Baby Noah

Sorry these are so late. This whole breastfeeding thing is hard, if any of you have any suggestions let me know. Me and Andy both fight over who gets to hold him. He is such a good baby so far. But he is only 12 days old. But here he is...... Noah was born December 19th at 5:20am weighing in at 7lbs 5oz and 20 inches tall. ...Dr. Kirkman ended up starting me on thursday at 11am. At 3am on friday I was only dialated to a 4 then the nurse came in to check on me at 4:45 and she said I was a 10 and ready to push so they called Dr Kirkman. I pushed once with the nurse and twice with the doc and Noah was here. I lucked out!!! Andy did really well with it all. He is so cute with Noah. I just am so grateful for Andy!!! He has helped so much I still have not done any laundry or cleaned the house or made dinner. He is AWESOME and I love him so much!!

Going Private

We decided we are going to go private so all of you who want to look at our blog, leave your email address and I will add you.

Just Some Baby Stuff/ 6 Weeks to go!!

We are trying to get the baby's room finished right now. We are going to paint and we are putting some new carpet in. So I thought I would decorate a little. I went to Hobby Lobby and bought letters then used modge podge to glue the scrapbook paper on. It was really easy. (Thanks Camie for the idea)

My sweet mother made these burp clothes for us. She has an awesome sewing machine and she loves to sew. I bought just clothe diapers and then picked ribbon that I wanted to go on them. I actually made two of them and it took me like two days. She had ten of them them out in a night. My mother is a saint. I love her so much and am so grateful for all she does for me and Andy. Andy thought we were crazy for making these. But he just says that our baby will barf in style. :) haha If our baby is anything like his side of the family, then he will barf all the time and Andy will be so grateful for the burp clothes. I pray for the clark genes to pull through on this one. WE ONLY HAVE 6 WEEKS TO GO!!! I CAN'T WAIT!! We are both getting so excited.

I have been tagged! Quirks!

Here are the rules:1. List 6 quirks about yourself. Tag 6 more people. Tell who tagged you!I have been tagged to list my quirks...here we go....

1. I have to make my bed everyday. It is a must, I feel so much better when I do because it makes our room look clean even if there is a shirt or two out. Andy would rather get in an unmade bed but, he is not home during the day so I make it.

2. I love lotion. I think I am bath and body works biggest customer. But lately I have been using baby lotion. I love the smell of it. Everytime after I get out of the shower I have to lather up. Andy thinks its weird that I put it on the bottom of my feet, But that is the worst....dry feet!!

3. I HATE HATE clutter. Andy keeps everything!! So while he is at work I clean and chuck things. He has receipts from Lowes from clear back in February when we remodled our kitchen. It makes me so mad. I like everything to have its own place.

4. I have this calendar and yes everyday I mark the day off. I don't know how I got into the habit of this. But it has to be a black marker and it all has to be crossed off the same direction. I know I am a freak.

5. I have to be on time. If I am late then I feel like I missed something. Especially if I am late to work I feel so guilty and I can never get in a routine. There is just something about being on time that gives me ease. I hate others to have to wait for me.

6. This is probably the best one. I love to be with Andy. We really do everything together. I hate to work nights because I can't be with him. I am sure this will all change after the baby and I won't get to be with him as much but...I ride in the semi with him sometimes if he ever has to make a delivery, take him lunch everyday, and I work on projects with him. He is pretty funny too about this. Even if it is something I can't do he will always say come with me and just talk to me and keep me company. Andy really is my soulmate..hahaha The joke in my family when I was in highschool was that I could not even go to the mailbox at the bottom of the street alone. (I really could, I just love family) So when I married Andy it was the best day of my life!! :)


Now I tag....Natalie Clark,Mandi, Shelley, Amber, Jamie, and Trisha

My ONE and ONLY pregnant photo

I really did not want to post a picture of me while I was pregnant. But my mom talked me into it. She told me to be grateful I was pregnant. I am grateful I just feel enormous is all!! I feel like I have no control of my body. I have not let anyone take any pictures of me since I got pregnant so this is a huge step for me!! HAHA

Puppies-6 weeks

Andy and I got the puppies out tonight to play with and they were going crazy. They are so cute and I am so sad they are going to be gone soon. Of course we had like 12 neighbor kids come on over when we put them in the front yard. I think I will be glad just to have the puppies gone so I don't have a million kids at my house all day long. ;) We have a home for one we just need two more. So anyone who needs a cute little puppy let us know. PLEASE!! lol

Update on the puppies-4 weeks

Here is an update on the puppies. They are so cute and are getting so much more personality. It is going to be sad to have to sell them. :( But I don't want 5 dogs with a baby on the way. If anyone wants to see them feel free to come on over!!

Now I am freaked out!!!

What do you think about my little new baby Noah?
MakeMeBabies.com - What will your baby look like?



I was just surfin the internet and came across this dang funny thing. Now I am really scared to have this baby. If it is as ugly as the one they made up. It was kind of funny though. I got a good laugh. I probably woke my patient up. HAHAHA

Congrats Terry!!!

Terry my father in law got put in a bishopric up at the university. We are so proud of him. He is such a good guy and would do anything for anyone. I took lunch down to Andy on monday and Terry was there and I asked him how "Ward Stare" was and I got the answer back " it is really fun I really enjoyed it." So I put my foot in my mouth......jk He will be so good for them. Terry is a great example to me and Andy and I hope to be more like him. I think Andy is probably sad not happy for him. The joke in the family is whenever Andy calls up to his house and if Terry does not answer he will say..."Where's Dad?" He loves his dad and loves to work with him on EVERYTHING!! I am so grateful that Terry has taught Andy so much. Congrats Terry and we love you!!


My cute father in law!

My cute husband that just loves his dad. I could not find a pic of them together, so you got the picture of him going to see his dad put in the bishopric. ;)

Ava and Cannon

Ava and Cannon are only a day apart so Cami and Natalie had a birthday party together for them. They just turned 1. Ava(august 2) Cannon(August 3) I know I am really bad at posting and really late on this but they are both so cute and I had to put pictures up of them. Ava had a tinkerbell cake and Cannon had a train cake.

The Puppies

Hemi had her puppies on August 11th. We got home from finding out what we were going to have and Andy heard a funny noise and went back to check on the dogs and Hemi was cleaning up her puppies. She has done so good. We have not had to help her at all. She is a good little mom. ;) It will be sad when we have to sell them. They just opened their eyes last monday. I will take more pictures of them with their eyes open and post them.

Our Baby Boy!!!

Today was our 20 week appointment and our ultrasound to determine what the sex was. We were both so excited. Everything looked really good so far. The baby looked really healthy even though he looks like an alien right now. :) Oh and to top it all off....We came home today and our dog had her puppies. What a good day it was. :)









He kept putting his hands in front of his face so we could not see straight on. Little stinker is already acting like Andy! :)






He is crossing his little legs.



He is yawning. It was so cute. Andy was in heaven





This is his little private. He is going to hate me when I am older.




He loves to cross his legs.

Babysitting

Well... Mike and Natalie wanted to go to the sand dunes for the weekend. Mike asked me to watch all three kids for them so they could go just the two of them. Of course I would not say no. I just love these kids. I was so excited for them to come. They came on thursday morning and I took them to my parents friday morning. So I had them for 24 hours on my own...well with Andy. So I decided to take them swimming. Mandi my sister in law's aunt and uncle is Ed and Lisa fisher, they have a swimming pool and Mandi invited us up there to swim. The boys had a blast and Ava fell alseep on the way there. They were so worn out when we got home they two boys crashed and I just had some fun with Ava. She is so cute. (She did not cry once while I had her. I really hope I have a baby as good as her!!) We had some dinner and I bathed all three kids by myself while Andy was working in the yard. After I bathed Ava I told Andy to come in and hold her while I finished with the boys. Ava lunged right to Andy, she loves Andy its no fair. But he just eats it up. He told me "she is the cutest girl by far..except for if we have a girl!" :) The next morning I fed them breakfast and got them packed up to go to my parents. It was so much fun but I was exhausted. I don't know how people do it. I better get used to it quick!!!!

Hyde Park Celebration

Every year Hyde Park has a celebration with fireworks and games. Andy and I live right by the church in Hyde Park so we thought we would have our families over and we could watch the fireworks from our front lawn and have some dinner. Both sides of our families came. Mike and Natalie could not make it, we sure missed them. Here are some pics.
