Just for fun!

Here is Wyatt enjoying the fun things he got from Ethan Hodes birthday party!!
Wyatt is soooo in love with his littlest cousin Maxxwell!!! Maxx is just about 5 1/2 months old. I myself am quite fond of Maxx also, given the fact that he has red hair!! Hopefully he keeps the red hair and gets his moms rad curls!!!

The joys of owning your own home

When we first moved into our house about 2 1/2 years ago the first thing I wanted to get rid of was a huge cottonwood tree in our backyard! I hate cottonwoods and there was no way I was going to keep that beautiful but trashy tree in our yard. So last year we had the tree cut down and then just today we finally had the stump removed! The stump was huge and just made the yard look awful especially after many attempts of trying to dig it out...which was not going to happen! I saved some money that I was able to earn myself until we had enough to have 3 stumps around our yard removed. Some girls save up there money for a new pair of shoes but I hated looking at that huge stump in our yard so it was definately worth the money we paid for them all to be gone! Now we can get our yard underway and hopefully get some grass planted! I also don't have to worry anymore about kids falling into the trench that was dug around the stump. This may be fairly boring to those who are reading this, but it's actually pretty exciting for us!

Now you see it!!
Now you don't!!!!!!

Wyatt has a crush!!

Wyatt loves his girlfriend Alli Hurrle! I watch Alli and her older brother Nathan once a week at our house. The three of them play so well together...so it's always nice to have them over!

Happy Easter!

Moderate bed rest? Now what does that "really" mean?

Well, the doc put me on moderate bed rest until 36 weeks...which is ten weeks from now! I'm a little confused about the whole thing but just know that I am supposed to slow down and take it easy. This means no traveling, exercising, no long shopping trips even to the grocery store, no lifting, and lots of other similar stuff. It kind of stinks! However, I do believe that I have the ideal situation for having to be considered somewhat on bed rest! The hardest thing is not being able to pick Wyatt up and having to explain that to him. He is slowly starting to get it. All in all the baby is doing well and right on target with its growth. Hopefully things will continue to progress the way they have up to this point...and I'm sure they will as long as I am following doctors orders!!

Look how you can notice the bones in the babies arms...it's that crazy!

Growing up to be like his dad!

Wyatt has loved playing any kind of ball since before he turned one! Now that Monte has been playing basketball with the church team Wyatt is even more obsessed than ever! Now whenever we go to the church he thinks that we are there to play ball. This is where a valuable lesson comes into play in helping Wyatt to understand that we don't play basketball on Sundays...we are at the church to learn about Jesus. I think that he is actually grasping the concept!

Trying to take it easy!?

Well, all went well with the procedure/surgery on Sunday. The worst part of it all was being so completely numb from the belly button down. I was so anxious to move my legs that once the anesthesia started to wear off I was having some pretty out-of-control leg spasms. At first it was extrememly comical, then it got a little annoying. However, as for right now I am trying to take it easy. Which is turning out to be quite difficult! Especially when Monte is working a ton of hours and comes home exhausted...making it hard to ask him for help. I don't know how moms with several kids make it safely through their pregnancies?!
