Fallen Officer Ride

Sunday the 17th was the Fallen officer ride. It took off at the Harley store and went up to the capitol. It was green lights all the way up. I am sure all the people who were stuck while we passed were not very pleased but oh well. It was so much fun. I haven't really been able to ride all summer so it was really nice to go. Hopefully the next ride I will be able to take my own bike. I just need a little more practice on it before I go with a whole bunch of people.

Blog update

have missed updating on the blog. I was so busy this summer with trying to get my basement finished before I came back to work and just spending time with Kendal and Presley. So now that I am back here are some things that we did this summer. We went to the farm at the Thanksgiving Point. Kendal really liked ridding the horse. She didn't want to get off.




The 4th of July is always fun. We went to the booths and the Kids fair and they were doing hair here is her random hair do.

We went to Seven Peaks with our neighbors. It was really fun until we left because someone stole my shoes. Not so fun.

Random pictures from this summer. Kendal was dressed one morning and said that her feet were cold so she came to me and asked if she could go like this. I just laughed and said umm no.

Don't know if you can see her eye make up she put blush on her eyes and eyeliner. She looked so hot.



24th of July parade. Kendal loves parades. Here are some pictures to prove it.

Here is Pat singing at the Grand Opening of the new Harley building the week of the 24th. Kendal is watching her dad and is loving it. She got up and danced on the stage with him.

Kendal was in the Santaquin parade for her dance group. After the parade they performed in the park. She was so excited for it.

Kendal took swimming lessons at the new Payson pool. She loved it.

Back to work

Well I am back to work today. I have mixed emotions about it. At least I didn't have to drop the kids off that is Pat's job. But... they are in good hands. My friend and neighbor watches them. I will let you know how they do today.

Happy 4th of July

Well it has been a while since I have posted. As you can imagine it has been a little crazy around my house. It has been so fun staying home with my two girls. I love spending time with Kendal. I just can't believe how fast time is going by. I don't want to go back to working in a few weeks. The 4th was great. We went to the parade and watched fireworks. Pat is in South Dakota seeing the black hills. We miss him and want him to come home. Presley is such a good baby. She is sleeping so great. We just have to work on getting a schedule down and not a feed me on demand schedule.

She's Here!!!

Well I am finally putting a post. Presley Thomas is here. June 13th. Yes, Friday the 13th. She was born at 2:48 p.m. and weighed 7lbs 11oz and was 20 inches long. I woke up that morning and was having contractions but then they stopped so I went to work. When I got there they started up again I finally left work at 10 and called Pat and drove to the hospital. I was praying that they wouldn't send me home. When I got there they checked me and I was at a 5. I was so releived when the nurse told me that I was staying. Thankfully the delivery went fast this time but... My epidural didn't work. Yep you heard it. It didn't work I was in so much pain. My Dr. got there at about 1 to break my water and I was at a 7 he said he would be back in about an hour to check on me. When he got there at about 2:15 I still had a little while so he thought. He said that he was going to his office and told the nurse to check me in about 20 minutes and call him. I was having contractions and they hurt so bad. I felt like I had to push so the nurse came in to check on my and had me push once and told me to stop and yelled at someone to call my Dr and get his butt back here right now. When he got there I was so ready to have her out. I pushed about 3 times and her head was out and he had me push once more and she just pretty much fell out. Can I just tell you that I was so releived that it was over. She is such a good baby and all is well. Here are some pictures. Sorry the pictures didn't work yesterday but they are there now. You can also look on http://www.hospitalportraits.com/ and go to June 13 and look at those pictures.

June 10

Well here it is June 10th and no baby. You would think with all of my contractions and everything that I would in the hospital or at least have a baby by now. I have 4 days left and I feel it. I go back to the Dr. on Thursday so hopefully I won't make it there but we will see.

Baby or No Baby that is the Question?

Hello!! It seems to me that I am doomed to be pregnant forever. I went to the Dr. yesterday and still no change. Not to lack of trying anyway. I have been to the hospital 3 times with major contractions. I am at a 2 and 80%. The Dr. was amazed that I had made no progress with all of the contractions. Well I have today and tomorrow to have this baby or I have to wait until the doc gets back on Sunday afternoon. So... I am praying that my theory about the full moon tonight and the storm rolling in tonight/tomorrow that it will cause some change and maybe just maybe I will be taken out of this miserable state of forever pregnancy that I am in. Oh, and by the way happy anniversary to Pat. Love You!! Yesterday was our 7th anniversary. I will post a picture of my present that I got later. I am so excited for it but... Pat won't let me use it until after I have the baby. I keep telling him that I am sure it will put me into labor but he is not so sure of that.
