In Memory of...

Poor Hokahey went to puppy heaven where he will never run out of PVC pipe to chew on or bunnies to chase. He was getting too aggressive so we made a really hard decision and decided to put him down. Very crappy day yesterday. We'll miss our little guy!

The Good News

So 2 weeks ago at my ultrasound they found a major, life threatning problem with the babys lungs. (Plueral Effusion) Its VERY rare only about 1 in 15,000 so my doc had to refer me to a specialist and I had that appointment today. They did an extensive ultrasound and found that his plueral effusion has spontaniously healed. This only happens 10% of the time so it was awsome to have it happen to me especially so quickly. Now his lungs should have time to develope before he is born, his heart wont be stopped by compression, I wont have to deliver at Primary Childrens hospital, he wont have one lung-if he survived, and no high risk surgeries to the baby while he's in my belly. Im so so happy and relieved. Thanks for keeping us in your prayers.

Grand Targhee

For some reason I can never get the pics in the right order. Above is Kaylee with Kyla petting the horsey. Kyla still REALLY loves horseys.

My baby's hair is getting long and curly.

She thought she was "pitty" (pretty) in my coat and wanted to wear it. She also really wanted to sit in this chair like a big girl and stayed there for about 30 min. This is at Kaylees house.

My mom and Kyla during the buggy ride.

Part of the massive conference room we rented at the Grand Targhee resort. The snowboard runs end at the entrance to the hotel so it was pretty cool. Everyone was there except Chantal and Bren but they did come up for part of the time and we stayed at there apt in Rexburg for a night and they let us stay in their King size bed. So nice.

Kaylee, my mom, and Kyla.

Watching Kung Fu Panda one of Kylas favorite "moomees"

The parents/grandparnts who made this fabulous winter trip possible.

The group. Kyla and I didnt snowboard for obvious reasons. I had to convince my dad that the baby pink snowboard he wanted to get her was probably a bit "too old" for Kyla this season so she got snow pants instead and had a good time sliding down hill on her bum.

Ahhh another family picture.

Little Miss Kyla

She just has grown up too fast!

The jacket her aunt Kaylee got her from Chile. Kyla now loves to say "coat" and then brings me one to wear.

One morning she somehow managed to do this to herself.

This is a portible speaker. Kyla likes to carry aroung her music everywhere she goes. Its a great tracking device.

Drawing is her favorite thing to do, sadly right now her drawings take after her mothers.

What the???

After mocking my bloging efforts since our family blog began I find out this...Seth has his own little blog. I cant believe it. I went down into the basement and he was setting it up, for his busines projects I guess but still. What is the world coming to. www.cldutah.blogspot.com

Heres to you Kaylee

Holy Technical Difficulties. This is supposed to be after the post below this one. But my computer is mixing up all my pictures so everything is very mix matched. Sorry. Kyla watching the fireworks on New Years

My Dad has a bit of a problem when it comes to explosives...pyro.

After I had my ultrasound we (my mom and me) took Kyla on the Merry-go-round. Once it started moving she was terrified, not crying but making all sorts of nervous noises and had a death grip on me. Of course as soon it was over she wanted to give her horsey a kiss.

Kyla all big and brave before the merry go round started. Making horse noises and pointing at everything. She was very good at holding the gold bar until the horse started moving.

New Years Family Pic What a shame that Im the only one looking at the camera. Oh well. (that isnt a scarf wrapped around my head)

Kyla and her cousin Shelby New Years Eve she was dancing and shaking her little hiny for everyone. She love to dance.

Me and my cousin Jana

Kyla and my parents dog Powder. She loved going to see Powder and giving her hugs and kisses

This is our tradition on New Years Eve. We build snowman but then we kill them with fire. This lucky guy got flaming wreaths on his head. AHhh good times.

Christmas morning

Kaylee and Scott had a Baby!!!!

Are you supposed to look this cute on Christmas Morning?!

Our dog Roxy. Since we were out of town for a while we had to bring our dogs. Roxy is trying to get in on the Christmas action.

Christmas morning....I think Seth might kill someone if there are more pictures taken.

Longest Post Ever

Kyla realizing she has no hands.

Christmas Morning. She LOVED that horsey!

Kyla visiting Santa and she not quite sure what she is supposed to do.

Wondering why he is not saying HO HO HO like her parents told her he would.

Ahhhh Blackberries and Whip Cream I think this was Christmas Eve. Blackberries are by far Kylas favorite food.

Wow so its been a month since I last posted. A lot has happened with Seths Birthday, Kylas 1st Birthday, Christmas, Santa, New Years and the pregnancy. Ill try to catch up. Ive been dreading the blog lately, mostly since Ive been dreading everything that is not essential to life...and even then....I think its cause the pregnancy hormones/sick time. I get to blame everything on those right? But now that Im being harrassed soI figured Id post plus I have news......

ITS A BOY!!!!!

Totally excited now Ill have one of each so the pressure is off (not that there really was any). I thought it was a boy too except I kept thinking it would be nice to have a girl-then we wouldnt have to buy a thing- but alas now I get to get more baby clothes. Oh how fun. Seth is excited and coming up with bizare names. He thinks he gets to name the baby since its a boy, at first I thought okay but then he came up with names like Ragnar, Lanbe, Wolfgar, and other ones I dont think there are real letters for. So perhaps I will not let him near the birth certificate when the time comes. I guess this is what happens when your spouse is obsessed with acient history. Anyway here is the pic of the little one.

The rest of the pics are not in any order but Ill lable then for you
