pictures

So I took Lucas to Sears to get some pics done of him in a sweater that his Nana made for Zach and he out grew before getting pics. They turned out cute and I spent more that just the coupon cause she even got a cute one of Zach with him. So here they are I edited them and added cute stuff and stole their idea of a sketch with a pic.

Ahhh! Paypal sucks now

Okay I am soooo bugged I sold some stuff on ebay and the only payment I accept is paypal and it's been that way for years because it is/was the best, fastest and easiest way to pay and recieve payment well now they hold funds for 21 days including shipping! What the heck now sellers are expected to front the costs of shipping then get payment that stinks. I was on the phone with customer service for almost 10 mins before I got through and they said that is the new policy and it will stay that way unless you are a power seller with a positive rating over 100. Well I guess that means I need to sell and buy more on ebay quick to get my funds faster. :(

Zoe's Headshot

I fixed all the things commented on what do you think now?

Zoe is going to audition for Annie at Tuacan and needed a headshot. What do you think?

Lucas the Duck

Lucas has a few really cute outfits with hats and this is one. He fell asleep and I couldn't resist taking his picture.

Spaghetti!

Here is proof that we do feed Zach. The other night we had spaghetti and he got it all over his face and I had to snap a few pictures but that stinker actually started to put his hands up and said "No pictures please!". Silly boy is such a parot when it comes to stuff his Dad says.

Chucky Cheese

When we went to Orem to visit family between Christmas and New Years we went to Chucky Cheese. The kids loved it! Zoe had been when we lived in California but this was Zach's first time.


They loved this truck that went up and down and side to side on hydrolic lifts.

Zach riding the clock ride he freaked out at first then realized it was fun.

Smily Lucas

Lucas learned to smile and it is so cute!

Big Smiles at Christmas!

Christmas

Zachary fell asleep under the tree after opening all of his presents.

Snow fun in Enterprise!

We had a great christmas this year. We spent a few days before and after Christmas in Enterprise and then the kids and I went to Orem to visit other family and then Grandpa Vern stayed for a few days through New Years.

Sleeping Beauty

Zoe was Flora and a Goone in Center Stage's production of Sleeping Beauty Dec. 13th, 15th and 16th. She was a big hit as she was in the older cast (12-16 years old) and is the smallest kid in both casts (not youngest just the smallest). She did an amazing job! But I am not bias at all :)

Sorry

So I haven't posted in awhile sorry life has been crazy busy. I'll post a few posts at once to make up for it.

Sleepy baby

I love how cute and peaceful they look while they are sleeping. They have that commercal for pampers with the silent night song and all the cuties sleeping so I was inspired.

It's holiday time

So last night we got the tree out and decorated it. Our house is so small that we have a table top tree. I know all of us miss the times when we had a real tree.
It was so cute when we took the tree out of the box Zach saw it and said " A Christmas tree I lobe it sooo much." He is such a goof ball it is so cute when they can't say v's yet. Him and Zoe had so much fun decorating it.

When we were getting the tree stuff out I found a fun Rudolf nose and Zoe was posing for the camera she got the ears and after she was done posing it was Jerry's turn.

Dosen't he look so excited to pose for us!

Lucas' Holiday Pictures

I took some portraits of Lucas for the holidays and they turned out pretty cute I think. What do you think?

It's funny because I was looking at Zach's first Christmas photos and even though he was a month older they look so much alike.

Baby leggings

For a baby gift a friend gave Lucas some Baby Legs I think they are the cutest thing ever and since I couldn't really afford to go get more a friend of mine told me how to make some our of knee highs and the turned out so cute. The first pic is of the baby legs and the other two are of the ones I made out of knee highs and slipper socks. They are so easy with diaper changes and they keep him warm in just a onesie!

Lucas is already a poser isn't he cute!

Cutie Pie Lucas

So the other day I took some pics of Lucas sleeping and I have had a chance to play with them alittle and it turned out sooooo cute. I am bias though so you will have to decied yourself.

And that day a friend gave him baby legs for a gift they look so cute on him I had to share. Thanks Emily!

ZACHARY!!!!!!!!

Okay so any parent knows how long it takes a toddler to distroy something and I should know by now that it takes Zach even less time than most kids but I plead the distracted just had a baby thing. I left him in the living room watching a movie while I was on the computer for a short while and he brings me my cell phone..... in two pieces!!!!! He some how peeled the number pad off of it! I was so mad it took all I had just to put him on his bed in time out. The thing is he knew he was in trouble cause he started crying right after he brought it to me. He layed in his bed for his two mins and when I went to talk to him he was asleep. What a stinker! Any how so it if anyone tries to call and can't that's why.

Lucas

Okay so here are some details about Lucas' birth and his announcement. Which by the way was alot more difficult then I thought it would be to make thanks to Zach. He is such a stinker about pictures I can't get a good shot of him with anyone. He does okay pics by himself but if I try to get one of him and Zoe or all three it is sooooo hard so I take what I can get and after awhile just give up.

Okay so Lucas' birth...

Saturday I was in consistant labor they started 10 mins apart and grew to about three mins apart I went to bed expecting to wake from them and have to go in to the hospital. In the morning they were still just three mins apart but stronger. So my mom and I and the kids went to Wal-mart to walk and look at Christmas stuff while Jerry took the box spring off our bed so it is only three feet tall not four. After walking for over an hour and them not getting stronger or closer we went home and then labor kinda stalled. The contractions got further apart but stronger. At ten we went to the hospital and they checked me since I was only at one cen dialated and the contrations weren't close they sent me home. After being home for just a little while they got so strong I told Jerry we had to go back. We called my mom who had to drive from Cedar and waited for her to get here. Jerry was rubbing my back and using pressure points to relieve the pain. We got back to the hospital about three am and the contractions were consistant and very painful unfortunatly I wasn't dialating and they were very close together and very long and strong we decieded it was time for a c-section. At 7:35 am Lucas arrived via the operating room. The surgeon then told me what was going on there was alot of scar tissue on the inside of my uterus from my previous c-secs that was stopping him from dropping and that is why I wasn't dialating. After they did the tubel and sewed me up I got to nurse him. Lucas is a very good eater and is doing really well with nursing. After coming home we have only had two tummy problems, I am on a strict no dairy/soy diet and he is doing well. He has gained weight and is happy. Zoe and Zach love having him around and are great big sibs. They love to hold and kiss him all the time. We are adjusting to a fuller house and love having him around.

Lucas Jared Arrived!

I will give more details when I feel better but here is the blurp of it. Lucas Jared born 7:35am on Monday 11/3 weight 7 lbs 11 oz 20 1/2 inches long. Born via c-sec. We are at home recovering now!
