Well 2012 update

Well I guess I can update a 13 months later or so.... Alot has happened this last year! Bryson is in 4th grade, Lilly 3rd, Dallyn 2nd year of preschool and Little Ady turned 1!!! We also bought a lot around the corner of our 2 story house, sold the two story house and we Built a house in 85 days and we as the general contractor. We had to get all the subs, clean everything and I had to babysit a couple of the subs.

The house we love! It was fun building but having done about 75% of the general contracting I will say I don't think i will ever do it again and if I do I will die of a Hernia! The stress is unbelievable. I am so glad to be home mostly know and let my poor Ady out of the car! Maybe she will walk in a month! She is 13 months and has no desire to walk. I am hoping maybe blogger got the picture thing figured out. My last post took forever so I gave up... literally. I also think when do i have time with 4 children. There was stuff I would do before I had Ady that I haven't done now. I love that girl to pieces... My little Ady grace is literally my saving grace. Something about her sweet personality just calms me and She is one mama's girl!
Little Miss Lilly bug got Baptized in July! Can you believe another one of my kids now baptized. Lilly is the little spiritual one and keeps us in line! She is at dance alot and LOVES it! Her solo this year makes me cry when she does it. Her song is "I can only Imagine" (dance with Jesus) She is an AMAZING dancer at only 8! She has her roundoff Back handspring multiples and very close on her Arial. Wow she has really grown up from her picture on teh side and to this one!!! She is so pretty!
Bryson is doing really well in school! He loves to be at school and of course loves recess! We have been trying to get him caught up and at grade level and we keep making progress! He tries so Hard. He loves to vacuum and helps out. He loves to go to our neighbors and she tutors him after school! He also can't wait for Oakley to come home! He still has Mike the turtle and takes care of him everyday!
Little Dallyn is learning his ABC and writing them. He counts to 20 or higher. He loves preschool. He is actually my little Home body kid. He is so excited to be on our street to play wtih 2 little boys. We were down where the was no kids and now he has like 4 just houses away. He just turned 5. I can't believe that my little baby boy is 5!!! He has quite the imagination also and loves to just go into his room and play with his boat (playmoblies) or his cars. He can sit down there all afternoon playing cars!
We also just went to disneyland the week before halloween but my pictures are not on the computer yet. The kids also were in the Merrill Osmond Pinoeer Pageant! They can't wait to do that next year.

Updates

Not a lot has been going on and I am sure most of my friends know that with a newborn you don't get much done! We did have halloween, a birthday and a baby blessing. We have just been chilling alot at home and I am going crazy with not going to the gym. I really want to start to loose my last 15lbs from Adyson but I feel like theres no time between Dallyn, Adys crying and then trying to keep the house clean clothes cleaned.

Adyson is a champ and sleeps through the night.... BUT she just cries during the day so I have to hold her and at night its worse. I am thinking its acid reflux just like the other kids. We had to try zantac a medication for it before we can get Prevacid. Its just been a rough last month! I just tell myself that if the prevacid doesn't work I am totally done nursing and were going to formula!


Dallyn my little big baby as I like to call him turned 4! That just seems so crazy to me. He knows his numbers to 15 and talks in full sentences and just a chatter box! He is so different then the older 2 its just much fun with him. He learned how to ride his 2 wheeler bike this summer and loves to ride bikes with the big kids! He thinks he is a big kid! He sure keeps us on your toes and watching to see what the dare devil will do! WE sure do love this little manic lots!

Its Crazy to think that on the 10 of december that we have been married for 10 years.... Has 10 years really flown by! Maybe next year I will get my Hawaii Vacation... This year I got my Adyson.. Bryson then turns 9 end of January! Am i old enough to even have a 9 year old... I don't think so. We have a big month of holidays coming up and excited with Ady! We have our Anniversary, Daddys Birthday, Daddy's GRADUATION from college and then Christmas! I have been counting down each week that Daddy has left of school! I can't wait. He has now told me though He will go on for His Masters of Finance! He said it will be next fall. I said that is fine. Its been a long road for school and I can't wait for a BREAK!

Here's to hoping for a better month and a Happy baby that medicine or formula helps and all our fun activities this coming month!

Baby Adyson

I Guess I should update seeing its been almost a year! It has been a crazy summer being pregnant. It was one interesting pregnancy! THe older kids still had fun going to seven peaks and staying busy. We only had 3 weeks of summer before we started 3rd and 2nd grade! THe kids have adjusted well and we are on our first off track break. They have loved having daddy home to have him take them to the childrens museum and just playing with them!

As for Ady, I had to start doing NST ( non stress test) at around 30 weeks to measure her fluid. It would vary week by week usually stayed around 10-13 which 10 is OK anthing below 10 you are on restricted rest! I went in for my LAST nst tuesday the 27 and the first nurse measured my fluid at 6!!! I was HORRIFIED! 6 REALLY how did I go from 13 to 6 in a week! They monitored her heart beat and it was more of a steady flat line NOT NORMAL! I started to panic. Another nurse came in to measure fluid again and she got 8 just cause she moved just enough!

I was still worried, my mom paged my doctor and said BED REST, do not get up except to pee and I'll see you in the morning! That was around 3:30. Well lilly had dance at 4, Bryson tutor at 4:30 and to pick Lilly up from dance at 6 not to mention I had promised the kids an ice cream cone cause they got there flu shots! Needless to say my neighbor took lilly to dance but nothing else was done!

Daddy went to work and had school wednesday night. He told ADY in the morning "be a good girl and PLEASE wait till tomorrow"!!!! HAHA didn't happen. Went to the doctor and he looked on his ultrasound machine and said to me "LOOKS like were having a baby theres no fluid". I ran home and went straight back to the hospital since he wanted her heart rate monitored cause of the bad heartrate strip the day before. My mom stayed with me and Daddy stayed at work till 3! I had to be without food for 8 hours and I ate cheerios for breakfast... how did I know I was having a baby that day...

Little Ady made her arrival c-section at 4:13! I was laying there half in and out of it and then they said "she was 7 lbs 5 oz!!! Everyone thought she would be 6 lbs! I was just like WHAT are you serious! She was 20 inches long.

My doctor had said "you are done having kids"! He said he could cut my uterus with his finger nail.. which means I could have bleed to death or in a future pregnancy could bleed out or not get pregnant. But thats ok we are happy where we are at! We are lucky that I am here and she is here healthy!

The kids love her to peices and Little Lilly couldn't be more thrilled to have a sister! Little Dallyn LOVE to watch over here! And Bryson always wants to hold her!

Meet Mike!

Bryson had been wanting a reptile for quite some time now! I told him he could have a turtle so he got so excited... The only catch he had to pay for the turtle! So we set out to build a turtle box and we did! Pictures to come of that soon! All Summer he mowed are .32 lawn! He mowed my parents a couple times to earn the money for the turtle! So when he was ready I called pets Mart no one had a Russian tortoise! Then one of the girls said well we have a red footed. They are just colored different! She said He was on sale for 69.99 normally 100 bucks!. That day i found a coupon too for friends and family 15% off so that brought the turtles price to 63 BUCKS! (bryson bought a toy in vegas with the rest and paid tithing). So Mike came home!

Mike ended up getting sick partially are fault! He was too cold! He got pneumonia and ended back at the store and then on antibiotics. For 3 LONG weeks I took Bryson out (75 Blocks from the house) too see Mike! Mike came home for the second time. He started acting weird... Well I finally figured it out MIKE WAS COLD!!!!!!!!! I got the biggest heat lamp i could and Mike is so Crazy! He climbs his logs, he swims The kids love to watch him eat his lettuce tomatoes! He loves our cherry tomatoes from the garden! Mike is alot of fun and Bryson sure earned him and loves him so MUCH!

More pictures to come of mike! There just on my Iphone....

Family Pictures

While the kids were off track we had our family pictures done! It was alot of fun and she did a great job! While they were off track we did Vegas, the zoo, classic skating, Bryson did alot of of Sylvan, went to the gym alot, and went to Chucky Cheese to let them play! I swear we weren't home at all for the 3 weeks they were off! I would have to admit sending them back to school today I was sad and really felt outta place! This was one of the best off track breaks we have ever had!





Vegas and football

Bryson has waited all year to play Flag Football! I still can't believe I let him play seeing I swore my son wouldn't play but I caved last year let him play. Last year wasn't really football. Lets just say after playing this year my Hat goes off to the coach this year! He was learning the real plays and playing! He did so good! Last year I don't think I can count as a 1st year. Daddy and Bryson are trying BEG me to allow him to play tackle since he would be on the line seeing for 8 year old they weight cut off is 76 lbs... Bryson is 88! SO from what people tell me is he will be safer adn thats where I want him! BUt still TACKLE.... K they can beg a LITTLE LONGER....


Over UEA we decided to go go down to vegas where it was warmer and go swimming. Our friends had a time share so we got a pretty good deal! It was an awesome resort! Way at the other end of the strip! We did go down to to the strip 1 day out of the 4! We saw the shark reef, the dolphins, pink flamingos, the fountians, M and M store( they thought that was christmas)! We went to the outlets got a couple good deals. Ended up going to a ROSS on the strip and Daddy got a pair of Doc Martin boots for 24 bucks! THey had lots of fun and they ask if we can go back to vegas. The only Rule is.... You do the stuff on the strip before 1 PM!

School time

Well its is not official that we have a 1st and 2nd grader. They have grown oh so fast and we are just trying to hang on to our little baby Dallyn (which isn't a baby so much but we still think so). Dallyn is so sad to have his brother and sister gone for the day. We hope we can survive!
Some things that we did this summer:

Went to the gym alot to go swimming and to workout. The kids love their day care and they also take the older 2 rock climbing while mom and dad can work out!
* We went to cowabunga alot also. Dallyn still hates the slides but the older 2 love them so we usually let the older 2 loose and whoever goes is with the baby!

*Weekly swimming up to Mommy's old young woman's leader pool. Kids love it there cause she has a diving board!
*Camping up at Joe's reservoir that was the coolest lake up by price. About the same size as Deer creek but there were only 4 boats on the lake. Its was awesome! Kids had lots of fun riding bikes all around

* The zoo I think at least 5 times. Lilly favorite animal is still Zuri! If she could Zuri would be living at our house!

*Ttour of the coppermine. I have always wanted to take the kids there and Now I finally did!

*Incredible pizza! I recommend not going there and wasting your money!
*The famous Lagoon! Kids loved it but we would personally save our money and go to Disneyland ANYDAY! Mom had a couple issues there wtih some people! Mom actually thought there was going to be a fight between her and a big bubba about Lilly bug! Needless to say he was trying to get a worker to unlock a ride and stick another stranger kid with Lilly just so he could go on the ride! That didn't FLY with mom and she was about to fight him LOL!

* Most important Lilly turned 6! So we had a birthday party for her went to cowabunga and to her favorite restaurant IHOP! Then had her cousin over to play!

I think that is all that happened But I swear we were gone like everyday. Mom is sure ready for some normalcy but then again what is that.

Now we have sylvan learning, swimming lessons, the start of dance (jazz, tap and ballet) and Flag football, along with speech! I don't think normalcy is in our calender anytime soon until it probably yes the horrible dreaded word SNOW comes!

I will try to add pictures of camping and everythign else I don't know where they are. I think they are o the other computer!

May

Lilly has had another dance recital. She has grown so much this year we are so proud of her. She did so good on her dances she took Tap and ballet. This coming year is Tap, ballet and jazz. She will have so much fun! Lilly is our little reader and is reading at almost a 2nd grade level. I wish I could slow her down cause she is about to pass bryson :o/ She is getting so excited that she is going to turn 6!
I have asked lilly is she wanted to do cheerleading this fall..... her response... " I want to play football like bryson! Oh she can wish I will let her play with big brother!

Tap picture

Brothers supporting there sister

Bryson also played flag football for the 1st year. Mom finally gave in and let him play. But the rule is flag only! Daddy and Bryson hope sometime Mommy will cave and let him tackle. But he will play flag in the fall and he is so excited! He has done so good in school always now 15/10 and his bonus words I tell ya are not easy. This week on is apostrophe!

Bryson passing the pass!


Dally oh Dallyn is the terror that we so desperately love! He has now started saying 2 word sentences. I don't know what it is but why are our kids delayed on speech. He is coming along good though. I love when he says "Habba day" or "one minute" its just so cute! He is also now LOVES to cry for mommy. Mommy leavin him at daycare at the gym, nursery or anywhere is a COMPLETE melt down. He will now just go to relief society! I guess I can't wait now till he is in sun beams so he will know he is in primary wih the other two!

RUN DUCK RUN AWAY from dallyn!



All and all I have been bad about blogging which is bad. I wish I could do it weekly since this is basically like our scrapbook. Right now we are just working in the yard and a little relandscaping from what the previous owners did. We ripped out 10 rose bushes and there are still 5 in my yard. I am sorry for all you rose bush lovers but I hate getting poked! We are taking out the bark in the playground and putting in the rubber bark. I would never recommend plain bark ever in a swing set. Its gets nasty and bugs and ehh I honestly can't believe I let my children play in it. I can't wait till its all done!

I have asked lilly is she wanted to do cheerleading this fall..... her response... " I want to play football like bryson!

Just ready for school to be out! 3 weeks left. UGGGG!

What Have we been up too......Bryson had his 1st grade program for grandparents day, of course I started crying some, he was just so cute and we have come SO FAR!



Also, sleddding in April, Mom ran the Jordan School District 5K and also the Salt Lake 5K. But for the most fun that we have done was A little trip to DISNEYLAND! The kids had a BLAST! They loved Thunder Mountain railroad and almost ever ride. Bryson even Loved California screamer! Yes my 7 year old went on that, there was no way that you could get me on that ride! More pictures to come! We were very lucky to have our niece join us! It was alot of fun and the kids are already asking to go back... We have only been home 2 days!!!!!!! I think mommy and Daddy are in for it till we go back! I hope that Lagoon will do for a year or two!


Easter

We had a wonderful Easter spending it with our familys and watching general conference! I believe all my Easter pictures are on my other camera. If i remember I will post pictures!

Family Night

One of the stores around here had Twister on sale and then there was a coupon. I think ended up picking it up for $3. For family night we played it one night. The kids loved it!


Mischievous Dallyn

As I was running one day this is what where I found Dallyn after I was done! This is why I have joined a gym! It was all shampoo He was just washing himself... To bad it wasn't tear fear though!
