We had some excited times before she came. At my Dr. appointment 2 days before I was scheduled to be induced they told me that she was breech. They said that when we got to the hospital they would try to turn her and then immediately break my water. If for some reason they couldn't turn her or she didn't stay turned we would have to go for an emergency C-section. (just a side note: JoAnn said that she new that c-section stands for cut section :) I thought it was cute that she would make that connection!) I left the doctor pretty scared but calm at the same time. My family and friends were so helpful and looked up tips on how to turn a breech baby. I tried every trick I could and when we got to the hospital thursday morning...she had turned on her own! Thank goodness. The doctor checked me and for the first time ever I had gotten to a 4 all on my own. He decided to just break my water and see if that would induce labor. IT DID! And natural labor hurts just as bad as pitosin :) I was so glad that I was doing it on my own though. I was having a ton a back labor and the nurse said that usually happens when the baby is sunny side up! My sister Tonya was able to come and help us out and my sister-in-law's mom was my nurse. They were amazing. They kept turning my back and forth and even got me onto all fours with an epidural! After all that, she checked me and while she did, nicole turned and moved down. Only 45 minutes later I was at a 9.5. She said the baby was still really high though. I told her to just call the dr. in, I promised I could push her down. And as soon as the dr. came in 4 minutes later, Nicole was born. They said with my first push she turned completely and by the 2nd contraction she was out! Alan was incredible through it all! I am so blessed that labor and delivery went so well!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5191876003061078705.post-1187573598894446422011-04-15T10:44:00.001-07:002011-04-15T10:50:41.633-07:00JoAnn's Baptism<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3HKfJ8g4-VsliDcVphl0IdwicKPlI1kzXVsEC6-Z_-yU3k65Y2WAFcKzWD7IQ9N4Uxhyphenhyphenr2dkwzBG0UOlZgffxLcLkyYtGC5_gDk7JS71E5zeZo4_vcb_q4odbxS79TElEfBuzhzopja8/s1600/100_2232.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3HKfJ8g4-VsliDcVphl0IdwicKPlI1kzXVsEC6-Z_-yU3k65Y2WAFcKzWD7IQ9N4Uxhyphenhyphenr2dkwzBG0UOlZgffxLcLkyYtGC5_gDk7JS71E5zeZo4_vcb_q4odbxS79TElEfBuzhzopja8/s320/100_2232.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5595868793133515426" /></a><br />JoAnn was baptized on March 12th at 11:00.

We always come up, but this year we were able to do everything. On Tues and Wed. Alan played in the 3 on 3 basketball tournament and I was able to play in the co-ed volleyball tournament. It was a blast. My brother, Levi and his wife came up on Tues. to play on my team for the tournament and they were able to stay for the whole week. Also, my sister Tonya was on our team and Alan's sister Gaylene. And my mom was able to come on Wed. to just be here. It was so much fun and the week is also just constant crazy. I love it! Thursday is the ice cream social, Friday is the Jr. Rodeo and campfire circle, and Saturday is the adult rodeo, stake fry and adult dance. <br />Sara loved the ice cream social. She would yell every time we took the popsicle out of her mouth!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDdTxz_4AmsmBb6dnvU8fY7N6mG7r5TvXKng8oM_u2xJCQZfWUskcQvC9qOBf_ytiNLmiS3IUfHclPBqKUk_84GO3alMGRreykki8jgbBJU1AAQF2YhGsQv7CbONPddpyMsZ8Nezds-2A/s1600/100_1729.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 238px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDdTxz_4AmsmBb6dnvU8fY7N6mG7r5TvXKng8oM_u2xJCQZfWUskcQvC9qOBf_ytiNLmiS3IUfHclPBqKUk_84GO3alMGRreykki8jgbBJU1AAQF2YhGsQv7CbONPddpyMsZ8Nezds-2A/s320/100_1729.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5498467978470424674" /></a><br />The kids were able to have their best friends come over on Fri. for the Jr. Rodeo.

I thought i was going to die, but we all said we would do it and it felt so nice to finish. I don't know if I will ever do another one, but it really was a good thing to be able to do with my sisters. We all started at the same time, but both of them finished way before me. And they were so good to come back and run along with me across the finish. My family is amazing too...we had so many people there supporting us.

So every now and then I start to feel way lazy and decide to try a few new projects. These are what I have been working on lately. I really do love it when I finish a project...not always when I am doing it though :)<br /><br />I saw this idea a while ago and wanted to try it out. You just get any can...I used a spaghetti sauce can (the bigger ones) and opened them with the can opener that leaves a smooth edge. Then you clean good and cover with cute paper. Cook your favorite cookies, fill them up and tie a bow! I thought it was a great visiting teaching gift or teacher appreciation! <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjnWCjxxg6MagEP0ssPzRbgGYymVis264iYXqd9qi5u4as6-Hxtl_PuXs9qnUj9MS-iFPL8JniYKBX-Gs2_cCmGXatVGJhw1mXXLhDCMveWlFckebNAsItPTagqTZ8Ut0jAbNsn-3fKIE/s1600/100_1525.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjnWCjxxg6MagEP0ssPzRbgGYymVis264iYXqd9qi5u4as6-Hxtl_PuXs9qnUj9MS-iFPL8JniYKBX-Gs2_cCmGXatVGJhw1mXXLhDCMveWlFckebNAsItPTagqTZ8Ut0jAbNsn-3fKIE/s320/100_1525.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5457931366821886594" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn1ubAAGv2B3pL8XmgTznIn7yOYuEdGoryrig_In8Sx9q1c7dXUBbWj837wle8B9KngNwwgwpaU3H6xW4cFZwXiRhSJBoIEGyFDwzNjmg8dhnynGFq3AYnLNzYDby88sm3HeBG4RnI5Fg/s1600/100_1527.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn1ubAAGv2B3pL8XmgTznIn7yOYuEdGoryrig_In8Sx9q1c7dXUBbWj837wle8B9KngNwwgwpaU3H6xW4cFZwXiRhSJBoIEGyFDwzNjmg8dhnynGFq3AYnLNzYDby88sm3HeBG4RnI5Fg/s320/100_1527.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5457931360392202866" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitUKQ3Boa7rcvSirF1Z6rI0SWziXqjBCmeB68ThUBNH8L5zpPscVgEjpPCBjtTMor2vWnwkBZ491gYSj_yoEoTB2WqECnDns3G2kpQF63oxMeOKlqBIlcO1dLzbeNJnh44swjz_UHULs4/s1600/100_1531.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitUKQ3Boa7rcvSirF1Z6rI0SWziXqjBCmeB68ThUBNH8L5zpPscVgEjpPCBjtTMor2vWnwkBZ491gYSj_yoEoTB2WqECnDns3G2kpQF63oxMeOKlqBIlcO1dLzbeNJnh44swjz_UHULs4/s320/100_1531.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5457931355531149330" /></a><br />I saw a different version of these...(alot cuter but way more expensive) and thought I would try them out myself.

When we were in Coolidge we became good friends with Amber and Josh Wilkins. We both have girl, boy, girl, girl...and they are all pretty close in age (minus the last ones). They have since become our BEST FRIENDS. This is a friendship that I feel like you find once in a lifetime. Everyone gets along and just loves being together. It was so hard to leave Coolidge for so many reasons, but definitely we knew that we would not be able to see them very often. JoAnn cries often for Emmy and Emmy for her. It broke my heart today to see them when they saw each other. They both went running and almost knocked each other over and then didn't let go forever. And then the boys run and hit each other and were off! And then to say bye was so hard for the older girls. They were both trying so hard to be brave, but they had tears when we had to leave. It was so great for me to get to see Amber again too. She is amazing! She is one of those women that everyone just thinks is incredible. She watches kids, does crafts, has a beautiful home, and her kids always look so dang cute just to name a few. If anyone thinks I am crafty...I got most of my ideas from her. I just hope they know how much we miss them and we feel so lucky to have them in our life. We Love you guys and hope you get up here soon! :)<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhG_Uufl_YAVPVksFZrLhRy04Ebgcwh9Zy14hrbExTsSL3nJvvC6ELeL6crHAFgRwb0vt2fYYRzg1V34AL2KWOE24VfnROBrNtZSjhcymAdTo93k3NTa6P_r9HEdVCZxGaGxMPznnhU1DY/s1600/100_1489.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhG_Uufl_YAVPVksFZrLhRy04Ebgcwh9Zy14hrbExTsSL3nJvvC6ELeL6crHAFgRwb0vt2fYYRzg1V34AL2KWOE24VfnROBrNtZSjhcymAdTo93k3NTa6P_r9HEdVCZxGaGxMPznnhU1DY/s320/100_1489.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454654474301437058" /></a><br />CRAZY KIDS...All 8 of them.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrvYF_dnISoQ9gPojn83GIowRgaWj62oMlweV7MsdQAsQcBN0IDNvXHmLlCirj88MDmXimNNyvrrtlGidL35Iu4MpZY4XNj_EFrxZrmk8ikGNEvPWhwBDJjxZJvxkpaiJqUd-xJnL3XHE/s1600/100_1482.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrvYF_dnISoQ9gPojn83GIowRgaWj62oMlweV7MsdQAsQcBN0IDNvXHmLlCirj88MDmXimNNyvrrtlGidL35Iu4MpZY4XNj_EFrxZrmk8ikGNEvPWhwBDJjxZJvxkpaiJqUd-xJnL3XHE/s320/100_1482.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454654472740950690" /></a><br />JoAnn and Emmy (They really do just love being together)<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZzAvsSnmKJBkaNOUe9mi9UL0MbW89BuC_YmaDKsow88CVIwNSoFMYzZZBTJ4TeEM3dTuucveN1q1BQYeOkU8gnGJaUw1a8dYlW4YbrUP6MkBKIKomYpg1S7v6XaATq0YLJgwk3VgKP28/s1600/100_1490.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 238px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZzAvsSnmKJBkaNOUe9mi9UL0MbW89BuC_YmaDKsow88CVIwNSoFMYzZZBTJ4TeEM3dTuucveN1q1BQYeOkU8gnGJaUw1a8dYlW4YbrUP6MkBKIKomYpg1S7v6XaATq0YLJgwk3VgKP28/s320/100_1490.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454654456560376418" /></a><br />Rylenn and Savanna...our two princesses if there ever were some :)<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP_Z8H5nvFmkh0wCziyNJLZicOp9npb_GFRNZu2RGtX31MvUVvtHLzQnQ7h6qwaxXtGbkI_BdwohuwNbpssONfKlEEF1ehTu8OmJxRWM-8FKsuJbDCH_KeiBLOmkRGJDDKhJxRlGtywx4/s1600/100_1485.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP_Z8H5nvFmkh0wCziyNJLZicOp9npb_GFRNZu2RGtX31MvUVvtHLzQnQ7h6qwaxXtGbkI_BdwohuwNbpssONfKlEEF1ehTu8OmJxRWM-8FKsuJbDCH_KeiBLOmkRGJDDKhJxRlGtywx4/s320/100_1485.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454654456073612098" /></a><br />Jay and Tucker...Boys will be boys!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5191876003061078705.post-22323030434188761352010-02-27T14:33:00.000-08:002010-02-27T14:43:01.683-08:00Happy 7th JoAnnI can't believe I have one that is 7.

This may be a really long post. To start with, we moved! We are now in St. Johns. Alan got a call up three Sunday's ago and said he had gotten the job we had applied for here in St. Johns at SRP. And then they said we have a week to move. AHHH! Well, for anyone that knows us, this is our 10th move in the almost 8 years since we have been married. We were able to get everything moved and we are loving it here. We are staying with Alan's parents for now. They have been great and my kids think this is the best thing to live with Grandma and Grandpa and Jay is loving having uncles to play with. <br />Alan's birthday was the 19th...the day he started work. He said it was the best present he could have had. It was crazy hectic but we were able to get him some small things. I hope he knows how much I love him. He is amazing and I am so lucky that he is in my life.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMAKsynLWP3p4RhWEAFDmV_OJtAOhuJdYde5JwOM3oWNjEFLDm7Va9x261AaFLkQ8r0N6OIYu4asee4DK2Vw1KapjMgDQkm9nIhEd1GSVc88NzYZqL-yZ6duwTY_2L921v-krnDaF0ldA/s1600-h/100_1072.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMAKsynLWP3p4RhWEAFDmV_OJtAOhuJdYde5JwOM3oWNjEFLDm7Va9x261AaFLkQ8r0N6OIYu4asee4DK2Vw1KapjMgDQkm9nIhEd1GSVc88NzYZqL-yZ6duwTY_2L921v-krnDaF0ldA/s320/100_1072.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399571433917523378" /></a><br />We are now living alot closer to Alan's grandparents and we were able to get a 5 generation picture. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7P6gH7Jvzm0_fA4HxYAZ-S0st8-BEuL-W9RiAAJrOkFZCrVYf18DnQp2BJD2qzJVz6YNd_5bdl76mUleIc0nYcmePtdaLnH65GHUniOitnpoRvB73oXXAmDloIaoILwpJPWd-MPI6Paw/s1600-h/100_1083.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7P6gH7Jvzm0_fA4HxYAZ-S0st8-BEuL-W9RiAAJrOkFZCrVYf18DnQp2BJD2qzJVz6YNd_5bdl76mUleIc0nYcmePtdaLnH65GHUniOitnpoRvB73oXXAmDloIaoILwpJPWd-MPI6Paw/s320/100_1083.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399571437977415682" /></a><br />It snowed only a few days after we moved here.

I have an amazing Dr. and he said I could pick my due date, and of course 9 months pregnant I wanted to go asap :) We went into the hospital about 9 am, but they didn't even get me hooked up to IV or the Pit until around 10:30. Believe it or not, I was able to get about an hour worth of rest before the contractions were too hard. My Dr. came in about 1:30 and broke my water since I had just decided to get the epideral. Right after they gave me my epideral my mom and sister were in visiting me and I started to feel really weak. I called the nurse in and my blood pressure had dropped to something like 60/32. They said that is common after an epideral, but it was really weird. They said I looked like a ghost for a little while. That actually happened twice, but then we were good to go. I started to feel pressure about 6:30 and they said I was at an 8. My two sisters were able to be in there with Alan and I for the delivery. It was so amazing to have them there, but I did miss my mom. She was so great and had all the kids at home (not just mine but my two sisters too.) Mom you are incredible! It really has been an amazing recovery too.

She couldn't fall asleep until after 10:30 because she was so nervous. Then she was up at 6:00! I hadn't planned on waking up until after 6:30. I love the pic with her by the playground.
