10 Honest truths about myself!

I was tagged by my dear friend, Mandy, so here I go with these truth's about myself!
(I tag anyone who wants to do this about themselves on their blog! Good luck)

1. Some may know this already, but when I was born....long time ago...I was born with a congenital Hip Dislocation. What this means, was that my right hip was no in the socket as it was suppose to be, but it was out and higher. They found this problem when I was about 15-16 mos old when I started walking with a limp. And when they Pediatrician checked my hips, it would pop. SO I have had 2 surgery's to fix this problem with 2 body cast from my waist all the way down to my ankles on the right side. and I have had 1 brace. 1st surgery was when I was 18 mos old and the other when I was 6 yrs. old. Now I am fine and I have had no problem with my hips. Every once in a while it will pop, but I cannot do any "High Impact" Aerobic Act. So when I was younger I had to quit clogging, because that is High Impact Aerobic Act. and when I was in Jr. High and High School I never ran because I had a note and I even got out of taking Fit for Life!

2. My favorite Dessert would have to be Brownies with peppermint stick Ice cream with Hot Fudge! Ummmmm! Yummmmmm!

3. Sometimes I get the urge to move because I need change in my life and different scenery. I house hunt a lot. That's why I change the furniture in my house a lot! Gives me change!

4. In High School, I never really dated! I went to ONE Boy choice dance...that was Prom my Senior year and the kid who asked me came to my door and brought me a rose and asked me to go with him! ( I never went my Jr. year.)

5. Ever since I was in 9th grade.....I knew I was going to marry my husband. I had always had a crush on him and when I get to High School I made him take me around before school started to show me where all of my classes were!

6. In High School, I would even sometimes purposely miss the buss just so tony would drive me to my house just so that I could be with him! (what can I say... I love my husband)

7. One of my life goals is to someday go to school to be a Nurse and work in Labor and Delivery! (I should have done this before I got married!)

8. I am going to start working PRN at Tanner Clinic in Kaysville and I train next week! I will be working in the evenings! If any of you are looking for a great Pediat. or Family Dr. they have great ones there!

9. I have the worlds 3 CUTEST kids right here in my very home!! (Am I a little Biased!?)

10. When I was in clogging, many years ago....my dream was to be on the "All Rocky Mt. Team and travel with them. But that ended because I didn't want to ruin my hip! Maybe someday I will have to teach clogging! I would like to do this!

Now, whoever wants to do this on their blog....can!

My "POP UP PANCAKE"



In one of my posts it says that I like "pop up pancakes" well, this is what it looks like! and it is really good! My hubby always makes fun of me because whenever he is around because it never rises like ti is suppose to, but here it is!
Here is how you make it:
beat 3 eggs till fluffy (5-7 min with beater)
then add 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/3 cup milk and 2 TBS. melted Butter all while you are still beating the eggs
then put in a round pie dish and cook on 400 for 18 min. I would stay out of the kitchen so there is no jumping around on the floor to make it fall!!
eat with powdered sugar! ENjoy

Finger Paints!




My kids really like to Fingepaint and Marissa really got into this time and had a fun time with it! Here are some pict.

Feeding the Ducks!






Since Tony is out of town again, I decided to take the kids to Barnes Park (Kaysville) to feed the Ducks! They enjoyed it and had fun! They also wanted to play at the park right there so we did for a little min! It was a warm day to get out and enjoy the sunshine! Maybe it will start looking like Spring here in a few weeks! Tony has been traveling a lot since the beginning of the e year! He has been out of town about every other week since the first of Jan. At least he has a job and is doing well for them! He is hard worker and I try to support him the best I can while he is away! As a plus for me: I hope to be working at Tanner Clinic PRN in the evenings a couple times a month to get me out of the house for a min so I don't totally go in sane! Now that the weather is Sunny and actually warm, the kids and I try to get out and play outside while I read my Vampire Books! (Almost done with the 2nd, only 30 more pages to go!)! Here are some pictures of us feeding the ducks! Don't ya like Marissa in her Sunglasses?!

Happy valentines Day to US!!

So, Okay we were a little spoiled! We bought a new LCD TV at Ciruit City on valentines Day! We heard of a really good deal so we went to see and ended up getting one! It is a 47 Inch LCD T.V. It has been way fun! We watched the Bourne Identity on it last night and was really cool! We also got a new stand for it also! We got it at RC Willey! It is fun to have something that will last for a long time and something that we have both wanted! We had a GREAT Valentines Day! We spent the WHOLE DAY together and later that evening we had Steak and Potatoes! On Friday, we made cookies and decorated them, my kids thought that was fun! I also decorated our garage door with hearts for my hubby and gave him a funny card! It was a fun day! I just wanted to tell my husband, what a great person he is and he is a hard worker and does well and he deserves the very best in life! We love you BABE!

This is what happens when you leave a 1 1/2 yr old in the house by them self!



It is total destructive of the cereal, might I add! Jaci's favorite thing is to get in my pantry and pull out the cereal. She loves Cheerios! SO this morning Blake and Marissa went outside to play in the snow so I thought Jaci would be fine in the house by herself while I went and vacuumed out my tahoe! Well, when I get back in the house.....There was a surprise for me: CHEERIOS ALL OVER MY KITCHEN FLOOR!! Think she was hungry or something...... It was a mess all over! I was mad and irritated and.....this child of mine......is a mess in its self! She has had a cold for the past 5 days and it is getting old, she has born more sick than the rest of my 2 children put together! It is snowing so we can't go outside, can't invite anyone over to play with Blake because Jaci has a cold!, I am cooped in a house all day long with 3 kids who need to be entertained all day long...... let me tell you....it get's old and I am tired of this weather. It needs to get warm like it was last week so we can go outside and they can play while I read my books! Can I just tell you...THE MOM HAS HAD IT! It's great that my hubby is home now....but this weather is driving me crazy! If any of you have any ideas of entertainment to entertain 3 kids or any cute kids patterns for dresses! I want to make Marissa and jaci a cute Easter Dress, that can somewhat be simple! Here are some pictures of my floor covered in CHEERIOS!

Jaci @ 16 mos!




Jaci had her 16 mos check today! She weighed in at 20# 11oz (11%) and height: 31' (53%). She is our growing bugger and she is so animated with her facial expressions, she cracks us up! She is becoming a better eater and will almost eat a little of what we present to her. She is way into dolls and pushing them around in the stroller. She also likes her play kitchen and makes food for us! She is talking a little better, but is slowly getting there. Her favorite word is "mamma"! SHe says it constantly. ONe of her favorite things to do is get into my pantry and pull out the Cheerios and get eat them! She loves Cheerios!! She is getting so big. Can you believe she is the same age as what Marissa was when I had Jaci. That just seems so weird and crazy! Never do that again!

Just on a side note: we weighed Marissa today also and she weighs a whole 25#. Since last June (the last time we weighed then she was 21#), so she has gained some! So that is a good thing! She is also getting bigger and talking a whole bunch more! Still on the eating side.....she is about the same. We do offer her food, it's just if she will eat it or not!

Blake is a whole 38.2#, so he is growing also! They are all getting big. It amazes me each day to watch them and see them interact! It is very fun as a mother!
