Isabella the pirate!!

Her brothers taught her how to sword fight just before bed! Of course she was giggling and chopping the boys with the sword.... until the camera came out. It's the jinx of the camera.

Bear Lake Luau!!

The Bear Lake monster tractor!!
Raise your hand if your excited to go to Bear Lake (really they were happy)
Playing chicken with the cousins to see who can go the furthest!
And to top it off the Big Momma in her mu mu driving to our family luau! I chose to drive to help prevent motion sickness (sorry Mitchial in the backseat). It was funny as we were driving through Logan Canyon we were stuck following a big semi, every sharp turn you would hear Timothy yelling from the back...."hold on we are going to tip over!!" Every turn I heard him telling me to slow down because we were tipping. From his view it did look like the truck was going over.
I have always hating driving over bridges and in canyons. I believe I have passed the fear on. :}
Through the years I have found that if I am the one driving it isn't' so bad, I did have to laugh when Guy finally told me to slow down because hearing the squealing of tires going around turn isn't comforting. I reassured him it happens when he drives too.
We loved getting together with my sister and her family and 2 of my brothers and their families.
The food was awesome: pulled sweet pork, terriyaki chicken, rice, coconut rolls, macaroni salad, lava cake, ice cream ect.... What a wonderful luau. It rained just as dinner was being served, but it rains in Hawaii too, right?
Thanks family for the get together even if we came home with 3 frogs and a ton of shells (found in the bottom of my washer:0

Can chairs get chicken pox?

Can you see the green marker chicken pox on the chair?
Believe me they are there. Our dear "tornado Tim" Told me
he didn't draw on the chair, it has chicken pox. Mmmmmm,
what do you say to that......

This next picture is what he looked like running
down the street. Mitchial brought home a new book
from school, Aliens love underpants. I wondered
about the title but after quickly skimming through
the pages it looked fine. Well as I walked to my neighbor
who just moved in a month ago, I noticed underwear in the driveway.
I made a funny comment to her about we keep our personals in our
house. She just looked at me for a minute then starts laughing, "those
are YOUR personals". Apparently Tim read the book and thought
it would be funny to wear alien underwear to his friends house.
Nice.....one for the neighborhood newsletter!

Bella's 1st and hopefully last surgery!!

Good morning sunshine!
Good thing you don't know what's happening later!!






Our sweet Bella had a colonoscopy with biopsy and enzyme studies and a endoscopy with biopsy's and studies all at the same time. Poor thing went under ok but had a terrible time coming out of anesthesia. She screamed for about a hour:( The nurses kept asking me what to do because her blood pressure was out of control, her pulse was too high and she couldn't keep her O2 levels high enough. I felt like telling them it was their job, I don't know how to help her. I felt so helpless. I warned them that anytime her bowels get stimulated or bothered she freaks out. Luckily after much walking and bouncing and praying, they let us come home.

So what did we find out after all that.... she is one of those rare babies that is "allergic" to breast milk (or the lactose in it). So we are going to try lactase drops and pray that helps her gut!!! Cross your fingers and hope it works or this momma is going to get even crazier!!
