update-BABY!

Well we received some WONDERFUL news today! And let me tell you that I needed it more than I have ever needed anything.... The day before Christmas Eve we received a call from the baby Dr saying he had some concerns with the ultra sound. He (like so many Dr's told us with absolutely no tact!) That he was worried because the baby had numerous large cysts in it's brain. And said it could mean a number of things to do with brain damage. And just like that he said bye and sent us to a specialist, which was over a month wait. (it sure made our Christmas wonderful =( ) We couldnt even bring ourselves to talk about. I have been worried truly scared.... But I did my own research and learned that it really isn't that big of a deal and most of the time the cysts don't mean anything and can just go away. So today we met with the specialist (over three hours of tests!) and ..........They were totally gone!!!!! and he is beautiful, strong and healthy!!! Let me tell you tho, sitting in there waiting for the results with my legs shaking really broke my heart for all the mothers who aren't as lucky.....I will never take for granted my healthy babies. I am already so in love with this little man and so is his daddy!!! we would have just crumbled if today hadn't been so perfect. We are so blessed. I love my little family!

But rather than a low lying placenta and my joints officially going out in my lower back life is now just fine! As far as my back goes I cant work out anymore, and I have to go to physical therapy 1-2 times a week. I don't know what is worse the pain from it or not being able to work out! I would have to say not being able to work out, ha ha!

But here are some pictures of the little man from today!!! He is so dang cute! I could have just watched him in there playing all day!


I have had some baby bump requests and I finally have one so here ya go! just going into my seventh month. As soon as i find my camera charger i will post pictures of the new place (sorry grandma I will get some on here =)

Christmas vacation

We had such a great December. It was majorly crazy but it was great, and we survived! We barely got all moved into our new place, and then busted it home on Christmas Eve. And I am so glad we made it, because it was so fun. We first went to Ryes moms and dads to open some presents, then headed over to the woods party, which is always so fun! and then headed over to my grandma Rhodes for my favorite tradition, oyster stew, then stopped by my grandma moyles! We are on the ball, haha! it was a very fun, but long night. Christmas was great tho. Holden gets funner every year, we are so exited for next year when he will be even funner and we will have a almost one year old again. We spent that night with rye's mom and dad, and Holden and Russ danced all night! it was so cute! The Whole holiday was so nice. We were able to go to the temple with my whole family, a few movies, the usual outdoor activities, shop, snowboarding ( not me tho =( ) visit, and lots more. New years was also a lot of fun. Holden had so much fun. and was sooooooo spoiled. Not very many kids have six grandmas that totally adore them! and cousins that are all only months apart. He loves them all so much, I am sure if any of you saw him you were greeted with mounds of kisses! We hope you all had a great holiday!


I didnt have my camera, so wasn't able to take very many pictures on Christmas or the whole trip, luckily Sam had some of him on Christmas. He started in his pj's and then had a peepee accident after he opened his stocking! He was so exited with all his presents, he was shaking! it was funny!

Daddy took hoge to my farm to let him ride some tractors (he is obsessed) he love it! and he also got to ride his four wheeler he got for Christmas. he loved the buffalo, or as he called them the "baby puppies." It is fun taking your babies places you grew up.


My mom took us all to kangaroo jacks! that place is fun! But as you can see it took the babies a while to warm up to it! They were so funny! they all just cried and cried at first! But then they had a blast.

We went and saw avatar (3d) and Holden and Bentley wore those glasses for hours! they looked so funny! Holden kept doing this old man look and saying "Hewo"

Oh, baby baby!

Well You will be happy to know we will be having our 2nd baby boy in April! We are so exited. I was so nervous when we were finding out that I was almost sick! ( I really wanted it to be a girl) But when they said boy I was so exited I started to cry!!! I think I must have really wanted one! But we are so happy, and cant wait to see how this little guy will be. Anyway life is soooooo crazy so I will update on pictures of the little guy, the new house, December, and what ever Else when I get a second. MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone! oh, by the way my tittle says "ew baby baby" because that's the song Holden sings when we talk about the baby! and he does Rye's happy dance he taught him! it's pretty cute!

Choo-Choo TRAIN!

We had so much fun going home for thanksgiving! We had the best Thanksgiving dinner ever with Ryes family. I ate like a pig. We did a few family things with my family to. But the highlight of the trip was going to Rainbow Canyon Nevada and doing my favorite thing, Breakfast at Ryes and my favorite little diner and then heading up the canyon (which is beautiful) to watch the trains. And if anybody knows my child, they will know, he is crazy obsessed with Choo-choo trains! So, my family made a special trip there just for Holden to see a real choochoo. He loved it. I love just simple little family trips like these. I cant wait until we can always be near our families. We just love them all!Holden and Bentley were so cute, they really have quite the love hate relationship tho, they are either making out (literally) or punching each other! Holden had a blast smashing coins on the tracks!

Bio-Oil

This could very well be the greatest invention in the world for pregnant women! I have so many pregnant friends and I really recommend you use this every day your whole pregnancy! I used it with Holden because I was so paranoid about ruining my stomach, I soon found out that my legs, thighs, arms, boobs, and pretty much everything Else would be in need of saving!!! (sorry to get graphic) But I used it loyally everyday. I had started getting them in certain areas, and within a month they were not visible at all. I made it my whole pregnancy with no stretch marks except for one place that I didn't think to put it, and they are so awful! It also helps with the elasticity in your skin so it can suck back, tighten up, and heal better! It also treats marks and scars you
already have, and it works great! I get it at Walgreen's.

mean parents!

Our little Pocahontas!!! Haha! Our poor children are in for a world of humiliation with Rye and I, but I thought he looked adorable! He was a little Indian boy, and yes it is a boy costume. We thought we would be in Farmington for Halloween, so the costume was intended for farmington, and was funnier. But still he was a hit in Enterprise. We took him to the carnival the night before Halloween and 60% of the people thought "SHE" was the most beautiful Pocahontas they had ever seen!!! One poor lady had my mom in tears from laughter! (Holden is going to kill us someday!) We had a great Halloween tho! He loved to trick or treat. And it was fun to see our families!

My nieces and Nephews all looked so cute! I wish I had pictures of them all.My dad is such a trooper! He took Noah to the carnival like that! pretty scary!

Family in New Mexico!

So, We were finally able to get my family to come and visit! and we had so much fun. Jack and Erin were blessing their baby, so most all of my family came down to visit. My sisters came down with their kids on Friday, and they wanted to take them to the zoo, so we all had a sibling bonding trip and headed to Albuquerque, it was a blast! My parents got here that night. The blessing went wonderful. It was fun to have a huge luncheon with family. That night my parents invited us all over to their hotel room, they had a HUGE SWEET! (which was bigger then any of our homes!) and we had takeout and played cards all night. Monday we had a picnic at my favorite park, and did some shopping, and then left the kids with Darbye, and headed to Durango Colorado. We wondered down town durango trying to find the perfect place to eat, and then just had a great, LOUD, dinner together! Holden was in absolute heaven having so many friends. I absolutely love and miss my family! Thanks for coming!
