Months Keep Rolling By Lots has Happened In Our Lives







Well I last Posted in October. So For Halloween I was a funny looking person. I just wore some weird clothes and a wig it was fun. Matt went as Clark Kent (Superman). Daniel was a Fireman again this year and Liz was a Bumblebee again also this year. Costumes were not difficult this year. We had lots of fun trick or treating and visiting with family. Matt went to the Utah vs. Wyoming game which was also the black out game. I don't think I will be taking the children trick or treating alone ever again, game or no game.



November: We celebrated my 28th birthday! I can't believe how time is flying by. We had Thanksgiving at my sisters home which was so much fun. Then off to my grandparents. And to end the night back to Matt's parents home. It was a wonderful Thanksgiving. Before Thanksgiving I was in a biggest loser competition to lose weight and it went well. I lost 10 lbs! I was so proud of myself. Did I mention that was before Thanksgiving! No I really have done well to maintain the weight lose.

December: What a wonderful time of year. So much fun decorating. I was hoping we would be in a home by Christmas but things did not work out for this Christmas. So my mother in law was so nice and let us put up our own tree and we got out our decorations also. It was so nice to finally be able to decorate a regular size tree. Every year since we have been married we have had this tiny tree about 18 inches tall. All the decorations to hang on it started to collapse the tree and timber it was on its side. So we had to use small and light weight ornaments. This year was different we could use the heavy ornaments also. All of Matt's siblings came home for Christmas this year and it was so much fun to see everyone and have all the cousins play together. It was a wonderful Christmas. Well we put an offer on a home in Bountiful and will close on February 5th just 1 mile from Matt's work. We are excited

January: A new year. Well the inspection went well on the home just some minor things to take care of. Finally we will be home owners. Well we got some exciting news on January 9th and found out we were expecting our 3 child. Well now we have some disappointing news the METH test came back positive on the home in Bountiful and so we have pulled our offer and now we are back to square one. We could not beleive it. It was a wonderful home. The family living there was told by there agent why we pulled our offer and that family had no idea METH was in there home and has now moved out. We are so grateful we had it tested. We found out at 10pm at night it tested positive and I told Matt I don't know if I want to scream or punch the wall. We were so upset and exhausted at looking at homes. We will find the home we are suppose to be in. Excited and nervous as we still have no home and now another baby on the way we really have to start pushing the home search again.

February: So went into the Doctors in February and explained my pain that I started having in November before I was even pregnant, my OB decided to have me go in and have an ultrasound done. So I went in at 7 weeks to have the ultrasound and found out there was no heart beat. Shocked as could be as this was not even what were thinking would have been discovered. The ultrasound tech was done checking other things and asked if I would like to see the heart beat and I said sure. So it turned into an emotional day. I went back to my OB's office and they took some blood. So this continued for a couple weeks taking blood and going in for ultra sounds. It turned out that the chromosomes did not come together completely and I also had a blood clot next to the baby and if I did not have a miscarriage now I would further along. So through lots of prayers, thought, and tests also seeking a second opinion from another Dr. it was decided to go in for a D&C procedure to remove the blood clot and tissue. So I scheduled this for Wednesday February 10th. I went to pick Daniel up from school the Monday before this and he had fallen off the slide. He was standing by his teacher crying when I got there and they explained what happened. We went home iced his arm and gave him some medicine. Well later that night his elbow was still puffy so we took him to kids care and they took an Xray. We found out his wrist was for sure fractured and we have to wait on the results of his elbow. So he was in a temporary cast when we left that night from kids care. So when it rains it poors sometimes. So I went in for my procedure and everything went well. I went to LDS hospital and it was wonderful. I also ran in to some friends who work at the hospital from the University Village they will soon will be heading off to medical school. It is always nice to see someone you know. My mom went with me and stayed the entire time. Matt went to help in Daniel's class. Daniel had been waiting a month for Matt to go and help in his class and this day was there Valentines day. So it was important that Matt go with Daniel. My family was so wonderful with watching kids and taking care of me. I really appreciate everyones help. We couldn't have made it with out comforting words from friends and family. We love you all. Well great news now. We found a home in Kaysville and will close on this home on March 5th. Wish us luck!!! We will need it. We had a wonderful Valentines today also. Matt and his brother Mark made dinner for all the gals. It was wonderful. Thank you guys.
