Ear Rings?

Kendall is a girl. Not just a girl though. She can be really girly or just as rough and tumble as the boys. In the mail today we got beads from Grandma O. She was so excited to make what?
Ear rings!

Those were the first words out of her mouth. I want you to make me some earrings. Well I talked her into a bracelet instead, and found some clip on ear rings to put on. She was so excited about them even though they hurt a little. She wouldn't even let me take them off to go to bed. We did end up taking them off for the night eventually but it was a little bit of a fight and she had to have them back on first thing this morning. She is also quite the little diva when it comes to taking her picture. She has to pose just right and then she wants to see the picture. Then she told me no take my picture with me looking that way.

Here's the lastest

Well let's see, where to start. First off, I apologize for being such a slacker. But, we are moving this weekend. TO a bigger place on an acre. We really wanted something bigger with a yard. This place is a manufactured home, with a nice yard with a little grass and bigger bedrooms for the kids. Ryan is still home with Amaya, who by the way is growing by leaps and bounds. I can't believe she is almost 9 months old already! She is talking up a storm, nothing that makes much sense except Mama. And such a personality! Sebastien is doing great. Growing like a weed too. He is taller than me and wearing size 11 shoe this year!! He is very active in Scouts and having a great time. His attitude has improved a ton, he is enjoying school and doing very well. He will be transferring to a brand new school, just opened this year. He is excited for that. It's still in the Vail district but a new school. Work for me has been a bit of a struggle, the Doc I was working with and I just didn't groove. I have been re-assigned to another Doc and thing's a much better. All in all we are doing really well. Fat and happy!! It is so much fun to watch Ryan get to be a Daddy and Sebastien really enjoys his sister. A chance we are all gratefull they got to experience. We feel like we've gotten a second chance. We are looking forward to seeing Desi and Justin and the boys next month. I think that about covers it. Hope all are well. We miss ya!!!!

Here are some pictures of Trey from when he was a couple of days old because all the ones from the hospital are with Ben in Houston on his laptop. So this will come really late but oh well. Here comes the birth story so if you don't wanna know don't read any further. I went into the hospital on the 28th for my scheduled induction which was 8 days before my due date. We got there and the nurse got the pitocin started and my Dr. broke my water all at around 9 am. I was already dilated to a 4+ and 90% thinned, and the baby had started dropping weeks before. When we got there I wasn't having any real contractions so the pitocin just got things kick started. Ben and I had sat around until around 11:30 am when he decided to go and get something to eat and would be right back I was fine with that because the contractions still weren't very consistent but getting there. With in 5 minutes of him leaving my contractions were about 2 minutes apart very consistently so I texted him and told him to hurry because I wanted the epidural soon. After another 10 minutes and he was still not back I called him and told him to hurry well he never got the text from earlier until that moment. So I paged by nurse and asked for the epidural and Ben walks in the door. The Dr. comes in to put the epidural in and he gets it in and working right at about 12:15 pm and the nurse decides to finally check me again and see if there is even any progress from when I had gotten there that morning. When she checked me I was at a 6 and as she was checking me I hit a contraction and went from a 6 to a 9 in one contraction. The nurse couldn't believe it so she went and wrote something down and I told her I was feeling a lot of pressure and so she came and checked me a gain and I was complete and he was crowning. At that point she got the nurse at the front desk on the phone and wanted my Dr. now luckily she was walking down the hall at that moment. She came in and I pushed twice and Trey was born 19 minutes after my epidural was put in and working.

Trey's blessing

You will have to forgive me my post will be very out of order I am trying to play catch up of the last 2 months. This last Sunday the 19th we were able to give Trey a name and a blessing at church. We were so blessed to have daddy be able to come home for that and for all of our wonderful family who was able to come and support us as a family. We missed those who could not be there very much. We have had a very busy weekend and trying to get all the daddy time we could because he was only home for 4 days. Ben gave such a wonderful blessing to our little boy and it was so nice to see him up there with both of our Dads and my Grandpa Tucker who was able to make it down and also some uncles who made the trip down for the special occasion. I am so grateful to have the gospel of Jesus Christ in my life everyday and to teach our children of his love and sacrifice for us all.

Kindergarten

This past Monday was Brody's first day of Kindergarten!! I can't believe he is already old enough to go to school. Shelby was also trying to talk me into letting her go with Brody. He was so excited and could not wait that he had a count down going for when school started for him. It was really nice to be able to have his daddy be home for his first few days of school and to be able to give him a fathers blessing the night before his big day. We are so grateful for a daddy who holds the priesthood and is worthy of using it. Here are some pictures of the big boy who is also a poser.
