Happy Birthday sweety pie!

We celebrated Holdens first Birthday!! Rye and I were so exited, probably way more than Holden was, ha ha. All day was a fun day for him. When Rye got home we had his party. We wish so bad you all could have been there for it. We had two cakes one big one (for Rye and I ha ha) and Holden had his own mini cake, rye insisted. We sang him happy birthday and before we could finish he grabed the cake. So we had cake before opening the gifts. Thats why he is dressed different in the pictures, he had to take a bath before opening presents. He loved all his new trucks and even his clothes. But the second he saw his big tonka truck from grandma deb, he was gone. After we went out and ate and he got some more good stuff. It was so fun! And notice my beautiful flowers in the background! I have the best mother-in-law! (love you Deb) Holden made me push him around in his tonka truck! He loved it. There is also a picture of his cute lil' cake.
Happy Birthday Baby Boy, We love you!!!



a online scrapbooking page I did for him :)

I feel good!!!

I just had such a fun day with Holden today! And thought Hey i will blog about that! Well, first of all I better explain why I am such a happy girl lately. Honestly I feel like a whole new person, and let this be a lesson to you all. I will hurry and explain, take care of your teeth!!!!!! last year this month I had a cavity, and got it fixed, keep in mind I was 9 months prego, but anyway the dentist did a bad job and made my feeling way to big and it was touching the nerve in my mouth and irritating it. With in a week my tooth had abscessed (dont know how to spell that) But it was so painful, I would rather have a baby! It was so bad because not only was it abscessed but my nerve was infected because of the iritation. Anyway I went to two dentists and they said nothing was wrong, because it wasnt decayed at all, and they didn't catch the nerve thing. Anyway I dealt with it for a year. On the 7th of this month, my birthday, it happend again. I wanted to die! But I had not felt good for months, my chest hurt so bad, and I always felt so sick, and I had lost so much weight. That night I was so sick that i just barfed and criedbecause I was in so much pain!, and my temp. was 103. So Rye took me to the emergency room and they helped a little, by making the pain go away, but I went to a dentist the next day and he about died. The infection had spread clear up my face. And he said the poison from your teeth really puts stress on your heart, damages it, and when the infection gets to your brain you will die!! he said a kid in Farmington just died last week because of one! ahh scary hu. My chest pains were so bad! But now we took care of the infection, got rid of that awful tooth, and I feel so different. (I really miss my tooth though :( For the past year I have been just feeling worse and worse, and just had not felt like "me" . I cant believe the difference in me, I finally feel like Portia!!!

We went on a walk today! He was so dang cute. He cant quite walk yet, so he pushed his grocery cart all the way to the park, where you can see (above) he figured out that dirt tasted bad!!! He took a big bite, and I watched him just freeze.......for like 30 sec.......because he was like in shock!

Hoggi Bear!!!

Holdens First steps!!!

So we have this child.....This boy is insane but we love him!! He is so much like both of us it makes us laugh all the time. He is so strong for a little kid, and really taugh. He feels no pain! Its actaully really wierd. His first birthday is coming up soon, and I am so exited. He's going to be getting his fist tonka truck, and he is going to love it! He already drives anything, and everything around the kitchen (trucks, brushes, books, brooms, everything!) and he makes the driving noise. He is a mommys boy though! It makes me happy, I think I would feel bad if he liked Rye more ha ha. But daddys his 2nd favorite! He makes me so exited to have another one. Anyway I will most some pictures of him, so I can show him off, lol!
