Sick Day :(

It all started tuesday morning me and Noah were walking in the house and a Bee or something ( who knows what it was) was stuck between Noah's shirt and his skin. So of course he got stung and it was right on his neck. I was MAYBE freaking out a little. So I put a cold rag on his neck and he was not liking that. So I gave him some benedryl. He was so sleepy the rest of the day. I left for work and Andy had Noah for the night. He fell asleep as I was leaving to work (7:30 PM) and woke up at midnight and was awake until 2. This is so out of character for him. Andy thought it was just because he had bendryl and his sleep schedule was messed up. Well I got home wednesday morning at 7. Of course the little stink was awake.. :) so I got Noah a bottle Andy fed him and I walked out of the room. When I came back to our room Noah had barfed EVERYWHERE!!!! THe whole 7 ounces he ate was on OUR BED!!! I of course was already thinking he is sick. Andy said I think he just coughed and because he ate it so quick it just came back up..(Noah has done this before just not the whole bottle!) So we stripped our whole bed I changed Noah and we put him in bed with us. He was wired the kid was climbing all over us. He was climbing on me then put his head right by mine and I was talking to him and then it happened....he yacked all over me! Andy was laughing hysterically I was laughing and wanting to cry because the poor kid was throwing up. So Andy got Noah in the bath and I showered. We then decided that it was a good idea for Andy to stay home from work so I could sleep because I had just worked a 12 hour shift. So Andy played Mr. Mom :) Noah threw up many more times...we did a total of 7 loads of laundry. By 2PM Noah was keeping down pedialyte. so we gave him some bananas a few hours later with more pedialyte. Wow what a day, that was the first time he has ever been sick and I am sure it wont be the last. Luckily his 9 month appointment was the next day. Dr. Brown is awesome and always makes me feel at ease that everything will be okay. Noah is tons better and back to his BUSY HAPPY self!

At his 9 month appointment he was 19 lbs. 7 ounces. and 29 1/4 inches....he is a tall skinny little thing! I just love this little boy so much! Andy said the other day that he was ready to have another one. ........ dont worry I am not ready yet! :) I love the little boy but I want some time with him first. I am so lucky to have the family I do!

P.S. Andy.... I freakin love your guts! You are so good to me! Thanks for being such an awesome Dad and being so involved with our little man! I could not be happier!

He Dances!!!

The past couple of days Noah has been dancing to music when he hears it. It is so stinkin cute!

Also Andy and I were able to have a date night on saturday. Andy planned it all and even asked my cute little sister to watch Noah for us. It was such a fun night and I am so grateful for family!! I worked friday night so I slept until 12:00 then got up and took Noah to get a hair cut, then I got myself a much need pamper from Jolayne my BFF! Thanks Jolayne I love you girl! It was such a good day! Thanks guys!! :)

What we have been up to........

Here we go this is going to be a MEGA post because I have been such a slacker! I really hope I can be better about updating our blog. :) First of all I took the blog off private so that my mom and my mother-in-law can see the pictures without too much hastle.

Well I had my 24th birthday on June 20. It was a great day. Andy totally suprised me with a book I had been wanting and a jogging stroller. He took my sister to help him find the right stroller and she said "We went to EVERY store in Cache Valley so we could find the PERFECT stroller for you." He is so cute! Then he took me to The Proposal and out for ice cream. It was so much fun to go out on a date with him. It seems like we have not been to a movie for so long. It was an awesome day! Thanks Andy I love your guts!!!

Our Next Event was the 24th of July celebration that they have every year in Hyde Park. We live right by the church so we get front row seats to the fireworks. We invited friends and family to come for dinner and fireworks. Andy's brother and his wife started the tradition when they lived a couple houses up from us. They moved so now we get to continue with the tradition. We have so much fun just hanging out and enjoying friends and family. Here are a few pictures from the night. We had a lot of friends and family there that I did not get pictures of because I was slacking once again.....suprise I know. ;)

My mom had a swim party for the grandkids on the 24th also. Here are a few pictures of all the cousins playing together. Thanks grandma for all you do for the kids!!














One night after Andy got off work we decided to go fishing. It was so much fun. Noah even was entertained for a little bit. :) We did not catch anything unfortunetly.. :(

Our next adventure we went to Oregon for a family trip. It was a blast. We rented a beach house and stayed for a week. It was so relaxing and fun. We went to the aqaurium, to the tillamook cheeseplant, air museum, and to the beach many times to look for sand dollars, star fish, muscles. It was so much fun and I really hope that we can go back next year too.

Here are just a few pics I got of Noah. He is growing up so fast! He is the best little boy every. We have a nightly routine were Andy gives him his bath and dresses him and gives him his bottle then goes to bed. Well the other night I wanted to do all of that so I did and by the time I got to rocking him to sleep he wanted to just play....What the crap?!? Then he started to cry so Andy comes in to Noah's room and takes him and it was like someone flipped a switch to the cute little stink! He went right to sleep. Not one little peep out of him! I was so mad! But at the same time I am so grateful that Andy helps me and does all he does! He is such a great dad! I love it!! Everyday I am so grateful that I married Andy! I truly am a spoiled girl being married to him. Thanks Andy for all you do for our little family!

Stace gave him an oreo and this is what happened

He is obsessed with flip flops for some reason

(BTW that is Oreo on his face not dirt. ;) )

He loves oatmeal in the morning and I let him feed himself the last bit. haha

Me and my mom were having lunch at my house and he got one of those puff crackers

stuck perfectly on his face. We thought it was so cute! haha

Well that is it so far.... oh and we just put our house up for sell this last week. We are selling so we can get a bigger home that we hope to stay in for the next 20-30 years. So if any of you know anyone looking for a house send them our way. We put it for sell by owner then if we dont sell in 3 months we will list it with an agent. I will try and be better about posting things. :)

Mom's Retirement after 36+ years!

My mom retired on June 30th after 36+ years of working at Logan Regional Hospital, and she looked absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! I am so excited to have my mom at home all the time now. We can go on trips and do fun things during the day. I always had a working mom and I am glad that she can finally be home. I feel like she has gave a lot hard work and service to LRH! I am so proud of her, how cool to walk away from a job knowing that you gave your all to something for so long!!! I know that her and my dad will find many things to do. She already has 2 trips planned for this summer, and I think more are being planned. ;) But she totally deserves all of it. I am so grateful of the example she has been to me. I hope to be half as good as her someday. So many people have told me they are so sad she is retiring and I am sad I wont see her at work anymore but......I get to see her a lot more at home. It was so weird on Wednesday to have her hang out with us during the day. We went to the new wal-mart and to lunch. I know we need to get better plans but I am so glad that I can just have her whenever I want now. Sorry mom you might get sick of me and Noah but we are SO SO happy for you, and what an accomplishment you have made! LRH had an open house for her on Monday and I took some pictures of it. We love you mom and I can't wait for you to be able to do whatever you want whenever you want. I was a little nervous when my mom was going to quit because I will miss her. But my sweet mother-in-law got my mom's job so how cool is that? My mother in law worked hard and got her masters so now she will me in my moms old office. How crazy is that??? I love it though. I am glad that my mom and mother in law are good friends. I am so proud of both of them! Mom I freaking love your guts and can't wait for a fun summer and maybe some overnight trips to park city?????

The Tree they gave her is so pretty

Tired Boy

Wednesday night when Andy got home from work we sat down in the front room to just talk. We put Noah in his bouncer to play while we talked. He kept looking back and forth at me and Andy as we talked. It was really cute. Then all the sudden he just looked Andy straight in the face and did not even crack a smile. Andy said to him " Are you mad at me bud?" He just kept looking at Andy then I tried to talk to him. I said " Are you going to smile? Do you want to get out of your bouncer?" Then right after that he just laid his head down and went to sleep. Not a peep came out of him. Then Andy looked at me like what the crap just happened???? So we both jumped to make sure he was breathing. It seriously looked like he passed out. :( I guess he was to tired to even cry. Well, he was breathing apparently just really tired. We took him out and of course fought who got to snuggle him. Andy won...... :( He seriously is such a good little boy and maybe loves that bouncer a little too much!! The other day I found myself wanting to wake Noah up from his nap to play with him. I can't believe he is 6 months old already. We are so lucky to have him in our lives!!
