Grayson's First Taste of Cereal

Grayson had his first taste of cereal and it was pretty comical! Not sure if he liked it too much.

Christmas 2010

We had a really great Christmas this year even though Arlin had to work Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We went to my parents before Christmas and did the whole works, then on Christmas Eve when Arlin got home did our own, then on Christmas Day I took the kids to Arlin's parents. The kids got everything they wanted, imagine that! Santa brought Aylah a baby with a backpack and Eben got Stinky the Garbage Truck.

Grayson's Blessing Jan. 2, 2011

Arlin gave Grayson a beautiful blessing. Some of the things he blessed him with were that he would be an example to his brother and sister, that he would look up to them. That he may grow to be healthy and strong. That his family and Heavenly Father love him and that when he is ready to go to the temple that he may take a worthy wife. The people that we asked to help were, John Dale Fackrell, Tony Lallatin, Dale Barnes, Glade Erickson, and Bishop Milo Walker.

Moen Family PIctures

Here is a family picture of Arlin's family that were taken this summer. This was not the first time that Arlin's sister, April, and I were pregnant at the same time! Madison (10/10/05) and Eben (11/18/05) are 6 weeks apart, and Grayson (10/06/10) and Dawson (12/02/10) are 8 weeks apart!

Carpenter Family

My Grandmother Betty was at my parents house for 8 weeks to do cancer treatment. While she was here my sister's family came to visit. Here are some of the pictures that we took.

Pumpkin Patch Fun!

My sister came down in October to see Grayson and while she was here we took the kids to a pumpkin patch in Utah. They had lots of fun!

Grayson's Pictures

Here are a few of Grayson's newborn pictures.

Grayson Porter Moen

We have a new arrival! Grayson Porter Moen was born October 6, 2010 at 1:53 pm. He weighed 7.6 lbs. and 19 1/4 in.

I had him at 37 and 4 days. I had been having contraction for several weeks and finally started having them again. Arlin had just gotten home from working nights and I told him that I thought we should go to the hospital and he just kinda looked at me, we had been there a lot the last few weeks. When we got to the hospital they checked me and I was at a 3 and 85% so they decided that they would do my c-section. It went a lot better this time, even though no one held my hand because they told Arlin that he could watch the procedure. Also, my mom was able to be there this time too.

Easter Pictures!

So we finally went and got the kids pictures taken. I have always been a kiddie kandid fan and was very sad when they went bankrupt :( So we went to Sears to try them out and they did a pretty good job. I will add a slideshow but here is a little preview!

It was a great end to 2009!
