I'm Going To Get Bad At This

This last weekend we went down to Farmington, New Mexico for the blessing of Dylan's cousin Ivie Rose! It was a long trip (6 hours 1 way) BUT it was worth it. Ty's bro and sis-in-law got some 4 wheelers - so we played and had a great time visiting! This is our first little family picture! Dylan was pulling faces the whole time and looking everywhere but at the camera! As I was saying Dylan was making A LOT of funny faces! He has such the personality already. OH - he has also developed the need to make noise ALL the time. He doesn't cry - and he's not in any pain - he just likes to make noise. He'll be dead a sleep and just grunting and cooing. I'm not a heavy sleeper - so i won't lie - he's kept me up! Ty just say's he's trying to tell everyone a story........a very LONG story! :)

Now for the explination about the title to this blog! Tomorrow we leave for our vacation to Wisconsin. We'll be gone a week! So don't expect a blog from me for about a week and a half. I think I'm really going to need to recover - but when I do bounce back (and get the virus off of our computer) I will have lots of news and pic's to show. Ty will be in a wedding, Dylan will be getting blessed, and I will be turning 25! Have a great week and a half!

Gettin Things Going

So here is a pic of me and my little man about a week ago. After this pic was taken I took a nap - cause I saw how insainly tierd I looked! Now I don't look so tierd and I'm starting to get things going.

Our renters are moving out here in about a week - so I've been showing the apartment like crazy. I want to have somone moving in Aug. 1 (if not sooner). Ty and I are going to Wisconsin for a week and I want everything in place before we leave. **** So if anyone knows someone that needs a 1 bedroom apartment in Provo - send them my way****

We also have Ty's mom and Neice Amber coming into town on Friday - They are going to spend some time with us then head down to New Mexico so they can meet Ivie. Then we are going down to New Mexico the last weekend for Ivie's blessing and to bring Rose (Ty's Mom) and Amber back up to catch their plane. THEN a couple of day's after they leave we are leaving for Wisconsin - Ty's best friend Andy is getting married Aug 3rd - and then we are blessing Dylan August 5th! (My birthday!) ****Does anyone know where to get a cute little boys blessing outfit???***** I'm getting tierd just typing this!

OH ALSO UPDATE - I've been calling T-Mobile every day about my stolen cell phone. They are crazy - Ty and I have been with them for 4 years - and all they could do is take $2.75 off of the charges that were made. (I'm going to keep on calling!)

Gotta Run!

Stupid People!

Grrrrrrrrrr! So - everyone knows that I lost my cell phone! It's been terrible living without it the past week or so! I lost it at the hospital - just as I was checking out. Since I knew I had lost it there I talked with the nurses, gave a report to lost and found, AND had Ty stop by the hospital and see if he could find someone who knew about it. OF COURSE nothing turned up. So - today I decided to check our cell phone account. Well - someone found my phone and decided to start calling Mexico on it. They have charged about $150 in international phone calls and text messaging. Which my cell phone company told me I have to pay. AND they have also used most of our minutes - which we can't get reimburssed. I've filed a police report and am filing a complaint with the hospital (I'm pretty sure it was one of the cleaning ladies). I have all the phone numbers they called - and am hoping to get someone fired! <- I'm really mad! It is mind blowing how stupid people can be. I'm just glad that I found out about it. I can only imagine what our bill would look like if I wouldn't of checked our account! I'll let everyone know when I get my number back. In the mean time......Grrrrrrrrrrr!

So - now that I'm home all the time - you will all probably all notice a lot more postings appearing on my site. Hope you don't mind.

This last weekend - as I mentioned in my last post - Ty's brother and sis-in-law came up to see Dylan. It was the first time for us to see their baby Ivie! First of all I have to mention the to-die-for eyes that she has. She is going to be fighting off all the boys with those eyes!

They invited us to go boating with them - and we couldn't turn them down. DON'T worry. All I did was sit on the boat, in the shade, and hold Dylan. It actually felt great to get outside and feel the wind in my hair!


Here is Ivie and Dylan in their cute little life jackets. Dylan's was a little big - and he had a crazy heat rash to match it!

This is Ty Surfing. It is some what like wake boarding - but your feet are free and you get up close to the boat, throw the rope in, and surf behind the boat! Ty did really good for his first time!Another cute pic. of Dylan and Ivie! Both of them pretty much slept the whole time! That night - we went over to my brother-in-laws - for Ty to help him put up some sheet rock in his basement. Conner was dieing to hold Dylan - and Dylan looked so relaxed in his arms I had to take a pic!

1 Week And Counting

I've offically been a mom for 1 week! And to tell you the truth it is awesome! It's really crazy to think that something so pure and perfect came from me and Ty. I know, I know - give it a few years and I'll be singing a different tune. :) To tell you the truth the only bad part of being a mom is ALL the emotions that come with the new job! i.e. Last night Ty came home with the wrong size of diapers (he didn't know they had different sizes) - and I lost it - I seriously was in tears.....over diapers! What next! Side Note - THANK YOU Nicky for the words of advise! You know exactly what to say and when to say it......I think we've been friends for too long - just kidding - not long enough!

BUT - I have been getting better a lot faster then I thought I would. Thanks A LOT to my mom who has come over everyday - cleaned my house, done laundry, walked the dog, watered the lawn, and cleaned surfaces that hadn't been cleaned in a long time! She and Ty have to yell at me still to take it slow - and to take my pain pills when I'm in pain (I don't like the way they make me feel)

This weekend we got a fun treat! Ty's brother Phil and his wife Sarah with their baby Ivie came up to visit Dylan! Ivie is so cute! And I know when Ivie and Dylan grow up a little more they are going to be best of friends! I'll post pic's next time of their meeting.

Well - I think I hear my little man calling for me! ttfn

Proud Daddy!

Proud Mommy

(that looks like she got hit by a truck!)

Proud Cousin Talley

She won't put Dylan's pic down - takes it everywhere!
Ready to go home!

Story Time

So - for all of you that I haven't called.....I AM SORRY! For the first couple of days I was completely out of it - and now - I've lost my cell phone some how so this is me calling everyone and telling you how it went.
Wednesday of last week (27th) I was sent to the hospital to get some testing done. One of the tests was to see how much Amniotic Fluid I had. They like the score to be 6 or higher and I was at a 4. With that failing score they decided to induce me. So at about 4 o'clock that afternoon they started my labor. As the night progessed so did my contractions. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be - but bad enough that I couldn't get comfortable OR sleep. At 4:30 the next morning they started the Pitocin. I still wasn't progressing though - so my dr came over to "find my cervix" <- long story - and to break my water. I was told that it wasn't going to feel good AT ALL - and that the dr. was telling me to get a Epidural. So like a good patient I listened - and about a half hour after I got the epidural (8:30) I got my water broke (9:00) and found out I was only at a 2!!!! It seems like as soon as they did that we started having problems with Dylan's heart. I had a AWESOME nurse that had went through almost the same thing with her baby 3 months before - so she knew exactly what to look for and what to do.
I was actually falling a sleep for the first time in who knows how long - when she came in and told Ty and I that within 20 min's I was going to be taken back, given a C-Section, and have a baby! It was the scaryest thing! But everyone taking care of me (including Ty) were amazing and helped me settle down! Ty was by my side and watched the whole thing! The only bad part was that after Dylan was born I only got to see him for a couple of seconds - and then it was a hour before I could see and hold him.
Slowly but surely I'm starting to get back on my feet - and I'm able to do more and more each day.
OH - the other scary story - on Friday night Ty forgot to close one of our doors all the way and Timber ran away! Tim had been out and about for 6 hours by the time Ty came back and noticed. THANK GOODNESS one of our neighbors saw him and took him in. For a little I thought that I had just got a son and lost another! Pathetic I know - but I was really sad. BUT now all is well and we are one happy family!
