Phew... We've been busy. Ish.

This past month has flown by!! I don't know where the time goes, honestly, because we haven't been doing all that much.We had a few birthdays in the family in January but other than that, not a whole lot. We did get a gym membership (Yipee) and I have been taking lots of classes. Most of them kick my butt. Except for one. I have found a new love and its name is YOGA. Although my body definitely wasn't built for it, I love it all the same. I went to the doctor last month and we decided to try a new fertility medication because clomid was just making me grow cysts. So, I went to pick up my FIVE pills, and the total came to 96 FREAKING DOLLARS. Yes. I about died also. I tried to see if they were diamond crusted, but no luck. But I had NO side effects while taking them, so that was a plus. I guess we will see if they did their job in the near future. On another note, Preston is getting huge and I just want to squeeze him all day because he is so cute!! He is such a joy to me and I am so grateful that we have him. Sometimes I wish he would stop growing, though. It was Kacey's 25th birthday on the 7th of February and that was fun. We went to a hunting expo down in Salt Lake and then went to dinner. Kacey just so happened to find a twenty dollar bill in the parking lot while waiting for the rest of us to come out. Lucky Birthday Boy. And Valentine's Day was fun also. Except that I went and took two tests for college in a blizzard, but other than that, it was fun. Very low-key this year. All in all, a great start to the year. I will try to find some pictures to post for the three of you people who read this blog. :)

New Years and Kirby turns 22!!!

New Year's Eve was very fun this year. First we got to go to a party at and old friend's house whom I haven't hung out with in years. THanks for inviting us, Jess!! There was other kiddos for Preston to play with and he also chased their poor dog the whole time. :) Then we went to the in-laws for junk food, junk food, and more junk food. Mmmmm. So good. Anyway it is also my bro-in-law Kirby's birthday that day, so we partied even harder. The boys did fireworks and shot their guns as well. IT was a great ending to a great year. I hope this one is even better.

Hardware Ranch and Hunting!!

One Sunday (I know, I am bad) we decided to go for a family drive up to hardware to see the elk. It was the last Sunday of the year and the wretched 1 'o clock church block. We had a really great time and when we got to where you could see the elk, Preston said "Where's my shotgun?" Lol. Yea. And the boys went hunting one day and happened to get lucky.

Christmas...

I know it has been over a month since I posted, but it is incredibly HARD to find the time to upload my pictures to my computer!! I haven't been in the mood! SO anyway, here are some pictures of our Christmas. We got way too many presents as usual and feel immensely blessed by our Father in Heaven.

Hormones!!

I have been having a hard time the last few days because another month has passed and still no bun in the oven.... That is the reason I didn't post any pictures of me in my last post at the festival, because I had been crying all day!! My eyes are already chinky enough and the crying just made them worse.. I had to go to the doctor on Wednesday to check a cyst on my ovary and I was complaining to Kacey about how I hate to go to the doctor all the time by myself. So I get to the doctor's office and I am walking in and who pulls in the driveway??.. Kacey!! I was SO happy to see him there and felt much better. He had taken an extra long lunch that day and stayed late at work so he could go. I honestly have the best husband in the world, No, the Universe!! Just when I am starting to feel all alone in my battle with infertility, he does something like that and gives me the strength to go on with it. I had honestly been considering giving up the infertility treatments all together because I was just so frustrated!! I love him so much and am so blessed to have him and Preston in my life!!!!
