Sweet baby girl

Sweet little girl. Mykah your MY sweet little girl. Here is why love,

Today the Ensign was stewn in with the bills,junk.. Lucky day. I love when it comes! I sat down with you in one arm and my read in the other. You of course found something more interesting to do(pull on moms pant buttons) While I started to see what great articles where in store this month. Being the sneaky thing you are, you snuck up and would NOT leave my magazine alone! I was getting so annoyed! When I realized something. Silly me. I pulled you on my lap and started to show you all the pictures. My sweet girl your face got that grin when you saw the ones of your heavenly father. I thought uh, maybe I am being biased. The next page had a large picture of the savior. While I was showing you, you bent down and gave him a kiss. That Mykah is why you are my sweet girl.

Birthday Whoo-pla!

Well sadly my friends I am not posting about my super fun paddleboat experience. We got to the lake at 10 mins till 7, the boats close at 7. Bummer.. I was actually pulling Todds arm to get to the boats;) So we went and got ice cream(which is always GREAT). Sunday night all of our family came over and celebrated with cake & icecream. It was so fun to have both sides together!

Todd's Day

Todd,
Today you turn 26. Wow your kinda getting old..guess I better keep my mouth shut though seeing how I am not still 19 like I think I am.. I want to make this a special day just for you. I think your extra sweet, seeing how you chose a date with me instead of a camping trip;) So I in turn will be kind. I will go wherever you choose! Yep WHEREVER! Even those paddle boats at Tempe Lake you have always wanted to do, that I always say NO too.( I am secretly afraid of... What if my legs get tired in the middle of the lake? What if my boat has a leak? What if I have to go pee when I am in the middle of the lake?.. I really could go on..) So make it count after all you only turn 26 once! Love,
Your Best Friend & her trusty sidekick( mnbn )She typed "i luv u"


This was last year at Christmas. We had gone to visit my grandpa fetter. You were so kind to remind mom to keep her eyes OPEN for the picture! oh I thought it was great how like only 3 of us are looking.. maybe ya shoulda helped out the rest of us!

Welcome to motherhood...

Mykah and I were/are sick.. together. Welcome to motherhood! I have never felt so crappy and my poor little girl.. I cant imagine how she feels! This was my first time dealing with feeling like I wanna die/ having to take care of a sick baby. My hat goes off to moms all over! I never imagined how HARD it would truly be. Tearing yourself out of bed feeling like your gonna die and knowing you have to give 100% to a little life completley dependent on YOU! Luckily my sweet husband helped me out a ton! Taking her downstairs at 2am..she WouLD NOT go back to bed, just so I could sleep. Giving us both dinner, entertaining roo.. all the good stuff. Man I am not gonna lie this momstuff is hard work! Lets just say this has cured my baby hunger;)

Nursing Woes...& Huge belly

Nursing. Oh how I loved it. I am proud to say I made it 9months plus. We had lots LOTS of issues at first. I will spare you and not name them... Oh heck I will its gonna get graphic/ honest so beware! OK first we had latching issues, I think about everyone who came to the hospital knows this or saw this(embarrassing now).;) I got thrush not once not twice but 3 times. I pumped blood on several occasions.. not just a little like 2 oz worth!! yucky! Got several blisters and mastitis.. Not to mention what my "nursing tools" look like now!! But I was so proud for making it through.. I loved the time it gave Mykah and I am sad to see it end..On the upside I lost that extra weight nursing held on to for dear life.. AND now... Ta DA! I can fit in my skinny jeans!! Oh now if we can figure out this extra skin.. ALL this extra skin! Not that any of you care! I just had to tell someone!

(This was my ginormous belly..I had no clue what I was getting into!!)

Claim 2 Fame: 8 Babies+6 kids= 14 kids

Dear Nadya,

What the hell were you thinking? 6 kids, pregnant with 8? At any point in time did you maybe think enough was enough? Seriously, now your asking for donations? Your poor kids are going to suffer because of your actions. That is simply not fair. They should make a law cause of you and it should go like this;

If a person is collecting disability they cant undergo pricey fertility treatments.(how are you paying for these??) A person cannot have 14 children if they have no job, no home, no father, and pretty much NO way of supporting them or their children. Well obviously I am not a law maker.. But seriously? I normally try not to judge, however this is just insane! You are in grad school so I hope you get a kick-a job, oh and it wont hurt to marry rich ;) Just my two cents I think 14 is plenty..... By the way, you way topped Angelina Jolie.

I know this letter is kinda ornery, but I am venting!

Mykah's mini Adventure

Catching leaves on the trampoline... Trying to eat them... almost succeeded..... mom saw....ruined my fun. she always does.Mykah's view.(still not giving up my snack!)

Checked out the garden daddy planted. Tried to pick the blossoms off the almond tree.

Runuculas, mommy's favorite. So pretty, tried to pick one for mom....

Petting the guard cat. You cant see my face, its the "I cant believe my mom is letting me pet this beast!" face! She is so cool!

Now that was a whole 15 minutes.. what next mom?
