more pics of Maycee

Here are a few more pics from my phone. They seem a little dark to me but it could just be my screen. Hope you enjoy!

Maycee Elizabeth, 12/22/2010

Here is our cute little Maycee Elizabeth! she couldn't wait to join our family and came 2 weeks early. She was 5 lbs. 15 oz. and 19 1/2 inch. This meant she was 1.5 lbs heavier and 2 inches taller than Cayley. She fits in Preemie clothes which I love and hopefully we can get at least 1-2 more weeks in Preemie everything. I was planning on having a C-section anyways ( back to back) but I actually went into labor so that was "Fun" (not!). She was really close to being born on Tim's brother, Don's, birthday but she was 6 minutes too late, darn that paperwork! Oh well, she now has her own birthdate of December 22, 2010. Sandwiched between Don and me. We came home after 3 days (should have stayed the extra day to get the good meds and one on one attention but oh well) so we could be home for Christmas and to see Tim's family before they all went back to their homes. We love having her and Cayley loves holding her (even though it is only for about 30 seconds sat a time).




Well, I will work on getting more pictures off my phone and I will try to keep you updated more than 2X a year. Hope everyone had a great Holiday, I know we did.

I love this picture and the colors. This was from out trip to Washington to visit Jenn, Adam, and Collin. We had fun but it was wet.


















Cayley picked out the swim suit and the goggles.





















Cayley at the splash pad with our neighbors and friends: Daisy, Dreyson, Zach, Ashley, and Zach and Ashley's friends (can't remember their names).

So it's been a while

I don't have pictures right now but I am at least going to say something. This year has been great. We have started school again, we had a family reunion in Logan, we have played lots of games including our new favorite DOMINION, visited Canada for a week, done a little camping, I was in charge of Girls Camp for my ward, Went to Texas for a school conference and got to see the 6th Floor Museum where JFK was shot, moved back home with Tim's parents, I am coaching Cross country for the 3rd year, I helped with Track in the Spring (I get to video record the finishes and post individual times for the sprints), and dealt with morning sickness (lasted about 12 weeks but gone now...phew!)and we found out we are having another girl.

This is a glimpse of what we have done at least since about March. I will try to get some pictures up soon.

Oh yeah, now Jeff and Cristy are both at BYU and we can visit them and they can visit us. Now 3 of the 6 Valenza's are in Utah (majority since Jenn is in WA and the parents are in CA) I guess that means they all need to come to Utah for vacation more often.
