Reese's Hospital Scare

This past Monday we took Reese into her Dr. office because she has this rash that won't go away and when she woke up from her nap she had little broken blood vessels all over her hand. We took her to the doctor and he wanted blood work done on her STAT! He told us she could possibly have leukemia. WHAT!!!??? We where not expecting that, we thought we where just going to get rash cream or something. He told us to go get some dinner because we might be at the hospital all night. YIKES! This is not how I envisioned my day going. We went to the American Fork Hospital where she was born and had her blood tested. It was really hard watching them draw her blood. I was bawling, Jeremy was bawling and of course Reese was bawling as well. It was awful. An hour later the Dr. calls and tells us its NOT leukemia. He thinks she has mono. Mono? On a one year old? Weird. We just got the test results back today and she has a severe case of mono. We probably all do now because we've been kissing on her like crazy like we always do. So we are a house full of mono people. Yuck. These are some pictures of when we got home, she has as sucker in her hand that she does not want to let go (sticky sticky baby)...you can see her bandaged arm from her war wound.

First Flight out of the Traffic Pattern

Hi. So I had flown solo twice already but this was different. On this flight I was able to fly out of the traffic pattern. So in other words I was able to fly about 10 miles away from the airport and practice all the maneuvers that I have learned and then fly back. It was kind of scary but very exciting. I flew at about 135 mph at one point. I also flew at about 8500 feet. It was so exciting to fly that high over the interstate and be able to look down at the traffic while I was flying my little airplane. So anyways it was very fun and I made it back safe and I was buckled up the whole time.

Holiday Jammies!

Here are a few pics of Reese's new holiday jammies, she has two pairs these are her newest pair. I will take a picture of her other set tomorrow, they are footed jammies SO CUTE!....She was trying to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse saving Santa she could care less about mommy trying to take her picture.

New Camera

We finally got a new digital camera (we dont know what happened to our old one). We were saving all of our coupons and we ended up saving over $100!! Yeah! We got a Olympus Stylus 790 SW (Orange). Its very durable. We like it so far, I will post pictures soon of Reese in her holiday jammies. I LOVE gymboree's new jammie line.

Who does Reese look more like?

Goodbye loyal phone, Hello fancy phone!!

I finally got a new cell phone!! Atfer 3 years, yes THREE years with the same phone I finally got a new cell phone and I have to say I love it!! Its a Samsung A 727. I have to get used to all the "fancy" features. My last phone I knew all the ways to work it backwards and forwards. I will miss my old friend of 3 years, it was loyal. Never really had any problems, it was no match for baby slobber. I was the ONLY one in my family that still had their original cell phone, my lovely husband used to not be so good with phones, but since noticing he kept taking my new upgrades he decided to be nice to his phones and thus enabled me to FINALLY get a new phone! Which was nice for a change. I will miss my old phone but I am VERY happy to get a new one. Jeremy has already asked to trade!! LOL! No sir-this one is mine! Now to only keep my new phone away from the slobber machine, it can never be in the hands of Reesey!!!

FIRST SOLO!!!

I have been waiting for Jeremy to update the blog to tell everyone that he had his first solo flight last Monday. He hasn't updated to I will do a little catch up and he can describe it later. Jeremy now has flown solo twice. He will fly again today. He is about to do a cross country and a night flight. Hopefully he will get all of his hours this semester for his private pilot. He really wants to get it in time for Christmas. We only have 4 more weeks of school left for this semester!! YEAH!! I only have 2 more semesters and I am done!! Counting down already! We booked Our tickets for Christmas, I will be home for 18 days and Jeremy will be able to be there for 6 days. We are so grateful that he was able to get time off of work. ( Thank you Jeremy's Boss)
