Wham!

Oh yes it is also again another attempt to find a sport that my boys enjoy. This time I think we have finally found one, oh yea its BASKETBALL! They really seem to enjoy it. Chase came in this morning and asked me if he can always play basketball. Heck yea I told him. Anyways I think they looked pretty dang cute in there uniforms too!


I know it doesn't look like it here but this was the first game and Rhett was still slightly confused at what was going on. I guess you forget that they don't just know they actually have to learn. Well this mornings game was much better than the others they both made a few baskets and were a TON more confident.

Forgot to mention........Antabiotic FREE!


December of 2005 my sweet little Reese was about six months old and I had taken her in to the doctor on a Monday and he told me she looked fine but if she started a high fever to bring her back, well that night is when she started running a fever. My Reese got up to about 102.5 when I decided to bring her back in. She had been really fussy and not sleeping, pretty much she seemed just sad and unhappy with anything. I took her in and Dr. Mike, if any of you have him I love him he is great, and he took her temp looked at her, left the room and came back in and said....
"I have just called down to mesa Lutheran and they are expecting you now. Don't go home, go straight there your baby is sick.
I think she either has meningitis or a really bad UTI."
Well this was really alot to take in so I called my mom and she was on her way there to meet me and Randalls mom was on her way to take the kids. So I went down there and waited and after four attempts at drawing her blood and the setup for a
spinal tap they got blood and urine......feeeeeuw! They tested both and found that she had a kidney infection, it was not ever a UTI, yep kidneys.
This situation led to a year and a half of tests and caths and lots of
drugs, everyday in fact she would take antibiotics.
Well on May 29, 2007 Reese went in for surgery and had a billaderal uriter re implantation. I don't think there is anything that can prepare you for the way it feels to have your baby taken from your arms, and praying that Heavenly Father knows that you could not handle it if something were to happen to her. I t is a very eery feeling and you feel as though you are watching yourself go through this. This was scary, and so hard to see your precious angel baby this way. I was six and a half months pregnant with Quincy, number five, And it was my birthday the next day! We stayed for three nights and brought her home, safe but cranky with a scar that looks like she had a c-section. She was still on antibiotics until November 17, 2007.......Yeah!!!!! So now we move on and hope there are no more issues! All in all I am glad that my sweet Reese is still here and now healthy and normal.
I love you Soooooo much!

Santa BABY!

Oh yes Santa Clause showed up at my mom and dads! How lucky were we! Chase and Rhett were a little skeptical at first but then they tugged on the beard and pulled the hair and finally figured out, that yea it really was SANTA!
Kali Ray! Yep she of course really liked him! Any Male for that matter he is her newest and best friend! Can we all say SCARY! I love the kid for the same reason she drives me nuts, She has NO FEAR!!
Oh you think she is trying to, oh I don't know, LATCH ON! Yeah cause she was! As soon as he took her she cozied in and instantly thought food was on its way! You would not know it cause the kid is so dang small be she really does like food, A LOT!
Yea she too was a little scared at first and wouldn't smile, and really never really warmed up to the beard and fuzzy pants!
Oh Rhett! Love him and love that he questions EVERYTHING! Oh yeah if you tell him something new, he already knows. He new it was SANTA and new he didn't smile, oh yea he already knows whatever you are telling.
