what the hell is going on in here?>

hello all my little blogger friends, how goes it? did my title catch your attention? it comes with a story...... our little addi has become a character. she's so funny and says the weirdest most random things for example.... michael was in our bedroom getting jaiden ready for a bath, addi goes in there and i heard her yell " what the hell is going on in here!" we couldn't help but laugh. now we do occasionally drop some swear bombs but i never have ran into another room and yelled anything like that. lol what a silly girl. she's so big! we've almost got her daytime potty trained ( i don't even know where to start with the night time stuff) she wears her little panties with tinkerbell on them and if she goes all day with no accidents she gets a new pair to wear the next day. i know you are all probably thinking wow thats alot of panties but i just wash the and put them back in the package. come on she's 2 she'll never know!!!


baby jaiden is doing so well she went to the doctor in the begining pf december . weighing in at 12 pounds no huge medication adjustments and we get about a month and a half before the next doctors appointment the are stretching out slowly.

michael and i are good, i just had a birthday big 23 . michael got me a massage and it was wnderful. we also went to dinner together. which doesnt happen often its nice to spend time togther. life is so busy we are lucky we still know eachother lol .


hope your all doing well, and getting the christmas spirit. i love you all and hope you have a wonderful holiday season

a moment of thanks...

I have read a lot of things lately about being thankful and i have also noticed i don't express gratitude as much as i should. so i decided to blog about things i am thankful for.

first and foremost i am thankful for modern medicine. i always used to say how grateful i was that Michael and i had no real health problems , and then i was complaining about Addi and her skin problems. jaiden has taught me alot. her wonderful doctors have taught me alot. they know so much and they are so caring. they knew what jaidens condition was before the health department and had already started treatment before the health department alerted us of her condition. i am so thankful for all the doctors we have and for all of their knowledge.

next i am thankful for my savior. i am thankful for my faith. without this faith the last few months would have been really hard. but knowing that heavenly father has a plan gives me the strength to make it through the hard days.


i am thankful for Addison and her wonderful spirit.

i am thankful to have a job and to work with mostly wonderful people.

most of all i am thankful for my amazing husband, ( i am saying this because it is true, he wont ever read this so i can say what i want and deny it later) he is my best friend and understands me in every way i am so grateful to share my life with him . he makes it really fun. i am thankful for our late night talks and I'm thankful for his hugs when life is overwhelming and i start to fall apart. he will provide for our family in any way he can until the day he dies and i know he loves me with every ounce of his being.

I'm thankful for this time of year to remind me to be grateful . i love all of you and i am thankful you all write blogs so i can stalk your crazy lives :)

2 month check up and h1n1.....

Today was jaidens 2 month check up heres the stats

height: 21 3/4 inches long
weight : 11 lbs 2 oz
head : 37.5?v
she gained a whole pund in 9 days!!! im so glad she is growing healthy and strong but i didnt know she was going to grow so much!!
While we were at the doctor he reccomended we get the h1n1 for addi , since jaiden has a disorder we all need to get it. so mike said " addi do you want to get a shot? " addi shouts "yeah! i dooo! " she was so excited to get it. and then the needle came out and stabbed her in the leg and she screamed bloody murder man was she surprised at what it turned out to be!!!

all seems to be welpil so far i hate vaccines and i really dont like new ones that i don't know much about. michael and i are still debating whether we want to get it or not.
i promise i will get some pics up of jaiden i just need to remember to bring my camera !!

baby jaidens getting strong!!

jaiden is now 7 weeks old, its been a long 7 weeks. im now back to work . i really like my job, my boss is great at working with schedules. i wish i didnt have to work full time but you do what you have too. life is extra busy, we take jaiden to the doctor about once a week either the doctor or to run tests, poor baby. i think that between the 3 doctors they have just about everything figured out and things should slow down a little bit. she's doing well on her meds, and growing strong this week she was already 10 pounds so she made up for her slow start!! we saw a urologist today and he is the one who will be doing her surgery. he said she wont need t have it until 9-18 monthes, the surgery will take 3 to 4 hours and she will only need to stay i nthe hospital overnight. i guess the damage is not as severe as everyone thought which makes me feel alot better. there is one more test that will just see exactly how everything is set up from the inside out. she sure is beautiful. she's really strong likes to hold her up and is so smiley.

addi is growing like crazy , she has a nce big vocabulary . she is a little diva. for halloween she was a witch, she had to wear make up and i say had because there was no way i was going to get out of the house with out putting it on her. she was good she said thank you and would only take one candy. she had fun.

thats all for now we'll see what comes up in the next few weeks.

two weeks old

our little jaiden is now 2 amd a half weeks old, she is so sweet and so beautiful. she is now eating well since her medication is in her system . she is still pretty little only made it up to 6 pounds 8 ounces by 2 weeks but she should start porkin out soon. life with 2 kids has been a little difficult , michael went back to work the day after we got home , i think that was the hadest part. all 3 of us girls thrown together trying to figure everything out. addi is a good big sister, she panics everytime the baby cries and she has too physically look at all of jaidens poopy diapers. i still cant believe we have two kids . everyone has been so great during this little rough patch, we appreciate all the prayers and the wonderful doctors calling and checking on us , and all the family offering help in any way. we are doing great !! i totally will firgure out how to get some pictures up so you guys can see her. michael will have to help me since im not so computer smart .

its a boy.......... but wait.

monday septmeber 14 i went into labor i was at work and started having contractions, they were 15 minutes apart no big deal, i had been doing this on and off all weekend and was convinced i wasnt going into labor by myself. then on the way home they made their way down to 10 minutes then at home we were down to 7 and a few hours later decided we better make our way to the hospital. the contractions were now about 4 minutes apart and we had to drop addi off at the sitter and then make our way to the hospital. we got to the hospital at about 2 and they hooked me up to the monitors and i was contracting ever 3 minutes. i was glad that the timing was right, but i wasnt dialating past a 3 so they monitored for 4 hours , gave me a shot of morphine and sent me home. the morphine was horrible, it just made me super sleepy but owas still having contrations i reasted for while and then decided to go back to the hospital at about 11 that night, another shot of morphine and sent me home. this time i was determined to get this baby out. i was in alot of pain, i walked around, until my legs were shaking too bad and a t like 5 :30 i finally woke mike up to take me back, i was crying alot and i was going to loose my mind if they sent me home again , but they didnt i was dialated to a 5 , they gave me my epidural at 630 and i just kept dialating, my doctor got there at like a quater to 8 and broke my water and at 8:37 our baby was born , that part was way easy, 40 seconds of pushing and out came baby.
now some of you may have heard this already, they told us our baby was not a girl but a boy. we of course thought we were having a girl so we were shocked, 7 pounds 1 ounce 20.5 inches long. that evening our doc came in to check the baby, he came in and told me he wasnt sure if the baby was a boy or a girl ( very hard to hear) they have to do a bunch of chromosome tests and an ultrasound to see what might be going on . three days later we founf out she is not a boy but indeed a girl. it was heart breaking to have to call your child baby, and try to explain to everyone that your daughter has a birth defect . jaiden rae is what we named her, jaiden has a very rare ( 1 in 8000) disorder. its called congential adrenal hyperplasia. her adrenal glands dont work at all, your adrenal glands hel control your salt and the level of cortisol in your body, if it cant do this it causes androgens to be dispensed into the body . 10 percent of androgens are ubsorbed as testosterone, fine for a male but for a female who is over producing this horomone it causes an in balance her body. which caused her genitalia to be masculanized. she does have a uerus and a vagina its just over grown. she is one medication which she will take for life and she will evnetually have surgery to fix her outer uterine parts. she can go to the bathroom fine and is so much better now that she is on her medication. both michael and i have to be carriers of this gene, we have a 1 in 4 chance of having a baby with this disorder so future children ( if there are any ) will need to be planned carfully. she is healthy and beautiful. just a little information so people can understand her disorder. she wil be perfectly fertal when she is older .
thanks to everyone who is praying for her and everyone who has taken the time to understand her disorder we appreciate all this and we know heavenly father must have great plans for her and fr us, there is a lesson and a blessing here. love you all.

my baby is 2 year old now!!

So now addi is 2 and had a very eventful weekend . friday was her actual birthday. we had to take the subaru in for his warranty check up and then we took addi to training table for cheese fries, she loves cheese fries. that night we went to my parents house for a little party , we had a bbq and my grandma made pot stickers, addi loved them she ate a ton of them !!!! then she got some cool presents, she got one of those fisher price cars a hand me down from my aunt ( which is great because they can be really expensive) some cookig toys , lots of play dough, and a bunch of cleaning stuff ( she loves to clean) . didnt matter that she got all that though we couldn't get her out of the car!!! she did pack up all the other stuff and put it in the back of the car after she went "shopping " for it all. is ended up being a long night and she was beat when we got home.

then on saturday we were going to grandma condie's for some swimming and pizza. we got up and got ready and went to our local walmart to get all the stuff for the party, i got stuck behind some lady who had to price match everything and i mean everything, it was horrible. in the end i dont know that she saved much money, so finally after a long wait we were off to grandma condie's . michael was able to have an early day and meet us there which was great because i am too pregnant to do it all by myself. addi had so much fun i nthe pool she chased a fooball around the pool with her water wings on, she really didnt even need much help it as so cute!! then we had pizza and ice cream and cake, it was alot of fun . and another late night, so sunday michael and addi slept until 10 lazy bums. i got up at 7 because i had to pee. sleeping in doesn't seem like it will ever happen but thats ok i can get more done when they are sleeping.
this is a really long blog , oh well, im really kinda sad addi is 2 now, she acts so grown up!!! alot of it is probably horomones, eventually i will give birth and stop crying so much .
on that note doc appointment tomorrow , we start the down town check. i'll let you know how it goes ......... BYE.

its been along time but heres whats going on

i have become a very bad blogger very very bad. i went to the doctor today i'm about 32 ish weeks . this is the week i went on bed rest last time so i was really worried about this appointment. all is well!! my iron levels are low but thats all. baby is measuring good and i only gained 2 pounds this time. its crazy how fast this has gone by. michael is starting to freak out a little bit about how close we are getting. i can't wait !!
next month addi will turn 2 so that will occupy my mind for awhile. she is getting so big. i took out a bunch of her old baby stuff to give to the new baby and me and michael we amazed at how small she once was!!! he is so smart and is saying sentences really well right now here favorite things are opposites yes and no , spicy and sweet, hot and cold etc. she is excited for the baby but i don't think she fully understands. she likes to feel the baby move and put stuff i nthe babies room . it will be interesting to see what she is like with the baby.
michael is working alot like always , alot more than usually unfortunately. we have alot of days or even weeks where all we do is say hello and good bye. some nights i'll even stay up till 1 when he gets home just to spend a little time with him.
we are good for the most part. just busy busy busy. thats all for now hopefuly it wont be another two monthes before the next post
love you all !!

have i been excommunicated from this blogger world?

life has been really boring and really busy all at the same time lately. michael has transfered stores and is now in granger i guess you are supposed to say hurray .............. so hurray.
addi is now n her toddler bed and sleeping really well surprisingly, we have had 2 incidents one where she woke up walked over to her door knocked on it and when i opened it she told me she was poopy and needed her diaper changed got a clean diaper and went right back to bed. last night was a different story, she fell out, i knew it would happen but i hoped we could avoid it so she laid by her door screaming her brains out. so i go to get her because my husband is deaf and i try to put her back in bed after calming her down and all she wants is daddy she just keeps crying saying daddy daddy , i wanted to say daddy is lazy and deaf and can't wake up but then here he comes through the door , i was so glad considering it was 3:45 and i had to get up in an hour to go to work. he came to bed shortly after that and said he thought about just crawling in bed with her and sleeping there, im glad he didnt i dont think that bed could hold his 235 pounds and that would have been dangerous.
so addi loves her bed but now thinks she can sleep whenever she wants.
i think thats all what a boring life , we should find out what our baby is on may 5 .
ta ta for now

singing addison

today we went shopping form ichael aome new work clothes and shoes addison was yelling about how hungry she was so we stopped to get something to eat at denny's . while we were there there was a song playing in the back ground, it was the one thats goes " shine shine shine on" i dont know the name but addison satrs dancing and says shine shine shine and she was tryin to sing it was so cute !!!
later we were in the car and the shake shake song came on and she was singing that until i put her down for her nap, so cute.

poo poo in the potty

i guess i should start by saying i am not full on potty training addi, sometimes she says she needs to potty so we put her on the potty, she doesnt completely understand so i dont want to stress her out by diving into it hard core.
BUT................ addison went poo poo in the potty!!!!
she was dancing around and saying poo poo poo poo so michael said ok lets go potty. He takes her in the bathroom puts her on the potty she grabs the little handles grunts and out comes ........
A LITTLE BABY POO POO!!!! the she looked at it said caca.... and was over it . we were way excited. She can almost always tell you she needs to go poo poo but she cant understand much else. so it was good to finally get one in the potty there were no pictures , because it smelled really bad and my gag reflex is poor. so it was gone very quickly.
so there it is, its funny how when you become a mom you get excited about the most disguisting things. Poo Poos , the mess they make when they feed themselves even dumb things like slobber. I guess poo poo makes me happy hah ah .

have a nice day.

baby baby .........

i was planning on postin this blog then i went to amandas blog because that is what i always do first is read all the blogs and she had posted hers so i would just like to say for the record that i am not copying amanda t's blog that i just have to be able to tell some people before michael tells everyone so here goes ......................... BABY #2 COMING IN SEPTEMBER.

i am only 8 weeks, its early i know its ok, but michael started telling people at 4 weeks when we first found out. so i waited about 4 weeks to share seems long enough to me. addi and the new baby will be just over 2 years apart or 2 years exactly if i have to go early again. Being pregnant for the 2nd time is a little odd its harder with a toddler runnin around we keep telling addi she will be a big sister an she furrows her brows and says sister all confused. michael is excited again haha , he loves babies. im praying for no complications and hoping it all goes great.

so there it is , we are currently trying to buy a house we will talk more about this later .....

"the 5 things people probably dont know about you"

i read this on shannons blog, no one tagged me im just bored and i cant possibly look at anymore houses.........

1. ok so if any of you have been to my apartment house thing you will be shocked by this, but i actually like to clean, i am a little obsessed with things being in their places. the reason i dont apply this in my current home is there is too much stuff and not enough places. but i hate doing dishes, i hate the smell i hate the soap on my hands i hate drying I HATE DISHES!!!! but i love to move things and have them be organized michael gets mad at me because i always tell him he doesn't put things away right. on day we will own our own home and i will have a place for everything and the obsession will be released.

2. i love backrubs mostly neck rubs my neck is always sore due to the amount of weight i carry in my chest, he he , i always find ways to make michale give me back rubs i trick him into thinking that he owes me one for some random reason and he always does it because he loves me. i could use one now.........

3. i dont like medicine...... i would rather cough my brains out than take medicine, i would rather have a headahce than take an asprin . the only one i can stand is peptobismol, enough said there, along with this comes the fact that 1 or 2 asprin can make me loopy. benadryl always makes me loopy. i think i am a weirdo .

4. i shower with my hubby everytime i shower if hes not here i dont shower, i odnt know why and this may be groww to some but its just nice. on sundays we have a fmily shower thats right addi joins us i promise we are not weirdos. it is sometimes the only thing that michael andi have time to do together so we take advantage.


5. i hate kids. ha ha ha GOTCHA!!! i lvoe them from conception to weddings i will enjoy every moment. something about being a mother and watching children grow (not just mine all the ones around me macey, landon, carson so big!! ) is beautiful and heartrenching all at the same time everytime addi says something new i cry and everytime she looks at me and says mommy i want to cry. i guess #5 is that i am a boob i cry all the time mostly at my husband ab=nd daughter and at church when i am countimg my blessings. i think i might cry now .

i guess i am goiing to tag everyone thats right everyone who stops by and reads this consider yourself tagged i want to know all of your deepest secrets!!!

Little tryn and crazy ADDi

well for those of you who havent heard michaels brother ben,s duaghter tryn is here visiting for a few weeks until her mommy and daddy come to utah to visit. This has been a hard time for addi, she's very sppoiled having grandma and grandpa right down stairs and she hasnt had very many kids her age around to share toys with, also this has been hard for tryn not having her mommy and daddy around makes her a little sad........ so here's a look into their daily activities, i wish i had pictures of these things but im never fast enough....

first day we watched tryn we find out she looves michael probably because he looks like ben, we also discover she doesnt know how to use the stairs ( by the way tryn is about 2 weeks or so older than addi) so she stands on top of the stair and basically jumps, this scared michael very much , i found it a little amusing.
tryn and addi got a little messy eating lunch so i decided they should take a bath . As i am filling up the bath tub addi decides tryn needs to learn how to go potty . So she pulls over the baby potty and points and says "tryn potty" and she repeated herself a few times then started to get frustrated and started pulling on tryns pants, eventually she gave up , but i was still amazed by addi.

another day with tryn and addi was not so cute, there is a small storage room off the side of our tv room and we decided thats a good place for toys. the door does not have a handle and so addi has become very good at opening and closing it ........ usually with tryn standing in the doors path. after being hit with the door a few times tryn decides to get addi back and all the sudden they are both pushing the door back and forth trying to hit each other..... after alot of tears and a few time outs i still find this funny.
the best part about having the two of them is when they do play nice its so sweet to see. the like to hide from eachother, addi hides and tryn usually looks for her and tryns laugh is so funny she sounds like a car thats trying to start but cant quite turn over, its the funniest thing i have ever heard.
i know this isnt the most exciting post but thats whats been going on . i love these sweet little girls.

Thursday, January 1, 2009

i guess we will do an update......

So i know i get yelled at alot for not posting any blogs, so her we go with some updates....... michael still works all the time. no change there. His sister had her baby the begining of december, we went to logan to be there when he was born , it was great to see a brand spanking new baby like that , that wasnt mine. he's beautiful and i love him.
I turned 22 this month im an old lady now, michael was really nice he got some of my best child hood friends and our family together an we had dinner and went bowling it was a nice surprise.

then there was christmas, we said we werent going to spend any money on christmas it was our goal to use that money on paying off debt, but michael went over board and didnt follow the rules and got me a pink i pod and i love it it is so cute. The only person we wanted to spendm oney on was addi, my camera is shot so there are no pics hence the long descriptions. Addi loves babies, so i thought we should get her a baby and we got her a little doll crib , changing table, highchair all in one combo thing, that was a joke the box said some assembly required........... pretty sure we did everything short of mold the plastic!!! We got her a baby alive that potties, i htought she might be too little for it but she totally inderstands it, it says " i need to potty hurry hurry" and addi gets all anxious and hurries to find her potty, i thought no one would \get her any dolls pretty sure i was wrong. My sister got her a cabbage patch and my dad and mom got her a cheerleader doll, So with all these babies we have created a monster!!!! Addi totally thinks shes the mom, she tells me no and naughty, she runs around the house with the baby on her hip and she has to put the babyto bed before she will get close to her bed. I dont think this will go away , i will have to give in, she is now the mommy and i have been bumped down...

And finally the best part .....everytime michael leaves for work addison will stand at the top of our stairs and say bye bye daddy , today same thing , except michael forgot something and had to run in the other room. so everytime he's leaving and i said " say bye bye daddy love you" and addi said bye bye love you it was so cute!!!!! i have to admit i was a little jealous that michael got the love you beforei did but it was still super cute all the same.

i hope this catches everything up, ill work on that camrea see what i can do about some pictures, sorry such a long post happy new year!!!
