Lost time

I will have to appologize for the lack of entries for the past few weeks. They have been very fun and very busy, but the main reason for the lack is that my camera broke a few weeks ago, so I didn't have any pictures. I finally decided that I would write down some of the memories and funny things that have happened over the past few weeks.

Andrew and Michelle were married in the Bountiful Temple on October 11, 2007. It was so wonderful to be able to go and share in that wonderful experiance with them. My fondest memoy is of the night before when both families were able to attend an endowment session as Michelle took out her endowments. My wonderful husband made is in the nick of time (ok they did hold the session for 5 minutes), and almost my entire family was there with their spouses. The only ones missing were Anthony and Sarah, who were flying in from California at the time. The day of the wedding was wonderful, and we enjoyed being with the family.

That night at the reception Ryan and I and our kids did leave a little bit early, because we were so exhausted. When we got home and got into bed I was excited to get a good nights sleep. Boy was I wrong... at about 12:00 that night Aby woke me up crying and yelling for me. She had to go to the bathroom, so I helped her off the top bunk and took her to the bathroom. Then I went back to be telling her to turn off the light when she was done. A few minutes later I hear crying and she is calling my name. I went in to see what was wrong, and there was poop in her underware, on the toilet, and her leg. Needless to say she had an accident. So I cleaned her up and the poop got some clean underware out, and disposed of the dirty ones. Then as I was tucking her back into bed Brooklyn started to cry, all the noise had woken her up.....so after a midnight snack and some rocking I finally made it back to my bed. Then around 1:00 in the moring I heard Kenzie crying, after finally deciding that she was not going to come into my room and lay down by me like she usually does I went in to check on her...she had thrown up all over her pillow and pajamas, and hair. So I clean up her bed gave her a quick bath, and rocked her back to sleep. At this point I was sure that nothing else could go wrong.....At 3:30 that same morning Kenzie threw up again, and I had to repete the process. After that I was able to sleep until Ryan was off for work. Interestingly enough he claims to have not heard any of the goings on that night.

The next morning Kenzie said she was doing good, so it was off to the sand dunes for a day of 4 wheeling with my family. We had a great time, and Aby made her first solo ride on one of the smaller 4 wheelers. She loved every minute of it and is excited to go back and ride again. Thank you to my family for letting us come and play with their toys.
