The Move.

Yup we got sick of paying 1000 dollars for a 1000 sq. ft apt. We had a hard time finding anything cheeper than that. Unless we wanted to move to a bad part of town. So we are now living with my parents. We hope to save up enough money this year to make a down payment on a house. I am so grateful that my parents have allowed us to invade their home for a little while. Things are going great so far. Rich and I are staying in my old bedroom. My parents have a big unfinished storage room where Rich built the boys a room on one side. I will post pictures later. It's wierd being back home...especially now with a husband and 2 kids. But we are having fun, and Aidan loves living here.

Exam results!!

On Nov. 20 I had my last exam for my massage therapist license. It went really well. I passed with a 92!!! I am so excited to be done with school, tests, and all the headaches of trying to do it all with 2 children. I am eager to start working part time. I just joined a gym and found out that they have a male massage therapist there and they may be looking to higher a female massage therapist. Yay!!! I just need to get into contact with the other therapist. I could also work at my school, they have a clinic where I practiced as a student, but they also have graduates working there for those clients who would rather have a licensed therapist. The owner of the school just passed away, she was driving up from another location in Georgia. Traffic came to a stop, there was a tractor trailor behind her who couldn't stop and smooshed her car into an accordian, her car blew up. She was a nice lady. The students and staff will miss her.

HOORAY!!

As many of you know, I have had some trouble with Camerons sleeping/eating habits. He still likes to eat every 2 hours. Even at night. Plus he doesn't sleep well at night. So for 14 w eeks I have only been getting 4-5 hours of sleep a night. He woudn't eat formula so I have been strickly breastfeeding him. Today I decided enough was enough...I can't keep living like this. It took around 1 1/2 hrs to make him eat formula. After that I nursed him to "reward" him, and then he slept for almost 5 hrs!!!! After his nap I fed him formual again, and he didn't have a problem with it. Yay I am so thrilled that this worked. I hope it will work tonight when I really want to be sleeping. I am still going to breastfeed him, I just want to be able to give him formula if I need to. Cameron now weighes around 14 1/2 lbs. He is bigger than 75% of the babies his age. Such a big boy. He is doing well and is now rolling over onto his stomach every once in a while. He always gets his left arm stuck under him and can't pull it out. Hopefully he will learn how to get it out of the way before rolling over. hehe. Anyways I just wanted to write to say how proud I was of him for eating formula.

What a week.

This might be a little to much information for some of you so proceed with caution. Wow this has been a crazy week. I am glad that is it over. Last Wednesday I woke up to feed Cameron in the night as usual, but my right breast was extremely sore and engorged. It was so painful. I fed Cameron and then grabbed an ice pack to bring to bed to sleep. A couple hrs later when Cameron woke me up to feed him again, I felt like I had the flu. I went to the doctors later that day, and they told me I had Mastitis. http://www.babycenter.com/0_mastitis_251.bc go to this website if you want to know more about it. Anyways I was to take antibiotics 4X/day, and was told to get lots of rest, and should feel better within the week. I am so upset that I got sick, I had started running and was feeling great.


Rich's Grandmother was rushed to the hospital that same day and was going into surgery due to an enlarged aorta, and other complications. While in surgery they noticed the aneurysm she had a few years ago had started leaking and had filled up her left side. After surgery she was stable but sedated to help with the recovery process. She seemed to be doing good until Thursday night when they had to increase her oxygen level. By Friday morning it was up to 100%. WE were informed she had no chance of living. She passed within minutes. She was such a wonderful lady. She was 83, her husband passed years ago from Cancer. she had 8 children, 25 grandchildren, 25 great grandchildren and 1 great great grandchild. She had a wonderful sense of humor and could make anyone smile. We will miss her a lot but we are glad she is with her husband again and she is no longer in pain.

So I have not rested. We were at the hospital for many hours and with the viewing and the funeral we have been non stop since last Wednesday. People kept telling me that I should go home and rest but I didn't want to leave anyone especially Rich. I wanted to be there to support everyone.

Grandma Wright you will be missed!!

Happy Halloween!!

Aidan and Cameron were able to wear their costumes 4 times this year. Once to get their pictures taken, 2 halloween parties, and of coarse, trick-or-treating. Aidan had so much fun trick-or-treating and didn't want to stop. He loved knocking on all of the doors and saying"trick-or-treat." He always said thank-you. What a good boy!!




Cameron was a puppy. This is a picture of Rich's mom holding our little "puppy"

"It's exhausting being a puppy!"

Camerons' Blessing

Cameron was blessed on Sunday October 12th. It was a special day. I also sung in Sacrament meeting with the choir and Ryan was ordained. It was nice to have those three things on the same day, while my Grandparents were in town.


This is a cute picture.....if only my eyes were open.

After sacrament meeting we took some pictures with Grandma and Pappy, because they had to leave. But we were happy to have them there for the blessing.

Both Grandparents with their Grandsons.
c The plan was to take the rest of the pictures after church..but as you can see Cameron was fussy, so most of the pictures that were taken are only on my Moms camera. My Grandma crochet (yikes I don't think that's how you spell it) that blanket for his blessing. It is such a beautiful blanket. Plus Cameron had a blowout diaper and we had to change him out of his suit.



Just hanging out enjoying each others company.

Apple picking and the Corn maze!

My Grandma and Grandpa were in town from Utah. Here are the Highlights of some of the things we did.

Ryan and Aidan at the beginning of the corn maze. Soon after this was taken they took off running into the maze and we didn't see them for a good amount of time. Oh how Aidan loves his "Ry" (Ryan)
Mom and I some how got seperated from Rich and Dad. We eventually caught up with them, Aidan and Ryan.

Aidan had so much fun in this maze. He was laughing and giggling the whole time. He loved running, and telling us which way we should go. His knees were a little scratched up from falling but he didn't seem to mind.

After we finished Aidan wanted to go in for round two. Grandma and Grandpa stayed in the car with Cameron while he slept. We have since found out that the guy who owns this land was soon busted for growing mariguana in his field. So we are sorry to say we supported his "wrong doings"

Enjoying a freshly picked apple.

Cameron's first apple...too bad he couldn't eat it.


Yay for wagon rides!!!



Bad lighting but I am holding Cameron in a carrier.

One of my beautiful Grandmas.

Riddle time

Since the software for my Pictures isn't working.... I thought I would do a little riddle. Well it's not really called a riddle, I don't know what you would call it.

Pick a number between 1-10

Multiply your answer by 10

subtract 6 from that number

Now take the last digit of that number and match it with the alphabet (1=a 2=b and so forth)

Think of a country that begins with that letter

take the last letter of that country and think of an animal

Take the last letter of that animal and think of a color

Cameron is getting big!

Cameron had his 2 month check up today. He now is now 13lbs 5 oz, and 24 3/4 long. He is in the 75% for his age. Unfortunately he had 3 shots today :( He let out these huge cries that I have never heard from him before. It just broke my heart. He was also hungry so it made it 10 times worse. He calmed down pretty fast. That made me happy. He has been great for the rest of the day so far.

He is smiling a lot lately and can now follow people or objects around the room. He is cooing as well it is so cute. Aidan is still in love with him and has upgraded from calling him baby to mamron. Way to cute. I was going to post some pictures, but unfortunately I am having issues with my software...I am not sure why. Hopefully I can get things figured out.
