In response to some of the comments.....


Jennie, as far as the cyst goes.... we are just going to watch it like a hawk throughout the pregnancy. There is a chance it will have to be removed during the pregnancy like what happened with Isaac. If not then the dr. will remove it along with my right ovary and fallopian tube after delivering the baby.

I too am praying for a girl. I hope that is not wrong. But since it is my last chance I feel justified.
Isaac prays for a sister every time he prays. I had to sit him down and explain that there is still a chance that we will get a brother. I told him I would be just as happy and grateful because I know the Lord knows our family and what soul is to come here.

I hope he understands.

Thanks for all your kindness and comments!

Love to all!

A Family of Five!

I have been debating about whether or not to share this.
But if there's one thing about me.... I don't keep things inside!
I feel like I will explode. Like the information
is itching it's way out until I have to share!

So it all started about 2 months ago when I had a miscarriage.
During the ultra sound in the E.R. they found a dermoid cyst
on my one and only remaining ovary. (My other ovary was already
removed after being destroyed by the same kind of cyst.)
I was informed 5 wks ago, at a follow up appointment with my O.B
that the cyst would be slow growing and eventually destroy
my ovary and that it was impossible to remove and if attempted,
I would loose my ovary.

I informed her that my family was not complete.
She said that only I would know that and so pledged to help me
get pregnant and have one more baby.

To say I was emotional and heart broken would be correct.
I know I am blessed to have 2 children and a possible 3rd.
But to be told you are finished is hard.
I felt like a precious choice was taken from me.

So fertility was in full swing as I have been wanting another baby for a year now.

But God is good and his works mysterious.
I AM PREGNANT!
All on my own!
And I am sicker than a dog,
so I know this baby is here to stay.

So, if I am not myself, or you don't see me about.
Or worse yet, you happen to see me and I look like I got hit by a train..... I did, and I'm not.

But to say I am grateful beyond description is an understatement.
I feel that to try would be folly.

All I know is that the Lord knows all!
I am so excited for this new person who will come to our home around Christmas time.

It will be our Christmas miracle!

Baseball Season Spring 2010


I realize these are horrible action shots.
Isaac was awesome at baseball.
He loved it and we loved watching him!

Our stake put on free baseball!
We ate hotdogs, snow cones and cotton candy while we watched!

Life is super fun isn't it?

Happy 6th Birthday Isaac!
















Isaac thanking Justin for his gift!


I can't believe I am just now recording Isaac'g birthday! It was 3 weeks ago!
We had such a fun party with friends! Their favorite game was Red-Rover Red-Rover!

I can't believe Isaac is six! I am madly in love with this boy! He is so fun and so sweet!
He loves to "cuddle" with me. He asks me several times a day and of course I don't
turn him down.

He is such a good big brother. He is so patient with Easton and is such a good sharer!
He is doing so well in school and has such good friends!

I LOVE this BOY!
Just Diggin' up Dinosaur Bones!






This was an awesome birthday gift Isaac got.
We later assembled and painted it.

ARIZONA

This is going to be a short worded, picture-filled post.
Being gone for two weeks is blissfull, but catching up is horrible!
I don't think I even sleep at night. I keep one eye open, ready for the
insane day the next day!

So. Hyper speed post....


Isaac and his cousin Charlotte had a double birthday party.
Hence the 4 and the 6!

I left out the most important part of the trip. The Temple. We went to the open house of the new Gila Valley temple and words can't describe the feeling there and the way the people have sacrificed and truly made it their own. They are completely focused on it and it's wonderful.

My sisiter Leslie and her husband and little girl were sealed in the Mesa temple also. And again words fail me. She belonged there with us and I LOVE her.
I got to see a lot of my Aunts, Uncles and cousins as well and that was wonderful!

John and I got to go on a get away for 3 days! HEAVEN!
I love him. I love him. I love him.
Get the picture?

I know two things......
1. FAMILY IS EVERYTHING.
2. I want to go home worthily to my Father in Heaven.
(Just not now please.)
