First Friends

Christian and I are lucky enough to have all of our friends have babies around the same time we did! We had everyone over this weekend for dinner and it was a full house! There were 4 babies!!!! It was so fun! taking pictures of them was so funny because Eden, who's the oldest, kept being a big bully, especially to daxton, the only boy!!! She was taking his binky from his mouth and grabbing his face...it was funny! Daxton wasn't enjoying it at all! The other girls, Savannah and Aiya were just hanging out!

So I just had to scrap this picture! Isn't my baby so cute!

Love

So I recently discovered this song that I absolutley love! You know when you're listening to your itunes and a song comes on that youhaven't heard in forever, and it suddenly has new meaning...well that's what it was like with this song. It's called 'I'm in Love With You' by Joy Williams. Here are the lyrics.

I've been waiting all my life for this morning
Just to wake up next to you holding me
And your head is resting gently on my shoulder
Like you're whispering to me

I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
So glad I found you
I'm in love with you

When we're leaving dreams and rolling back the covers
All at once we're getting ready for the day
It's when you look at me in the mirror while you're shaving
Before I go on my way, you say

I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
You're the one I choose
‘Cause I'm in love

Love is joy and love is pain
It's kissing in the rain
It's doing dishes when it's late
Isn't it, baby
It's the art of compromise
It's hellos and long goodbyes
It's the picture of our lives
Isn't it crazy

So I'll call you when I get to where I'm going
And I'll tell everyone we know you said hello
And without fail they'll ask me if I miss you
Of course I do, you know I do

‘Cause I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
You're the one I choose

I'm in love
I'm in love with you
I'm in love with you
I love you just the same as I did the day
I fell in love with you

So when I was listening to this song I had the best idea for a scrapbook page...hehe! Well I'm always doing pages of my sweet baby so I wanted to do a page of me and my cute hubby! I just love him so much! it was really fun scrapping a page with him and I! He's the best!

Happiness is...

So this is my cute baby as usual! She is just darling that I can't stop scrapping pictures of her! I love her!

Finally a new page and a SALE!!!!

Ok people!! So this friday is known as "Black Friday". The day after Thanksgiving is one of the biggest shopping days of the year and Scrapmatters.com wants to be a part of it! We're having a huge sale so you all need to come and check it out!!!

This is Eden's Great Aunt, or Graunty as she wants to be called! She loves Eden! We've gotten to see her quite a few times since Eden was born! it's so nice to have so many people that love her!

Hello there! Wow it's been a long time! I'm so sorry...for some reason I've just been so busy lately! Well I don't have any scrap LO's to post today because I'm working on christmas presents and I can't put them on here!!! SO i thought i would just add some cute pics from recently! Christian is on a flag football team for intermurals at BYU where he goes to school! He LOVES football. He lives for these games! They are really good too! Eden and I didn't get to make it to too many of their games because they were always after her bed time, but we decided to go for their last game! it was so much fun (exceot they lost) but it was fun to watch him doing something he loves! It was FREEZING that night too so we were all wrapped up in tons of balnkets! We took a picture of Eden sitting in the camping chair just loving it! It was so cute! Me and Victoria and Jackie, all wives of the team, all recently had babies! It's fun being in the same place in life as most of your friends!

The last picture is one I just took of cute Eden on her tummy! I'm tryig to teach her to crawl...I know I know, I should just let it happen because she's going to get into everything once she realizes she can move! But she's just so cute when she tries! So she's cuddling with her pooh bear on her tummy!

Hopefully I'll have time to scrap LO's other than christmas gifts so I can post them!

Trick or Treat

Well this year we decided that we'd start a little family tradition. We went and picked our pumpkins from a pumpkin patch!! It was so much fun. Even Eden loved it. She just loves being outside and seeing all the colors! It was seriously so fun. So then we got dressed up for halloween and Eden was a princess...is she not the cutest princess you've ever seen!!!!!! She looked SO cute!!! There'll be more pics later of all of us!

My Baby Love

So my dad took this 'oh so cute' picture while we were on vacation in Canada! I think this might be my favorite page so far! You can see my credits in my galleries!

Seattle fun!

When Christian and I took our trip to Seattle, we were walking through Kerry Park and found this tree that had craved in a heart "M+C" It was so awesome! Christian and I were so amazed so we stopped and took pictures! Eden and I took some cute pics too so I thought I'd do a cute page for her and I!

First Snow

Yes we got snow in Provo yesterday! I couldn't believe it. I'm not ready for winter! But it sure does make it easy for great pictures!!!!

My sweet little one!

So I was going through pictures from When Eden was little and these pictures are jsut so cute that I had to scrap them! She was SO happy when we got her this bumbo chair! She LOVED it so much. She was just laughing and laughing! She's just such a happy beautiful baby!! I'm so lucky!

We took a trip to Canada recently for my brother's wedding, which was GREAT, but we got some really great pictures from the day of the wedding! Credits for this page and the other pages are on my galleries at scrapmatters.com, and digishoptalk.com.

So here is the cutest page I just did of Eden! Isn't she cute! I love this page. It might be my favorite so far!!


So on Friday, Christian and I got a really great chance to get pictures taken by this amazing photographer, Melissa Davis. My sister in law entered Eden in this competition for a free photo session and Eden won!! SO we got to have Melissa take picture of Eden for over an hour and she got some AMAZING shots!!! These are just a couple of the pictures. Seriously, if anyone lives in UT and wants amazing pictures, this is the girl to go to! Check out her site melissadavisphotography.com. She's making a new website right now but that link will direct you to her blog where you can see her great work! She's so good! We loved her! Eden had so much fun too. She is getting so good at sitting up all by herself!! Well i hope you like them!

So Eden hit a milestone today! She sat up by herself!! It was the cutest thing. We've been trying to get her to do it and she always would fall over! But today when we sat her up, she stayed up!! It was SO awesome!! I love how big she's getting!!

So my oh so talented sister-in-law, designerbrittney, did it again! She created the cutest kit called "Missed the Bus" It was so cute! You can go and download it for FREE at her blog.
So Eden has a best friend...haha! Well their moms want them to be best friends! Savannah Kate Barnett is almost a month old! She's so cute! Eden and Savannah have play dates, and Eden loves to touch Savannah! It's the cutest thing!! Doesn't Savannah look like she could be a doll? She's SO little!!! It's hard to believe that Eden was that size once! She's so big now!!!!

Go Cougs!!!

Well hello! So Christian, my husband goes to Brigham Young University and is a HUGE football fan!! We love going ot the games. On Saturday was the first BYU game of the season and so we initiated Eden, our 4 month old daughter, into the cougar world!! It was SO hot and SO loud that she was not happy at first!! But I think she knew that her daddy wanted so badly to be a cougar fan, that she made it through! She was so good and we had such a fun time. She was laughing and cheering and showing everyone just how cute she was! We took the cutest pictures that I had to come home and scrap them that night! I'm a little crazy!!!! But I was so happy with this page so I hope you all enjoy it too! Oh and the cougars won! YAY!!!

When we were living in Chicago last summer, my friend Victoria and I went to see one of our favorite bands, Angels and Airwaves, in concert! It was so much fun!

Hello everyone. I've been working on a few pages. One of which I used my VERY talented sister-in-law's kit that she jsut put out. It's SO cute! She did such a good job. The other one is of Eden's favorite play toy. Her little lamby! She loves it. She just chews on it. It's so cute!!!

Here's another page using the tricks I was taught this week. Isn't my little girl so cute. She's the best little baby. She's getting so big. She's starting to do so many cute things. She's laughing like a real little girl and she's getting so strong in her legs. I just love her!!

So I've been trying to learn some new tricks for Scrapbooking! I hope you like it!

Love, Marci

So here's is just a couple of the CUTE pics we took when Aunt Brittney and Uncle Josh came to visit us last weekend! We had so much fun with them. Eden loves her Aunt Britt!

Hello there! So Christian's sister, Brittney, and her husband Josh came to visit us. It was so much fun having them here! We did lots of fun things. We went to the beach, we went to Disneyland...it was a blast! So I scrapped a couple pages of the beach! Hope you like em!

WOW!! Finally I've been able to add pictures. I think I was maybe trying to add too many. But here are the pages I've been working on. Aren't her earings so cute!!! And she loved being outside the other day! Well we're going to Texas in a couple of weeks again and I am SO excited. I can't wait to see my family. And I can't wait for them to see Eden. She's changed even since the last time we saw them! Well I hope you enjoy!!

It's been a while...

Wow it's been a while! Things with the Rodee family are as good as ever! Eden is growing up so fast and we're just loving every minute of it. She weighs a little over 12 pounds!!! She's definately a good eater! She is trying so hard to sit up and roll over and she is making all kinds of cute noises! She's starting to realize that she can pick things up! She has a toy that we hang in her car seat and she usually will just stare and giggle at it, but today she grabbed it and put it in her mouth!!! She's so cute! We also got her ears pierced on Tuesday! She is just darling with them. I'll put some pictures up in a little bit!
But I've been working on my journal a little bit and have started doing the pages for Eden's birth! There are going to be so many! I just wanted to post a few of them because I just love them. As I was going back to read what I had written in my journal for her birth, I cried, of course, remembering how hard it was and just how very worth it it was. It was such and amazing experience. One that I could never really put into words. Well I hope you like!
Love, Marci
