Scott, Kim, and Addie visit

So today Derek and I finally got an Internet connection so I can update the blog. We have been procrastinating until we got our new computer! It looks a little like this:

Our keyboard isn't as small though. It is in proportion to the monitor. Then to make things even better in our apartment we bought a book case and then my parents surprised us with a flat screen TV and a blue ray player for our late Christmas gift! We are loved and spoiled and so grateful for the wonderful families we have.

So they only exciting thing that has happened lately is that my brother and his wife and cute little baby came to visit for his spring break. It was so much fun. For the first time in a long time I felt that there was something to do. Here are some pictures of my adorable niece, Addie.


She loved the thin mints. She even gave me a kiss because I gave her one.

She is my favorite!

So other than that nothing exciting is happening. Derek is doing well in school and adjusting fine. Work is boring but I survive.

P.S. Getting excited for summer and general conference!

  1. We loved getting to see you guys so much! And don't worry, there's a lot less drama when you're best friend is your husband, so I wouldn't stress about finding other ones:) If only we were closer, then we could hang out!!!

Big News!

So this is big news for the Power family. I know many of you know a million other people who are currently pregnant but before you roll your eyes and skip over this post completely (ha), read on and hear a little bit about our story. I am currently 20 weeks pregnant. We just found out yesterday that we are expecting a baby girl. She is due to enter this world on January 3, 2012. So far she is healthy and growing strong. She is growing about a week ahead of schedule. Maybe she'll come early...like before the end of the year. Derek and I will celebrate our 3rd anniversary on the 16th of January...so not too long after our sweet girl is born. A little about us: Derek: One of the things I love most about Derek is how patiently he accepts trials in his life. He always has such a good atitude about what life has handed him. When he was 11 or 12 he was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. Then at age 19 he was diagnosed with Lymphoma Cancer.  He has now been in remission for 5 ...

Owen at 6 months

  This is my little Owen and he is the most handsome little boy ever. He brings so much joy to our lives. He is an excellent napper, happy 98% of the time, and a great little brother. He laughs at every thing Brooklyn does and is so patient as she pulls and pokes him while they try and play. Here is a glimpse of Owen James at 6 months old: He sits up and loves to play with anything put in front of him He drools like nothing I've ever seen before Can roll from front to back and back to front but mostly rolls from back to tummy Loves tummy time Is obsessed with Brooklyn and Peek a boo Isn't the best night time sleeper but he is getting better every day. He gave me 6 hrs last night...to bad it was from 6 pm to 12 am instead of 12 am to 6 am. Once he's in a deep sleep he does great but just has a hard time getting to sleep at first Smiles at everyone so he can show off his dimples Blabs mama everyday all day but I don't think he has connected it yet...

We live in a small two bedroom apartment and there isn't much room to decorate. This morning I was watching the video Wise Men Still Seek Him   and felt inspired to create a printable for my home. It's a good reminder to not only seek Him this time of year but thr...
