I took Colton to see the General Surgeon at Primarys yesterday and we decided to have surgery on his belly button on Monday. He has a herniated bellybutton. They say it is an easy fix quick and he will be up and going the same day. He is scared but he will do awesome.

So next Wed. is Chad and I's 10 year Anniversary. I am totally stressing because I have nothing to get or do for him. He never wants anything and I am sick of always getting him things that he needs. So I am wracking my brain trying to think of something neat. With no prevail. I know he will be happy with nothing but I really want to surprise him with something really neat. If anyone has suggestions please message me. I could use all the help. I love him so much and he deserves a great surprise.

Elijah Michael Carter

Tiffany is my little sister and she and Michael had their beautiful Baby Boy on Wed. She labored for 17 hours but did awesome. I went to the hospital at 5 pm and stayed until 1:30 am in the morning but got tired so I left. Good thing because she didn't deliver until 10:05am.

He is sooo cute!

I really am baby hungry now. I was before But holding him I really wish it was me there. So we have decided to keep trying for the last one....

Bumble and Baseball

Opening season for Farmington Baseball Bumble came to visit. It was so fun to see the kids. Colton is playing T-ball for the first time this year and is loving it. He was nervous the first time and wouldn't play but the next game I took him early and we went over what he was going to do and he did great!!!!! Yestereday was his 3rd game and he did awesome. He LOVES the attention. Preston wishes he played this year but says next year he wants to.

Surprisingly dissappointed....

So i thought I may have been pregnant with # 4 and was thinking what are we going to do now. Still living in a basement and no way to move. just applied for a new job that I have not heard anything back. So I took a test and negative.

I almost cried. I don't know why it's really not the best time but I was surprised how much I was hopeful when all things point to this is crazy!!!! Anyway just needed to get this out of my head. I guess even with #4 you still get excited. :(

Update

I had my first interview since 2001 today. I am training to become a Pet Groomer. I would have never considered a job in this field but with a husband as a Nutro Pet Rep and working in all Petsmarts and Petco's in utah and S.Idaho he has talked me into learning a new trade. I am a little nervous.
I really struggle with the fact of having to go to work. I always wanted to grow up and be a mom. I said I would never work. I know this will only be temporary. for us to get out of debt and able to move into our own home. Once I get licensed and trained on grooming Chad wants to build a groom shop for me to work from home. I figure it is a new adventure and I may really enjoy it. We will see.
It is strange to think I am doing this. I really would have never seen this one coming.

The kids are growing up so fast and though it is really hard for me to be home and feel isolated at times I wouldn't have had it any other way. I love my family so much.

Here is to new experiences, new uncharted roads to take and to the future! ;)

Fun with slime....

Even with a bandaid on his nose he is cute!

If you can see in the first picture K is watching herself sing in the mirror. She is singing Popcorn Popping on the Apricot tree.
