C is for Couple

It's no secret - I'm in love with my husband! Our 2nd Anniversary is on Thursday! This picture is us in front of the Bellagio fountains in Las Vegas - on our honeymoon. We had so much fun just watching the fountains :) I am just in love with him now as I was then. He always has a way of making me smile and laugh! He is a great husband and a great father! I can't wait to grow older with him! :P

B is for Baby Smile

So I promised myself that I wasn't going to be one of those mom's that was obsessed with her kid - well........too late - I think I'm addicted. I love everything about him - even in the middle of the night. BUT to explain this picture - Today was my first day back to work....kind of - I'm just doing a couple of hours here and there of home health. ANY WHO - I dropped a very awake Dylan off to my sisters before my first appointment. I was about a mile away when I got this picture sent to my phone! Maybe it was the lack of sleep - but I almost cried. Dylan has just started smiling back at you when you make silly faces at him. I haven't been able to catch his smile on camera yet. But my sister did! Made my morning great - and the fact that I only got 4 hours of sleep worth it. Everything seems better when Dylan smiles!

A is for Adalynn

Some of my other fellow bloggers have done the - It's called an Encyclopedia of Me! Each day I will use the ABC's and post something about me! Hope you enjoy!

I thought this would be a great way to start this out. My name has always defined me through out my life. I think that my mom who also suffered from a odd name (Ordella) felt that she had to pass the curse on! (Just Kidding - Mom!) Some times I've loved it - most of the time I've hated it. When I was younger I would always wish my name was Britany - don't know why - just thought it was a lot better then ADALYNN! Most likely cause everyone would know how to say it. But I do have to say that my name has helped me though - I would always know who really knew me - and who didn't by how they would say my name. Most of the time it was the people that I didn't like that would say my name wrong and it would just make me not like them that much more. I always had a easy last name (Park) until I got married. So at least when I was being called (i.e. at the dr's) they could call Ms. Park - and I knew it was me. Now all I get is a long pause.........and then Adddddddalynn?????? Grrrrrrrr!

To say the least I am glad to have a crazy name - made me a more well rounded individual. I don't think I'll be passing the curse on to my children - but I'm glad for the character it has given me :)

WISCONSIN

I survived! Just verily though! I am ready to stay home for a while after Ty and I's adventures. Wisconsin was A LOT of fun! We were busy most of the time so it didn't really feel like vacation - BUT - it was lots of fun and we got to spend time with the people who mean a lot to us!

One of the main events was that Dylan got blessed! He is growing so fast I was scared that he wouldn't fit the outfit! I ended up borrowing the outfit - Dylan's cousin Nolan actually wore the it for his baptism. Kinda cool!

I wish I had more pic's but my camera decided to go on strike while we were out there and I only got it to work for a little to get pic's of Dylan.

While out there we also went to Ty's best friend's wedding. OH MY GOODNESS weddings are a whole lot different out there then here in little ole' Utah. It was really fun to experiance it all. Thank goodness I had my sis-in-law Kim to explain everything to me. ;) I also had my 25th birthday out there! Ty was so sweet and threw me a birthday bbq! It was really sweet and really fun! It turned into more of a pool party - and we ended the night playing Wii. Quite fun!

But now we are back to reality and trying to get use to it..... it's hard - it really is! Tonight I mowed our lawn - that hadn't been touched since before Dylan was born....I won't need to go to the gym for a while! ;) Oh gotta run - time for me to be mom!

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

Pix

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!

Introducing.....

DYLAN ROBERT THIEL

Born: June 28th, 2007

Orem, Utah

Weighed 7 lbs 4 oz

20 inches long!

The Burn Lotion!

Soooooo to take my mind off the fact that I am still pregnant my sisters "kidnapped" me and took me to the pool to hang out and soak up some rays! It was really a nice day - not too bad - a little over cast! Perfect pool day weather!

Well - all of you know that I am about as white as white girls come! Usually when I go out in the sun my legs are the LAST to get any color! I usually have to go to the tanning beds for them to look a little colored. Well because of that my sister gave me some of her "tanning lotion" I put it on my legs about a half hour before we left the pool. Well......

This is what happened! (Sorry that you have to look at my swollen legs) Everywhere I put the lotion......it BURNED! From the top half of me you can't even tell I was in the sun that much! I've been living with the Aloe Vera with Liticane and Cocoa Butter Lotion. <- They've been my best friends!

Last night was the longest night of my life though! Because most of the burn is on the inside of my leg it was hard to lay on my side....and with me being so big I can't lay on my back! Then the blankets.... (aurgh) Today it is feeling better -but still really sore and the few times Timber has come say Hi - well - I've been close to tears!

On a different note - I have offically started my Maturnity Leave (12 weeks away from work) - but I have another appointment tomorrow morning and if nothing's still happening I'm going to just work half days....until something happens!! I'll keep you all updated!

Frustration!

Ok - yeah - I think it is offically setting in. Everyone and their dogs are having their babies - except for me. (breathe) Girls that were due after me are having contractions - AND I don't think I've had one yet! I shouldn't be frustrated - but at my last appointment I still wasn't dialated OR efaced! And I have been doing EVERYTHING - EVERYONE has suggested. Ok - well everything except for the Caster Oil (yuck) .
ALSO at my last appointment she felt and said Dylan was going to be about 7 lbs some odd ounces. I can handle 7 lbs! I guess one of my worst fears is that I'm going to have to push a 10 lb baby out. 10 lbs = not fun.
Ok Ok - Now I am just whiney! Sorry for all who are reading this! Today is just one of those days ;)

Martha Stewart Eat Your Heart Out!

Soooooo - I don't know what I was thinking - BUT I took a trip to Roberts and got the creative bug. I think now that without my second job I'm having too much time on my hands and feel like I need to fill it with crafts! Watch out! Here is what I started with!
I painted these and then crazy glued the ribbon on - and crazy glued my fingers together! But it was fun! I tried to use more "manly" colors - and Ty approved.
This shows you where I hung it! All that stuff you see in the crib is things I've gotten from other people. Yesturday was like Christmas - my cousin Melissa stopped by and dropped off ALOT of baby boy clothes that her little boy grew out of before he wore. AND then my sister Heather dropped off ALOT of clothes that my sister Stacy had gotten together for me. THEN my mom came over tonight and dropped off some more gifts! I'm getting spoiled! Or should I say Dylan's getting spoiled!

Fun Fun Fun

So I finally got my husband back!!! He was suppose to fly out Monday - and his flight got canceled AGAIN! I was about to die! But then they switched him airlines and where he was flying to and I got him home around 11 o'clock Monday night!
Since then we've been busy with life. This last weekend we went to a Prenatal class at the hospital. Quite interesting to say the least. I did learn a lot of new things - so I think Ty and I are now ready to have Dylan!
Here are the picture's I promised - The Rocking Chair is my mother's day present! And this is the swing that my sister's got for me! So much fun!
This last week I also had my baby shower for work and got lots of cute clothes, diapers, and necessities!

Today is my mom's birthday - and we're about to leave for her party! She's 69 years old today! Happy Birthday Mom!

Crazy Weekend!

Oh my goodness! I've made it.....kind of! This last weekend was a little crazy. Of course from my last blog - Ty was gone - so my sister Heather and my Neice Talley came to stay with me. They really did help me out a lot - making it so I didn't focus on the emptiness of the house.
On Saturday my sister bought a new truck so we spent the day finding just the right one.....which took all day - but it was worth it!
Then we noticed that I was swelling REALLY BAD - and just in one leg. I really did look like the Michelin Man....We actually measured my ankle and it was almost 11 inches - and that was after I had been laying down! SOOOOOO we called the dr. on call and she told me - just to be safer then sorrier to go to Labor and Delivery and get checked out. While there we found out that I'm ok - b/p was a little high - and I was having contractions every 5 min's! I had no idea - and couldn't feel any of them and they were pretty good ones. BUT they sent me home saying to lay down A LOT on my left side and lay off the salt :(

THEN on Sunday - TY was suppose to come home - but because of bad weather his flight was canceled :( Weather is worse today then it was yesturday - so everyone cross your fingers that he will be able to leave and come home!

The rest of this week should be fine - I'm having my work baby shower tomorrow and then then next day we are having a card making party! :) I'm such a girl! I'll keep everyone posted on the happen's though!

I MISS MY HUSBAND!

Ty left this morning for Wisconsin! He is headed out there for a wedding - for one of his best friends from High School. While he is out there he gets to go to our nephew Nolan's birthday party. He is going to have so much fun!
BUT last night - was - WoW! Amazing! My mother's day present finally got into the store so we got to go pick it up. It was a glider rocking chair! Ty picked it out and he did a great job - it matches the nursery perfectly! ALSO my mom gave me some baby presents AND Rubarb Pie (yum) THEN my sister's Heather and Christina surprised me and went in together and got me the swing I really really wanted. Soooo last night Ty and I stayed up ate some pie and put everything together. We didn't get to bed till after midnight - but it was worth it! Made waking up at 4:30 a little hard - but it was worth it! :) I'll get pic's up soon of both my presents!
It's so exciting to see everything come together for Dylan!

I Can Bring My Baby Home!

After A LOT of procrastinating and a couple of BAD dreams (one of the dreams was about not being able to bring Dylan home) - Ty and I went out and bought the car seat and stroller! I honestly think I was a little in denial that I was going to have a baby - and that's why I put it off for so long. But now that D-Day is only 3 and 1/2 weeks away - I thought I better get the ball rolling! I'm so excited now - and each time I see them I smile!

Now I just need to get a swing and I think I'll be set! :) All set for June 26th or 27th! Not any sooner! Ty is actually going out to Wisconsin this coming weekend for a wedding! My sister Heather is going to stay with me just to make sure I'm ok! It will be sad to not have him around - BUT - I know he'll be having ALOT of fun and he deserves it!

Superwoman has Limits

For all of you out there that know me pretty well - know that I like to be busy. I'm not one to sit around and watch time go by. In fact I have been famous on making myself a little too busy at times and undertaking too many things all at once. I love it though - and I've often called my self Superwoman for doing all of it so well. But today I found out I have limits. (gasp)
Ty and I were all ready to go down to New Mexico for the weekend when today (after only having 4 hours of sleep last night) I started blacking out at work, and having dizzy spells that would last a half hour or so at a time. Everyone was telling me to go home BUT of course I didn't listen. When I did get home it was so bad I was sick. So of course I call my sister (she knows everything ;), and her advise......"Adalynn, why don't you slow down? You are almost 9 months pregnant!" (Of course I had to be talking to her as I was headed to my second job) And it hit me - I am only human - about to give birth to another human - maybe I should slow down. Not totally stop.....but slow down. One of those "ah-ha" moments! So I thought I would share it with all of you - and let all of you know I'm starting to slow down. And yes Superwoman is human and does have limits!

I'm a Auntie.......again!

This is my new little neice Ivie Rose Thiel! We haven't been able to meet her quite yet - but this is the pic that my brother-in-law sent us! We are heading down to New Mexico next weekend to see her......and her parents! :) We are so excited for them! Congrats Phil and Sarah!

For Nicky!

Ugh! I can't believe I am posting these! But this is Adalynn 8 months pregnant - in all my glory! For my dear friend Nicky! You owe me!

Ty insisted on doing a close up of the belly!
Ugh! The only way I even let these pic's be taken is for the sake of knowing in a few months I'll look back and smile. But right now - ugh!

Babysitting!

So last night my sister Christina and my brother-in-law Ben went to the Gwen Stefani/Akon concert - and while they went - Ty and I helped babysit Conner and Haylee. As you will notice there are no pictures of Haylee - BECAUSE - she was not a very happy baby - let's just put it that way. She really gave Ty and I and our neighbors a upclose and personal look at what it's going to be like with a baby! Eeeeekkkk! Too late to go back now! Just kidding!

This is Ty and Conner - showing off their "guns"! I have no idea what Conner was trying to do - BUT - he wanted his picture taken with his face like this! This is his Elephant he HAD to take a picture of!

ALL and ALL it was a good night! Very eye opening! ;)

The Crib

So this is the crib that we got for Dylan. We got his room painted so it's not a lime green - and now it just sits there. I walk by his room every time I head to the bathroom (which is a lot;) and it is like a haunting reminder that in not too long there is going to be a baby in there. :) <- I'm so excited!
Other then that Ty and I spent yesturday up in Salt Lake at the Genealogy Library. Yeah makes us sound REALLY old but it was fun. We worked on his Grandma VanCuyk's side - and learned a little Dutch. We also went and looked at a book that was written about the Thiel side - it was a lot of fun. We had a lot of the information we found - BUT we also found some missing childern that will be happy to be with their families again I'm sure! We still have lots of work to do!
Just thought I would post this pic. of Timber - He LOVES to look out the window and watch EVERYTHING. Especially the neighbor cats that like to walk by and tease him.

Ty's Celebrity Look Alikes

Happy Easter

WoW! I am soooo sorry for those of you that check my blog! I have been a major slacker and for that there is no excuse. Spring is here - as most of you know - and that means a lot of things. 1 - Everyone is getting married and 2 - Lot and Lots of yard work.

Since Ty and I are married the first doesn't really apply to us. BUT the second is consuming our weekends. As most of you know we moved into our house in September. Not leaving a lot of time for us to get our yard the way we would like it. So this spring we have found out that our yard needs A LOT of TLC. My first surprise is that I have tulips

Second surprise is that I have lots and lots and LOTS of dandilions. When I was little I loved to play with them - now I despise them.

Timber is loving being outside more - he liked the snow - liked to eat the snow I should say. But he didn't like to get cold.

Here is a pic of a slice of me Ryan, Haylee, Preston and Conner - They came over last weekend to help us take some things to the dump!

As far as Ty and I we are keeping busy - my stomach is getting bigger and June seems to be sneaking up on us WAY too fast. I've started going to the dr. every two weeks now. Pretty soon Summer will be here and so will Dylan! I'm excited and scared at the same time. It's a first timer thing I'm sure :)

I promise to keep up on my blogging better - Happy Easter

doggy pic's

Timber is just too cute some times! This is him practicing "sit"!

Who could say no to a face like this! ;)

This is Kirsten and her puppy Hayley! She is only 16 weeks old and about as big as Timber. Next time they meet Hayley will be twice as big as Timber!

Genealogy....I am doing it!

So lately I have cut down on my second job, found out we are going to Mexico in November, done A LOT of baby shopping, started Timber in a Dog Training class, AND have helped Ty start doing his Genealogy. It has been really fun! We got all the information that Ty's mom had on her side (Van Cuyk) and have just gone CRAZY! His mom's family is from the Netherlands - and from Ty we have been able to trace back 8 generations! In a week from this Sat we are taking a trip up to the Genealogy Center in SLC to find out more details - but WoW!
As far as all the other stuff I've been up to - it's been keeping me busy! We ordered Dylan's crib - and have started cleaning everything out of his room. Timber LOVES his new training class - I'll have to take a picture of him. Sooooo Cute! Mexico - we are going to go to Mazatlan with Ty's family on a family vacation! It's not till November BUT we are already counting down the days! AND yeah - things have been going good in our neck of the woods. When I get home I'll download some of our latest pic's!

I know, I know...

K - so it's been a little while! Sorry Nicky! After reading your blog I have been inspired! ;) I swear I have been busy! Promise! To start with last weekend we had visitors. It was fun - and.....interesting! Kirsten came down from Idaho for a day with her new boyfriend Dusty and her cute doggy Hayley! Timber was in heaven having another dog in the house. That same weekend my cousin Rebecca from Logan came and spent the night - so our little home was full - and that felt great! That was my President's day weekend.

This last weekend I was soooo mad. My little nephew Ryan had his birthday party. (He turned 10 - isn't that crazy) Any who - all he wanted was a Tamagotchi v-4. It is like a gigga pet (for all you old timers!) Any ways - I searched all of Provo - only to find that everyone was sold out! Oh I was hot! Made me start thinking how it's going to be when I have Dylan - and I go searching for toys.....ahhhh!


Other then that I've been busy getting bigger - and working! ;)


OH OH OH - I found out some very disturbing news today. Daylight saving is coming early this year. March 11th early! Isn't that sooooo wrong!


K - so before this blog get's any weirder I'm going to post a picture of Dylan and sign off!


TTFN my friends

Happy Valentine's Day

I love my husband! He is the cutest! And since today is Valentine's - I can say that and people don't roll their eyes. We had a nice dinner together and then watched the movie he got for me Phantom of the Opera! What a cutie!

Other then that we have been busy - Ty working and me working! Poor Timber!I'm going to be quitting my second job here in a little so that will free up some more time - especially on the weekends so we can come and visit everyone! This weekend we are going to start work on the nursery! And with the long weekend we might have some vistors! Yahoo- I love visitors!

It's a...

Sooo Ty and I weren't going to find out what we were going have. BUT we changed our minds. The suspense was killing us and we weren't finding too much "gender neutral" things. So we found out and IT'S A BOY! We were hoping it was a boy and I'd been dreaming it was a boy - so for our hopes and dreams to come true was exciting!

The Baby Bump

So incase everyone was wondering what I look like pregnant.....you needn't wait any longer. This is me 5 months along! And that bump is just big enough that it makes me uncomfortable in everything I wear, ugh! And that baby is sooooo active! For a while I was thinking that I would never feel the baby move and then BAM, not a fludder, not a twitch, but a big kick directed at getting out! It's been fun though feeling Baby (since we aren't finding out if it is a boy or girl that is the name we've choosen).
Just wanted to post this real quick - more pic's will come of Ty and the dog! Ty has a "baby bump" of his own! ;)

AaaaahhhhhhhhH!

I just had my first professional facial done! WoW! I highly recommend it to everyone! Made me feel like a princess!

What To Do With The Nursery

Here are some pic's of gender neutral nurseries for the baby! I want to know what ya'all think - and which one I should pick. I don't think I'll do the exact colors but something like these......maybe!I thought this first one would look good - cause we have wood floors!

This one is cute! I don't know about the blue..... but it is a good idea!

I'm not a big fan of the green....but I love the ceiling.

-k- so tell me - 1,2, or 3.....or a combination! Thanks friends!

UPDATE!

WoW! The week seriously went by too fast! Lots of things have been happening around these here parts! :) I've been working my 2 jobs - which isn't as bad as it sounds. Only bad part is that I have to wake up around 5 in the morning on the weekends - but I'm thinking it is just good practice for when we have the baby! ALSO - this last week - I put a new laminant floor in the downstairs kitchen for our renters that moved in on Saturday. I think here pretty soon I'll be able to put carpenter on my resume! :)
As far as Ty is going - his blood just won't thin out! Which means he is house bound. Poor guy is getting so bored - but has a great attitude knowing that he'll be up and walking around in no time. He has 3 appointments on Friday so we'll be able to tell everyone more news then.
Other then that - life is good - we are starting to plan how we are going to decorate the baby's room - and how we will rearrange everything else in the house. Lots of projects that is for sure.
I'll try and get more pic's up of how things are looking around here. Until then ttfn.

Crazy, Scary Weekend

This weekend was one that won't be forgotten! Other then it being the start of a new year - Ty got a real big scare. On Saturday he had started having chest pain that would last about a hour and then go away. At first he didn't want to go to the hospital - but after telling him that chest pain is bad no matter what - we agreed that if it happened again we would go to the e.r. 4 a.m Sunday morning - it started again. At the e.r. they found that it was a blood clot in his right lower lung. It is a huge thing - and all the nurses kept on telling us how lucky Ty was to be alive and told him he had cheated death. He was in for 2 days but is now home where I want him to stay! He is on medicine to thin his blood. One of the meds - would have cost $502 if we didn't have insurance! Thank goodness we have insurance - it cut the cost to almost nothing. We have A LOT to be greatful for this new year! And Ty made a promise that we wouldn't ring in 2008 the same way we rang in 2007!
