The month has FLOWN by and I feel like that is what I say every month. Graham is thriving in school and says his favorite part is riding the bus. He went to a school birthday party this month and he did awesome. Got dropped off and ran around and had fun, not even missing mom. He went and did Spectrum testing and walked into the building a little nervous but handled his nerves like a champ. He and Wells love telling Alexa to play different songs all day long and he is getting great at video games. He loves Pokemon and TMNT and is the sweetest guy ever.

Wells wants to go to school so badly. He asks me every day when “spiderman preschool” starts. Not sure where he got that idea! He is curious, always wants to make sure everyone is OK, and is very independent. He wants to get dressed himself, grab toys by himself, read himself, anything! He is starting to learn his letters and loves our little home preschool. He loves cuddling his stuffties and says ‘eebeeedeebee’ about them in the sweetest little voice. He loves eating food on everyone else’s plates and asks for a piece of my toast no matter what he has eaten already. I know we are in trouble with these boys and their appetites already!

We’ve only had a couple real snow days and the boys didn’t last long outside. We’ll see if we get any more or if we have to wait until next year!

We’ve loved the indoor play place, building blocks, playing with friends, and watching baby bro grow! The boys LOVE finding out how big he is and the last ultrasound was perfect. His heart looks great, he’s a little ahead of schedule measurement-wise, and the weeks are literally flying by until he is here. We have carseats, clothes, and one pack of diapers so we are getting so ready!

In 2024 I want to focus on Abundance. An abundance of money, of time, of God, of family, of love. We are so blessed and i want to lean into that this year.

December was such a beautiful and fun month. We went to This is the Place where it was WINDY but we had delicious treats, saw all the fun pioneer houses and did activities, and even saw a live nativity. The boys had a blast! We went to the Layton Lights which is always a family favorite.

We went to a couple Jazz games and the boys were in absolute HEAVEN! They ate yummy treats and cheered and truly had the best time ever.

We saw Santa and Wells wisely told Santa he wanted “presents” and Graham was floored that Santa knew we left him cookies last year.

We decorated gingerbread men, made cookies, and did a service project with the United Way to make bead kids for little kids and buy them books. The boys LOVED doing it and it was so fun!

We are HALFWAY to baby which is absolutely insane. We did the big ultrasound and it went so well, we loved it and his cute face was so fun to see.

We spent tons of time with friends and family. We went on a Staycation that included ice skating which Graham LOVED and Wells was pretty unsure about. We stayed at the Little America and went to dinner, did shopping, swimming, candy windows, and a Home Alone movie night with pizza and ice cream. We finished it up with a delicious brunch buffet where Wells was enamored with the drummer of the live music band, and Graham loved the macaroons. I helped at Graham’s class party and it was so fun to see him in his element with his friends.

Our Christmas was so fun. We made curry for everyone for Christmas eve and opened books, did crafts, and had a special talk about Mary and Joseph. Christmas Morning was PURE MAGIC. The boys loved their TMNT toys, Pokemon stuffed animals, baby Grogu and robot cat, games, books, crafts, and more. Mom and Dad loved their clothes, bath bombs, and new bags. Everyone got loads of candy and had so much fun. We spent the rest of the day with the Richards and loved seeing cousins and playing games. Richards Christmas a couple days later was fun with even more presents, bells, more games, and all the fun we could handle

2023 was a beautiful year full of so many perfect memories. Watching our family get older and bigger has been amazing, and sad at the same time. We are so excited for what 2024 has in store for us.

BABY LOW IS ANOTHER BRO! We are beyond excited to have another baby boy in our family! The boys are just over the moon, so pumped and out of their minds happy to have another brother. Graham was sure we needed to have 3 boys in our family and he was right! Mom and dad both guessed a boy—it’s like everyone knew we needed another brother to make our family right!

In November we enjoyed so many fun activities. Mom and Graham went to the ballet and Graham actually loved it! We went again to the Nutcracker which is such a family favorite, we can’t to bring Wells next year. Getting to share something so special with my family is amazing.

We had a Friendsgiving weekend event which had pizza, s’mores, night games, a 5k run, a talent show, a balloon parade, and a delicious dinner. We have the best friends ever and we feel so lucky to have them!

We enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving with a short game of frisbee (we are all getting old!) and the most delicious food. We went to Logan in the evening and got to spend time with nearly everyone in the Low family and Grandpa Rod. It was a really special night to be all together and get to celebrate our family all together.

We spent lots of time hanging with friends and family, lots of time at basketball games which Graham LOVED. Wells wanted to play SO BADLY and they both loved getting to dribble on the court and hang out. We decorated for Christmas and started getting in the Christmas spirit which is crazy, this year has absolutely flown by.

The year is coming to a close and I really can’t believe it has gone by so quickly. Next year we will have a baby brother here and it almost doesn’t seem real!

October was a month mostly focused on Japan! We have an entire book talking about the trip and how amazing it was. It was a dream come true, once in a lifetime wonder.

The rest of October we got down to business doing all the fall things! We went to Scary Hill with cousins where Graham loved mini golf and rock climbing, and Wells loved mini golf and the tractor ride. We went to Black Island Farms where the boys were SO brave and tried the giant slides, and LOVED them! We carved a Jack Skelington pumpkin, watched Graham at his Halloween parade, and the boys were the Mario Brothers for Halloween where they got TONS of candy and we ran out of donuts! We announced we were pregnant to our friends acting like Barbie’s pregnant friend Midge and Ken. It was SO fun! We had a Halloween party with friends which turned out so fun and magical. We have loved fall and had the best October of our life!

Fall flew away from us! We had an amazing month celebrating my birthday (Dad took me to Sur La Table where we cooked, and we spent a night out at a fancy hotel having a great time for my 30th day!) and doing my birthday running, hanging with friends, seeing fall leaves, playing at the park, and mom took a work trip to Chicago that went crazy! Her coworker and friend had to go to the ER and mom was there helping her, trying to figure out if she needed to fly home or stay, it was crazy. But it all worked out and her husband came to be with her, it was all ok in the end!

We potty trained Wells at the beginning of this month and we were so proud of him!! He did such a great job. Graham is adjusting really well to kindergarten and is starting to love it more and more each time he goes!

September was also crazy because nobody knew, but MOM WAS PREGNANT! We found out at the very end of August and mom was NOT feeling very good! Super nauseous, but we were so so excited!

My 30th birthday party was a dream come true. The best day with so many friends who spoiled me rotten. The tea was delicious and everyone dressed up and made it fun. Then my friends surprised me with a ROOM to spend the night all together hanging out and having a blast. I am spoiled! They went around and said the SWEETEST things about me. I just started bawling because I can’t believe how lucky I am to have the greatest friends ever.

The rest of our summer FLEW by. It was a wonderful time but it went by way too fast. We celebrated Liv’s wedding (I’m still waiting for pictures!) and it was the perfect night! So much fun with a beautiful ceremony, lots of delicious donuts, dancing! Shawn and Liv are the sweetest couple and we are so happy for their family!

We enjoyed going to see the Barbie movie and dressing up in pink with our friends. The movie was SPECTACULAR and I could go on and on about it. Just a great commentary about women and motherhood and everything.

We had a super fun murder mystery night with our friends and it was the BEST. Delicious food and a super fun mystery!

We went to the rock house, spent time on the lake, and had the best weekend with friends hanging out and eating delicious food. It was a highlight of summer for sure!

We visited Grandpa Rod in the hospital. He has been having a difficult time getting healthy, but it was wonderful to all be together to see him.

We had a super fun cousin day at the dinosaur exhibit at Thanksgiving Pointe! The kids LOVED the dinos and Wells couldn’t stop rawring!

We enjoyed the lantern festival extensively as our send off to summer. We decorated lanterns and sent them off into the darkness and we loved it so much!

We said goodbye to Grandma and Grandpa Low. We held a surprise dinner where they had started cooking (ha!) but they were so surprised and happy. We watched them get set apart and we were so sad. Our kids will miss them so much and so will we, but we are so happy for them. After visa issues they are in Japan as of today, and we are thrilled for them!

Our back to school dinner was so fun and we are kind of sad at how old our kids are getting. Graham started KINDERGARTEN and did such a great job on his first day. He was nervous and has been nervous off and on, but he has been so brave. He told us he doesn’t want to be anything when he grows up, that he wants to stay a kid. I hope he will.

July is halfway done and it’s been a WILD one already!

4th of July, The Rocket Summer concert, Taylor Swift, we’ve been running nonstop so far and it’s not going to stop!

On July 3rd we almost got rained out of our first neighborhood 4th of July Bike Parade! Lucky the showers stopped and we had a blast biking around the block and hanging out at the park. It was SUCH a good night and we are hoping will be a fun tradition for the neighborhood!

We enjoyed pancakes with strawberries and blue syrup for 4th of July breakfast, we went to the Kaysville parade and the boys were in heaven! Plenty of candy and fun. We had a family BBQ and then watched Hamilton and napped! Then back to Kaysville for the fireworks. It was a great way to celebrate our country and help our boys learn about the great things that have happened, and the work we have left to do!

We had a dad day at Cherry Hill which the boys LOVED. We’ve tried to go every week and have had a blast having that be our summer getaway place, and showing it to dad was so fun!

Dad and Mom went to see The Rocket Summer and the boys had a blast with the nanny Noelia. That was the lead up to the BIG concert of July, Taylor Swift! Mom and Dad had a blast with their weekend away and the boys had so much fun with Grandma and Grandpa. Taylor Swift was a dream come true and was a life changing experience. Driving to Denver and flying home was so much fun, there was delicious food and amazing outfits, making videos, hanging with friends and family, it was just the best time!

In June when we weren’t at Disneyland and celebrating Wells, we spent a LOT of time doing tball games and playing with friends outside. June was so mild it made it the perfect opportunity for outside games and time with friends. And ice cream, which Wells had NO patience to wait for.

Graham did SO great this year in tball and was a great centerfielder and batter. He learned to run to the right base and could hit it off the tee every time.

We enjoyed Syracuse days celebrating our city with our friends. The boys had a BLAST.

It was a magical month of summer that we won’t forget!

Wells turned TWO after we got home from Disneyland and we had a BLAST celebrating him. We woke up early in the morning to give him his very own DRUM SET which was immediately a hit. He and all the kids throughout the day were obsessed. Our little drummer dude was ready to PARTY. We went to the Trampoline Park to let him party, ate cookies and McDonald’s, and had a blast.

His party was the next day and that was a RIOT. We had a ton of friends and family over to celebrate Wells. Of course we had a music themed birthday (BORN 2 ROCK) because Wells is obsessed. He loved blasting music over Alexa, getting a full tattoo sleeve, and eating cupcakes. This dude is SO loved and we are beyond lucky to have him be part of our family.

This year Wells has grown up SO much. He is a little parrot and repeats whatever we say, speaking in full sentences all the time. He loves being read to, is obsessed with food, is a great sleeper, loves all things music, wants to watch Spidey and Lightyear all the time, is a huge Gabby’s Dollhouse fan, is a big adventure guy and always wants to try something new. Wells has no fear, has a huge heart and always wants to make sure others are OK, is so curious, funny, loves his brother so much and begs to see him once he wakes up, and is growing up too fast. We love our little Wells!
