Dr. Appointments



Can i just say that my life is scheduled around doctor appointments.....geesh...
actually its not really a pain at all i just wanted to complain a tiny bit. i have 3 -4 appointments that are all here in the next 2 weeks or so....i have one for me and the rest are for Tavan. He had his pre op appointment with Dr. Huffaker and we will go in on the 18th to get tubes (yay). For now we are still on the daily antibiotic and doing well! Tavan is getting so big...i cant believe it has already been almost 9 months.... sniff sniff....I love my little one!

TEXAS


We recently got back from our trip to Texas, where we had a blast! it was a much needed vacation where we got to spend time together and with my parents! It was pretty warm down there...but it wasnt quite what i expected. i could have handled the heat but Ricky was dying!! haha he doesnt like the humidity.... it was warm but there were plenty of ways to keep cool. I could live in Dallas but Ricky said no...hahah it was funny...and just to address the issue...yes i did not exactly dress modest while down there...it was a personal choice that Ricky and i came to and i do not regret it. most people know that i am pretty sensitive to the heat and sun and there was no way i was going to be wearing 3 layers....it just wasnt going to happen, sorry to those who get upset over it.
on another note....we had so much fun in Texas....we arrived Thursday evening and went to dinner with my parents before we headed to their place. Friday we went to Hurricane Harbor (six flags water park) it was fun and a perfect way to beat the heat....i dont have any pictures from that day (sorry). Saturday we went to the Rodeo in Fort Worth...it was Rickys first Rodeo and he enjoyed (I still cannot believe he had never been to one before....there is a pretty good one in Vernal...which is only 45 min away...and after living here his whole life he had never been)
Sunday we took a slow day...Ricky and I got to go on a date to the movies while the parents watched Tavan. Monday we took Tavan to the zoo for the first time...It was pretty fun to watch Tavan examine everything, and i will admit it...i love zoos!!! i love to see all the animals and how unique and pretty everyone is! plus i got to see a Zebra! on Tuesday we packed up and came home...it was an allday affair to get home. When i woke up i didnt feel to hot and it continued throughout the day and now today (wednesday) i do not feel well at all and am running a fever. :( i am pretty bummed about it because i have so much to do (laundry) so i can feel "at home" and get back on my schedule but i am pretty much just resting and trying to get feeling better. hopefully it passes soon. hope y'all enjoy the pictures! Thank you for a wonderful visit dad! we all enjoyed it so much! can't wait for our next one! xoxo

cake


so i know this is not the greatest pic because it was taken while camping out in the sunlight and half eaten...but this is my cake that i attempted for the 4th....i thought for my first time ever making a cake like this (meaning something other than just a plain ole cake) i did pretty well...i was impressed and it was super yummy!

upset

so for the 4th of July we went camping Friday night with my family out in the American Fork canyon. on the way my phone was dying and since i had no charger it died. :( it really didn't matter because once in the canyon you have no service anyway. so we left my phone in the truck and when we got home we assumed it was still in the truck...welp...it wasn't. nor was it in our luggage. we looked everywhere before we returned Mikes truck back to him....(father in law) so now i have no phone :( its stressful i never realized how attached i was to it until now. Luckily we have insurance on our phones so i will be getting a replacement only thing is..the phone i have (which is a new phone as of 2010) they are no longer making...so i get a completely different phone now.....no biggie....the only part that i am so upset about is...all my pictures and contacts are gone! i had a bunch of pictures of Tavan as a newborn and pictures that i have no other copies of on there..grrrr.... so if i used to have your number and you still want me to have it...you should probably shout me an email with it! thanks!
