I used to be a pretty positive person- always looking at the glass half- full kinda lady. Things would go wrong and I would be its ok- things will work out. I’ve grown to miss that lady and really wanted to win her back. I want to be a happy positive influence in my kid’s lives. This year has gotten off on the wrong foot. It all started with me staying up all night New Year’s Eve with my sick Kobi. I litterly sat up all night since every time I tried to lie down he would cry. Luckily I was able to find a doctor that was open on New Year’s Day (why is it that there are more places closed on New Year’s Day then there is on Christmas- we need to get out priorities straight!) Poor baby had double ear infections. All 4 kids have been sick off and on- which usually means even less sleep for me. We aren’t even done with the first month of 2013 and this is what we have dealt with… both cars have broken down numerous times. And it’s not going to be a cheap fix. Luckily Skip’s older sister has a car we have been able to borrow- bless her heart. Evie has been waking up almost as often as Kobi does every night but of course it’s never at the same time- so sleep has become very rare. And when I’m tired it seems like nothing can go right.
Yesterday I had it. The tire was a little low so I stopped at the gas station to fill it with air. It wouldn’t hold the air so I decided we better just go home, instead of to the IHop breakfast I had promised the kids. As I pulled out of the gas station I got a flat tire-like coming of the rim craziness. It was 15 degrees out and I had all four kids in the car. Don’t worry my Dad taught all us girls how to change a flat and I have done it numerous times- just never with a car full of crying/yelling kids. The spare ended up being flat. And I started to cry. Eric was out with me and he said Mom you don’t need to worry- I will pray and everything will be okay. Thank Heaven’s for the faith of a child. I was able to get some air in it but I was afraid to drive it to far so no IHop. The world pretty much ended for Lily and she made sure to make plenty of noise about it in the form of high pitched screams. It sucked big time- for majority of the day. Once Skip got home I grabbed Eric and we took off to Joann’s (my happy place) to get a zipper. Eric is the most wonderful little man in the world.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

He knows when I am upset and tries his best to make me smile. He was telling me jokes and making me laugh. I looked over at him and said “Why was I lucky enough to get you for my son.” He looked at me with those big blue eyes and said “No Mom, I am the lucky one. Heavenly Father sent me to you because He knew that you would love me and take care of me the way I need to be.” My heart melted and again I cried. This time from the love of my 7 year old. My kids deserve the happy, positive lady I should be and can be. Things could be a lot worse than they are- so I’m going to count my blessings.

It was a first for all of us. Ash being the fun gal that she is said we all needed to dress up so we did! (The guy in the parking garage even commented on us going all out for it) While we were walking to our seats Lily told Ash that she felt like a real princess.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It was so much fun! I often feel sorry for my kids that we don't have the money to do a lot of fun stuff or go to fun places- which often makes me feel like a bad Mom. So watching Eric and Lily's faces during the performance made me feel like a million bucks! Lily was on the edge of her seat the whole time with a look of pure joy and awe on her face. Eric kept saying "that was amazing!" I know that material things aren't important in the grand scheme of things but it sure was great to be able to give my kids a fun night out. It did my heart good.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

To me it seems crazy that Lily is only 5...she has always seemed so much older. She had a friend over to decorate sugar cookies and play. Lily's choice for dinner was "panda noodles" aka top raman. We had Grammy and Aunt Ash over for cake and ice cream. Lily got some awesome presents. One being a pair of rainboots that she wore to bed. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

And one cute baby!
The houses where we live are a little spread out and the kids were the ones that called it quits- Skip and I were all for hitting up more houses but the kids begged us to take them home.

Skip's siblings were going to be in town so we went ahead and blessed Kobi on Sept 30th. It was bittersweet day- knowing that this is our last little baby, and the last baby blessing we would be doing. I think knowing that is what took me so long to get Kobi's blessing outfit made (I was putting on snaps the night before at 10:30)<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Kobi's blessing was beautiful. I think the thing that stood out to me the most was that Kobi was blessed with the ability to love and see people for who they are-Children of God. The whole time Skip was giving the blessing all I could feel was how very special this little boy is and how much we are loved by Heavenly Father. Kobi is a great blessing in our lives and I feel very blessed to be his Mom. He makes me smile daily. He is the perfect addition to our family.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It was quite the long day becuase contractions kept starting and stopping. I was on potocin and having contractions every 2 minutes but Kobi was not moving down and my water wasn't breaking on it's own. Once my water was broken it was only about 1 1/2 hours and he was born. He is a big boy weighing in at 9 lbs 7 oz and 21 1/2 inches long. He doesn't look like he weights that much because he is so long. He is an absolute doll and we are all loving him very much.

Evie is so cute with Kobi. She puts her cheek on his and says I Love You Baby at least 5 times a day, and every time she gets to hold him she giggles.
I just realized we don't have a single family picture at the hospital or a picture of Skip or I holding Kobi when he was first born- I guess that makes us kinda lame!
We are so excited to have this little guy with us. Our little family now feels complete.

The other day Eric got really mad at me. Mad enough that he packed a suitcase and left in search for a better life. It took until lunch time before he finally did walk out the door because I kept stalling him. Lily was being a very helpful sister by asking him how much longer it was going to be till he left and bring him things to add to his suitcase. I asked him how long he was going to be gone and his reply was a week to a month. His main reason for leaving was that I was a mean Mom (I was making him clean his room) and that I didn’t give him a good life. He made me cry. (Remember I’m filled with all sorts of pregnant emotions!) He would go into his room and then come out and tell me something funny. Here are my favorites… “Mom I packed a picture of you in case I start to forget you” and “Mom I know you don’t want me to leave but I did ennie minnie minni mo and it landed on leave so I have to leave” He almost walked out the door after that one but I told him that he had to wait till uncle Taber and Aunt Kim stopped by on their way out of town. He asked them if they would give him a ride to Uncle Hyrum’s house but they said no. So then he tried to get me to drive him there. I kept bring up fun things that were going to happen that week and the next week and told him to bad he was going to miss it all. His time frame of moving out started at a month…went to a week…then 3 days…then he would be back by bed time.

He headed out the door and up the hill. I let him get to the top of the hill before I went after him. He was bright red and sweating and more than happy to get into the car and come home.

We finally got to take the kids camping this summer. With Skip and I never having a day off together it has made it hard to do anything as a family. So we ended up heading up into the mountians later than we had planned- making me very pregnant at the time. Needless to say I got zero sleep that night- which is why we only stayed one night. But the kids had a blast and that's what's important.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The water was cold but the kids didn't mind at all. Lily was caught holding Eric under water. When I asked her why she said she was just trying to see if Eric could breathe underwater like Mermaids can...

We ended up bringing 3 of the fish home because the hook got caught in the fish to far down to take out. Eric thought we got to bring them home and put them in a fish tank- so he was a little mad when Skip killed them and said we were going to cook them and eat them.

We are trying to teach the kids about money- and the fact that we have yet to find a money tree. Eric has had some legos that he has wanted to get, so he asked if he and Lily could have a cupcake stand to make some money. They did a great job. In about 2 hours they sold almost 4 dozen cupcakes and made $25 bucks! Eric woudl yell clever phrase like "get your cupcakes here," "one cupcake 2 quarters" "hey stop and by a cupcake!" If I ever have my own cupcake shop- I know who I'm going to stick out front pulling the customers in! As soon as the cupcakes were sold (or in this case-eaten by the sellers...) we headed to toys-r-us. The kids were in heaven getting to spend their own money on what ever they want.Emhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13441997604900807687noreply@blogger.com0
