The last chapter in this book....

I think this will be the last post for this blog. I'm going to be making a new one shortly. (maybe longer...).

Rob and I have decided to split ways, so he is going to move out. And I'm going to stay in the house until I find a cheaper place to live or a way to afford to stay. (Anyone looking for a room to rent?)

Flash needs a home, I just dont think I can keep him. So if you know anyone looking for a lab puppy, let me know!

Flash update and introducing Wesley :)

Flash made it! He spent the night in the pet hospital and was like a brand new dog when I brought him home the next day! He is now on antibiotics and an anti puke meds for about 5 more days and will be just great. Unfortunately, nobody can bring their doggys to visit for something like 2 years. (I didn't realize that Parvo could live that long in the environment.)
But I've learned a lot with the shelter experience. I think I will open my own dog rescue when I have more space and resources to do that.

Anyway, so I said I was going to spotlight each of us. So today I'll start with Wesley.
Wesley Robert is the baby. He was born August 13th at 8:58. He weighed in at 6lbs and 12oz. Was 18 in long. Just one pound and one inch different than Christy. Now he is about 8 months old. I can't believe how fast it goes. he used to be just a helpless little baby. Now he's a big baby who is almost walking. And he's getting way chubby! lol His last weigh in was 17lbs. LOL, this kid'll eat anything. His eyes are blue. He has dark brown hair coming in and an adorable smile. He's gonna be a heartbreaker someday!
He is starting to say a few things. Like daada. Dooogdog and mama. Well he says something like that. But that's what they mean. Daddy, dog and mommy. My kids love the dogs. It's sweet. Wesley also loves his sister. Where ever she is, Wesley wants to be to see what is going on. He is the man in action! He loves to eat, play and pretty much just hold mommy.
I love him. Yah...so that's Wesley.

Please say a prayer for Flash



So, in the past 3 years I have done some pretty major things. I got married, had a baby, moved across the country, lost my baby sister, my cousin, my father in law and my grandmother. Practically separated from my husband. Had a miscarriage. Had an ectopic pregnancy and miscarried. had another baby. bought a house. bought a dog. bought another dog. Took out my endownments (sp?) adopted another dog. I'm sure there is more to add to this. Wow! Anyway, I just thought I would write an update. I finally got myself to get to the temple in February. It was an amazing experience. I really hope that Rob will want to join me there soon so that we can be sealed forever.

Rob has moved up in the company quite a bit in just one year. His boss loves him, as well as most of his co-workers. His health seems to be the same. He is going to see yet another specialist when he returns from Oregon. Hopefully we'll get some answers. I hate waiting for results! Christy is potty trained! Yay! She did it all by herself. It happened over night. And has had a lot of success with it.
Wesley is almost standing and walking. He loves that he is so mobile now. It's so cute!
I'm going to be starting school on May 27th. I will be attending Provo College and going through their massage therapy program. I have been wanting to do a massage program since before I graduated high school, and it never seemed to be the right timing...so I guess now it is. Anybody want to be homework?! lol!
Now, if having a bird and 2 dogs werent enough, I went and adopted a third dog. Daisy and Jasper love our Flash. But I found out today that he has Parvo. Luckily both the other dogs have been vaccinated, so they are mostly immune. Flash has to stay the night at the vets in hopes that they can help him recover. PLease pray for him :) Christy is heart broken that he didn't come home with us and Daisy and Jasper have been looking everywhere for him. Its strange that he isn't here sitting on my lap! lolAnyway, that's mostly it as new in our life...So, what's new with you?

Quick intro

I'm not very good at keeping everyone updated... So I'll try this again, first, I think I'll introduce us.

Rob is from Fresno, CA and Sparks, NV. He moved with his parents in 2004 out to the frosty plains of Woodbury, Minnesota....
I, am from Orem, Utah. I had decided to try out being a nanny out there, and moved in January to Eden Prairie, Minnesota. We met at the singles ward and were married in January 2005.

We now are in Orem. We just bought our first house last summer. It's a darling little condo in a nice suburb area.

We have 4 children. (Okay, 2 of them are dogs).... Christy our 2 year old just decided yesterday she was going to be a big girl and wear panties. Yay! no more pull ups. Her favorite color is Orange, and Pink, depending on the day.
Wesley is 7 months old and learning to crawl, pull himself up onto furniture and eat everything and anything he can put into his mouth. He is about the happiest person I know.
Daisy is our 1 year old Puggle. She is a sweet tempered little girl. She loves long walks and to play fetch. At the end of the day, she loves to just sit with the family.
Jasper is about 2 weeks younger than my Wesley. He is a pom a poo poo (pomeranian poodle) and is just the sweetest thing ever. He fits his name very well (he is named after Jasper Cullen of the Twilight Series).
Oh, and then there is Ziggy. My crack head parakeet. He loves seeds, especially the honey covered variety. He also likes to sunbathe and check himself out in the mirror.

And that's pretty much it. That's us. Maybe this week, I write a new blog each day really introducing each of us. I love my little family. We make a great set!
