An Updated Rylee picture.....

(I know she has a binkie in her mouth...but you can still see how cute she is!)

Happy Birthday Aubree dear!!!!!!

Miss. Aubree had a birthday the day after we had Rylee. So we tried to make an extra effort to make the day special for her. So Bill promised her "6" special things, since she was now 6. The 6 special things were......

#1 Stuffed animal puppies from the dollar store

#2 A shake from Jack in the Box

#3 A trip to Build A Bear, to get another stuffed puppy!

#4 Lizzy the Lizard Webkinz

#5 Spending the morning with dad...which included dad opening the door at every stop and saying "my lady"

#6 Having lunch from Panda Express at the hospital with mom and dad.







Aubree's birthday was on Thursday the 4th, but the 1st opening that "Jump and Bounce" had was Monday. So on Monday Bill took Aubree and a couple of her friends to play. Unfortunately, as if having a baby born the day before her birthday wasn't crazy enough. The day we were going to "Jump and Bounce", Rylee got admitted back to the hospital to be under the billi lights. Luckily, despite all the craziness Aubree still had a great birthday.







We are so lucky to have Aubree in our lives! We love her like crazy, and enjoy the sweet spirit she brings to our family!

Who does she look like?

I think all she needs is a mustache!

RYLEE DENMARK

We had quite the surprise this month!
Almost 4 weeks before my actual due date little Miss. Rylee decided to make her grand entrance into this world!

You would think that baby number 6 would be a piece of cake to deliver...WRONG!!!
Rylee was by far my hardest labor and delivery!!
I think she may have changed her mind about wanting to come early...she didn't want to come out and ended up having to be vacuumed out!

This picture shows just how bad her head looked!



This picture was taken the next day, her head looks a lot better. Less swollen, but all the sores turned into blisters! OUCH!!


Everyone was so excited to finally get to meet Rylee.....



Because of all of Rylee's bruising from being sucked out, she has had a 1 night stay back at the hospital for jaundice, 1 trip to the Children's hospital ER for jaundice, and trips every other day since birth back to the hospital to have her jaundice levels tested! We've learned that bruising causes worse jaundice, and being born early also makes jaundice worse! Two strikes against us! Hopefully by the 1st of next week we can finally be done poking her poor little foot!!


We love Rylee like CRAZY and are so glad to have her here!

Finally the Christmas post..........

Of course there are the Christmas Eve jammies, and a new game to play on Christmas Eve.........







Christmas morning was a big hit for everyone! Everyone seemed to get all they wanted and more!

This week we have.........

Decorated sugar cookies









Had Dallin's birthday party, with an erupting volcano cake!








Decorated gingerbread houses




Had Madellyn's birthday party, a spa party that included a nailpolish cake.











We also had our first cub scout meeting, a 4th grade choir concert, church choir practice, a Christmas party, a dr. appointment, piano lessons, a late night viewing of "New Moon", and visiting teaching. Just to name a few of the other "events" of the week!

But through it all we manage to keep smiling!
