Our Bili Baby

Saddest thing, Maddax has Jaundice and is spending a few days in the bili lights. Our house glows blue at night, and it looks like I've already got him working on a tan! He just loves to be held and it is so hard to not just pick him up and snuggle with him! I hope he can be done with the lights (and them poking his heel every day to test his blood) very soon! Wish us luck :)

Our Little Prince

Kolby's birthday!

So I guess it's been almost two weeks ago, I can't believe I forgot to post these pictures. Kolby celebrated his 28th birthday on July 28, (fun huh?) We had a little family get together at a local park and Kolby played football well into the night with his dad, brothers and nephews while Hannah and her cousins played on all the swings and slides. It was a lot of fun to just sit back and relax while everyone else ran around!

In honor of the great man himself, I ought to put down some of Kolby's most admirable traits (I've been hard on him lately, no particular reason other than extremely elevated hormones...lol).
He is extremely generous, always thinking of others. He is very kind and thoughtful. Kolby is a family man, in every sense of the word, and he is a great father and husband! I couldn't have asked for anyone more suited for me, he is my opposite in every way and when we don't let our opposites get in our way, we are very complimentary!
Happy Birthday Kolby!

Tagged: Tanya in pictures!

So Candace tagged me this week and I'm finally getting around to posting, here goes:

1. Favorite Room: For now it is the office/nursery because it rarely gets messy since I'm the only one who uses it-go figure!


2.A fan of...TIVO/DVR! Love this invention!


3. What are your children doing right now?
Hannah is supposed to be cleaning up her stuff that has migrated to the living room and Maddax, well, he's not doing much other than still baking in my belly!


4.Closet...(ugh, once I added the maternity clothes to the too many we already own, it got kind of out of hand...)

5.Dream Vacation? Paris (this is the same as Candace, but our Grandpa had planned on taking us there for high school graduation before he passed away and I think we'll forever want to go since we didn't make it!)


6. Something you can't live without...Indoor Plumbing!! Need I say more, plus I'm visiting this lovely room much more often these days so it was the first thing that came to mind!


7.To get from here to there: Company car (and this is the loaner since mine broke down the other day for no apparent reason!)


8. Self-portait: Um, I'm due to have a baby any day, self-portraits are horrible since I'm all swollen, but Hannah took this playing with the camera last week...



9.Yard: Yeah, our back yard is like the size of a postage stamp, but here it is in all it's glory!


10.Something you're procrastinating: We've been procrastinating doing the deep cleaning of the pantry and kitchen cabinets and started it this morning!


11.Collection: I like jewelry!


12. Favorite shoes: I call these my Cinderella shoes, I've had them for 2 years and barely worn them because they are so dressy!


Now I tag my Mom (who just started her blog, it will give her something to post!!) and Emily!

Breaking Dawn

So it's true, I am a HUGE fan of the Twilight Series, so what does my wonderful husband offer to do? He said he would go to WalMart on midnight Friday night to get the book for me. (I had hoped to be reading it from a hospital bed, but obviously that didn't happen....anyway-)So Kolby goes to WalMart Friday around 11:30pm and returns home around 1:30am Saturday. Apparently the line was out of control and all these women were reading and speculating what was going to happen while in line to pay for the book. Kolby of course yells out that Edward is Gay and other non truths about the book, he mingles with the people in line, gets to know their life story, just being his typical self. When he got home he said it was so much fun and that next time we have to go together for the experience! (Yeah, that's not happening). But I was so grateful he went and got it for me :) So I spent Saturday reading in between my other activities, I liked the book, didn't love it like the others, but it was a nice ending to such a great story! Anyone else read it yet? What are your thoughts?
