Our newest addition




WOW oh Wow! Has it been a long time to post.

Alot has happened in the last couple of months.

We have a new baby. Her name is MacKenzie Snow Craig. She is named after my dad's side of the family with Snow being Lorenzo Snow. We came upon this little bit of information while we were in KY for Christmas. We always name our children after one side of the family and this just seemed to fit. MacKenzie joined us a little soon. She was born at 36 weeks. She weighed 6 pounds even. For a Craig baby, she was super tiny! She started to lose weight her first two weeks. Doctors had us on a strict feeding schedule and we are happy to say that at her 8 week
appointment she was 11.4! YAY! So I have got my Craig baby back for sure now. She looks
like Caroline but with much darker hair, and she has Abbey's eyes. I would like to say that it only took me 5 babies to get one that looks a little like me. She has my nose and Brent's cheeks. We all love her so much. The kids love on her all the time and Jackson is so good to give her cuddles as much as we let him.

We are moving to Utah again in a week. I have mixed feelings about it.
On one side we are moving "home" I am from UT so I should be happy right? And don't get me wrong, I love UT. My family is there, the church is bigger there, great opportunity for Brent there. But I have grown to love Navarre! It has truly become my "home". This is the longest we have ever lived in one town, the most "roots" we've laid. And let's face it, it is a great place to visit. We have beautiful beaches, sunshine most days, and the kids love school, friends, and church here. It will be crazy to be back with all our family again. I look forward to it. But a little piece of me will be staying here in Navarre. We will miss all of our friends and new family.

It tough to leave a place called home. But I'm postive you will love being back "home" and make a fantastic friends and have the bonus of having family close. but I know moving sucks!
