These pictures are when we visited my family and hometown, St. George.  Love that place.  Check it out if you haven't been.  It's beautiful!









Well we are still going to school and probably will be for the next few years.  It is fun though!  I think it's good to start out this way.  We have had some good times.  Being frugal is not a hard thing for me.  I grew up this way.  I wasn't way poor, but my mom was a school teacher.  Even though it is hard, rewarding work, it doesn't pay much.  Not that I'm complaining.  It's been comfortable for me, and I think it's prepared me for now.  Bless my mom for teaching me how to save and balance finances.
We have been going to this water park here next to us and it's been so fun for Layla.  It's a little packed for our liking, but so fun to get out in the sun!
Here are some of our 7 Peaks adventures!

Layla is almost 6 months and I can't believe it!
Time is going by way to fast.  Here are some updated pictures below.  Kevin Fitzpatrick took these while Christina Fitzpatrick was cracking her up.  We had a ball with her.
She is getting to be so fun! She can flip from back to front now and she can suck on her toes.
She loves looking at her reflection in the mirror and seeing other babies in the ward.
She is so cute! We love her!

Way Behind!

Wow. well...it's been a while.  I have had a good excuse about not writing on this thing.  We have a baby you know.  Layla is now 5 months and takes up most of my time.  I love her! She is so fun.  Being a mom is the best thing that could ever happen to me.  I can't believe it's been 5 months already! Time seriously flies! I feel like I am still pregnant and as fat as ever...oh wait...I am still fat!  I need to lose this postpartum weight a-freakin-sap!
Apart from all of the baby stuff, Mike is diving right into the Mechanical Engineering program at BYU.  That program is a tuffy, I hear, and so far he is going great!  He is a smarty pants though so no worries there.
I am trying to get back into painting, but it's hard.  I want to do it to make some extra money and because I miss it.  The last time I oil painted was before I was pregnant! That's a long time in my book.  I am having some major withdrawals.
Well anyway everything is awesome here at the DiFiore household.  Life is just great! Here are some updated pictures of Layla besides those weird sonograms.  She is out of the womb! ha ha

This was literally the night before Layla was born.  Feeling contractions and doubling over while doing my hair...haha
