Auri Lynn Brown

Well the good news is I found out I can blog from my phone! This hopefully means I will be a little bit better at updating my blog!
So tomorrow Auri is going to be 2 months old! Holy crap the time has flown by! She still feels brand new to my life and I don't know if I'll ever get used to the fact that I'm a mommy!
I always hear about a mothers love and that you will think your baby is beautiful no matter what.. Well I won't lie I was worried I was going to have an ugly alien baby. I know it sounds so vain but I didn't care I just didn't want it for her sake! Well the good news is I literally have the most beautiful precious baby I have ever seen! I can't believe how in love with her I am and how much joy she brings to me and Carson's life!
Not only that but she is a great baby! Don't get me wrong we have our good and bad days and I am definitely tired.. (Especially now since its 4am) But over all she is happy and sleeps good and is super strong! She rolled over from her belly to back at 6 weeks old! Needless to say I've never been more happy in my entire life!

Oh and last thing tonight Carson and I had our first date night to a vivint banquet and Auri was left to play with her Grammy! It was tough but a well needed break! And Carson won an award for the top first year office in his region! I'm so proud of him and his hard work! He is the most adorable dad a girl could ask for! Auri is one lucky lady and so am I!

A Ray Of Sunshine On A Cloudy Day

The other night I was putting Auri to bed, and I was tired and a little down with all the stuff life throws at ya. And I was just thinking about if I didn't have Auri it would be so much easier to just be lazy and give up. In that moment I really realized how she makes me want to be a better person. I don't want to let her down because her future depends on me. She is such an example of joy and beauty and I can't help but try to be like her. Even in this scary unknown world, she can put that all aside and find joy in the small and simple things, like the pretty pattern on her burp cloth. She amazes me every single day with how much she learns and grows! I am so lucky to be her mama and I hope someday I can return the favor and be a good example to her!

Sleepless Nights

Auri had her 2 month shots this week and she handled it like a champ! She cried for a few minutes and was fine from then on. She was a little fussy for a couple days because she had a fever and I'm sure her little legs were sore! But I think she was also going through a growth spurt at the time because she was waking up early from all her naps hungry and waking up multiple times at night! Last night was by far the worst. I think I slept for a total of 3 hours and that was broken up over maybe 4 or 5 segments! She had a tummy ache from some spicy food I had for dinner.. We both learned our lesson... No more spicy food! But there is good news too! Carson started his internship and will hopefully be done by march and then he will finally graduate!! Also Carson won an award at vivint for having the top first year office in his region! Which is great and he is going to join offices this year with another team and hopefully have another great summer! I'm so proud of all of his har

Stories I Can’t Forget

This summer, in Indiana, I read this picture book of the Book of Mormon to Auri and Brylee. We finished the book and I had a prompting to say a prayer with my girls and ask if what we had read was true. They answered yes, so I told them that we would pray and ask and then after we would be really quiet so we could listen for the spirit. That was all I said. I said the prayer and asked if what we had read was true. Then we sat there. Brylee was only 3 and was able to sit still for only a minute but after a little bit longer, Auri turned to me and said mom I have this really warm feeling right here (she was touching her chest). I never told her how an answer might come, but this was a testimony to me that the spirit is very real and you don’t have to be a certain age to feel it. I was able to explain to her that the Holy Ghost was answering by that warm feeling she was feeling. A cute story about my sweet Brylee is that I asked her if she wanted to watch a show, and she immediately answ
