SHOPPING!!

I took my girls up to Park City this weekend to go school shopping !!!
We had so much fun, my sister-n-law and her best friend came up and we stayed in a suite at the hotel, right across from the outlets.

We went to Historic Main Street and ate pizza and then went swimming all day and all night, as well as SHOPPED, SHOPPED, SHOPPED !!!
On the way home we stopped and saw the Devils Slide...
I wasn't to impressed with the deals they had up there, I remember always going with my mom and we got really good deals, and as my girls would say " that was WAY back in the day". We got a lot but they were the same prices as they are down here, but we will def. do it again.

HELP !!!

Ok, so my blog really needs a makeover and every where I try I get an ERROR message and then I can not make it work.

So HOW, WHAT, WHEN, WHO, can help me or what can I do...

Any Ideas are greatly appreciated. As you can see my blog really needs some help.

Jaxon !!

Today is my nephews 11th BIRTHDAY!!

Last night we all got together for dinner and had so much fun.
I asked Jaxon what he wanted for his birthday and he said;



Jaxon " I need a bag of deodarant"


Me: " UUHH ok, WHY?"

Jaxon: " Well, I am getting older and I STINK!!!"

Me: "OK how about something funner like legos or music"

Jaxon " ok get me a CD player"

Me: "ok you got it"



So, I got him a really cool cd player that will also allow him to hook up his IPOD !!

My mom and my sister got him some cool deodarant!!

What a kid, Jaxon your amazing and the best nephew EVER!! I love you so much. We all appreciate all that you do for the family, I am glad that you and I are so close and that when we are together we have so much fun...



I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU!!!

Love always,
Aunt Heidi

Results !!

So yesterday I went into the my follow up appt. with my doctor
AND THE RESULTS ARE::::::::


Fibrosis and Ductal Ectasia.
HUH ???

Yeah, that is what I said, so Fibrosis is I don't know and ductal ecstasia is when the milk ducts swell or close. This mostly happens in woman 40-50 years of age... So she said to me "Heidi, welcom to getting older"

WHAT??
Are ya kidding me, older?
I have now decided I will not turn 30 this year, I will turn 28 years old again and I will remain there forever!!!
Getting older REALLY, who says that. So I looked up dectal ecstasia online and yes it happens to woman who are PRE-POST MENOPAUSAL !! OOH how I am aging.
So it was good news, but we found a small lymph node in my arpit that is now swollen and I am supposed to watch it and keep track of it. I see her again in January and she will do another ultra-sound on it then. Other then that I am doing really good, I have very little pain at all.
That is due to the fact that mine are VERY VERY SMALL!!

Being the "OTHER" Parent

I am a STEP MOM!!!

I am not this:

So I thought.

I really try hard to not make my "Step kids" feel like they are mine and not just his!!

So things I do to make this happen:

1. Buy them school clothes and school supplies. I use equal money on all the kids.

2. Equal money spent on X-mas gifts.

3.Never call them my "STEP KIDS", they are my children and I love them.

4. Attend all parent teacher conf, and back to school night.

5. We pay our child support and for school lunches.

6. Paid for braces on both kids.

7. Paid for glasses and contacts.

8. Very active in the sports they play or things they like to do, and it goes on and on, not that I am saying I am super mom and all, but I really try hard to let them know I love them and the qualities they bring to the family.

So they are getting a older and it was a fight to have them come over sometimes, so Kev and I agreed to let them come over when they want to, as to making them be there. This was really hard for me to do. I wanted to see them all the time and do so much as a family, but I agreed and it has been pleasant. So here is why this kind of STEP MOM COMES OUT!!

So now, I am fed up with:
1. Naomi (mom) tells the kids that I am only Heidi not mom.
2. Does not let Callie call me more then twice a week.
3. Refuses to let them do homework @ our house, we will do it wrong.
4. Tells them that Kev and I love Mattie and Brohlen lots more since they live with us 24/7.
5. Wanted to take Callie and Mattie to Hannah Montana concert was told no she can't go, then took her herself.
6. Will not let the kids take the toys we bought them over the her house.
7. She now will not let me buy them school clothes, she told me this today,
8. When I did buy them she would hide them or throw them away.
9. If I tell her I am planning on doing something fun with the kids she will go out do it or not let them come with us.
10. Doesn't let them attend church with me.
on and on.................................
I Would not ever change anything in the world that I have done and not wanting to complain because I love my life, I am just tired of "PARENTS" being absolutely RIDICULOUS!! Get over it and move on, for the kids sake. Be happy that there is some one in your child's life that loves them and is willing to be there for them.

Surgery

So my little SKITTLE was operated on today. They removed the lump and my surgery took about an hour and a half, my incision is 3 inches long and feels like its on FIRE!!! Other then that I am doing really good. My kids and hubby are taking really good care of me, daddy went to pick Brohlen up from the babysitters and had a talk with him about being very careful, so when he got home Brohlen said " you booby sad today", "yes Brohlen mommies booby is sad and sore". So he gave me a kiss very carefully on my cheek.

My wonderful neighbor took Mattie to Lagoon A Beach today so Mattie was not bored sitting around.

The doctor told Kev, that she is not sure what she has removed, she is not sure that it is Fibroadenoma or a fatty tissue or a cyst. So we will just wait for the biopsy and then go from there. I am positive it is absolutly nothing.

Keep our fingers crossed, and I hate taking pain killers so pray I don't need one for a while.

Kev went up camping with a bunch of guys, so the kids and I went to the Roy Water Park!!It was really fun, it was nice because Mattie and Brohlen just played in the kiddie pool and I got to lay out and relax.

So, I had to say something POSITIVE about our swimming adventure... WHY??

OOH I will tell ya, I did not want to go, I gained a bit of weight and put my swimming suit on and OOOH BOY did I look like
YES, that is RASPUTIA from Norbit the movie!! So, I had to buy a new swimming suit and there was some slim pickins @ Target today. I also HATE getting my picture taken, I am my worst critic EVER!! Mattie snuck one in of me and it is time for me to SHAPE UP. Although I did have a lot of fun swimming and I did not go thru any fence when I went down the water slide.

I am FIRING the MOON BOOTS!!

I bought Brohlen some Spider Man snow boots, so that we could RARELY go out side in the FREEZING COLD... so here he is with his new boots on.

he keeps wearing them and wearing them, yes it is summer and he has shorts on and MOON BOOTS, he looks like Napolean Dynamite.

OOH and yes here they are again, shirtless and BOOTS!! I really have hid them and almost threw them away, but I just could not hurt him that way.... AAAGGHHH!! He even sleeps with them on. He has to wear them to church so he can show his FRIENDS??? Really Brohlen your are ONLY 2.

So, I am just going to have to live with it, and eventually they will not fit.

Better late then Never!!

So our 4th of July was GREAT!! We went to the Layton park and I got to see Tana, and Charissa and lots of friends from school. We had a BBQ at our house, it was really relaxing. Brohlen usually loves the fireworks, but he got scared of the sparkler and then was afraid when Kev lit the big fireworks... He is funny boy
