Slade's Blessing



We had such a great weekend all of my brothers and sister in laws came out to share Slade's blessing with us.

On Saturday we took the girls to the park as well as the rec. center to go swimming. They all had such a good time playing together. Then that afternoon we went up to Remember the Maine to have a dutch oven dinner and OH MAN was it good!!

I love when my family comes out we don't all get together that often so when we do it is such a fun time we all just hang out and be crazy.




We also had a HUGE scare this weekend my sister in law Evelyn was getting horrible headaches and couldn't really move her neck. Well she went to the Emergency Room, come to find out she had viral menengitis. The menengitis got into her brain as well as her heart. Her heart rate would'nt come about 40 and sometimes would drop as low as 30. The hospital ended up making the dicision to send her to Provo to a heart specilist. While in Provo the doctor told Evelyn if her heart rate continued to drop she would have to get a pace maker inserted into her heart. I'm happy to report Evelyn came home yesterday but she isn't out of the water yet. She has to continue to moniter her heart and hopefully it doesn't drop low again.

Oh the biggest news of all NO MORE BINKIE!!! Zoey decided 3 days ago that her binkies are "KA-KA" she has got to the point where she tears holes in her bink and I refuse to buy her new ones so she had 1 bink left and of course this bink got a hole. So Zoey brought the bink to me and said " Momma bink ka-ka" so I told her to throw it away and thank heavens she decided that she didn't like them anymore. I have been so lucky with her I have never had to wing her from anything, she has always decided on her own that she is ready like for instance the bottle one day she decided she didn't like them anymore so we switched to sippy cups. Also with her crib she decided she was ready for a big girl bed. I am truly blessed with her, she is such a good girl!!

I need to also update everyone on baby Slade, he is getting so big! Not chunky but just long. His 0-3 month clothing is high waters on him but fit his belly perfectly. So I went to 3-6 month clothes and its huge around the belly but fits perfect in length. I guess we have a basketball player on our hands (hehe).
