Happy 4th Birthday Noah!!

I can't believe that 4 years ago today I had my sweet boy Noah! I LOVE being his mom. I feel so lucky! He is so funny and fun to be around. We had a fun family party over the weekend. Noah is really into dinosaurs. We had a dino party. Noah was really excited! We played games and ate cake and opened presents. He got a personal Karoke machine...he loves to sing! It is so cute he makes up his own songs and sings other songs I have taught him. I love when he sings "childs prayer" so cute! He also got his very own guitar! He is quite the little music lover. We had so much fun and I just love this little boy to the moon and back:)

I will be a Larsen again

Well I havent posted in FOREVER!! but really I don't know how many people really read this blog. Anywhoo I like it for my own journaling purposes. And if you like to read it then that is super too. For all who don't know I will be a Larsen again. I don't want to go into lots of details but Kirk and I have chosen to get a divorce. UHHH not what I really expected to happen at 31 years old. I thought I had life kinda figured out but then there are those curve balls that come your way. I think I am dealing pretty well with this curve ball. It is hard but I have thee most amazing family who is supporting me 100% and I love them to death for it!! They have made this time in my life a bit easier. I really don't know what I would do without them. So I am back in the old hood...goood ol' Trailer park:) Me and Noah love being with my parents!! I know everything will be ok and I am grateful for my Heavenly Father for watching over me and helping me know that I am loved. I have faith that everything will work out in the wash. I think that sometimes the unexpected things that come in life are a time for learning and figuring things out. Wish me luck with that!

Good times with my awesome family

I just love my family so darn much. We have so much fun together...first of all Mandi and I love to have photo shoots of ourselves. I love Noah and all the fun things he is learning and loving. First off he LOVES jojo from Horton hears a who. He wants a JoJo so Kirk and I are trying to be inventive and make him a stuffed one. He loves his stuffed animals so much lately...to cute. We had a fun new years eve playing games at the clubhouse!! I spend a lot of time at my parents house. Noah and I go there just about every day and we love it.

Noah is at grandma's

So I am posting a jillion things tonight...why you ask?? Well Noah is at Gramma's having his weekly sleepover and I need to catch up! We had such a fun Christmas. We had partys and decorated gingerbread houses and saw the lights at Temple Square. Noah was in awe of the statue of Christ. Noah told him happy birthday and he loved him and heavenly father and the holy ghost...he was on a roll!! We had christmas eve with Kirk's family. We opened gifts and had the best potatoes ever!! Noah put out half eaten oreos for Santa...but Santa didn't mind...he still ate them. Noah got his Hummer...YIPEE...We went to my parents where Noah was showerd with more gifts. Gifts that he liked better than what Santa brought..oh well. I got some cute shirts and shoes. We had a really great day and played games with the family and pigged out on goodies. It was a really great Christmas....and yes photos will be on their way soon.

Please read My Too many fun things post and all these pictures make sense!

More pictures of our Holidays....I know a little slow

So this goes with that....

Too many fun things!!

It has been a while since I posted. There have been alot of fun things that we have done. We had a great thanksgiving with Kirk's sister Debbie and brother Marty and their families. Noah loves his cousin Liz. She is 8. He followed her everywhere and they went on a cat hunt( Deb has 6 cats)he also drove a jeep with Liz. Another fun highlight was going to build a bear with Jer, Autumn and Lisa. Noah made a penguin named Poppi. Poppie giggles and had to have sunglasses. We have seen Santa 2 times(at the mall and thanksgiving point) We drove around thanksgiving point to see the lights. We also saw reindeer and ran into the Goodrich family which is always fun! Noah was really excited to see the kis and run around with them. When we saw santa at the mall Noah asked Santa "Where are your reindeer?" a little suspicious. Santa said on the roof. Noah asked for a Hummer. Thank you QVC for having one:) I looked everywhere and ended up finding it there....whooo good thing! We also went to see the Hogle Zoo lights and eat deep fried smores. I was the picture of sexy while eating that thing. It was running down my chin...glorious sight I must say. So this has been a really fun time and I enjoy watching Noah love christmas and ask if baby Jesus wears a diaper and if the elves came to see him. I am trying to unmix the two. He is so big boy lately. We went to church on sunday and he asked to wear cologne to curch... it being a special occasion and all. Oh how I love this boy!!

The Luckiest

I am having one of those mornings where I am just thinking back about all the joy that my sweet boy has brought into mine and my husband and families lives. I LOVE this little boy so much. He has my heart. I just feel so blessed to be able to have this experience of being a Mother. I love how when he was a baby he would clasp his hands together before he fell asleep. I love how he would smile through his binki. I love his beautiful eyes. It has been so amazing watching him grow. I love how he says Mommy after everything he asks me. "Are you happy mommy?", "Am I happy mommy?". The other night he was sleeping over at grammas and said " I am going to sleep over at grammas, will you miss me mommy?" I say "yes". "I will miss you too mommy?" There is a song that makes me cry when I hear it and it just reminds me of how I feel about my son. So here I will share some more lyrics with you.

Amazing by Janelle


The morning cold and raining
Dark before the dawn could come
How long in twilight waiting
Longing for the rising sun
Oh, Oh
You came like crashing thunder
Breaking through these walls of stone
You came with wide eyed wonder
Into all this great unknown
Hush now don’t you be afraid
I promise you I’ll always stay
I’ll never be that far away
I’m right here with you

You’re so amazing
You shine like the stars
You’re so amazing
The beauty you are
You came blazing
Right into my heart
You’re so amazing
You are, You are

You came from Heaven shining
Breath of God still fresh on you
The beating heart inside me
Crumbled at this one so new
Oh, Oh
No matter where, how far you wander
For a thousand years or longer
I will always be there for you
Right here with you
I hope your tears are few and fast
I hope your dreams come true at last
I hope you find love that goes on and on and on and on and on
I hope you wish on every star
I hope you never fall too far
I hope this world can see how wonderful you are

I want Noah to know that this is what I feel for him. I just feel like the Luckiest!!

You know Dasher and Dancer.....

So Noah is in love with Rudolph and Clarisse. I got these little stuffed animals at Hallmark and Clarisse kisses Rudolph and his nose lights up and he says "I'm cute, she thinks I'm cute" and now Noah is in love. He carries them everywhere. He sleeps with them. He kisses and cuddles them and tells them he loves them so much as big as the sky. He asks me to pretend to be clarisse and talk to him. I get a high pithced voice and we have great conversations. It is so cute to watch him be all nurturing to his stuffed animals. Not only does he love his reindeer but his monkey "Louie". We don't leave home with out them. Noah is just the cutest ever. I love him to the moon and back! He says he loves me to the Universe! How lucky am I?? Really does it get any better than that??
