Our home in Guadalajara, Mexico

We moved to Jalisco, Mexico. Its about 10 min. from Guadalajara. And 21hrs. from Mesa AZ!Adam is going to medical school at UAG and just started doing his PMC (patient medical care) at the hospital a week ago!

We love it here! The people are so beautiful inside and out! Our ward is so friendly and patient with our slow spanish:) They just called me into the primary presidency. I am so excited! I don't mind if the kids laugh at my spanish. Thank goodness its not R.S.:)

Everything is so different here. The driving is like being in Manhatten, NY. You just honk and go! I say a prayer and get my hand on the horn!lol I've never seen so many nice cars. Our 2006 Toyota is the ghetto car in our neighborhood. Our neighbors drive BMW, Mercedes, Lexus and a Jaguar. And the women here are so beautiful! Some are tall with long thick hair and beautiful skin! They get so dressed up just to go to the store. I mean they are all decked out in their skinny jeans and stelleto heals. Apparently I have to step it up a notch:)

We love our neighborhood! And when the trash guys come they ring this cow bell and load it by hand. I think the bell is so cute! We usually leave them some pesos or they "forget" to take it the next time!lol We live near a church and on Sundays you can hear the big bells. So pretty! Our neighborhood is gated with a 24hr. security guard and the guards are so sweet. They always try to talk to us so we just say gracias and smile:) We bring them pastries and tacos so now we're their mejores amigos:) Here's some pics of our house and the Zapopan cathedral. Its only about 7 min. from our house!

This was the night we got here in the rain and so we look a little scary after being in the car for 4 days!

Family Pictures

I love how these pictures turned out! Jessica Drew did an amazing job! And of course my girls had to strike a pose in every one:) They are so cute!

Five weeks

Brian is doing so good. He started holding his head up when he was a couple days old and now he'll pull his whole upper body off my shoulder when I'm holding him. He is so strong! He has to be to deal with Payton's constant harassing!:) He went to the Dr. for his 1 month check up and he weighs 11.6 pounds and is 24 1/2 in. long. He is one big 5 week old for sure!:) We just adore him, he's so sweet and patient with all the hugs and kisses he gets!

Brian Hunter has arrived!

I'm back with a new blog address. I still can't believe I accidentally deleted my blog!
Well, we have a new addition to our family......Brian Hunter was born Nov.1 He weighed 9.2 and was 22in. long (no wonder my appendix and every other organ hurt everyday!!) He gave a good scare when he was born because the cord was wrapped around his neck and he was completely purple! I have never seen that before. He wasn't crying or anything, so they gave him some oxygen and he started "pinking" up. We feel so blessed everything turned out ok! He is the sweetest little guy! We just can't hug and kiss him enough:) Especially his sisters. Taylor and Payton think they're his "Mom." I am so happy to finally have my boy and could name him after my little brother B.J. (Brian James)
Brian could not stop looking at his Dad, it was so cute!

Holding their brother for the first time:)
Here's the blog of some professional pictures Jessica Drew took of Brian. They are precious, she did such a great job! jessicadrewphotography.blogspot.com
