A Little Fun, A Little Drama

So lets start with some drama. It all started on Thursday with little Jesse running in the house yelling at the top of his lungs, " A SNAKE, A SNAKE ". So me and Big Jesse go out side to see if anything is out there. Nothing we looked everywhere. So we let all the kids go outside to play, then all four screaming at the top of there lungs " A SNAKE, A SNAKE " So I go running outside, and imagine that, a snake!! Black and White and really long. Jesse picked it up with a shovel and put it in a can.

Then we brought Little Jesse outside so he could see the snake that he found. He loved it, soo cool is all he could say!!( did you notice the big hairy spider too )

Now for some FUN. We had a little get together with Jesse's friends from work and had so much fun. Its been a while sence I have had some good old fashion fun. The best part was so did Jesse!! I haven't seen him laugh that much in a long time.

Now for the worst part. We decided to go to Andys house for some more fun on Sunday. All the adults were inside making some food when it all started. Eridanus came running inside screaming and crying. He had been attacked by bees. Next came Jesse and another little girl. All had been stung somewhere, some more then once. We took one look at Jesse and could tell he had been stung right on his lip. So we packed up the kids and Jesse drove to the hospital. When we got there they rushed us to the back because he was having trouble breathing. His oxogen level was below 50% and the whole left side of his face was swollen.

This picture was after all the shots and Benadryl-Epinephrine-and Prednisolone. It brought the swelling down a bit and then preceded to knock his ass out.

He slept for about 4 hours and then they finally let us go home after hours of observation. He is back to his normal self today, bouncing off the walls and driving everyone crazy.

So True!!

Before I was a Mom :

I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.

I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.

I never thought about immunizations.


Before I was a Mom :

I had never been puked on.

Pooped on.

Chewed on.

Peed on.

I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.

I slept all night.


Before I was a Mom :
I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests. Or give shots.

I never looked into teary eyes and cried.

I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.

I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep.


Before I was a Mom :

I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put her down.

I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I.. couldn't stop the hurt.

I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much.

I never knew that I could love someone so much.

I never knew I would love being a Mom.


Before I was a Mom :
I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body.

I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.

I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.

I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy.


Before I was a Mom :

I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every
10 minutes to make sure all was okay.

I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.

I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom

Little Weekend Fun

We went to Little Cottonwood Canyon last weekend and it was so much fun. I haven't been there sense chelle and me were encountered by a mousse. We went with Jesse's friends from work and their kids. At first my kids were kind of scared to walk around, until they saw the lizard. They all went crazy and chased that poor little guy everywhere.




Jesse even had fun too. Andy and him went hiking around the waterfall. We had some BBQ, and all in all we all had fun. Even through the down pour of rain right before we left.
