boooo for blogger...

i tried to freaking upload photos on this damn thing and they said that i couldn't due to an internal error.... that the FUSS!!!! if anyone knows what that means or how i can get around it... please let me know... i want to post some photos of my little man!!

my sweet little Croix boy!!

ok ok... im sorry that it has taken me so long to update... but this being a new mom thing is a little rough.... 

Croix was born on CHRISTMAS... yes i know he will probably hate it later... but i think that it is pretty special that God picked him to be born one Jesus' birthday... but if Croix gets mad... we will celebrate a half birthday or something.... my water broke that morning... and after 7 hours of labor and an emergency C-Section, 4 hours of triage for Croix later (that damn chord wrapped around his delicious little neck) he was out and happy.... and he is amazing.... he is the sweetest little boy on the planet.... i love him more then life....

also have i mentioned that i have the best friends and family on the planet.... my family was there in the hospital and they all skipped Christmas... they came back to the hospital in groves and they were all there to share their love and support for Ryan and me... and of course the Croister!!!  we have had endless dinners brought to our house as well as gifts by the millions and visitors.... for all of you out there that have been so great to us... thank you... THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart (which i think grew about 100 times on christmas.... ha just like the grinch... but i swear i am not now nor have i been grinch like!!!)  Thank you to all of the people that love us and have gone out of their way in this busy holiday season as well as braved this horrible weather to come and see our new family!!! i love you all so much... Thank you!!!! 

look at what we did

The couches are sold now and gone.... Thank you Torrey and i hope that you still love them!!!!

Below you can enter into my sons room:

It was a lot of work... and that sweet Ryno did an awesome job painting.... and he didn't complain once... he was just happy to do this project for his son.... he is going to be such a good dad....  and here is a photo of me and my boy.... 32 weeks prego

Its a little shaky but that is what you get for turning the flAsh off of your camera!! i have a wonderful shower this saturday that my amazing mom and sister are throwing for me... the good old family shower... i am sure that you will get a lot more non shaky photos of my bump then!!!

FOR SALE

So here we have a beautiful love seat... and there is also a matching over-stuffed chair..... those are vacuum marks... done worry... it is microsuede and practically brand new... i bought them from Zions Bank.. when they were eliminating a department.... i was super excited about them brought them home, SURPRISED my husband... only for him .... to hate them! now Ry is a very easy going guy... and i had to fight off a couple of people at the bank in order to get them... but he is not a fan... something about the riviots.... but i dug them and still do!!!

so i decided to sell them.... it is the loveseat and the chair.. both microsuede... they were only used in a department for 6 months and then the department was dissolved... i am only asking what i have put into them so we are going to sell the both of them in a packaged deal for 400.00.... any takers...???? if anyone is interested... or if you know anyone that is interested please let me know.... they are super cozy and you almost fall asleep instantly... if you snuggle up in the crease you just get lost!!!...  the chair looks identical... only half of this... haha!! if you would like to see photos of that just ask and ill post... but i figure... you get the point!!!

Thank you.... it will be sad to see these go... but i want to share their wonders with someone else..... they are quite the find!!!

CHUCK EEEE CHEEEESSEEEEEEesese

Please try not to look how fat i have gotten... pregnancy will do that to you....!!! HAHAH!!

ok so i just turned the big 25!!!! i was kind of a hard one for me ill be honest... but i figured what better way to spend a quarter of a century mile stone as to go to the chuck-e-cheese!!! holler.... layton just got one... and it was defiantly an experience...

I thought that it would be new and not all spit covered and gross.... i was only half right.. if i can make a suggestion.... moms... go during the week

 and go during lunch time... not dinner... bad bad baaaad!!! idea!!!!!

it wasn't all bad... Jamie came with Ry and Mills.... 

they had a blast..... Jord and Ry came with MAC... 

my dear friend 

Kellie came cause she is a damn good sport!!! and of course my family came... my mom was in LOVE with the WACK-A-MOLE... 

even though she was having a bad night with her joints... and i think whacking all those moles didn't help out either.... oh and Livie and Gene were there.... i have not yet mentioned that LIVIE AND GENE moved to Utah!!!1 Yahoo!!!! it is great to have your only sib. living in the same state as you again!!!!

It was a good day.... i had a whole bunch of people i love there and next year... it will be better cause i will have my son....

Wanted for MURDER

ok... here is the thing... i don't know where i got it.... My father... he can grow anything which stems from his parents that have a massive beautiful farm.... my mother.... she has the most tomatoes that you have ever seen growing in her back yard.... and she got that from her mother that again.... has a MASSIVE garden and farm in her back yard... IN THE DESERT!!!! 

so... where i got my black thumb... my tainted awful horrible black rotting thumb from is anyones guess..... 

my mother and i ride the train to work in the morning (i swear this story relates) we were on the front runner one day, and my mom made a wise crack about how she hated her job... and she was just going to quit and be a farmer and live off the flat of the land.... i said hold on to you panties Lenny..... you are not cut out to be a farmer... and we were sitting next to this lady... that was a little odd and scraggily... but some how clean... as clean as she could be.... we (mom and me) thought that she was alseep (hold on... i swear it relates) she decides to add in her two farm lovin cents about it all, she says "dont knock the farming life, it is a very good living" my mom trying to stay some what corgil to our new conversating friend... says "oh im not knocking it... but i just wouldn't be good at it... i can't grow a thing... (LIAR!!)" our flat of the land friend says..." Well then you just need to find God."...

....

......

i learned a valuable lesson that day... when talking on the train... never assume that people are asleep... you never know when they will throw in one of their God blessed gardening gloves of wisdom...

in closing i need to say something to my victims... may they rest in peace, and im sorry... i tried hard... and im sorry... next time i will give a plant to someone with capable hands...!!!
