby Blessing






Always fun having church at 9am on special occasions like this-but what a great day! The wonderful lady I visit teach made this beautiful dress for our baby girl!

our new addition


Sierra Savannah Mayer born July 19th at 8 pounds 3 ounces 20 1/2 in. long. We went into the Payson Hospital at 6 am monday morning to be induced. We were started on pitocin around 9 am and my water broke on its own around 11 am or so-the nurse checked me a while after and I was dilated to a 6. I asked for an epidural and was told he would be there soon. Contractions started coming fast and hard, and I was in a great deal of pain waiting for the anesthesiologist that they insisted would be there in one minute. I kept insisting to the nurses that the baby was pushing, and they said the last time they checked the baby was at a -1 and that it was just pressure from the contraction. The anesthesiologist finally showed up and made me roll over on my other side and I yelled that the baby was coming, Brigham pulled back the covers (because the nurse still didn't believe me) and sure enough the babies head popped out to their surprise!! The nurses freaked out, I freaked out and they called the doctor. Sierra came at 11:23 am, the doctor arrived in time to clean me up and we all took a long nap after!! Our first natural birth-very unplanned, but one we will always remember and hopefully never repeat!!
