I think I have POST PARTUM BLUES!!

Got up this morning and felt a little down! WHAT"S UP WITH THAT??? I was on such a high yesterday with the birth of both babies and the rushing from one hospital to another that when I got home and finally in bed close to midnight, I had a hard time sleeping. Kinda had a bad night and ended up on the couch at 3AM. It was hot and I was uncomfortable! When I woke up this morning I had a ringer of a headache! Just wanna go see my newest babies (all 3) and do some bonding! Sometimes I hate to work!! This is one of them!Aaaahh, such is Life!

Our newest Grandbabies are here! This makes 21 !!

Wow! What a day! Between work and rushing to 2 differnt hospitals, I feel like I gave birth! Aren't they beautiful! We are so excited, happy and thankful they are here and all is well.Andrew has some playmates!

The day of the BIG MOVE

A person sure can accumulate alot in 5 years!!

We got lot's of help from family and ward famlies on Saturday when we helped move Stillman and Michelle into their new home!

Part of the Cleanup Crew!


Deedra, Michelle and Garrett! The 4 of us did the last bit of cleanup on the rental. Garrett was a big help! He loves to throw trash away! When we got to the new house Tammy came and worked on alphabetizing the movies and Deedra put away dishes. Donna and Bridget came to help but at that time, Tony and I were taking the trailer back to be stored. It was a big day for all concerned. A BIG THANKS to all who helped the kids move into their new home! Now it's BABY DAY! YEAH!!!

Tony and I met in 2002 at Jeff and Cynthia's ward garden. I was running scared ( after all, I'd only been divorced a short 13 years!!) so when Tony asked me out, I came up with a lame excuse as to why I couldn't go. He was patient (one of the many qualities I love about him) so he waited and waited and waited...... In February of 2004 I went to a wedding reception for Jeff and Cynthia Chandler's son, Aaron. I was thrilled to see Bob and Joyce Haverfield there. I grew up with their kid's in Missoula Montana. Their oldest son Dave was married to my best friend, JoDell. All of a sudden, I see a handsome man walking towards me and I was thinking, "where have I seen him before?... He looks so familiar!" Then it hit me, it was Tony Norton...the man from the garden... the one I lied to when he asked me out! I put my tail between my legs and high tailed it out of there! Well Joyce and Lynn (the sisters) put their heads together and decided we needed to hook up so they called JoDell and asked her to work her magic! JoDell promptly called me and asked if I would go out with Tony. I emphatically said NO! Well, JoDell is dang persistent and would not hang up the phone until I conceded to go on a date! (Some magic huh?) I finally told her I'd go just so I could get off the phone! I did have my own stipulation though and that was "Only if she and Dave would come to Boise and go with us." They were there that very week end! Our 1st date was March 19th 2004, we were engaged April 30th and married June 26th 2004!
