Meg's MRI

On wednesday megan had an appointment to get an MRI done at primary's so they could get pictures for her surgery next week. We got there around 8:30 a.m and checked in her mri was scheduled for 10a.m. but they were running a little behind so they didn't take her in til about 11:30, i have never witnessed them put one of my kids to sleep before and don't if i ever want to again:) kinda a weird thing to witness. It took about two hours and then her Dr. came and talked to us and discussed to us what will be happening next Wednesday.

If you have ever been to primary children's and had a child have a surgery you know that while you are waiting you are well taken care of, and you get an awesome doll to play with, decorate and it's yours to keep. We have a few of these dolls lol. Megan had fun decorating hers with markers she drew hair, eyes, mouth, fingernails (painted) and gave her a necklace & earrings and even drew her a big red heart:)
She named her Ava Dance
While we waited one of the nurses hung out with Megan the entire time her name was Tammy and she was awesome. She gave Megan all the equipment the Dr. will be wearing and let her dress up in it and keep it, they show them everything so they are not afraid when the Dr. comes in dressed in all the stuff. And they show them all the utensils and let them use them on their dolls.

After she was done we were called into the recovery room where she was waking up, it took her awhile to come to and then when she did she was not feeling well and starting throwing up. After we got her dressed and she was a little more awake they let us take her home, she slept the hole way home and when we got home she threw up a little more then she was pretty good after that. She had to take it easy the rest of the day and was so excited to go back to school the next day.

Megan we are so proud of you and how well you did and we know you will do great next week during and after you surgery. We love you very much!!

First day of first grade.

Tayler & Megan started first grade. It's so CRAZY that my little girls are old enough to be in school let alone first grade, it seems just like yesterday i was holding there precious little bodies in the hospital. I love my little angels so much and i am so proud of the smart, beautiful and outgoing girls they are turning into. The first day of school they have the kids go meet their teachers then they start school. The girls were so excited to take lunch to school in their new matching lunch bags connected to there book bags.

Who ever invented that was awesome:)

So i was saying i don't know what I'm going to do when it's just jace and me around while the girls are at school, well i think this is what I'm going to be experiencing a lot.
Give this a kid a half of a kit kat and he uses it as lotion. He kept saying" funny mom" & laughing, i was trying not to laugh but i couldn't help it.
These next couple of weeks are going to be trying with Megan's & Jace's surgery's but i can't wait to spend time alone with my little boy, we are going to TRY the potty training thing as soon as things get back to normal (fingers crossed) I have never done the boy potty training thing before lol.

What a beautiful bunch!!

Whats been going on around here

Megan got a new hairdo today, she has been wanting her haircut for awhile now.

I think it's darling and fits her personality :)We went with our fun summer group of friends to the chocolate factory, who can say no to free chocolate lol.

We picked daddy up from the airport after another business trip to Seattle & Montana.
Who knew the airport was such a happy place, while waiting for Dustin to get off the plane we saw someone get purposed too & a few Hero's arriving from Iraq being greeted by loved ones. I couldn't help but get teary eyed watching the mom's seeing their men after who knows how long, and seeing the kids hug their daddy's.

We only have two weeks until school starts, man summer has flown by. We have had tons of fun but the girls are so excited to go back to school.

We have a lot of things coming up in the next couple of weeks some to look forward to and some not so much:(
