A New Car or 2

Well there are a couple of changes around the Hoyt house.... 1st Jake bought a new toy this gorgeous red jeep for us to cruise around in this summer. The kids think it's pretty much, well the best thing ever! We also decided that we didn't need a ridiculously big vehicle anymore either. We never used the 3rd row in my Yukon for anything other than when we were traveling and we only used it then to store extra luggage. So we decided that we should down size for the last time because I am honestly so sick of trading vehicles! So I got a Jeep Grand Cherokee and I am in love with it as well! It's small, gorgeous and has quite a bit of power! You can also see in the top picture of the jeep our new trailer I am going to clean it out this week and take pictures of it as well - needless to say we are going to be having some fun this summer!!

Deagan Robert Johnson

Lauren & Beau welcomed a beautiful, healthy baby boy on February 19th. This little man has a mind of his own already they had a really hard time keeping him in - she kept going into labor... then when it was time for him to arrive he took as long as he possibly could! It was a super long day they induced Lauren at 4 AM and she was in labor until 9:50 that night. She tried to go all natural but ended up getting an epidural about halfway through the day. Probably a good thing too because this sweet little guy was NOT little at all... he weighed in at a whopping 9 Pounds 4 Ounces and was 21 Inches long! We love him so much and are so excited for Beau & Lauren they are going to be amazing parents! :) Congrats guys he is perfect in every way!

Valentine's Day

These sweeties had a lot of fun with their Valentine's Day presents (and of course a sugar high!) They got lots of treats from their school parties as well and I of course got spoiled with a dozen roses and a nice dinner! <3 all="" my="" of="" p="" s="" valentine="">

7 Months

This little Love Bug has turned 7 months old - on Valentine's Day no less! She is fully sitting up on her own without teetering and I even got her to stand up behind her walker for a minute by herself a few days ago! She is a strong little girl and she is getting big :) I just love her sweet personality and she has grins for days!

She now weighs 16 pounds 6 ounces and she's almost in 6-9 month clothes. :) 

We're still waiting on teeth to come through and the crawling to start but it's definitely coming!

Aria's Blessing Pictures

Little slow.... but here are my sweet baby's blessing pictures! She was incredibly GRUMPY for all of these so I didn't catch any of her smiling. I can't believe how much she has changed since these were taken but she looked absolutely beautiful on her special day! It's hard to see but her name was embroidered on her slip and it will be passed to her girls (if she has any) so they can get their names put on it as well! Jess did a fabulous job as always and I love them all.
