Welcoming Baby #4

2012-01-26T17:32:00.003-07:00

We are excited to announce that baby #4 is on the way. We are due August 12. This pregnancy has been a hard and challenging time for all of us so far. We are only about 12 weeks along and for the last 4 weeks I have been dealing with extreme nausea and vomiting. I am on IV fluids twice a day and haven't been able to work or even really take care of the kids or house or anything. I just sit or lay down and concentrate on trying not to throw up. I have tried all the different anti nausea medications that the doctor has prescribed and the zofran has been helping some. I am hoping that now that I am getting into my second trimester that things will start getting better. This pregnancy has been so different from all my other pregnancies that I feel like this is my first pregnancy all over again because nothing that I know works. I am so grateful for my mom and mother in law who have helped a lot with taking care of the kids, doing my dishes and laundry. Steve also has been amazing he has become mom, wife and homemaker. I truly have an amazing husband.

Getting X-rays

Miles thought the dentist was pretty cool. He got a new toothbrush and got to watch the TV in the ceiling with earphones, and there is a club house in the waiting room. What is not to love about that. On the down side, he has the beginnings of 4 cavities.

We went camping to Millhollow again this year. The kids had a lot of fun playing in the dirt and fishing and roasting hot dogs and mellows. Camping is exhausting with kids but they have a ton of fun and is worth it. Kyle caught his first fish and he was so excited. We had the fish with dinner and everyone got one bite.

We went to Mexico with the whole Marks side of the family. We were there for 10 days. We had a lot of fun mostly at the beach and pool. We also went on a all day boat ride and swam with the dolphins. That was my favorite part. We all had a lot of fun.

Happy birthday Kyle. I can't believe you are 5 years old. You are growing too fast. You are starting school this fall and you are going to love it. Life is only beginning for you. I love you so much and am so proud of you.

The worst part of working where I work.....

2010-05-06T04:21:00.002-06:00

For those of you who don't know, I work as a nurse at LDS hospital on the Oncology/Bone Marrow Transplant floor. The worst part about working here is when a patient that has a special place in your heart passes away. I just had a patient pass away yesterday who I just adored. I loved going into his room and just talking with him. He was such an amazing guy. That is also one of the best things about working here. You meet amazing people who have an affect on your life. I am blessed to work here and meet amazing people who better my life in many ways.

Sick kids....

2010-05-06T02:51:00.004-06:00

It is so sad when you have sick kids and there is nothing to do for them. Miles just got over the coxsockie virus, AKA hand-foot-mouth virus. It was so sad he had little blister like sores all over in his mouth, a couple on his feet and one on his hand. The mouth was the worst part. He couldn't eat, drink, sleep, or suck his binkie and if any of you know Miles you know something is wrong. He is a binkie-a-holic. A couple of the nights he would wake up every 20 minutes just in pain and there was nothing to do. I would give him tylenol and ibuprofen, but the medication hurt his mouth. It lasted about 5 days. It was rough. I don't know if I could have taken it anymore. My poor boy. Thank goodness it is over. Sorry to anyone we may have infected. I don't wish that on anyone.

Bowling

2010-04-01T20:28:00.000-06:00

This was the first time we took the boys out bowling. They had a great time as did the rest of us. The kids were done after about the 6th frame, but it was fun. We will definitely do it again.

Cute boys

Christmas 2009

2010-04-01T19:52:00.000-06:00

I know it has been a while. Things have been a little busy and really I just haven't gotten around to updating. Sorry everyone who looks at the blog.

Christmas was a blast this year with 3 kids. They all had a lot of fun. They "enjoyed" seeing Santa at the Festival of Trees, and were excited for him to come visit the house. I was crazy and decided to do a lot of homemade gifts to save on money. I made file folder games for the boys and sowed Quillows for all the kids. It was fun watching their faces as they opened their gifts. Steve mom made jammies again for all the grandkids. She does it every year and the kids just love them.

BYU Womens Basketball

2009-11-07T10:47:00.001-07:00

Megan is starting her basketball season. We went and watched her play last night in an exhibition game and she was awesome. She played very well. We just want to wish her good luck on this years season. GO BYU #55! You ROCK sister!

Cute or what?

2009-11-07T10:35:00.000-07:00

We wanted to get some pictures of the kids. This is the best one of Kyle and Miles wouldn't look at the camera. We ran out of time so we will try again later. Layla's picture turned out good but she usually always cooperates.

Don't you love Fall

2009-10-22T10:52:00.000-06:00

I love Fall. I love the changing of the leaves, the crisp air, and the starting of the holiday season; just to name a few. The kids love playing outside in the leaves and that always makes for cute pictures. I hope everyone has a great Fall!

Layla and her tutu

2009-09-12T07:45:00.000-06:00

I have wanted to get a tutu for Layla since she was born. My mother in law made Layla a tutu and it turned out so cute. We took pictures pictures last night and they turned out adorable. Thanks mom for making the tutu, I love it.

Layla - 6 months

2009-08-29T10:57:00.000-06:00

I just took Layla in for her 6 month appointment. I can't believe my baby is 6 months old. She is rolling all over the floor. She will be at one end of the room and in a matter of a minute she will be at the other end. She has started pulling herself to her hands and knees to start crawling. Luckily she has not started crawling yet but it is just a matter of time. She loves baby food. So far her favorites are sweet potatoes, peas, and pears. She does not like banana. Ya, she is weird. Her stats: 15 lbs (24%), 25 inches long (18%), and 16 inches head circumference (14%). She is just a petite little girl. We love her so much.

Who doesn't love Oreos

2009-08-24T09:07:00.000-06:00

My kids love Oreos. Why wouldn't they. Chocolate with yummy cream filling. They love to dip the cookies in milk; the only way to eat them in my opinion.

About Kyle

2009-08-23T23:22:00.000-06:00

Kyle has been playing T-ball this summer. He seems to enjoy it. He is done though after 15 minutes. He has started preschool again and loves it. He is only 2 weeks into it but gets excited to go on preschool days. He celebrated his 4th birthday July 1. I can't believe he is four. He tells me he loves being four because four is his favorite number. some of the things he says just make me laugh. The funny things kids say. He loves playing transformers and super heroes with his "guys". He will play that where ever. He even played it in the swimming pool with his cousin Rayce. We love him so much.

About Miles

2009-08-23T23:08:00.000-06:00

Miles is still very busy. He always keeps me on my toes. He is just now starting to talk and it is so fun to hear how he pronounces different words. He loves playing with Kyle and he is always trying to "help" me with Layla. Now that Layla uses the exersaucer, Miles tries to pull her out so he can use it. I find him sitting in the saucer all the time. He is such a joy to us. We love him a lot.

About Layla

2009-08-23T22:52:00.000-06:00

Layla has started into the baby food. For the most part she loves it. Her favorites so far are sweet potatoes, peas, and pears. She is starting to get the hang of eating. It is pretty cute watching her eat. She also loves the exersaucer. She has so much fun until Miles hits her in the head with one of the toys or tries to pull her out because he thinks he needs a turn. She has been such a joy and blessing in our life. We love her so much.

Memorial Weekend

Rayce giving Kyle a ride

I took the kids camping with my sister and her family, my brother, and my other sister and brother in law. Steve unfortunately had to work all weekend so he missed out on the fun. We went down to the Sand Dunes at Little Sahara. The boys had so much fun in the sand. The cutest part of the whole trip was my sisters little boy Rayce, who is 4 years old, took Kyle on a 4 wheeler ride. It was the cutest thing. Night time wasn't always so fun, but thanks to my sister Melissa she helped me stay sane while Miles and Layla were up in the night. Over all it was a fun weekend and the kids had fun, that is the most important.

Kyle's first soccer game

2009-04-27T16:30:00.000-06:00

Kyle stealing the ball

Kyle started soccer this spring and last Saturday was his first game. He did pretty good running back and forth and every once in a while he would kick the ball. He did steal the ball, to bad it was from his own teammate. It is kind of humorous seeing 3 year old kids playing soccer.

Layla's blessing

2009-04-15T18:00:00.000-06:00

We blessed Layla on March 29, 2009. It was a special day. The spirit was strong and Steve did an amazing job with the blessing. We had a lot of family and friends there and many who were not able to make it and we missed them. Layla looked beautiful.

Layla, Miles and Kyle

2009-03-07T09:16:00.000-07:00

Layla had her 2 week doctor visit this last week. She is growing well. She is 6 lbs 14 oz and 20 inches long. She is still a pretty good baby. She has her fussy moments, but what baby doesn't.

Miles had his 15 month doctor visit. He is 22 lbs 4 oz. and 30.71 inches tall. He is only in the 19% for weight, but is doing well.

Kyle had his follow up visit from his surgery. He had his adenoids and tonsils taken out February 3. He has recovered really well from it. He breathes a lot better and has now been sleeping through the night.

Congrats Matt

2009-03-05T22:15:00.000-07:00

My little brother Matt received his mission call yesterday. He has been called to the Romania Bucharest mission. I don't know of anyone who has gone to Romania. When he first read his mission call I thought he was joking but no; he is going to Romania. He reports to the MTC June 3. I think we are all in shock but are very excited for him. Congrats Matt. You are going to be a great missionary.

Getting ready to go home from the hospital

Bath time

Kyle meeting Layla

Miles meeting Layla

Layla greeted us on February 16, 2009 at 9:19 pm. She weighed 6 pounds 11 ounces and is 19 inches long. She was 3 weeks early but is doing good. She is healthy and happy and brings joy and love into our home. The boys love her and are always trying to touch and see her.

As for the labor and delivery for any of you that would like to know it went relatively well. I decided to have her natural with no epidural. It was very painful but I am glad I decided to do it. Thankfully I dilate and deliver really fast. I went from 5 cm dilated to her laying on the bed in less than 5 minutes. In fact, I go so fast that there was no doctor in the room. I had 4 nurses in the room and they were great. The doctor arrived a couple minutes after Layla was born.

Layla's bilirubin count is really high so she is on the bilirubin lights to help her body get rid of the excess bilirubin. She started the lights at the hospital and now that we are home she is still on the lights. We take her in daily to get lab draws to see how her body is getting rid of the excess bilirubin. This is nothing new for us. Kyle was also on the bilirubin lights. Hopefully in the next day of two she will be able to be off the lights.

I think I am still in a daze about having a baby again and having a baby girl. I find myself calling Layla a him all the time. I am so grateful for all my kids and love them dearly.

Fun and Random Pictures

Woke up one morning and found Kyle in the crib with Miles

Miles thought he could climb over the stool and got stuck

Thought I would throw some fun and random pictures of the boys since it has been awhile since I blogged.

Kyle learning to write his name

2009-02-14T13:53:00.000-07:00

We have been teaching Kyle to trace and write his name. He is doing pretty well for a 3 year old. Notice the way he holds his pencil. We are still trying to teach him a better way to do that.

Happy 1st Birthday Miles

2008-12-14T11:29:00.000-07:00

Miles celebrated his first birthday December 1. I can't believe my baby boy is a one year old. He is growing up so fast. He is starting to walk and he climbs on everything. His favorite thing is to climb up the stairs especially when he is running away from me or Steve. He can go up the stairs very well and without ease but he still does not know how to go down the stairs. He tries to go down head first. Kyle and Miles play really well together. They love to wrestle and chase each other. It is so fun and cute to see them interact. Miles has been a wonderful and added blessing to our family and I can't imagine life without him.

Kyle's staples...

2008-12-14T11:18:00.000-07:00

Well, sorry it has taken so long to post pictures of Kyle's staples. He did so good getting them removed. He barely flinched when they removed them which shocked me, but made me so proud of him. He had them removed on November 25. You can barely see the scar on his head with his hair.

Another visit to the Insta Care...

2008-11-18T22:08:00.001-07:00

Well, we visited the insta care for the second time with Kyle tonight. Kyle was running around the house with his cars and ran right into the corner of the wall. He hit the top of his head and has an inch to an inch and a half cut. He received 4 staples to close it up. Yes I said staples. He screamed when the doctor placed them but he didn't move. He just squeezed my arms and hands and luckily the staples were placed in less than a minute. He is a brave and special boy. Kyle is only 3 years old and he has had stitches and now staples. I see a future full of emergency room and insta care visits. We didn't take any pictures during, but I will take some pictures of the staples and his head tomorrow and post them later.

Update on the pregnancy

2008-10-21T04:12:00.000-06:00

Two Saturdays ago I started bleeding and of course I was hysterical. We went to the hospital to check to see if the baby was still there, and we found a heart beat. It is a good, strong heartbeat. They put me on bed rest until my scheduled ultrasound in 9 days. I stopped bleeding until last Friday when I started spotting again. I called the doctor and he just placed me on strict bed rest until the ultrasound in 3 days. The doctors were thinking maybe I had placenta previa. Well Monday came and ultrasound time is here. The baby looks healthy and is very active. We got a good open shot of the sex. We are having a GIRL!!!!! I am so excited. Steve is still in shock, but is getting used to the idea. I do not have placenta previa, the placenta has ripped away from the uterus a little and just needs time to heal and reattach itself. I am not suppose to do any excessive lifting or heavy lifting, vacuuming, or laundry and I am suppose to take it easy. Easier said then done with 2 kids but Steve is really good about keeping me off my feet. We are really excited about having a girl and all the drama she will cause. She is all ready causing us drama and she is still in the womb!

Miles at 9 months

2008-09-17T14:33:00.000-06:00

Miles just had his 9 month doctor visit. He is 19 pounds and 3 oz and 27.95 inches tall. He is in the 24th percentile for weight and 32nd percentile for height. He is a lot different then Kyle was at this age. If any of you remember Kyle, he was in the 80-90th percentile for both.

Anyway, Miles is full of personality and life. He is close to standing on his own and he walks around with furniture. I don't think it will be long before he takes his first step. He loves to climb up on things and pull things down, like our surround sound speakers or the floor lamp. He still has no teeth and it doesn't look like any are coming soon. He loves most of the baby foods, but he likes food from my plate best. He hates bananas, baby food or reel bananas. His favorite thing to do is play with Kyle. He will chase Kyle around the house and they wrestle together; it is so fun watching the interaction between the two of them.

Miles had his first haircut on July 25. I just trimmed up the top because it would just hang weird and it looked funny. He did really well and didn't seem to mind all that much.

Kyle's first day of preschool

2008-08-26T10:48:00.000-06:00

Kyle had his first day of preschool on August 6. He has it once a week for 2.5 hours. He loves it. Every week when I pick him up he always asks when he can go back to preschool. There are about 12 kids in his class and even though he is one of the youngest, he is one of the biggest.

Our trip to Washington

Steve and Mike just before the wedding

We had a great trip to Washington. We were able to do a lot of things like camping, the zoo, a Mariners game, fishing(which Steve loved teaching Kyle), and just hanging out; but the main reason we went was for Steve's best friend Mike's wedding. We traveled a lot between Seattle and Bellingham which is just under a 2 hour drive. The kids traveled very well and it was a great trip.

Mariners Game

2008-08-26T09:59:00.001-06:00

We lucked out that the Seattle Mariners playing in town while we were there. They played the Baltimore Orioles and Mariners won 8-4. It was a good game. We didn't get there until the bottom of the 5th inning, but it was enough. We also lucked out that at the end of the game they let us run the bases. It was cool. I don't know who had more fun the kids or Steve. Steve had a grin on his face the whole time.

Woodland Park Zoo

2008-08-26T09:28:00.000-06:00

We went to Woodland Park Zoo while in Washington. We were able to get in free with our Hogel Zoo membership; we were glad about that because it is kind of expensive. Kyle had so much fun. He loves animals, any kind. It was a huge zoo. It took us all day long to go through it and I think we still missed some.

Camping in Washington

2008-08-26T09:04:00.000-06:00

We went camping while we were in Washington. It was so beautiful. We camped right by the water. You looked across the water and saw Canada. We camped for 3 days and it only rained one of those days.

Unexpected News....but Exciting

2008-08-07T10:30:00.000-06:00

I know I haven't posted for awhile, we have been in Washington for a family vacation. I will post pictures soon. First of all, we have some big news.....We are expecting baby number 3 in March; March 11 is the official due date. This pregnancy took us by surprise. We weren't quite expecting this but we are excited, some days better than others. I have been sick which is not abnormal for me. Steve has been great in helping me in any way he can. The kids have been good but I don't think they know what is going on except mom is not herself.

Our first visit to the InstaCare...

2008-07-03T23:23:00.000-06:00

Well last night, Kyle slipped while trying to get into the bath tub and he hit his chin. Luckily it didn't bleed too much. Of course Kyle was naked, so I got him dressed, loaded Miles and Kyle into the car, and headed to the Insta Care (there is one just down the street from us). I called Steve at work and he met us there. Kyle did so good. The nurse put Lidocaine gel on the cut for about 15 minutes, then he got a Lidocaine shot and then 5 stitches!!! He didn't flinch or really even cry when the doctor was placing the stitches or giving him the shot. He is such a brave boy. Even today he didn't complain much about it hurting.

Kyle's baby blessing. September 4, 2005

What a handsome devil

Kyle's first bath at the hospital. I love his monkey face!!!

July 1, 2005

Today my baby boy turns 3 years old. I can't believe how the time has flown by. He has changed so much from that tiny baby we brought home from the hospital and so much has happened in his short life. He weighed only 5 lbs 14 oz when he came home from the hospital. He had be be place on UV lights for 4 days at home to help his tiny body get rid of the excess bilirubin. It was scary because his bilirubin numbers kept going up when they should have been going down. I had to take him into the hospital everyday for 7 days to get his heels pricked for the lab draw to check his bilirubin level. I was unable to hold my baby for 4 days, while he was on the lights, except to feed him. Eventually everything turned out good and he was able to get off the lights.
When he was 6 months old he was diagnosed with RSV. Luckily he never had to be hospitalized. I would just sit and hold him and cry. I would stay up with him at night to make sure he continued breathing good through out the night. We had to give him albuterol nebulizers to help open his airway and help him breath better. You could tell that he didn't feel good because he would just sit on my lap and breath in the medication. The last couple of days that he was on the nebulizer, I had to pin him down to get him to do the breathing treatment. He eventually got over the RSV but his lungs have never been the same. Last March he was officially diagnosed with asthma. He doesn't have the typical type of asthma with the wheezing; his is more of an inflammation process. He would cough all the time and cough so hard it would make him throw up. It was so sad. His pediatrician said it is not uncommon for infants who have had RSV to get childhood asthma and that he may grow out of it. He is taking Flovent inhaler twice a day and what a difference that has made. He rarely has coughing attacks anymore and when he does we use an albuterol inhaler. For the most part Kyle does not mind "taking" his medicine. We make a game out of it.
He has grown into a healthy little boy. He is now a SOLID 37 pounds and he is ALL BOY. He loves cars, trucks, dirt, animals, dinosaurs, anything that can get him dirty, etc. He is a happy kid that loves to play, run and wrestle with his dad. He is his dad's shadow. He loves it when dad is home. Whenever Steve is at work all I hear all day long is "Where's Dad?". He loves watching the old animated Spider man, Batman, Superman, and GI Joe with Steve. It is so funny to watch both Steve and Kyle watching the cartoons. They both have the little kid grin while they are watching. He has the cutest little giggle and he is such a happy kid. I love him so much and feel truly blessed that I can be his mother.
Happy Birthday Kyle

Playing in the snow. Winter 2008

Thanks for the suggestions...

2008-06-17T02:06:00.000-06:00

Thank you all for your suggestions. So I started potty training Kyle on Saturday June 7 and Saturday and Sunday he had a few accidents. Monday he only had 2 accidents and now he goes days with no accidents. Hopefully I am not jinking myself. He has been so easy, so I am told. He wears underwear all day long and he still wears a diaper at night, but sometimes he keeps it dry. We will see. I tried using a little toilet for the first 2 days but he hated it; he wanted to use the big toilet like Dad and since then he has done fantastic. He gets a sticker and a chocolate everytime he goes pee on the toliet and a sticker and 2 chocolates everytime he goes poop on the toilet. I still ask him frequently if he needs to go, but most of the time he goes by himself.
We went camping over Father's day weekend and I think the outhouses scared him. We had to really push him to use them. We let him just pee outside once but he peed all over Steve so we didn't do that anymore. Overall he is doing great!

He has been the best kid for any transition in his life. I have really had it easy and so now I am afraid for the transitions with Miles. Hopefully he wont be a nightmare.

Potty Training Kyle..any suggestions..

2008-06-07T10:36:00.000-06:00

So I am starting to potty train Kyle, it has been a long time coming since he is almost 3. I am still not sure how to do it. I am sort of making it up as I go. If anybody has any suggestions I am open to them.

I finally went and bought an ExerSaucer for Miles. I used my sisters for Kyle, but she has a baby a month younger than Miles so I couldn't just borrow hers again. Miles loves it. He will just jump and spin around in it. It is so nice that there is something that keeps his attention for 15-20 minutes at a time.

Miles' first solid foods

Miles started eating solids at the beginning of April. He wasn't to sure about it. He didn't really care for the rice cereal so I switched him to the single grain oatmeal and he loves it. I have now started him on fruits and veggies and he loves them. His favorites are sweet potatoes and pears. He has oatmeal in the morning and fruits and veggies in the evening. I can't believe he is getting so big. He will be 6 months on Sunday. It is amazing how time flies!!!

Kyle loves Miles so much. He loves to help take care of him by feeding him his cereal, getting him dressed, and giving him a bath. He also loves to hold him. I am just waiting for the day when Kyle decides to pick Miles up with out my help.

Zoo - March 2008

Finally some nice weather. Steve and I took the boys to the zoo. We have a membership there and go quite often during the spring thru fall. It was Miles' first time to the zoo and Kyle loved showing him all the animals.
