New SUV and 8 week ella update!

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE my new SUV it has sooooooooooo much power with its Turbo Engine.
We started having some expensive problems with our honda accord, so the spirit promted us to look for a new car and we got a great deal on our 2007 Mazda cx-7. I never knew it, but Mazdas makes some really top of the line Vehicles! and they are really safe and have really great features! ours only has 26K miles and is very very clean! I LOVE IT and it even is AWD so watch out snow, i'm going to kick your butt this winter!!!!!

AHHHHHHHHH my baby is already 8 weeks, where does the time fly!!!
This used to be my outfit and hat when i was a baby!!! i found it in a box in my garage!!

Ella and her cousin ShayLee are 5 weeks a part and love each other. this is them having a ball at Friday park day!

They are sooooo cute!!! AshLee please don't move to Camp Verde!!!!! Please Please!!!

Blow out #2 and this was after i wiped her off with a towel! any one want to bet their child has bigger blowouts??? i beg to differ...........she blew it all the way up to her face!!!! SICK!!!!

TERRIBLE--HEATH TEACHING HIS DAUGHTER AT THE YOUNG AGE OF 7 WEEKS TO PULL HIS FINGER!!!!!!!!!!AHHHHHHHHHHHHH i'm afraid of what else she is going to learn from heath!!!!!

Ella is learning to like tummy time on her boppy! she is HILARIOUS she even tries to sit up in her car seat. my child has a very strong neck!

I love that hat on her, she is soooooooooo beautiful!

This is a prime example of the adorable face she makes when she wakes up from a nap! yes it is her laughing)

My Sweet girl!

Ella LOVES to laugh and it is hilarious! she will wake up in the morning and start jibber jabering for like 20 minutes and smiling! it is the cutest thing. she is such a happy and fun baby!

Being a HAM in the car!

Sleeping at dad's soft ball game! (yes they are boring, sorry dad)

A couple of weeks ago Ella and I went to Wet N Wild with grandma, grandpa, aunt karla, uncle michael, Candy, Scott and cousins Ethan and Emmett. We had such a good time and the weather was perfect so ella did'nt get to hot!

Ethan is such a HAM!!! I love all his funny faces!

Emmett bug, eating his hat!

Ella loves to sleep (which i am very greatful for!). Grandpa hung out with her while mommy went on water slides!

Update on Ella bear! for aunt lizzie and others!

I know it has been a while since my last post! sorry! My mom came and stayed with us for a week after ella was born, we had the best time. Grandma T is the best! she cooked AMAZING meals for us (B, L and D) and she cleaned our house from top to bottom! we went to the Arboretum, went on walks and much more! thank you thank you grandma! We were very very sad to see her go back to Phoenix!

We call this the freeze and sleep, she leaves her hands in a freeze like position when she sleeps in her car seat, it is so000 cute!

Ella's first week so far... (post for aunt Lizzie)

Ella is such a sweet baby, she hardly ever cries (only if she is hungary and its past feeding time).
She gets up about twice at night to eat, but then goes right back to sleep.


-Ella's first bath. heath has asked to be ella's official bather, its pretty cute.
Ella chillin!!

Cousin Ethan enjoying his girl cousin. he did not want to put her down-

I LOVE that sweet little face.

Sleepy girl-

She is FINALLY here!!!!!!!

7:30am-Off to the hospital to be induced!
I recieved my first gel at 7:45am
they had me sit in bed for an hour, and then get up and walk around for an hour. the walking part was pretty tuff, the contractions started with in the forst 20minutes of laying in bed. after the first gel (2 hour time period) the nurse checked to see if i was anymore dialated, i was a 4 and so i did not need the other two gels. The contractions started to get more intense with each one, but luckly heath and my mom were there to coach me through my breathing. i asked for my epidural about 11:00am and the anesthesiologist can in about 12 noon. The doctor who put in the epidural was AMAZING! i didn't hardly feel a thing and he explained everything before he did each step. Within 20 minutes i fealt warm and tingly from my abdomine down. the epidural was sooooooooo good that i could still wiggle my toes and move my legs a litttle bit, but fealt absolutly no contraction pain. i was rather tired, so i took a nap for an hour. I could feel some cramping/contraction pain on my left side, so the nurse checked me again and to her surprise, i was a fully dialated 10!!! mind you, the doctor informed me that i would probably not start pushing till about 6pm and i was fully dialated at 2:30pm. the nurse said that the longer i wait to push, the further she will make her way down the birth canal by her self, so i waited about 20 minutes and then the nurse checked me again and her head was already starting to crown, so we geared up and started pushing. the doctor came at about 3:10pm and the fun began. i push off and on for about 20 minutes and er little precious head and body perfectly came out! she started crying instantly and she was herfectly pink! I have never seen a more perfect and beautiful baby! I could not have asked for a more PERFECT labor, and overalll not as bad as i thought it was going to be! Here are some pictures of our sweet little girl, ENJOY!

2 more days-

So i was due this past Sunday and yet no baby yet! this is the worst waiting game. i went to the doctor yesterday and i am dialated to a 3 and 70% efaced. i have tons and tons of contractions and they are pretty consistant, but then they just STOP (SO SO FUSTERATING) I am set up to be induced on Thursday July 1st, she just does not want to come on here own, so our little girl will be here this week! yay! stay tooned for pictures of Ella bear!

buying time, Burnt mountains and headbands

I am off of work for 7 weeks and i have been rather bored this week awaiting the arrival of my little girl. so i decited to make some more head bands for her, except these will fit her little head and the others i made before are for 6+months. i made them with knee hight nylons for the band and i just cut and sewed then end together, and then i got flowers from michaels, detatched the backs, melted them flat, hot glues the jewel in the middle and them hot glued the flower to the nylon band, i had lots of fun doing it!

This past sunday morning our beautiful mountains were set on fire by some STUPID campers. these are some pictures of sunday afternoon. the fire is still going today (thursday) and is only 20% contained. its really windy this time of year so the fire people are having one H of a time getting it under controll. it has burned some more than 18,000 acres and still burning. some of my most favorite places on the peaks are gone and it makes me really really sad to think about it. W e just need to pray for rain, for that is most likely the ONLY thing that will put the fire out, if they can't get it out, say good bye to snowbowl and pretty much the entire mountain range : (

I thought i would throw in a fatty-fatty-2-by-4 picture of me! She will be here any day! i have been trying really hard to help her come, with long walks up hill, bumpy woods rides and bouncing on my ball, nothing has worked yet, but hopfullyy soon!

My little Saturday project!

I found these cute little hats on line for realy really cheap and i went to michaels and bought the flowers. i hot glues them to some clips from sally's beauty supple and attached ribbon, i think they turned out really really cute! the flowers have clips on them so they are interchangable.

Head bands-

These are all the other bows that i have, most were made and given to me! Heath thinks that she is set for life!
