Family, family, family!

4 Generations!

The last couple of days my Grandma Carol and Uncle Ron have been in town from California! It has been the great having them here to visit! Grandma Carol and Uncle Ron got to meet Skyler for the first time. They have seen tons of pictures of him, thanks to Aunt Nicki but it was great for them to actual meet him! It had been great because my mom has had family dinner every night that they have been in town! MMM, yummy food! They left last night and it's to bad that they live so far away that we cant see them more, because they are such great company to be around! Love you guys and hope to see you soon!!

Skyler got his tubes



This morning Skyler went in for his surgery to get the tubes put in his ears. We took him to the ear specialist on Thursday and they did say that he has fluid behind both of his ears, which is causing pressure on his ear drums so he can't hear. They also did a test to see if it was permanent damage on his hearing and there is not. They scheduled his surgery for 7:30 am on Monday but we had to be there at 6am. I was kind of worried about how early we had to wake him and then how long we had to wait until the surgery was because we could not feed him anything after midnight. When we got there Skyler was really excited for some strange reason, It was like he knew what was going on. But, he did so good threw out the whole thing. Before they started getting his vitals, weight ect, they gave him this stuff called "happy juice." It makes it to where Skyler didn't care that he was getting poked at. He was really funny on it because he would just sit and smile holding a box of crayons the nurses gave him, almost like he was very high! The surgery only lasted about 15 mins, they said the hardest part of babies come of of surgery is the anastasia. But the nurses said that Skyler was one of the best babies they have seen coming out of it. He hardly cried!
Shh.. I'm hidding

Getting ready for my tubes!

On our way home we stopped and got Skyler some pan-a-cakes, He loves them and was hungry!! It's kind of cute because I think that he likes this new hearing thing because he walked around the house after we got home, making all the noises/grunts he normally makes so he could hear them. Lil Munch, we are so proud of you and can't wait for you to start talking up a storm!! xo

Summer BBQ's

This is my favorite part about summer is the BBQ'S, all the yummy food and company! Last weekend Pam and John invited us over for a BBQ and we got to hang out with Aj, Brittany, Jameson, Keith, Mel and their new baby Austin! It was a lot of fun! Skyler had so much fun just running all over the yard, chasing after his ball! This weekend we went to a beer tasting party/BBQ. Jerry and Mer sure know how to threw a Party!
Skyler and Daddy play ball-
This ball aint got nothing on me!
Jameson's all packed and ready to go! (it was cute because he crawled in there himself!)
I love this man! xoxo
My silly boys!
Aj, Jameson, Drew, Skyler, Keith and Austin!
Skyler and Jameson playing. ( I don't know if they know how to play together yet, but it's funny to watch them try. Skyler would steal Jameson binky, then Jameson would grab onto Skyler and try to get him to come closer. The best part was when Skyler started to push Jameson around in his walker. Jameson did not like that so much because of how fast he was going.. but it was cute for the moment it lasted!)
To bad summer is almost over!

Skyler wants to be a dog!



Yes, my son has some weird thing with the dog's cages. He will open them, get inside and sit! Now he has started to open and close the door while inside and taking his toys in the cage with him! I guess he thinks the dogs have fun doing it, he should enjoy it too! What a crazy lil boy!

Jamaica!!!

We left on Thursday to go to Jamaica for our really good friends wedding! It was the best trip ever! Except for that we almost missed our connecting flight in Dallas, but our baggage for sure missed it! It got to us the next day! Oh, well what can you do?? (when you are pissed that you don't have luggage and you have a free bar...hmmm) But, it was a great trip. Drew and I got to relax by the pool, play on the beach, get massages, and even went shopping one of the days. It was a great trip but we also missed being home. Grandma Crazy took care of Skyler, and it was said when I did call and he heard my voice all he did was cry. So, I know he missed us and we missed him!! And uncle Darin took care of Allie and Gator, from what I understand they give him a run for his money!! Sorry Darin!! But thank you to everyone that helped us out so we could go on our trip!

Passing time, in our hour and half long bus ride!

8 years!


Today, Drew and I have been together 8 years! And, I know once you get married you forget about the dating years, but too me, 8 years is a long time to be with that same person every single day, but I would not trade the past 8 years for anything! We have a some great times and some not so great times, but I think that is what has made us so strong! He is my best friend! I love you Drewsie Poo and look forward to 50 million more years together! (ps: the picture was taken almost 8 years ago, it was right after we started dating and Drew and I went on our first camping trip together... That was a fun trip!)

Skyler's 15 month check-up


Today, We took Skyler in for his 15 month check up! He weights 23 pounds and is 32 inches long. He is in the 25th % for weight and 75th % for height. Dr Bean said he was run/walk alot, because he is long and skinny! We also talked to her about Skyler's ears and seizures. She asked how Skyler's speech development is doing, is he saying momma, dada, hi, bye. And he is not. All he does is grunt and say mmmmm. She said because of all of his ear infections, his fever seizure (caused by ear infections) and his speech development that it's time for tubes! So, she made us an appointment with a specialist on August 21st. Skyler has 3 teeth coming in and his molars are starting to bump out.

I love Skyler's Dr because I asked her about him being lactose intolerant and if we should just try milk or cheese with him to see if he can have it, but she did not want us to try because it would put us threw hell while he deals with the pain of it, but she gave us a name of an allergist that we could take him too to get tested. Which makes me feel alot better, instead of some weird form of torching my son.
Skyler got 3 shots today and cried threw out the whole thing. He is starting to know what the Dr's office is and that he gets shots there because today all he wanted to do was get out the door. He would keep trying to open the door or go stand by it while Dr. Bean was talking.. What a turkey. But, Dr. Bean said that Skyler is a healthy happy boy and once we get the ear thing solved we will be golden!
Since we got out of the Dr's early, we decided to play in the pool! Here are some fun pictures I took.

What a night!



Last night started out like any other night getting Skyler ready for bed. But then it turned sour really quick. Yesterday, he had been running on the warm side all day. I thought it was because he has 3 teeth coming in, so I keep him on the Tylenol. Well, last night we where getting Skyler ready for bed, Drew and I thought he felt REALLY warm, and his fever spiked really fast. We gave him Tylenol and a wet cloth for his head and hoped that his temp would go down. It was 103.6. As he sat/laid across my lap he just looked so lifeless, Drew tried to talk to him, get him to follow his finger something, but nothing. He was very unresponsive. He picked Skyler up and took him over to the fan thinking that would make him respond, but then it happened, He started to turn blue and go really stiff, he was starting a seizure. We laid him on the floor on his side and Drew called 911 and all we could do is sit and wait for him to come out of it. The paramedics came and said yes, it was another fever seizure just like he had in May. His levels where fine, sugars, ect. But they still wanted to get him checked out. So, off to the hospital we went...


After about 3 hours of waiting, the Dr. came in and said what called the fever was his double ear infection. I thought the fever was caused by his teeth coming in but I guess fever don't get above 100 degrees with teeth. Skyler, did not act like anything was wrong with his ears at all, so I would have NEVER would have guessed it was his ears. The Dr said to follow up with his normal Dr and ask them to do a full work up on him because since this is his second one, that it lowers the threshold to where he could have seizures all of his life even if they are not fever related. Skyler goes in on Thursday. I'm also going to ask her if we should put tubes in his ears because the last time this happened was because of an ear infection...


All in all, I'm glad that he is doing better today. He would not laugh, smile or want to move at all this morning, but Grandma and Grandpa crazy came out to see him today and he is doing better. It was the scariest moments in my life to watch my son go threw that and not being able to help him. But, I'm going to do everything I can so he does not have to go threw that again. We love Skyler and thanks for being so TUFF!!

Crazy Skyler


See what happens when you let grandparents baby sit your kids to long- My son has boobbies!!
Yes, I think this pictures shows how pissed I can make my son! I think it's quite funny!! He wanted out of the water!!

Kenny Concert!

Last night we went to Kenny Chesney!! I honestly think it was the best Kenny concert that I have been too EVER!!! It was held at the Rio Tinto, best out door concert! There where so many people there it was crazy! The concert started at 5:30 and did not end until 11. I think that best of the concert was then end when he rocked out too 5 - non- Kenny songs!! It was super hot and I turned into a sweat ball, but it was still worth it.
Hottie Kenny!

Me and my Big Sisser! xoxo. love ya, sis

Skyler is all boy!

I have my juice box, I'm ready to roll!

Yup! I have 100% all boy on my hands. So, this weekend Drew bought a pool for are back yard, (which we are in the process of fixing up) But he thought it would be great for the family and nice for the hot days that we have had lately. So, tonight he was putting the finishing touches on it and Skyler had to help. He did not care if he got dirty or that he did not have shoes on. He was out side with his daddy! He sat and played in the rocks, one time he tried to eat the rocks, he played in the dirt, he played in the pool as it was filling up and even had time to stop and give one of his puppy loves! He had dirt all over him, but he did not even care! He loved it!


watch out, I'm a big boy!

Playin in the water.

I love my puppy, Allie!

My HGC Diet

Ok, so I don't know if alot of you know, but I went on the HGC Diet. I started it May 31st and yesterday was the first day that I could eat some what normal!( oils, dairy, nuts, all meat, veggies and fruits back into my diet) I'm a VERY picky eater and on this diet you could only eat certain foods, and it was very hard for me but I did it. It was the longest 45 days of my life, But I'm 31 pounds lighter!! It was great because I got to go buy new clothes and put my bigger clothes away!! YiPpY!! I still have 3 weeks left but this is my maintenance part of my diet. Still no sugars or carbs. I'm very happy with my results and I'm thankful that I had my Drew there to support me the whole time, even thought I was not the nicest person on the diet! But we will be going to Jamaica really soon and that is going to be my celebration!!

Swimin' and playing in the yard

Today felt like the perfect day to play outside! Drew got Skyler's pool all set up and I sat outside with him and played in the pool! Now, of course he is used to grandpa and grandma Modahl's pool, so this was just a puddle for him.. but he still enjoyed it anyways!

We got Skyler this 4-wheeler for his birthday and he as been scared of it, but today he was having a great time with it. I fill up his little compartment with gold fish and he went to town on it. I had alot of fun outside playing with Skyler today! He was throwing is balls, found rocks to throw even played with the dogs! We finished up the afternoon with an otter pop!!

Date Day!

So, Drew and I have NEVER, EVER taken a day off to just goof off! We had some PTO time schedule so we could go to Bear Lake but our plans fell threw! So, Drew decided that he was just going to go to work, Because he is a workaholic. But I asked him if he could just take Friday off so we could have a day together and he did!! It was so much fun! I painted my bathroom Thursday while I was off, so Friday morning we finished putting everything back together. Cliff and Daylane came and got Skyler for the day, so we had the full day to ourselves! We went to a movie in the morning. We saw The Proposal. What a cute movie! After that we went to the new water park in draper. Cawabunga bay! It was a lot of fun! I wish I had Skyler there because he would have LOVED it! After that we went to dinner and home to get Skyler! It was so much fun to spend time with Drew and not have to worry about anything! Thank for the great day babe! I love you! xoxo
