Alyssa

Sweet Beautiful Alyssa.

Taylor's 6th Birthday

Our little Taylor turned 6!

Christmas in Newport Beach

Christmas was really fun.  We went to Newport Beach with our Family & did Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm, went swimming & spent time together.  Tim had a Rockband Christmas & above is our little King(wise man) & angel.  Opening presents, making cookies and just having fun together.

All of us kids flew to California for My Dad's 60th Surprise Birthday Party. It was fun to be in Cali again and it was a special night. Me with my family and good friend Johnathon below.

Little Lissie loves her Daddy so much. It's so cute to see her smile at him. She really loves her Daddy!

The three kids playing with Alyssa in her play gym. They are so sweet with her. They love their little sister. Also me with the flowers that Tim and Taylor picked out for me for Tim and my 7th anniversary.

Halloween 2008

Every Halloween, Brie and I have been Disney Princesses and this year we were both Princess Jasmine's. Taylor was of course, Optimus Prime and Little Alyssa was a Love Bug (A Ladybug). Tim was an Army Man. We went trick or treating down Main Street & down our own street. We had lots of fun.

My Visiting Teacher was SO nice and came to my home and took some pictures of sweet Alyssa. I wasn't exactly planning on taking pictures with me in them, but then I thought it'd be fun. It is so fun having sweet little "Lissa" in our family. She is so precious. We are getting excited for Halloween to come soon and Brianna and I are both going to be Jasmine so we will have to see what we will dress cute little Alyssa as.

Our New Arrival!

Alyssa Kate Shaw was born August 2, 2008 at 11:03 pm. Janet was having dinner at the Shaws and started having really light contractions and went for a walk. She felt a really light trickle and thought her water broke (she was laughing so she was hoping it wasn't just peeing her pants, heehee) But no her water broke! She went into the hospital at 8:42pm and started having contractions and had the baby in a little over 2 hours! It was the best labor! She was able to do it natural again for the 3rd time (whew hew!) and was so grateful everything went great. Tim and Janet are overjoyed to have this little precious spirit in their home. She is the most beautiful, sweet baby girl and has our hearts. Big Brother Taylor and Big Sister Brianna absolutely LOVE her and can't get enough kisses. We are so happy to have her in our family.

Boondocks Family Fun Center

Janet couldn't ride the go karts since she was expecting so Daddy took both kids around the track and they loved it.

Olympic Park

For the 4th of July, Janet's family came up to Utah and we spent a week in Park City. We went to the Olympic Park and enjoyed being together.
