A lot has happened in our lives the past few months - crazy things, but also very good things! I just wanted to give an update on what's going on with each of us lately!
BENTLEY - We took the girls to the doctor on Monday for their shots (Bentley's 2 month shots & Taylor's 2 year shots) Yes, Bentley is already 2 months old! CRAZY! She currently weighs 10 lbs. 4 oz & is 24 inches long. That puts her in the 25% - 50% for her weight and 95% for her height! Just like Taylor was when she was that age. I guess our girls are going to get their height from their daddy, which is a good thing!
FAVORITE THING: One of my favorite things about Bentley is her smiling & cooing at us a ton these past few weeks! It is SO cute! I love that she knows who I am - I can tell that she recognizes my voice and even when it's me holding her, that's a pretty special feeling!
INTERESTING FACT: She has the most beautiful & alert eyes, but they are actually different colors. One is blue & the other is brown. It's pretty interesting!
TAYLOR - After taking Taylor to the doctor, she weighs 26 lbs and is 36 inches long. She's about the same percentile as Bentley is, but for her age group. We have tall children so far! Taylor is a fun little girl! We definitely laugh every day! She is talking a ton - most of it doesn't make sense, but she seems to think that it does, because her eye contact when she is talking to you is so intense! We love her so much!
FAVORITE THING: My favorite thing about Taylor right now is her sweet little voice! I wake up in the morning to her singing a little song downstairs in her room. It makes me smile & want to get out of bed (except when she is doing that at 6:00 in the morning)
INTERESTING FACT: For the past month or so, Taylor's favorite movie has been Transformers. No joke - this kid can find it anywhere on the shelf and ask us to watch it! It's such a good movie, but I never thought she would like it so much! I even tried hiding it from her, but she ended up finding it & we had to watch it. Her new favorite movie since Wednesday is The Polar Express (which is actually playing at this exact moment) , but we will see how long that will last.
MEGAN - Not too much is new with me. I'm just a busy mom that loves her girls! Basically my family is my life! I am taking more initiative with learning to cook. I want to be able to cook as many good meals for my family as I possibly can! So far I think I'm at like 2 or 3 so I have a long ways to go!
FAVORITE THING: I guess my favorite thing about myself right now is how much I have learned lately. I feel like I can handle more and take more on in my life. It definitely makes sense when they say that trials are blessings hidden in disguise!
INTERESTING FACT: I don't really have one for me - I just wanted to tell things about the girls so I will remember what they were doing at this time. I guess that is something interesting about me - I have to write EVERYTHING down or else I forget. I have a terrible memory!
JORDAN - He is doing great! But really how else can Jordan be? He is the most positive person I have met in my entire life! His foot is continuing to heal and he only has a week & a 1/2 more of having an I.V. to take his medicine. That's pretty exciting! It will be so nice to have him back to normal again.
FAVORITE THING: I don't really have just one favorite thing about Jordan right now, I just love everything about him! He is a pretty amazing guy!
INTERESTING FACT: He cooks us dinner almost every night (like 6 out of the 7 nights). This is yet another reason why I really want to learn to cook!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL! We truly have so much to be thankful for! This year we went out to Joe & Natalie's (my aunt and uncle) for Thanksgiving dinner and it was nothing less than delicious! It's always fun being able to eat tons of great food and be with your family at the same time! I was very grateful to have my parents and sister and in-laws there with us! They made it that much more special!
Bentley resting peacefully - We LOVE those times!
Taylor helping me get organized at my desk!
Spider Taylor - Jordan likes to play this game with Taylor called "Spider Taylor" where he sticks her on the ceiling and sings the Spiderman song to her. For those of you who have seen Spiderman or The Simpsons Movie, you will understand. Anyways, she just loves it!
Taylor eating a Thanksgiving turkey cupcake - YUMMY!
Taylor needing to be a little more gentle - she just knocked her cousin off the car! She can definitely hold her own when it comes to the boys!
My cousin Amanda & sister Paige - Aren't they lovely?!!?


This was one of Taylor's favorites, but we had to tell her that we couldn't buy it. She was okay with that.

We blessed our beautiful little Bentley on the night of Wednesday 11/21/07 at our home. It was a very special occasion and I loved that all of our family was able to attend! Especially my mom & dad and Paige (my sister) and Jordan's parents who came in from out of town to be with us! I really have the most wonderful family! Jordan gave an amazing blessing to our little girl! I'm so thankful for the church and for my husband being able to give our children such powerful blessings - it really is such an amazing feeling!
Thank you to everyone that was able to come - it meant so much to us to have all of you there! I can't wait to see Bentley Reese Hill added to the church records under our names! I remember when Taylor was added I just couldn't believe it! I'm sure I will have the feeling all over again! I LOVE that I have two little girls!
Bentley's blessing day!
