Seth & i were just getting ready for bed and having our nightly 'talk time' and i was so overwhelmed with how very blessed i am. I love my family so much. I spent the day with my mom and little Nicci and realized that i really have never been happier than i am right now. My mom and i are very best friends; i am so grateful to have her close to me in every way and to have her loving guidance in every aspect of my life. Her selfless love blesses so many lives, including very much my own. I have seriously the most amazing husband. He works so hard for our little family and always comes home with a smile and ready to play hard with his girls before he retires to bed. There's no place i'd rather be than wrapped up in his hugs. I have an incredible father that works harder than anyone i've ever met. He will answer his phone in the middle of any meeting just to answer whatever ridiculous question i have for him. And i absolutely could not survive without my adorable little girl. She is my pride & joy...my entire life. I have been so sick this past week and she has been so good for me. Everytime i coughed or sneezed she'd say, "Bless you Mommy." It just brightened my day to hear those three words. As i watch her run around everyday(while i miss her Daddy like crazy) i see so much of her wonderful father in her...i see his gorgeous eyes when she looks at me, his sweet smile when she laughs, and his love as she hugs me or says a prayer on her food before she eats. She's perfect. She is a literal angel that our Father in Heaven has blessed us with. I could not ask for a more beautiful and loving little girl. I could not ask for a more pure hearted & perfect mother. I could not ask for a more understanding & hard working father. I could not ask for a more loving, hard working, and literally perfect husband, and i certainly could not ask for a sweeter, happier, and more angelic child than my precious Nicci. I could not ask for a happier life. I'm so very blessed and so incredibly thankful for my kind Heavenly Father.
Brandi...so my heart was melting as I watched that video! You are so blessed! :) As we all are! Reading your post made me realize how blessed Ry and I are too. I can't wait til our little girl is born to our family! I hope that she is as loving and well behaved as Nicci! We love her so much! We love you guys so much too! lol! I am glad that you are feeling better...take care of yourself sweetie! Oh, and I love the new color of your hair too! I really need to change my hair BAD! What should I do? Any ideas? Love you!
Glad you're feeling better. I cant wait till Hudson talks and can do cute stuff like this. She seems like such a sweet little girl. How fun. I hope so bad that I have a girl next. So I didnt realize that Nicci has to have another surgery. When does that happen?
That video was SOOO precious! Nicci is so dang cute and you are such a darling mommy. And I love your hair! I just chopped all of mine off too. Feels great, huh? Aaron calls Las Vegas "the burning inferno of death" so I'm glad to have a more Vegas-friendly hair cut for the summer. P.S. Any advice for keeping cute baby girls cooler in the hot car/carseat? Emery pretty much freaks in the heat. What a Utah baby.
Brandi! Hello, this is Liz's friend Lindsay. I just wanted you to know that I have been reading your blog, and I think that you have such a cute little family. I love reading about life's adventures that come to your family. Cute hair, by the way! Anyway...I just wanted to say hi, and thanks for sucha cute blog! Your daughter is so cute! Very smart! Cute video! :0)
It's so hard for me to think of you with a kid! I know I know it has been years since I saw you but I swear it's like it was yesterday. Nicci is so dang stinkin adorable and of course so are you and of course so is your sweet hubby. How cute he was to point out your short hair! How sweet. Next time you all come down we will have to get together and do dinner or something! Emma will just eat Nicci up!
SO Adorable!!! Brandi we need to get together sometime soon! Now that the little splash parks are open we should go one morning before it gets too hot! =)
I just asked to be the ward play group specialist so you should bring Nicci to one of them. Anyone is invited!
You and your family are the CUTEST EVER!!! We really need to have you over. It's so wonderful to look at other families and see the Lord's hand in your life. I love it! You, Seth and your cute girl are awesome!
Brandi, you have the sweetest little girl!! I love reading your blog. I think few people are truly happy, and if you aren't, you fake it well. Love you hun.
I am a very passionate person. Sometimes that's a good thing, and sometimes it's not. I genuinely love people for who they are, not what they do. There's nothing better than a porch swing. My heart aches when i see sick people. I have an excitement for life that can't be explained. I like to people watch. I've never got enough of a rainy day. I have a bad habit of taking the most important things in life for granted. I live for competition. My mother is too special for words. I wish i had the ability to help everyone in need. My daughters can chase away any sadness with their smile. I feel sorry for self- consumed people- they're missing out on true happiness. I wish i were a big guy so that i could play pro football. My biggest pet peeve is self- righteous people. Abuse in general makes me cry. I can throw a football farther than any girl i know. I married my best friend. I believe we are all equal- despite popular belief. I love being the only girl + three brothers. Jeep Grand Cherokees are my obsession. I sing in the shower as loud as i can, close my eyes and pretend i'm in front of an audience. A lowercase i make me smile--An uppercase I irritates me. Chapstick is an absolute necessity. I express myself best through the piano. Very few people understand me, & very few take the time to understand. I write when it's quiet. I have a natural ability to photograph perfect moments. Dark cloudy days bring out a special kind of happiness inside of me. My mom is my absolute hero. I literally hate being small. I love to smile. It hurts that those i want to love so desperately won't give me a chance. I am a terrible speller. I could lay in the sun for days. I'm convinced there is no better man on earth than my husband. I have an obsession with neatness that irritates most people. I drive too fast. Two toes on each of my feet are webbed [and i love them]. I'm a daydreamer. I beleive ating TCBY's white chocolate mouse while listening to piano music in a warm bubble bath cures all sadness.

The Words of a Prophet
"I know that with the demands of daily living there is little time to read anything. But I promise you that if you will read that which we call scripture, there will come into your heart an understanding and a warmth that will be pleasing to experience. 'Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.' (John 5:39.) Read, for instance, the Gospel of John from its beginning to its end. Let the Lord speak for Himself to you, and His words will come with a quiet conviction that will make the words of his critics meaningless. Read also the testament of the New World, the Book of Mormon, brought forth as another witness that JESUS is the CHRIST, the ETERNAL GOD, manifesting Himself unto all nations."
President Gordon B. Hinckley Ensign, Apr. 1983, p. 7
