First and Hopefully Not the Last

So I've decided to enter the blogging world. This is my first post and for those of you that really know me, I'm kind of a procrastinator and can be pretty lazy sometimes, so hopefully I will keep up. I figured that since I'm home all day with Roxy that maybe I could find some time to post at least once or twice a month. We'll see. I'll now just update anyone who is wondering about our lives at the moment. Matt and I are living in Clearfield, UT. We bought our first house the summer of 2006. Matt is working as a quality assurance manager for Kroger Foods at the Layton frozen dough plant. We had a little baby girl on August 16, 2007. Her name is Roxy JaNae Leonhardt. She is so cute and is now 5 months old. They grow so stinkin' fast. Her favorite thing to do right now is roll, roll, roll. She loves it and does it all the time. I have started working at the daycare at the gym just 2 hours a week, mostly to keep our free gym passes. I have also started working for the Sandlot in Ogden doing Softball training, lessons, and clinics. It's nice to get out of the house now and then, and Matt is great to watch Roxy while I'm gone. He is a great dad and is loving this new adventure. And I love being a mom. It's definitely challenging sometimes, but it's all worth it.
We are keeping ourselves busy when we're not working and while Roxy is being content. Matt loves working on different projects around the house, building, sculpting, carving, and refinishing anything he can. He also works hard keeping the elders quorum in ship shape. I am serving in the primary and like to find any sports league I can play in. I just finished up a soccer league and am now playing in a volleyball league. And as soon as spring comes I'll be back into softball.
Well that's about it from here. We'll see how long it takes me to post again. Till then.
Here are some pictures of us this past little while...

Cute kid guys!!! You should have a camera next time someone hands her to me so that you can get a "1st time screaming her head off" photo.

Roxy's pics are adorable. I am so excited that you are going to be a member of bloggers-r-us. It will be interesting to see what all goes on at the Leonhardt household.

Welcome to the blogging world!! I can't believe how big Roxy is, she is so dang cute. I love all of that hair. Now you need to convince your sister to start a blog, unless she already has one and is holding out on me!
