I had my ultrasound the other day. It was done at St. Marks Hospital. At the Fetal Diagnostic Center. I have been so nervous about how things have been going with this little babe. I know the genetic testing came back great but there can still be many problems that the testing does not pick up. Like neural tube defects and other defects along those lines. So I was so relieved when the ultrasound was done and I was reassured that he is developing nicely. They est. he is around 9 oz. Woo Hoo! Grow baby grow! I had my Mom come with for support since Matt could not be there. I didn't want to be alone if any thing were to be wrong. I even had the boys with me. They were great. The appt. was around an hour long. A long time to sit still. Good thing Grandma came with treats and a little surprise if they were good!



This is Cody and Landen giving thumbs up! Landen is still figuring this one out!!!

Cody's class was all boys! 8 in total!

Cody and his awesome teacher Mrs. Iacona


I forgot to post this last week. Cody had his graduation at preschool. It was so cute. Of course because my kid was in it!!! He had a little speaking part, a solo, and read a book. Again so cute! They had a dinner for all the families after but we had to leave as soon as the program was over because my car broke down and I had borrowed my brother-in-laws car. He needed to get back to Provo. So it was a crazy mad rush evening. I found out my car wasn't working about an hour before I had to go! Sweet! Good thing Justin came to my rescue! Thanks Justin!

Our weekend started out pretty bad. We were all sick. I even came down with bronchitis. I went to the doctor Friday morning because I had such a bad sore throat. I thought maybe I had strep. But no. Just bronchitis! So Friday and Saturday were a bust. Sunday I was going crazy and wanted to get out of the house so bad. So that afternoon we took the boys to Hoogle Zoo! We had a great time. The weather could not have been better. After the Zoo we stopped at This is the Place park. Very cool. So relaxing. I recommend you go if you have not. Then Monday it poured rain all day. So much for any plans anyone had! I was sure glad I went to the Zoo yesterday. We had a BBQ planned with our cousins and Trevor and Shari came too. We just had to move the whole thing indoors. We still had a great time. Always fun to get a 3 day weekend!

Yesterday was so nice. I loved it. We spent the whole day out side. We even went back out after Matt got home from work and watched the sun set. It was a beautiful 90 degree day. Today is to be 94! I love the warmth but not quite ready for it to be that warm! Yesterday morning I did have to take Landen in to the doctor. He was really sick all weekend. He has had flu like symptoms, goopy eyes, ear ache, coughing, barfing, fever and runny nose. Poor kid. He is now on antibiotics and today seems much better. He still played outside yesterday but you could tell he was not feeling well. He took two good naps so that was nice! Here are some fun pics of the boys playing outside in the sun!

Me, my mom and the boys took a trip up to Trolley Square to check out Pottery Barn Kids. They have some bedding I really want for the nursery. So we make all the effort to get up there with two boys who don't like to shop. Unless it is for them. Within five minutes of arriving Cody is crying and holding his hear. Suddenly he has an ear ache is sick and I know we need to go. He was fine all morning. We spend about 30 min. looking around. I didn't come all this way for nothing. Cody sat in he stroller the entire time crying or being really sad. While Landen was having a great time. He did freak out when it was time to go. I had to pick him up and leave the store with kicking and screaming! At least I got some fun pics! On the way home I called the Doctor and got him in that afternoon. He did have an ear infection. Gave him some Motrin. He was great the rest of the day! Whatever!!!!

I really have no idea how to do any of this cool blog stuff all you other girls do. I feel so dumb and really would love some help. If anyone would like to help me out just let me know. I would freakin' love you!!!!

Next, I had a fantastic Mother's Day Weekend! Yes, weekend. Matt spoiled me all weekend long. It was so nice. I love him so much. He is such an awesome guy. He puts up with me! I don't know many guys who would like to take that on!!! Anyway. It was a wonderful few days.

As far as my pregnancy goes...I had an appointment last week. Everything is still progressing nicely. I still feel awful most of the time. I am no longer taking Migraten for my sweet headaches. They are still killing me every day but at least I am not having the rebound headaches I was getting on that. Next he gave me Zofran for my sweet nausea. I hate this drug. It so made my life miserable. I was so tired I could not take care of my kids. I was angry all day. I think from not getting sleep. It gave me worse headaches. I just really hated my life that day. So I am just going to deal.

On to some really great news for Matt. He is finally driving again at work and working daytime hours. He has been hosteling at night for FedEx. They pulled several guys off their driving bids. Those with the least seniority. Matt happened to one of those guys. But he is also the top of those bottom guys. So he is the only one back on a driving bid! Woo Hoo!!!! Maybe we will see more of him these days!

And last but not least. Cody is graduating from preschool. I got him all registered for Kindergarten the other day. I still can't believe I will have a boy in school. Time just went so fast. I also got his school pictures back the other day. They turned out so cute. I love them. That Cody...He is so hot right now!!!!

Also here is a few random pics. The olive ones were just cute. We were just messing around. The other ones are of a walk we took up Prove Canyon on Mother's Day!

CoDy'S first real PaYiNg JoB!

So while we were in St. George grandpa Dan invited the boys to come down to his warehouse place. I guess that is what it is. He built it and now rents out the units. Anyway one of the businesses were getting a shipment in with huge crates and Dan was renting a forklift. He knows my boys and knew they would absolutely go crazy over seeing all this. So we showed up and the truck driver had just gotten there and hadn't even gotten the tarps off the trailer. Cody was sitting in the front seat of the car with me just watching this truck driver. The driver noticed Cody and came over to the car and said to Cody, "hey kid, you want a job?" Cody just sat there being shy and not sure if I would tell him it was okay. Once I told him sure go ahead he jumped out and Franz (the driver) put Cody to work picking up all the bungees that had been holding down the tarps. Cody was so excited. He did that so fast and Franz paid him 5$ for that. I was ready to jump out and get to work. Jeez! Then Cody just kept helping and helping. He wouldn't quit and Franz loved his help. In the end Cody made 10$. This guy was so impressed with Cody and his work abilities. He then had Cody fill a bucket of water for the truck engine. Then showed Cody the engine and the cab. They were a good team. Cody still has not spent his money. He is saving it. I am very proud of him. It was a great first job experience. Now he keeps asking me when can he operate a backhoe? Those are his exact words!

ApRiL rEcAp....

Once again I never update. I am sure you have all given up on me. I am just so freaking sick all the time. I just stay in bed and read and try to keep the boys happy. I am 15 weeks and really hoping this sickness junk will settle down. I got medication for all the migraines I was having but passed on the nausea meds. I just felt like I could deal with it. But it has been no fun. Anyway on to better things. So to try and recap the past month. Let's see....
1. Found out we are having a healthy little boy. We call him Crew as of now.
2. Cody had spring break so we packed up and headed for St. George. So fun! I am going back as soon as Cody gets out of school!
3. Made blue cupcakes with the boys. They begged and begged. I finally gave in.
4. Have read Work and the Glory all the way to volume 6. I love this series.
5. Been cleaning out the house getting ready for our annual garage sale with my cousins.
6. Sleeping as much as I can.
7. Working on the yard and my tan!
8. Making a baby!
9. Bought some fish for Cody and Lando. They named them Fish, Fishy and Orangee. Very Original.
10. Grandpa & Grandma Taysom came and spent a weekend with us. Spoiled us to death. Even watched the boys so Matt and I could go on a date. We went to the most delicious Cheesecake Factory!!!! YUM!!!!!!
So there you have it in a nutshell! I know it is very incomplete and I am sorry to anyone if I left out something very important that involved you but my poor brain just can't think right now. I really will work harder on posting more. This is a great way to keep a journal or scrapbook for that matter. So I really should enjoy this!!!
