Amazing Sisters!










I seriously have the most amazing sisters in the world. I love them so much! (That includes you Jena!). If I were to ask anyone of them for something, it wouldn't even be a question, they would be right there for me. I don't know how I got so lucky! I love you guys so much!


Kimmie is amazing. She is such a giver. She is always willing to help anyone. She is quiet, but has a heart of gold.


Jena is so wonderful. She never complains. Jena takes time to really listen to people and help other's in need. She has patience like I have never seen.


Kristin is great! She takes time to call me everyday just to see how we are doing. She is a goer, she wants to be planning something for someone, all the time.


Ashlee is such a beautiful person. She has the type of personality that everyone loves. She gets along with everyone and is always trying to include others. She always has a smile on her face, and she can make you laugh at any time!


So, lately Ashlee has been doing so many things. She is trying out for Vistauns right now, and she does not even seem nervous. I am SURE I am more nervous that she is. Also, she is running for Student Council. We made her posters the other night, and they turned out great. She is so creative! ( I think she took all the creative genes because I am not creative at all.)


Thanks beautiful girls for letting me call you my sisters!

I DID IT!!!

I wasn't sure I was going to be able to say this, but here it goes: I AM GRADUATING! Shout it from the roof tops! I wasn't sure I was going to make it through it. But I did it. I just turned in my last paper and I feel like 100 pounds has been lifted off my back (a girl can only dream, right?). I am all set to graduate on April 22nd, 2011. I am very proud of myself. I have found a new sense of self in knowing I was able to complete graduate schooling. Now I can focus more on the things I love, such as family/friends, caring for others and educating others. I want to become a better person, and I have truly learned more than I can explain by going to school (not just about education, but about myself). I am going to take just a second to brag, and say I am happy for what I have accomplished and glad I can set an example for my daughter! Now, to take the advice of one of my favorite PhD instructors, own who you are and what you do. That being said here it goes: I am Natalie Rigby Britt, RN, MSN-ed. Take that life!!!!

She did it!


Kaidance peed in the toilet! I can't believe it. I know it probably wasn't planned, but I almost started to cry when it happened. I can't believe my baby girl is getting so big.

It happened when we were getting ready for tubby time. I had her all undressed, so I just sat her on her potty and told her to try to piddle. I was talking, (like I always do) about some nonsense I am sure. I was telling her about how big girls wear panties and how they don't have to wear itchy diapers because they go potty in the toilet. All of the sudden I hear her throne making music. I was in shock. I was wondering if it was real. Sure enough, there was urine in her little pink toilet. She just looked at me like, "Okay mom, will you be quiet now?"

Anyway, just wanted to document the first time she went potty in the the toilet, as April 14th, 2011.


P.S. I am sure she will love that I posted this when she gets a little older!

My BFF

Kaidance Khloe (AKA my BFF)

Kaidance is my BFF! I would spend every single day with her if I could. She may get sick of me, but oh geeze, I could kiss her cheeks all day long.

Today we went to Logan and I took her to ride the quarter (50 cents now) rides in the front of the mall. She is in Heaven. She loves it. She also loves the other kids there, until they get too close to her! HAHA.

After the mall we headed to Cafe Sabor. We met up with a bunch of girls from work. They are all so fun. We were having a going away party for one of my favorite girls I work with. She just started a new job at McKay Dee. Boo for us, Yay for her! I love ya Teen, and will miss you so dang much!


Oh, and just so you all know, I got home at 2 and realized I had left my coffee cup sitting out. ( I know, how could I not clean up after myself). Well anyway, as I was going to dump it and put it in the dishwasher, I realized a HEART had formed on the top of the coffee. Check it out! It is so amazing. Now I don't want to dump it out!

She is my LIFE!

She is so cute! She HAS to wear her new necklace everyday!
These are her new shoes! She loves them and carries them around with her. She melts my heart when she sits down and attempts to put them on herself!
Loving this life!
Swinging is her favorite!

I have had the best time with Kaidance the last few days. I have had 4 straight days off of work. We have attempted to make the best of our days together! She never ceases to amaze me. I smile everytime I look at her.

Oh, and I am probably the worlds worst mom, because when I attempt to punish her for her fit-throwing, I laugh because it is so funny! (then she laughs back) We just have the most amazing times together.

It's a DATE!

All ready to go!
Runny WILD!
Loving the Ride.
Playing a game.
Climbing up the slide!



I had to go to Weber State today and pick-up my cap and gown for graduation. (YAY for me). So, I figured I would make it a date. Heather and I packed up the girls after breakfast and headed to Ogden. It was a great day! The girls were very good. Bre and Camber watched a movie and Kaidance just watched them the whole way there.

Then we went to eat and to Fat Cats. I had never been, but it was a blast. Kaidance loved it! The girls got some energy out and then the two little ones slept the whole way home!

It was a fun little trip! Glad I was able to have a great day off with some of my favorite girls!
