Lacey and family

Wow I've been a bad blogger!

2010-01-10T20:15:00.000-08:00

Here is Christmas... Stok loved opening her presents and playing with her new toys! The nightgown she is wearing is the nightgown my mom dressed me in 20 years ago! Grandpa bought these button out butt jammies at Cabelas for her and would couldn't resist snapping a pick of her adorable lil bootie!

Stokleys First Birthday!!! Holy hell where has the time gone??? Where is my baby? She will be a year this Tuesday its insane! She had lots of guests and lots of presents!

This is the Tinkerbear me and Colt made Stok for her birthday. She loved it! Each one of her toys she went around to everyone in the room to share and play with lol.

She had her own little cake that she was able to devour... she first stuck her finger in and then her whole face and it went on and on from there.

Basically we are just now looking forward to an awesome 2010 and hope it takes us to good places and new things!

A quickie update!!!

2009-11-15T09:15:00.000-08:00

For starters Stokley started Walking on Nov. 6th!! She is getting so big its scary but I love her to death she has got the cutest personality. She loves to dance and sing and play with everyone. She says momma and dadda and dog and grandma and lots of other little mumbles...

I turned 21 a few days ago and had an awesome party with very close friends!

Me and Stok have both been sick the last couple days, well hers might be teeth which I hope will pass soon.

My life is pretty good other than no job but hoping that will change soon!

Much Love

Lacey

Wants a tattoo for her birthday!!!

2009-10-15T13:44:00.001-07:00

I have really really been wanting a new tatto. I want to get one for Stokley and I also want something else, not sure exactly what yet but ya..... Want One!!!

Stokley said momma!!

2009-09-20T14:01:00.000-07:00

So we were getting family/stokley pics yesterday and as we were doing some pics of us all walking together she randomly said "momma"!!!! She has been mumbling words for some time now... she started saying "hubba hubba" which was hilarios to hear and I think that word helped her to word out "momma"!

Here are some pics we took on the side yesterday on our camera cant wait to see how rach's pics come out!!!

Trip to the Zoo 8/23/09

2009-08-28T12:07:00.000-07:00

We wanted to wait till Stok was a little older so she could actually understand what was going on around her so we decided that she was ready. It was such a nice day to go. Not super crowded or anything. Stokley loved to watch all the animals and see all the new things around her.

Look mom im as big as a baby gorilla!

Riding the carousel with Alyssa, mommy didnt feel her stomach was up to the job so I took the pics lol.

K this snake is a creepy lil basterd. He was lying there bascically dead and then he caught glimpse of Stokley and raised up and stuck its face right up to the glass. Dont even think about making a meal outta my kid!

Cute baby kitty!

Jeff me and Stok!

Summerfest Baby Contest 2009

2009-06-13T10:59:00.000-07:00

What mommy doesnt think her baby is just the cutest? Well I think Stokley is lol so I entered her in the Cutest Baby Contest at Summerfest. Im not getting my hopes up on her winning but I still think why not give it a try... I still get to show off her little cuteness. She was so good for the judges and everything, she didnt cry or throw up on anyone lol.

Big girl bath time

2009-06-13T10:42:00.000-07:00

Stokley has grown out of her little tub so now she moves up to her big girl ducky tub. She absolutely loves baths and splashes all over the place. Thanks for the gift Mikelle!!!

Yay for Mother's Day!!!

2009-05-10T08:35:00.000-07:00

This is the night before it all started... 38 weeks pregnant, so nervous and yet so excited for the next day, which would become the first day of the rest of my life. Since the day you become a mother you life is no longer yours, its all theirs lol. The first time I saw Stokley I cried. I was so happy, nothing else mattered in life. I knew that she was the best thing in my life and that I was already wrapped around her little finger.

And here we are in the present day, 4 months later.... Holy crap time flies by!!! Im sad that she's growing up so fast but excited to watch her grow into a little woman.

Getting ears pierced

2009-05-01T21:06:00.000-07:00

So we took Stokley to get her ears pierced tonight... Here we are before....

One down....

Poor little Stok! But she looks cute and she only cried for a minute

First Foods

2009-05-01T20:39:00.000-07:00

We tried her First foods this week and she likes them... She started with Bananas and she had a hard time keeping them in her mouth....

Ok so things that bug me lol

2009-04-25T08:36:00.000-07:00

I told myself I shouldn't write one of these lists cuz then you see all your problems and annoyances right in front of you but here we go....

When I know now that Stok can sleep from 11pm to 10 am and she decides to wake up early one morning just to irritate mommy.

Colton not having a car and me allowing him to drive mine all the time and its me asking permission to use it.

Stupid Dish Network for my tv having no sound which makes no sense cuz the actual tv works fine its the sattelite.

Dish once again for racing through channels as I search for Saturday morning cartoons for Stok.

And what the hell is up with the Cartoons today? They are either trying to teach your kids spanish which im sorry that dont fly with me; THIS IS AMERICA AND TRUE AMERICANS SPEAK THE ENGLISH! sorry venting moment. But for real there is nothing on that I can see as something I want Stokley watching.

Girls who call themselves a Playboy Bunnie or wear clothes that say it. That seriously reminds me of little skanks in Jr high, your only allowed to wear it if you were actually in Playboy ok.

Girls who have no morals and are so skanky the will try and get on a guy who not only has a girlfriend but she is also carrying his child.

Ppl who can afford to go out on lavish fun dates like movies and dinner and bowling etc.

I hate sitting at work at the mall and seeing all these women who go to the mall on like a daily basis and shop shop shop, obviously they are living off their husbands cuz they obviously dont work cuz they are at the mall every damn day. That is such a Utah house wife thing, the whole point of housewife is to stay at the House lol.

Going to court and having to sit through all the other ppl to hear their verdicts, sorry for those who get bad ones.

Guys who go around jumping ppl in their own yards and get away with it for changing the story to the police.

The Orem PD. You guys can all go suck a big one for me! Thanks for letting the guilty go free and putting the innocent in jail so they can miss out on being with their family and seeing the special moment of their child being born.

Haha I could go on and on about hating the police... You can stop following my car around town waiting to see if you can find a speck of a reason to pull us over and do an illegal search, you have never found drugs in my car and you never will!

I hate being profiled by ppl. If you dont know me then you have no right to judge me! I may just be the most kick ass person you will ever meet but you wont know if you judge me first.

My flabby tummy and muffin tops. I went through this pregnancy with no stretch marks and came out at a good weight but I took it for granted and no im getting flabby.

Telling myself im going to eat good and go to the gym and then I eat myself stupid and sit on the couch lol

Damn you delicious Fast Food places you are my weakness. Its so simple to roll up to the drive thru and get something fattening off the dollar menu.

Fast Food places having nasty salads so you either make your own at home or you go out and spend $1o on one which is rediculous.

Ya so that about covers it for now but im sure I'll think of more.

Can't wait for Mothers Day!

2009-04-24T20:33:00.000-07:00

So this Mothers Day will not only be my first but it will be very special! I am so excited to be able to celebrate the holiday for myself this year. I cannot express to you the joy motherhood can bring to your life. Its amazing and I couldnt ask for it to be any different.

Below you will see the sketch for my tattoo that I am getting for Mothers Day! A friend of Coltons drew it up for me and I absolutely love it and cant wait.

Nap Time

2009-04-23T14:44:00.000-07:00

Yesterday Stok was feeling sick so I stayed home from work to take care of her. She slept most of the day... Here we are on the couch, she didnt like yesterdays heat wave and she spent most of the early evening in nothing but a diaper cuz her poor little body just got so hott and sweaty.

Here she is with daddy earlier yesterday morning. Oh and if you look close you can see she is sucking on her thumb lol aint it just the cutest!

Blessing day and Easter

2009-04-12T21:40:00.000-07:00

Today we did a 3 in 1... Today was my Blessing day, Easter and also my 3 month birthday! It was a crazy day and mommy dressed me up in not 1 but 2 uncomfortable dresses but I sucked it up and looked adorable. My great uncle Kenny blessed me and it was very sweet and a nice experience. Mommy and Daddy and our beautiful baby girl!
Colton loves her so much!

Great gma and Couzin Brit playing with me at Easter dinner.

Look how pretty I look in my Easter dress! (mommy looks cute too haha)

Stokley loves Bath Time!

2009-03-13T18:24:00.000-07:00

Hey Everyone I'm a month old today!

2009-02-12T14:26:00.000-08:00

Got her pics!

2009-02-11T11:19:00.000-08:00

Sorry its been awhile

2009-02-10T16:24:00.000-08:00

So I've been super busy with Stokley that I havent kept up with keeping you all notified of how things are going. So here is some events and some pics that I have taken over the last few weeks.

When we brought her home she had Jaundice and we had to have a Bilibed brought to the house so we could put her under the lights. We had to keep her on them as much as possible which she hated and I hated too. It took her a couple days to get it out of her system and I was so glad when they told us she was done because every morning we had to take her out in the cold to the hospital to get her little heel pricked and test her Biliruben levels to see if it was going down. We were all happy that she got better.

But because we took her out in the cold she got really congested in her nose and sounded like a little pig all the time cuz her poor little nose was stuffed. When she would be in her crib sleeping I would wake up all throughout the night even when she wasnt crying just to check and make sure she didnt stop breathing. It was so nerve-racking.

And oh the breastfeeding... ya that lasted a little over 3 weeks and then I was done. I really tried but it just wasnt working for the both of us. In week 2 she stopped feeding off of me so I was just pumping into a bottle and feeding it to her. Well I really wanted the bonding experience of her to feed off me so I got a nipple shield so she would eat from me. This worked but she would eat for about 3 minutes and then she would fall asleep. And I had so much milk, I would pump 6 oz from each breast every 2 hours. I was so engorged and would leak through everything. So I finally had enough and decided to dry up because I thought about how hard it would be once I went back to work.

Here are some pics I've just taken randomly over the last couple weeks...

Stokley Cienna is here!

2009-01-17T17:10:00.000-08:00

Born Monday January 12th, 2009 at 8:01pm. She weighed 6lbs 15oz and was 19 1/2 in. long. Daddy holding his lil girl for the first time. He loves her so much and he just cant get enough of her.

Mommy and baby. I just cant believe I am a mommy, its so surreal. She is perfect in every way!

Im being induced!

2009-01-09T14:48:00.000-08:00

Yes on Monaday the 12th I will go in the morning and start my induction! This has been a crazy couple of days.

The morning of the 7th I awoke to horrible pains at 3am! I just laid there in bed for about a half an hour to see if they would go away and the suckers kept getting worse. So I went to the hospital and got all hooked up to the monitors. They checked me each hour and I wasnt dialated so they decided to just give me a shot of morphine in my butt (which hurts like a mother by the way but did make my contractions go away) and sent me home around 6:30. I slept the whole day until about 3:30 that afternoon when I woke up to go to the bathroom and discovered I was bleeding. Scary shit im telling ya! So back to the hospital and on the monitors they discovered my blood pressure was bouncing from normal to high and my urine came back very high with protein. These are the 2 signs of preclamsia. When they checked me this time I was at a 1 and pretty efaced. At around 10 pm my blood pressure was going back to normal so they sent me home with a sleeping pill and a giant jug that I was to collect my urine in for the next 24 hours to test the protein. Well went home did all that and turned in my pee jug and called this morning to get my results. I was told that the protein in my urine was scary high and they want to induce me on monday if I dont go into labor sooner...

So ya that is the long story short so I will be going in on monday if this weekend goes well so yay baby almost here! I may not get back on here before then but i will put up pics as soon as we get home!

4 weeks left!

2008-12-29T22:13:00.000-08:00

So I have been kinda slacking on keeping you all updated on here but lets just say a lot has been going on and there is equally good and bad things. Im just trying to stay positive and not over stress myself. So to stay postive here is my latest ultrasound pic at 35 weeks! Just check out those pouty lips! She is going look so much like Colt I can already tell. You can even see the famous sunken in eyes that he and his brothers and sister have (from his dad's side) and his nose. Poor thing has no more room in there and her face is all squishy. " I shall call her my squishy" haha love Finding Nemo. She is estimating at 6 lbs but I am told that those estimates can be off by as much as a pound. Lol I am just not wanting a jumbo baby; no bigger than 8 lbs please ha ha. She has gone head down and as of todays visit her head is really far down and my cervix is starting to thin out. As much as I want her out soon I am now crossing my legs (litterally) hoping that Colton can be there! Some of you know the story and it will just be so unfair if he cannot be there to watch his baby girl be born!

So I am just taking things day by day and will see where lifes events take us into the new year! Speaking of, I hope everyone has a fabulous New Years!

Oh and I am getting pics done by Rachel tomorrow and I'm so excited! As soon as I get them, I will put them on here.

34 weeks

2008-12-15T21:18:00.000-08:00

Had my 34 week Dr.'s visit today... I've been having contractions the last couple of days, nothing major just lil ones here and there but my Dr. wanted to check my cervix to see if I have dialated. Sadly nothing, cervix is closed still and baby hasn't really descended too far down to really think any action will happen soon. Oh well only 6 weeks to go hopefully its more like four haha I am just so ready to see my baby girl and take on the mommy role! Next week is the ultrasound where we will see her and check on if she has gone head down yet and how big she is. Im so excited. Sorry there isn't much to report this week.

Oh go and see the movie Four Christmases, its freakin hilarious I was laughing so hard and it hurt my tummy.

Week 33 OMG!!!

2008-12-10T21:45:00.000-08:00

So here we are in the middle of my 33rd week of Pregnancy and all I have to say is holy crap!!! I could have my little girl like anytime really and that makes me an instant mommy! Don't take that wrong, I am so excited I could pee my pants ( no litterally she is right on my bladder using it like a punching bag). But its just like wow this is really happening. Soon all those baby clothes will have a little person to cover and keep warm. I will have a constant car companion to take around and show off all over town of the little miracle I created. It will be cries instead of kicks that keep me up all night and honestly I know she will be worth every little bit! I wanted to have some cool artsy looking photos and so I took these and then tweaked them a little bit to make a more dramatic look.

Only 8 weeks to go!

2008-12-01T21:35:00.000-08:00

This week you can compare baby's weight to a Jicama, whatever the hell that is... Baby wieghs 4 pounds and is around 17 inches long. This week baby's finger and toe nails are growing quite long and she could scratch herself in the womb. Ahh scary who knows what else she's scratching up in there lol.

So today I had a doctors visit and everything went well. We also pre-registered at the hospital so when I go into labor I will already be all checked in and I can get into that cute little buttless gown and into my room lol. Im getting so anxious I could pee my pants, no really it happens pretty much everytime I sneeze.

Oh another fun fact of my pregnancy; I developed a Salivary gland infection on Friday and my jaw, cheek and back of my ear swelled into this huge really painful lump. That is why you are not getting a pic this week lol but I will put one up soon. Im on antibiotics and tylenol for the pain and today it has felt a lot better.

So ya that is whats been going on this week so I'll keep ya posted.

Much love from Lacey and baby Stok!

OMG!!! I swallowed the turkey whole!

2008-11-27T18:44:00.000-08:00

Haha not really but I look as if I am smuggling the whole Turkey under my shirt... This Thanksgiving I am thankful to be about 32 weeks pregnant and healthy. Next year I will be thankful to have my baby girl!

Hope you all had a super Thanksgiving!!!

30 Weeks Preggers

2008-11-17T20:25:00.000-08:00

This week baby weighs about 3 pounds and is around 16 inches long. You can compare her in size to a Yorkie Terrier. Of course my baby is way cuter and has less hair ha ha. This week most of her development will be on her brain as it starts to wrinkle and fold. Her fingernails and toenails are fully grown in and she is shedding her lanugo (the hair that covered her body).

All this is just getting me more excited and anticipated for things to progress and her to finally get here.

Today I had a Dr.'s Appt and things went well. My blood pressure and sugar were all good and the gave me a kick chart so I can track her movements to make sure she stays active. When I talked to Dr. Young and told him about my constant hicks(mini contractions) he told me to watch them and chart them like I would the kicks and if I have more than 5 in one hour I need to lay down and see if I have more than 5 in an hour while laying and if I do than I need to go to the hospital because I could be going into preterm labor. So maybe Stok is trying to tell me she wants to meet me sooner just like I want to meet her. As long as she is healthy and fully grown of course. As much as I want her to be here soon I want a safe and healthy baby.

Ta ta for now!

Baby Shower!

2008-11-17T20:05:00.000-08:00

My Baby Shower was awesome. I really appreciate who came and shared the day with me. Got some really great gifts and ate really yummy food.

Me and my aunts prepping the snacks for the party.

Here is the display I did and the wonderful centerpiece is the Diaper Cake I made.

Here are some of my girls that came and showed their love... Cute baby Jayden I love that little guy.

Rachel can still look cute even in this picture lol.

Rachel and Mom posing.

My Fabulous Birthday!!!!

2008-11-09T10:35:00.000-08:00

Here the day started out @ Brick Oven for a lunch/dinner I like to call it a Linner lol. There's Me, Brit Barnes, Kimber, my cousins Raquel and Brittany behind Kimber lol.

Here's Mom and Aunt Traci with their big old grins enjoying themselves at the restaurant.

Me, Kimber and Britany, we have been best friends for over 12 years. Wow that makes me feel old to say that but it was nice for us to get together and have a fun day.
Brittany and Raquel making some funny faces at the bowling alley.

Mom posing with her ball.

Just us girls sitting pretty waiting for our turns to bowl.

The whole group,family and friends. My day couldn't have been any better. I had a blast and it was so nice to have a day for me!

Mine and Traci's birthdays are only a day apart, not in years tho lol. But we made our wishes and blew out the candles on our cake! Our pretty and pink cake! It was delicious; white cake, strawberry filling, and whipped cream frosting!

Here I am with my presents. I had a really great birthday and want to thank everyone who came and made my day special!

Aunt Traci when she opened the Seat covers that me, mom and alyssa got her for her birthday.

Me and my beautiful momma. Love her to death and don't know where I would be without all her love and support!

Baby Shower!

2008-11-06T18:41:00.000-08:00

This is my invitation for my baby shower on Saturday the 15th! Me, Mom, and Aunt Traci cut out, folded and put a sticker on each and every invitation. It was fun to be creative and I love how they turned out! I especially loved that we found the custom diaper pin stickers that we put her name on. Im getting so excited for things to move along and for her to get here. Hope to see you all at my shower!

Happy Halloween and Birthday!

2008-10-31T10:34:00.000-07:00

Happy Halloween to all! This is probably my favorite holiday but once again this year I am lame and doing nothing exciting. While my whole family goes Trick or Treating tonight I choose to stay and hand out candy with Aunt Traci and watch Halloween movies. I dont really feel like walking my preggo ass around the neighborhood this year, just too tired and walking long distances cramps up my back.

So I hope whatever you do this Halloween you enjoy it and make the most of this spooky fun holiday!

Also yesterday was my Aunt Laurie's birthday, she would have been 47 years old. Rest in Peace Aunt Laurie, we miss you! And to all those families being caused suffering by cancer I know your pain and just make the best of the times you have together. My Aunt Laurie did more in her last years than most of us do in our life time. So live your life to the fullest with no limits and no regrets!

We're 2/3's There!

2008-10-30T20:46:00.000-07:00

So here I am in the middle of my 27th week and as much as I love being pregnant I want to hold my baby girl in my arms. Yes I did say I love being pregnant however the last little while has become pretty uncomfortable. The movements are neat and cool to feel but once they get in your ribs and do it constantly especially when you are trying to sleep its not the funnest part. Haha sleep ya that doesnt really happen. I wake up to her hiccupps and movements probably at least 6 times a night. On average I am getting maybe 5 hours if that. I guess its all part of the prepping for when she comes and I am being awakened by cries all night long lol. But it is cool now not to only feel her move but to watch my belly and have it look like shes doing the worm in there or something. And to feel her move and react to hearing certain ppls voices... She defineltly knows who her daddy is cuz she goes bonkers when he rubs my belly and talks to her.

Also a thing I am constantly feeling is Braxton freaking Hicks! They dont hurt but are really uncomfortable and tight. I am hoping since I am feeling them so much that she is coming sooner! My doctor did say that I am showing two weeks ahead so either she is coming sooner than my due sate or I am just going to have a gigantor baby.

But ya me and Colt have been doing great and he is so cute about our baby. Before introducing ppl to me he rubs my belly and says thats my baby girl in there. Of course him being a guy and just the way he is he still has his boundaries with things. Mom is going with me to my birthing classes which is just fine. Colts laid back and its not like he cant support me properly if he doesnt know all the hoopla of labor. He will be the best labor partner and I cant wait for us to be in that room together and welcome our daughter together and be a family!

Cute as an Ear of Corn!

2008-10-09T19:19:00.000-07:00

This week baby is the size of an ear of corn. She is about 12 inches long and weighs a pound to a pound and a half. No wonder I have noticed me not being able to bend over or sit comfortably lol. She is taking up all the sweet room she can in there and stretching herself out good.

I love to sit and talk to her and feel her responses to my voice. She even starts moving when I am with Colt and she can hear him talking!

She may cause me some discomfort but I wouldn't change it for the world. I can't wait to see her when she is born but I know I will miss feeling her like crazy inside me knowing that she was all mine for those nine months and that I could protect her and keep her to myself!

6 Months Along!

2008-10-05T18:21:00.000-07:00

In this picture I have to say that I make pregnant look SEXY lol! I am truly loving my pregnant body right now I think it is just so cute and its a way to be kinda fat and ok with it.

Naked belly here. I am constantly laying in bed with my shirt up just watching my belly. I love to watch the little twitches and movements. You can littlerally see her kick, hiccup and even roll around across your belly!

Oh and I found this device at Babiesrus that I reccomend to all pregnant women... Its a prenatal heart listener. You put the device on your tummy and through the headphones you can hear her little heartbeat and kicks and movements. Stokley gets really active when I put the device on and she kicks and punches at the microphone lol.

More baby stuff of course!!!

2008-10-02T19:03:00.000-07:00

So far I have had four ultrasounds with zero successful dvd's! It upsets this mommy very much that I can't share her cute little movements with you all! So I will tell you a little from memory... On my 19 week visit where we found out we were having a little girl the offices dvd machine was broken so that one we could not even attempt to record. She was very active during that session. We litterally watched her kicking mommy's blatter on the screen. She also rubbed her eyes and tried to hide her face which she has done on every ultrasound since. We were able to get a pic of her with her hand on her hip tho which we found very amusing and diva-ish.

This week on Sept. 29 I went in for my 23 week checkup where we did another ultrasound with the hopes of getting it recorded. This time she was sleeping but still did a few cute things. We saw her yawn and stick out her tongue and once again hide her face with her arms. We got the dvd out of the machine and brought it home only to find that it didnt work :(

So we called the tech and she told me to come back on thurs and she would redo it and that she was very sorry. So today I went in and we did two ultrasounds! The first one once again did not work. So she tried again and we got to see her have the hiccupps and suck her thumb. She used one of her own dvds to hopefully ensure that it would work and I took it home and it didnt :(

So I dont know what to do but below I was able to get a profile picture of her to show you all.
Here you have my beautiful baby girl Stokley! She is so adorable and I love her so much already I dont know how much more I could love her when I finally hold her in my arms! So can you tell who she looks more like? I can tell you she has Colts long legs cuz we all know I am a midget. As for facial features its still a bit hard to tell but so far I think she looks a lot like colt. Her eyes are still forming and coming in but they kinda look like Colts too. Everyone knows the sunken-in eyes that his whole dads side has including all his brothers and sister. As for me I think she has my nose and hands.

Here is my tribute to halloween... Marley's first costume! I guess since I dont have my baby to dress up, Marley got to be my dummy lol. She doesnt really like it but I think she looks adorable!

And here is the magnificent diaper cake that I designed all by myself. It was a fun little craft to take my mind off things. And yes, I individually rolled up each diaper and set them in place and wrapped the ribbons and stuck in the flowers lol. Sitting with the cake is Stokleys first stuffed animal! Its green which matches all her crib stuff and me and mom have a big love for frogs so she will take on the tradition and pass it on to her future kids!

Got the furniture!!!

I just love all the browsing and shopping that comes with having a baby! And can I say that without my dear mother and all her support and help my little girl would not have a lot of things. With me still out of work she has really made sure that she helped in any way that she can to make sure her grandchild had all that she needed! I really appreciate everything my mother has done for me my whole life and now! This is an example of the crib and bed set that we got for Baby Stokley. I just love these colors and everything!

This is the changing table we got which is awesome cuz it has the top part of course to hold the baby and then the open shelf which I found these green box like things that you can find in my regisrty lol and then the cupboard part where you can keep all the diapering needs out of the way so things look pretty haha.

I'm sick of this "Bilingual" Bullshit!!!!!

2008-10-01T16:33:00.000-07:00

Here I am trying my hardest to get a descent job to help support my family and I keep getting turned down and they hire someone who is bilingual; who can speak fucking mexican! Since obviously in the country of America where the official language should be English and anyone who doesnt speak english should learn it but NO!!!! We accustom to them! We have to learn the language and know it to have a job. It doesnt matter what job either, offices, banks, and even fast food. I was in Wendy's the other day and someone went up to the front and needed someone who spoke spanish to help them! Who cant know enough of our language to freakin order a hamburger??? Its just such bull that it has to be this way! Sorry I have to vent over this. I do have friends who are of a spanish race but they at least took the time to learn the language and dont abuse their being in this country. They have enough respect to at least do that much. So if anyone knows of any jobs out there that wont turn me down just because I cant speak another language in the country of English, please let me know!!!!

Just a Friday!

2008-09-26T19:31:00.000-07:00

Right now is a little tough on me. I still havent found a job and im not supposed to stress my body out. Im determined to get a good job and work my butt off and make some money so I can spoil my little girl like she deserves and take care of her and give her the best life ever!!! Got some interviews going so just wish me luck and we'll see where things go.

I just got to keep my head up and not give up!

So I havent really kept up on here with belly pics. I mostly just had them on my myspace but for those who dont have myspace here is how you can see me and hear my updates.

This is one of the first pics I took of my belly as it was growing! Here I am fourteen weeks. This is about the time that my "Morning Sickness" was dying down and I noticed my tummy getting a little roundness.
Here in this pic I am seventeen weeks. "Morning Sickness" completely gone and I have started to feel what they call butterflies/movement. To me tho it felt more like Colt's favorite type of fighting called "Ong Buck" which you fight the person with your elbows and knees. Lol.
Here at nineteen weeks we have discovered that we are having a little girl who will be named Stokley Cienna Davis! The ultrasound was quite entertaining to watch as she kicked and turned and posed her cute lil self all over the screen for us to see. We also discovered that mommy aka me, is suffering from what they call "Round ligament pain" which is just my muscles stretching and because I am a smaller girl I just feel it more than say someone with more meat on their bones. Its not horrible its just a stretching sensation along my bikini line.
At twenty weeks nothing really new to report. Been having some "Braxton hicks" but pretty much everything going smoothly.
And here we are tonight at 22 weeks and four days I guess you would say. I feel her all the time but especially at night; she must be a night owl like her momma lol. My friend Amber who just had her adorable lil boy Jayden in July (who will be Stok's future boy toy lol) she told me that if you drink Orange juice in the morning than it wakes them up so they will be more active in the day and rest at night like mommy wants her to. I wonder if this routine will stick when she comes out; so that she is more active in the daytime and more tired at night. Most likely not, but hey a mom can have hope!

Getting excited early!

2008-09-14T19:30:00.000-07:00

So the Baby Shower we are planning on my family side is in November but I am already going nuts getting things arranged. We have our theme which I am keeping on the D.L. for now and I am gathering all the things needed to make this party! I have been all over the internet overusing the Google source for pics and descriptions on everything... Food, decor, invites, etc.

I just love all the fun planning and shopping when you are having a baby! You just get so giddy and feel like a little kid in a candy store (especially when I go to Baby Gap).

But ya it really is the most special time in your life when you are pregnant. Especially when I feel her. I especially love it when she has the hiccups. I know she probably doesn't enjoy it but it tickles me. Oh and mom was laying her head on my tummy to try and hear her heartbeat and she wasn't moving and then all of a sudden she kicked or punched mom right in the side of her head. Lol it was so funny.

But thats really all I have to report for now but I will keep the fun news coming!

We've hit the halfway mark!

2008-09-08T09:53:00.000-07:00

Today we have hit twenty weeks and I have now entered the fifth month. Baby Stokley is now the size of a coconut, 10 oz's and 6.5 inches long. She has been moving like crazy and killing poor mom and especially mommy's ciatic nerve! My left leg has been going out on me frequently, I get a pain right in the middle of my butt and it goes all the way down my leg. I also have knots in my back that make me walk funny. So basically if you see me walk I look pretty retarded.

So I have already got the shopping bug and have been finding outfits and blankets and such and pretty much have no control and I still have another twenty weeks till she gets here to charge up my credit cards and go crazy lol. But its all good fun and definetly worth it. I have also been going over stuff for my baby shower which isnt even until November so I do have some time with that lol.

Thanks for tuning in for my babbling, those of you who do haha!

It's a girl!

2008-09-03T08:19:00.000-07:00

So we have a little girl on the way. A big shocker to me and Colt, we were expecting a boy. Boys are more dominant in Colt's family but I guess it really depends on whats in the water lol. I know of 7 other girls who are pregnant right now, all having girls. We are still super excited though and she is so damn cute! The ultrasound tech was having so much trouble getting pics of her cuz she is moving so much. When we were looking at her feet you could see her litterally bike peddaling on my bladder. It was so cute as soon as we were told girl Colt pulled out the phone and started texting everyone he knew and he was watching her move and just was so amazed by it all.

Me and Colt went out to dinner that night to celebrate and he just had the biggest grin on his face and seemed so happy. He's already got the daddy glow! Then me and mom had to run to Target to pick up a few things and of course we went to baby stuff. I already found the Stroller/carseat that I want and looked at bedding patterns and got a little outfit. The outfit is technically for a boy but you can't tell, its choc. and white striped shirt and little choc. pants.

So ya she is super healthy and doing great. She weighs ten ounces already and she is just perfect. I know the nurses and doctors probably say this to all their patients but they kept saying how she was gonna be so beautiful and I really think so too!

R.I.P Flex Master Cheech

2008-08-15T12:25:00.000-07:00

August 14, 2008 my baby boy left us. We dont know what the cause of his getting sick was, but we think someone may have poisoned him. Which would be the worst thing someone could ever do because he was the sweetest puppy ever. He never bit anyone or even growled at anyone. He loved people and especially other dogs around the neighborhood. He especially had love for our baby girl Marley who is our other puppy.

I will never wake up to his sweet little face in the morning curled up in between colt and I waking us up with his big kisses and those cute little chink eyes. When Colt would leave for work in the mornings Cheech would take Colts place in the bed all curled up with me and wouldnt leave my side. I wont get to hear his cute howls and the little grunts and noises he would make. He really was the perfect dog and I dont know where I could find another even close to him.

Last night I got home and knew that Cheech was not himself. He couldnt even walk and wouldnt eat. I tried to nurse him back to health and stayed right by his side. He just kept getting worse and worse. His breathing started to get more and more shallow and then he stopped breathing at all. I had him curled up in my arms cradling him like a baby as he went. I cried and cried holding him wanting him to just come back. We will miss him terribly for I dont know how long but I keep picturing his face and all the cute little things and cant help myself from breaking out in tears. R.I.P Baby Boy im sorry there was nothing I could do for you. Believe me I would have done all I could to stop you from leaving me!

Summer Movies

2008-07-08T08:50:00.000-07:00

So me and Colt are pretty boring let alone broke so there are very few things we get to do on our summer nights. One thing we do is movies!!! Either renting or going to the movies. Some movies we have seen in theatres got bad reviews but the old ass loner men who review those movies wouldn't know a good flick if it bit em in the you-know-what!

Like Hancock for instance, me and Colt just loved it! Will Smith is like the best actor out right now and this movie had all elements in it. It was funny, yes some vulgar humor but honestly get over it if you dont want to see it than don't go but don't talk crap either; just a bunch of uptight mormons trying to get some attention! Anyways it was also action packed and just an overall good movie. You even wanted to cry in some parts. So if you haven't seen it and aren't afraid of a swear word or two then go see it!

Next movie is Indiana Jones. Once again bad reviews blah blah blah... I enjoyed it and Harrison Ford never looked better. Once again this movie was funny and suspenseful, overall good movie. It kept me interested the whole movie trying to see what would happen next.

We just went and saw The Love Guru last night and me and Colt we laughed so hard through the whole movie. We just love Mike Myers and the little things he adds to movies. It was just a super funny movie.

The funniest movie we have seen this summer and we just can't stop raving about is Kung Fu Panda. The voice is Jack Black and oh my hell I had tears running down my face this movie was so hilarious! If you enjoy Jack Black movies than you know that he always outs himself into the characters like his little songs and weird words, well they're not even really words but ya. We were histerical through this whole movie so if you want a good laugh then you have to go see this!!! Our favorite movie of the Summer so far.

If you dont like to go to the theatres and would rather curl up at home then go check out Blockbuster or Hollywood and rent some of the new relaeses. Some really good ones are; Fool's Gold, 10,000 B.C., The Other Boylen Girl, and Jumper. So if your pretty lame like us there's movies all around to take up the lame-ass hours of your day lol.

Cravings and Udates

2008-07-07T09:08:00.000-07:00

Hey everyone sorry I haven't been on in a while. I got a new job and just haven't had the time. Not too much exciting stuff has happened... The morning sickness has died down but I still get some waves here and there. I am craving anything salty and sour and especially fruit! We went to the grocery store the other day and I wentbuckwild in the produce section with peaches and nectarines, green apples and even lemons to make some homemade lemonade; I found recipes for really yummy lemaonade mixes with watermelon and blackberries!

Anways, lets see oh this afternoon I have my second Dr.'s appointment, Colt is coming with me and we may get to hear teh heartbeat today yay!!! I have been having trouble trying to scan the first ultrasound picture so I can put it up on here but have yet to be successful but it jsut looks like a little sea monkey right now so I will keep trying if I get newer pictures.

I am really wanting to buy stuff for the baby right now but since I still don't know what the sex is everyone says not to bother. But I can still go and get neutral clothes that could go for both and blankets and such lol. I am just really getting excited for everything!! My two friends Rachel and Amber are both within two to three weeks til there due date and it is just getting me more antisipated for my countdown.

Which reminds me in my first report I said that I was six weeks then but when I went to the doctors they told me I was not as far along. As of today I am 11 weeks along but things may still change so I will let you know if that happens.

Thats about all I have to report for now but I will try and get on here more often.

And so the morning sickness begins

2008-06-02T14:44:00.000-07:00

I knew I would jinx myself saying I wouldnt get it but this morning made it happen! Got to work this morning and was just feeling like total crap! Tried some crackers and sucessfully ate like three. I went into the bathroom to pee, another lovely symptom and came out of there with two things checked off the list. I hate puking more than anyone and try my hardest not to but it just wouldnt let me hold it down. I did feel slighty better after but still I dont want to puke anymore over the next few weeks til my second trimester!!! Ive already been offered ginger and tea by my dear co-worker Patti, but just the thought of tasting that made me want to puke! Oh well maybe I can find a cure of my own, I will see what I can come up with.

Mother in law and Skateboards

2008-05-22T15:30:00.000-07:00

Candida, Coltons mom, attempted to skateboard the other day and it ended the day tragically. Her, Johnny and the kids were at the Springville skatepark on monday evening just playing around when Candida wanted to try. She was just fine riding around and then she wanted to try a ramp. As she rolled up she changed her mind and tried to roll back well she went back and her foot was not in a good position and went she came down it twisted and cracked and she crumbled. Ambulances and all sorts of help rushed there. They had to knock her out to twist her foot back into place. They took her to Provo hospital for emergency surgery. They placed rods and screws to hold her foot together. As of today she is still there but she can walk around with the help of crutches and is hoping to go home tonight! So that will teach ya not to mess with a skateboard. I personally wont even place my feet on one for fear of something horrible. lol

An interesting Friday!!!

2008-05-18T15:44:00.000-07:00

I decided to get one of these for myself and anyone who wants to read it hope my life is interesting to you all...

Anyways friday was an interesting day... here's how it all began

Late, sick, tired and moody... you all know what that leads to. My body has teased me on this subject for months and always turned out negative until friday. Two weeks late and super tired and stomach aches so I went and got a test. First Response. It came with two, two lines means preg one means not, and only takes one min for results. So I do what you do with them and set it on the counter as I was washing my hands I watching the dark line appear just one so I finish washing my hands, grab the towel and glance back at the test something else was trying to appear, a second line!!! very faint but it was definetly there... so I grab the second stick and did it again, same result. HOLY CRAP!!! Called colt and told him so we took a drive down to planned parenthood and did a test there in their bathroom and went back to the waiting room. Minutes go by and the nurse called me back to the room. Positive six weeks preg due in January. Once again HOLY CRAP!!! So yes I am going to be a mommy. Excited, scared, crapping my pants with stress but excited.

So here's the last time I will be this size for awhile...

Six weeks and counting!
