Happy Fourth of July!

Karleigh Update

Karleigh had surgery yesterday up at Primary's. She went in for Ear Tubes and a nasal scope to possibly remove her adnoide. Well she had fluid in both ears so they had to drain them then insert the tubes. Then they did the scope and found that her adnoide was large enough to remove. He said on a scale 1-4 it was a 31/2to 4 So he removed that. I didn't realize I guess that the adnoide surgery was a little more intense. She did great. Yet she struggled with her oxygen coming out of anesthesia. So she had to be on supplemental oxygen for a couple of hours after. She is doing great now. Just in pain. Though happy most of the time. She is such a trooper. what a way to start a life eh! Preston and Colton both had tubes put in so I was not worried about that but the adnoides was a little more intrusive. Any how. We are doing good.

She is really starting to "talk" She waves bu bye and says it too. She babbles alot and I swear I hear words in between the babble. If I repeat them to her sometimes she looks at me and smiles and puts her head down in a shy manner. So I really think she says things. She loves her brothers and Colton is so quick to play with her and help her when she is crying.

Another one bites the dust!

For those of you that don't know Chad runs a ATV buisness in the summer. He does Guided as well as UnGuided tours. He has had quite the accidents this year. Here is one of the machines after it went off the cliff.

He has had some really serious injuries requiring life flight to come a few times along with search and rescue the other times. It is a rough job. But Chad enjoys it. His mom really wants him to go to school to be and EMT. He really knows how to keep his cool and focus on the injured. He is such a loving and caring person.

He really enjoys his job right now. But hates the commute to Midway everyday and the time away from his family.

She is growing up!

So the other day I went in to check on Karleigh after her nap. She was trying to pull herself up. she was on her knees standing on one foot and just couldn't figure out how to stand on her other one. So I helped her. Then I had to get a picture. I just laugh because she can't even crawl yet. But she is so determined to stand up.

Monday we packed up the trailer and the kids and Chad pulled us up to Camperworld in Coalville. We had a blast. The kids and I spent our day's throwing rocks in the river, swimming,swimming, and more swimming. Our Trailer faced the park so the boys would go play and I could watch them from the trailer. Chad took them fishing and they had a lot of fun, that was until preston got a hook stuck in his thumb. He was done at that point. I tried the next day to take him and we got to the pond we casted twice and he said " mom fishing is boring let's go" . But mom was not ready I tried to get him to stay but he just waved goodbye and ran off. I caught up with him and as we were walking back I had to ask again "do you want to just fish in this river really quick. He said Nooooo! So that was the end. I havn't been fishing since I was 8 months preg. with Preston so I really wanted to fish the river. Oh well next time I guess.

Karleigh loved it. She absolutley loves the pool. She would just start laughing and kicking her legs when she saw me coming toward her with her swimsuit. It was so adorable. She even went right to sleep and slept all night. I was worried being in the trailer and all, but she did great.

Preston kept saying I want to stay here for 580 days. I just kept telling him We'll see. They were not ready to leave but we had to get home. So we are planning to return in a couple of weeks.

Entering the World of Vampires

So I have now entered the world of Vampires. If you know me I love to read. But I am not into the whole Vampire, wherewolf, Harry Potter stuff. I havn't ever read Harry Potter. But everyone has talked about these books and my Sisterinlaw told me I should read it. The other day I though why not. So I started it. I thought it was really stupid until I got halfway into it. Unfortunatly I am hooked. These books are awsome I never knew Vampires were so sexy! Anyway. I am on the second one. I find myself obsessed. How stupid is that. But that is not to hard to do for me.

Colton loves eating ice cream. It is kind of him and mommy's thing. At night we eat Choc. Ice cream and watch a show. Usually Mickey Mouse clubhouse. But tonight it was Cars the movie. He loves Lightning Mcqueen.
