Can’t Get Enough!

I know that the post earlier this week was only a small taste of what we all wanted regarding our fabulous new arrival! So, I’m going to add some more! Carter Dallin Monson was born on Monday morning at 8:23 AM. I feel like it was a pretty reasonable labor experience. I started having contractions […]

Grandmother’s Visit!

So…Once upon a time, we thought that we were going to have a baby by now.  A week ago Wednesday (April 9), I went in for my routine check up and my doctor told me that I was 75% effaced and dilated to 3 cm.  She told me that I should make an appointment for […]

Mornings with Daddy

I am the type of person who needs a lot of sleep. I’ve been like that since I was a brand new baby. Mother tells me that I slept through the night from the day I came home from the hospital (I’m so good to her).  But nothing has changed over the past 23.7 years, […]

A Word on Covenants and, of course, Fay

Just under 16 years ago (that is a long time!), I made my very first covenants! I promised Heavenly Father that I would take care of His children who needed help and love; I promised that I would always remember Him; and I promised to do my very best every single day to be like […]

St. Patrick’s Day!

Lest any of you are unaware, you should all know that Elisabeth Monson loves St. Patrick’s Day! There isn’t really any particular reason. I just do. And as such, we celebrate it with all our might!  Allow me to show you! So, basically, this St. Patrick’s season, all the credit goes to Josh.  He thought […]

Spring Break Staycation!

I have been fantasizing about spring break ever since March of 2009–my first Winter semester at BYU. Since we knew we would be doing grad school not at BYU, I have had this plan to go somewhere really cool and see lots of really cool things! Afterall, that’s what spring break is all aobut! I […]

Pregnancy Post

So, I’ve been getting requests from quite a few people to shed some light on how things are going with this pregnancy, as well as one request for how I am dressing this pregnancy.  So, here you go. As of today, I am 33 weeks and 2 days pregnant. Fay was born at 33 weeks […]

A Big Girl

I’m sorry if you get tired of hearing about Fay. She is my whole life, and she is REALLY cute!  If you don’t want anymore Fay, check out a different blog. 🙂 Anyway, Fay is growing up so fast, we hardly know what to do!  She is super smart and loves to share anything she […]
