Gosh as many of you can obviously tell I haven't be present in the Internet world since well.... April.. I have really been just surviving. Really, I cant even remember the day before. Things have been a bit crazy, but on top of that my brain cannot even register to do anything more than be the mom when I'm home. So sorry to my friends that have tried to call, I just cant remember to do anything.
Any how here are a few updates with us. I AM STILL PREGNANT. Which has been just fine by me, except this last week or so, I'm ready to have a baby now. When he starts taking over the functions of my body and I am no longer walking, and sleeping or functioning, well ITS TIME! Heavenly Father knew he would have to give me Alzheimer's through this pregnancy so that I would one day consider it again. It hasn't been bad, but every other things I have been going through has been. Just alot of things extra to do and its way harder to already have a child when there is one cooking in side me. I had no idea. Any of my Shane Co. peeps will remember me saying "WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD SOME ONE DO THIS MORE THAN ONCE." and I just had to take care of my self back then.. I'M A TOTAL WHINER! I am SO SO SO GRATEFUL TO BE ABLE TO HAVE THIS LITTLE MAN THOUGH! We tried for so long and prayed for so long, and well here we are now 6 and half weeks from delivery.
This summer has been quite eventful. This year we were going to pour our patio for our walk out.. YAH! but instead of getting our patio we paid for our DOG! TO NOT LOOSE HER TOE.. As many of you know this dog has not been the highlight of my existence. But I keep saying when I'm not pregnant and insane we will be friends. she is a good dog, but I'M CRAZY.. so that has been hard. Our friend Peggy said it best. "WE WILL NEVER GET A PUPPY EVER AGAIN... BEEN THERE DONE THAT. WE LIKE THE OLD ONES" So next time (if there is a next time) I will be taking that advise. So what happened with the dog, she went pee on the floor....YUMMY and Mike got after her and she ran down to our basement and did it again and so of COURSE he was PISSED! and ran after her and she ran behind our food storage shelves where there is metal tracking down and well he had to pull her out and sliced it open in between her two paws. Well we thought that she just bruised it because it wasn't bleeding, so she babied it for a few days and it just kept getting more swollen and purple. So I took her to the vet and it burst open and started bleeding all over. ya... so then they just wrapped it and gave us some pain killers.... So I thought the visit would be about $90.00 or so.. NO!!!!! $210.00 DOLLARS!!! OH I WAS SO SO PISSED. Then the tissue started to die, because she wouldn't leave it alone. so here is where the amputation was coming in, it was all infected and (sorry to be graphic) chunks of her paw were falling, off. So a million pain pills, and antibiotics later and a dozen or so visits later $36.00 every week for like 6 weeks, it started to get better. and there went our patio. Because we had like $30.00 of pills a week and half on top of it. She was way ghetto for a while we had to put Mikes old socks on her and tape them to her leg, because the little SHIT! kept eating way her bandages, and she couldn't the socks off. It was so gross. So next year we might have a patio instead of a mud pit.. I'm excited for that day.
We had Coleman's 3rd birthday this spring in June. I will give that its own post, because I have a million pictures to unload onto this things.
Mike and I celebrated our 5th anniversary. Which was the same weekend we were going to do the patio. We did have a GREAT WEEKEND THOUGH, and again I will give that its own post.
We did a little bit of camping this year with our ward, and at a family reunion. We had two of those 2 weekends in a row, super fun. Both of those were alot of fun, and it was so nice to see everyone. We really do have some great family members. And its nice to catch up, it makes you wonder why you wait so long in between visits.
So now on to the individual posts. It will be alot sorry, you don't have to read them all I thought this would be also a good way to update my brother David in Mexico. YES! I HAVE BEEN A HUGE HUGE SLACKER THERE TOO, I HAVEN'T SENT HIM MUCH OF ANYTHING THIS WHOLE TIME.

STAY-CATION
WHO KNOWS IF THAT IS REALLY HOW YOU SPELL THAT OR NOT, BUT THAT IS GOING TO BE HOW I SPELL IT. SO STAYCATION... INSTEAD OF GOING TO ST. GEORGE LIKE WE HAD PLANNED FOR OUR ANNIVERSARY MAY 22. WE DECIDED TO STAY HOME AND JUST DO A TON OF FUN THINGS, ALONG WITH POUR OUR PATIO.. BUT LIKE I SAID IN THE LATEST POST IT DIDN'T WORK OUT FOR THE PATIO. BUT WE HAD THE BEST TIME EVER! I STRONGLY RECOMMEND IT. AS LONG AS YOU CAN GET YOUR MAN TO COMMIT TO NOT DOING ANYTHING ELSE, LIKE YARD WORK, OR WORK IN THE GARAGE, OR HELPING NEIGHBORS, AND FAMILY IT WILL WORK OUT GREAT.
SO SINCE WE WEREN'T GOING DESTINATION WE DECIDED TO CAMP, IN OUR BACK YARD. IN OUR MUD PIT, THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A PATIO. BUT IT GAVE IT A REAL AUTHENTIC FEEL. AND THEN WE DID SOME SUPER FUN THINGS WITH COLEMAN.
WE SPENT ONE DAY AT THE CHILDREN'S MUSEUM. AND THEN WE PLAYED AT THE GATEWAY IN THE WATER FOUNTAINS. THEN THE NEXT WE WENT TO CLASSIC SKATING UP IN SANDY. AND WELL MIKE HAD NEVER BEEN THERE SO IT WAS JUST AS MUCH FUN FOR MIKE AS IT WAS FOR COLEMAN. WE WERE THE ONLY! ONES THERE FOR ABOUT 98% OF THE TIME, SO MIKE AND I TOOK ADVANTAGE OF IT, AND WENT ON ALL THE BOUNCY STUFF, THE SKATING RINK, THE JUNGLE GYM. IT ABOUT KILLED BOTH MIKE AND I. WHAT WE WOULDN'T DO TO BE AS ACTIVE AS A LITTLE KID AGAIN. IT WAS A BLAST. APPARENTLY THE WEEK TO WEEKEND OF MEMORIAL WEEKEND IS DEAD THERE. SO I THINK NEXT YEAR WE WILL DO THAT AGAIN.
THEN ANOTHER DAY WE DID A CAMP FIRE WITH OUR NEIGHBORS, WE HAD HOT DOGS, AND MARSH MELLOWS, & SMORES. IT WAS A TOTAL BLAST. IT EVEN STARTED TO DUMP RAIN ON US AND WE ALL JUST STAYED OUT THERE ANYWAY AROUND THE CAMP FIRE. IT WAS SO SO SO MUCH FUN.
THEN ON ANOTHER DAY WE WENT TO THANKSGIVING POINT AND DID THE DINOSAUR MUSEUM. AND WELL IT WAS KINDA DUMB, BUT THE SAND AND WATER TABLE WAS THE BOMB. WE ALL PLAYED IN THAT FOR LIKE AN HOUR. I WANT MIKE TO BUILD ON NOW. HE CAN DO IT. HE KNOWS HOW TO DO EVERYTHING. BUT HERE ARE SOME OF THE FUN PICTURES FROM OUR ADVENTURE.
