I feel like I am so behind it isn't worth catching up! I am debating whether or not to just give up on the whole blogging thing! Also I am little frustrated because I posted a special on my photography blog and it is not showing up on other blogs as an update!! Any suggestions??? Well maybe tomorrow I will have more energy to do something! Thanks for the vent!

Cute Cousins!

I was so lucky o be able to go up and see my sister's little boys right after Elliott was born. We did these pictures when she was 5 days old and he was 8 days old. Are they not the sweetest little munchkins, ahhh I could eat them both!

Elliott Bracken

Our little girl came to our family on July 14, 2009 @ 8:12 a.m. She was 7 lbs. 10 oz. 19 inches long and has the most hair out of any of my kids!

Elliott Bracken

Where to start well, I thought I was feeling labor pains Monday night so I hung around until 11:30 then we decided to go to St. George. I am always so afraid that when I get down there they will stop and we will have to come home. We got there and they got me hooked up the machines, and the contractions stayed. By the end of the hour of monitoring they checked me again and I was still a 4, but the babies head had descended and the doc on duty made the call to keep me because I needed antibiotics for Strep B. I was so happy, because that was one of my main concerns when I found out I had Strep B with this one was that I wouldn't have enough time to get the antibiotic in me before she came. So by 2:00 I had my IV in and they had the juice pumping in my system! Well no shortly after that my contractions almost completely stopped. I was concerned but they were not, they told me that once i got the first bag in my then they would call Dr. Lunt and he would break my water and then they would start the second bag. So at 6:00 Dr. Lunt came in broke my water and checked me, I was a 5. Dang I was starting to think this was going to be a LONG day! In the mean time a new nursing staff had came on duty and she told me as soon as I got the bag of saline in me then they would get my epidural. So at about 6:45 they call the anesthesiologist to come in. By the time everything was done it was around 7:15. AS I laid there patiently and anxiously waiting for the numbness to take over my nurse checked me and informed me I was a 9. Yep I have gone 4 centimeters in about 45 mins. So they had to put the catheter in me before I was numb, but at that point I was in more pain from the contractions so it didn't matter. The cute nurse that was assisting told them to get the anesthesiologist back here to get me a block. The other nurse came over checked me and then QUICKLY informed that there was no way he would get down here in time and I was going to have this baby. I had a little panic attack as I watched Dr. Lunt and 5 other nurses come flying into the room, pulling carts out getting Dr. Lunt dressed as fast as they could. All I could do was lay there and click the epidural clicker even though I knew it would do anything it seemed to calm me down a little. Kirby was very sweet, he could see the pain and fear I was going through and stood by me, I can't remember what he was saying but just o have him there was very comforting. They had me push through 5 contractions. The pain was muted a little from the epidural but boy did I feel so pain when her head and shoulders came out. I am grateful I was at least 1/2 numb I can't imagine nor do I want to having a natural birth. My body just progressed faster than the epidural could keep up, good to know, I have never had my water broken before, so now I know to have all hand on deck for next time! She was chubby faced when she came out and looked like a little Eskimo baby. She has been a eater from the first time I tried to nurse and has not stopped. WE are so lucky that everything went so smooth and that she is healthy and had no problems. The boys love her and we are absolutely in love and I think she already has her dad wrapped around her finger!

My labor was at night so my poor hay farming husband was going on 4 hours of sleep from the previous day!

After she was born we were a very tired group!

The boys seeing her for the first time and loving the hospital bed!

At home wanting to hold her non stop!

My dad seeing her for the first time and me meeting my nephew for the first time. Roz and Drew's baby boy Nash he is 3 days older than Elliott!

She came!!!

I am sooooo happy to be done with my prego belly and have a sweet little girl in my arms. I will post some more pics in a little bit but I quickly wanted to post this one that I hurried and edited of Roz and Drew's baby Nash and our baby Elliott. I have not gone through them all, but this one is really cute. They ended up being 3 days apart! More to come...

One of the nights that Kirby was trying to sleep before going to work, we decided to go to the park! We didn't last very long, well I didn't last very long the wind was blowing and I was being a wimp. So after about 30 mins I made them call it quits. I did manage to take a few pictures of them being crazy while we were there. They would live at the park I am afraid, we really need to get a bigger swing set that they can run and jump on!

Lists...

I find myself making lists almost everyday of the things that I need to get done before the baby comes. The bad part is ... I feel like that is all I do is make the list, then never cross anything off. I have lost my husband to his job so I am afraid the big things I would like to accomplish just might have to wait! I saw this picture in an cleaning advertisement and I thought this is me, I always look like this while I am cleaning!

Pregnancy Update:

I am getting closer I have been a little annoyed lately with being pregnant. I have had a few too many comments from strangers at Walmart, and other places telling me I look like I am going to pop. It drives me crazy, I have learned to accept the comments and move on when they are from men, I figure they just really have no idea what they are talking about. The women that comment and then proceed to ask me if I am having twins or tell me I am as big as they were when they were prego with twins, those are the ones that might find themselves knocked out. I just wonder why after experiencing the felling of looking big, they would even open their mouths! Oh well, I have gotten over it and I just keep telling myself, I am not that big, even though my children think I am! Oh well!

WOW

I have become the biggest slacker when it comes to blogging. I have not been able for the life of me get myself to do this. Well everyone I have done it I caught up and I am not sure any of it is interesting to any of you, but that has been our lives for the last 5 or so weeks. I am excited to go to the doctor this Wed. time is offically flying by. Davis' last day of school in May 14 and I know after that it will be July and I will have 3 kids before I know it. We have been trying to get the nursery set up and get all the odds and ends that need to be organized and put away before my routine with 3 children becomes crazy! So I will try to stay on top of this blogging, but I walking up and down the stairs is not that fun to me anymore, so I tend to use the upstairs computer a little more. So the pictures and blogging gets put on hold! So thanks for your patience, and hopefully I will see you soon!

CUBS vs. DODGERS!

GAME 2

This was a cold one and a fun one to watch. Davis played against his two cousins Ryland and Bracken. It was a lot of fun to watch them improve from the first week. I am proud of them, it was cold and windy, but they really did great!

SCORE!

Well we have great neighbors and they have decided to re-do their gravel in front of their house. They were so very kind to offer their old stuff to us. :) So as Kirby began to make the giant mound the boys got out their snow sleds and began to surf down the hill. Talk about entertainment. They did this for at least an hour before I made them come in for the night. Needless to say they were out there the next day doing it again over and over! Crazies!!!

Batter Up!

This was the first game of the season and I have to say that Davis did really good. He has a pretty natural talent for most sports, it is just getting him to pay attention that is the hard part. He really wanted to be a part of every play the first inning, but grasped that concept by the second inning. I was very proud of him and I thin he is so cute in his uniform.

GOOOO CUBS!

Happy Easter!

We had a very low key Easter this year and it was a lot of fun. Friday night we had a cook out down at the farm with yummy food and a huge fire. We wrapped up the party with our teenagerebels coming out in all of us with a little coal hot potato game, a little fire jumping and yes this was all while our children watched. Well I guess they will probably do it too someday, they might as well see the masters do it first! Saturday we headed up to the reservoir with Jed and Karisti to have a picnic. It was extremely cold. That really didn't bother the boys too much, the ran and played all over the rocks as I froze my bum off! Sunday was a great day, it was so warm and my two little handsome boys looked great in their new church clothes. (thanks Grandma Kunz) After church the Easter bunny visited our house and left the boys plenty of candy and some air pellet guns. These are their favorite things still. They really have had a great time with them and have obeyed all the rules we instructed. we had a great time this year!

Ear Candling

I went up to my parents house for conference because it was my mom's spring break also. During the second session of conference we did a little ear candling. The boys thought it was the neatest thing. Davis kept asking me to talk to him in a softer voice just to see if he could hear better. Davis had quite a bit of was that came out and sweet Ky, well he was so into the spa moment he fell asleep on the first ear and slept through the second one. It is really cool, and even though my husband still thinks it might be a hoax, I think he was a little impressed with what came out of his ears!

State Wrestling

We were pretty excited about the state wrestling tournament, my mom and dad decided to make the trip down to see Davis. He was so excited, unfortunately the excitement seemed to wear off pretty fast. He was totally pumped for his first match and did really well, pinning the kid in the second round. His second match was a different story he was all smiles and was just out there to play. He ended up losing that one by points. After waiting for at leas 1.5 hours and having them move us from mat to mat, he finally wrestled his 3rd and unfortunately final match. He did really good starting off, but the other kid kept choking Davis and then getting points. So by the end the poor Davis was frustrated and really upset. as the tears started to well up in his eyes we walked to the car where Grandpa Kunz had a cheeseburger waiting there for him. You would have thought he was the STATE CHAMPION. He was so excited, and we were so proud of him. He did awesome the entire season, never got pinned once and has some real potential at becoming a great wrestler!

Great job Davis!!!

3rd times a charm!

This was Davis' 3rd meet and he did awesome. I was so proud of him. He weighed in at 46 lbs. so it put him in as the smallest in his weight class. That didn't phase him though. The first match he came out fired up and pinned his opponent in under a minute. He has done really good at listening to Kirby and really seems to understand the different moves he has taught him. The second match was a little tougher, his opponent would stiffen up like a board every time he was put on his stomach, so it was hard for Davis to get him flipped over. He almost pinned him a couple times, but in the end won by points. The final match was my favorite, he came out took the kid down right off the bat, and pinned him in 30 secs. I really like those kind, there is too much anxiety watching and waiting to see what happens. I can't imagine when he gets into completion sports and high school. I now know how my parents felt all those years of me playing.

First Match

Second Match

Third Match

The end results!

GREAT JOB DAVIS!

Long overdue!

I took these picture back in October when I was scoping a location for pictures. My poor boys get so sick of being my guinea pigs, that I rarely get decent pictures of them. These ones turned out pretty cute, so I had to share!

All dogs go to heaven and come back right???

cause if not I am going to have one upset little boy! On our way home from Kaysville on Monday, we were ahead of the storm. By the time we got to Enterprise the clouds were getting heavier and you could see little rays of Sunshine breaking through. I was listening to the radio, but could hear talking. I turned it down and asked Davis what he was talking about. He said to me "I'm just talking to Dez!" (our dog that died Dec. 07) I said "Oh really what are you telling her?" "I was just telling her that she will be okay in heaven, and that Jesus will protect her. I told her she can play with Fraggles, (my childhood dog) Ash, (my brother's dog) Zip, (Kirby's childhood dog) and Princy (my mom's childhood dog) and she can come live with me again when Jesus comes back to earth." I just sat there. Here is my 5 year old giving me a lesson about the Resurrection, that I am sure he hasn't learned from me. The faith of a little child amazes me.

Skating Rink...

We went to Classic skating while we were at my parents house. It was a lot of fun they let you bring scooters. They had a blast! Davis started pulling out these Blades of Glory moves, Roz and I were dying! The best part was this lady that was there, she was into it to say the least!

I have a video of Davis, and it is the best one so hopefully it will upload eventually!

Abuse or Good Hygiene????

Here is Kyron's first trip to my sister's spa/baby room. Ky had a little uni-brow developing so I had her take care of it. The video is pretty funny, especially his face at the very beginning. Please enjoy, and remember that he agreed to it!
