Happy Birthday Jayci!

Dear Jayci,

Happy birthday! Today has been a really long day of travel! We went to Grandma and Grandpa Hough's for Thanksgiving and it just happened to be towards the end of the month so it ended up being on your birthday. I don't know if I really like the idea of traveling on your birthday but what I did love is spending the whole day with your sisters and Dad. They may have drove me crazy 80% of the time but we made it and had a few good laughs!

I love being able to start the beginning of the Christmas season celebrating your day of birth. I wonder if Heavenly Father knew that was going to be in the plan. I hated the thought of having your birthday in November because I hated the birth stone and I already get to celebrates Ellie's that month. So when they wanted me to be started the first of December I couldn't of been more excited. Now I have A LOT more reasons to love it. And Mainly it brings a whole level of spirit with it that just warms my soul. You should of seen the light in your sisters eyes when she saw that buddy the elf had made it on your birthday. The tears that welled up in her eyes just gave me goosebumps because she instantly felt the spirit of Christmas. 

I pray you know of our love for you! You are thought of and loved twenty/four seven. I can't help but always be thinking of you because as your Aunt Jess said it best Your spirit x's twelve is living in your baby sister. I believe it to be true. I love that she is so much like you, but different enough that it doesn't hurt as bad. It makes me appreciate all that she is  whether it's loud, yelling all the time or her soft, sweet kisses that we get 24/7.

Jayci, I love you! I miss you! I ache for you! But mainly I cannot wait to be together again. As I know we will be someday. But for now I am rolling with the punches, Dancing in the rain, and embracing the life that I live. Some days are hard and some are really good! Thanks for sending us little reminders that only we will know to be from you!

Happy birthday my beautiful Baby Jayci!

Love you forever,
Mom

And She should of been 4

Tomorrow is this angels birthday! I cannot believe she would of been four! This has been a particular hard time for me because we have missed many firsts like preschool and ballet! And mainly because Laney is weeks away from passing her in age! It just doesn't seem right! I feel bad that we will be traveling on her birthday but it will give me a day to reflect on her life and all the things she's taught me! Not to mention i get to be with my family! I appreciate those friends that still acknowledge her and are always willing to let me talk about her! They will never know the simple things they give or say that mean everything to me! Jayci, happy birthday! Your mommy loves you! Jump over the moon and have a ball! Know my heart is with you today!

Ellie Funnies

"Conversation with Granny June"

Granny get's out of the car and says "I need to use the rest room."

Ellie says "You need to go potty?"

Granny "Yes"

Ellie says "Okay I'll take you."

(Granny could not even tell me the story because she was laughing to hard. I thought it was so cute she wanted to help.)



"Sacrament Meeting 08/09/08"

Ellie "Mom where is your bag"

Dad "Do you want a snack?"

Ellie "Yeah" Cough Cough Cough
Dad preceeds to get her a treat but she started gaging a little bit. Chokes spits up a little bit, and Layne catches it in his hand.
Ellie (look of disgust) "Dad go throw it in the gabage that is DISGUSING"
So Layne gets up and washes his hands.
(I about peed my pants laughing)


"This Morning 08/18/09"

I was in the kitchen making hot chocolate. Which I LOVE. Ellie decides she wants some to. But I was watching my TV show and told her to wait a minute. She was not going for that so she grabbed my arm and says "Pease Mom your the best". I love it when she says that, how can you tell her to hold on then?!



"On our way home from Twin. 8/22/09"

Ellie was whinny in the back seat and Layne started to mimic her and she got really mad and said. "Dad quit being a whiner."



"Tonight sitting on my lap in the Kitchen 9-08-09"

Ellie: I wanna get married

Mom: dieing of laughter "what did you say"

Ellie: I wanna get married

Dad: Not till your thirty!

Ellie: Ok



10/05/09

All of us playing make believe after dinner?!

Ellie: Mom you be Ellie, I'll be Dad and Dad be mommy because you have a Belly like mommy... (I laughed so hard)

So she wanted some dinner and said while deepening her voice "Darlin bring me some dinner"

We were laughing way to hard to keep playing... She was on one that night



12/02/09

After bringing Jayci home from the hospital.

Ellie: Mom why is Jayci eating your boob?(said so disgustedly)

Mom: because that is how she gets her food.

Ellie: Can she eat my boob?

Getting ready for church.

I curled Ellies hair this morning and put a cute flower in it. She was wearing a new dress with her boots. I told her she looked rockin. She says "yeah i'm rockin" I tried to get her to put her coat on but she said "no mom I want to show dad how fashionable I am" Seriously what three year old talks like that.
02/08/10
Setting the scene: Ellie walks out of my room with just a t shirt on. I ask her. Where are your pants. She says: Mom their wet! well why or they wet. With her hand on her hip and shaking her finger at me she says "Because moder I had an Asserdent"
