Surgery

To those of you that don't know, I am getting major leg surgery on wednesday. I am getting really nervous. When I was 12 I had my right leg lengthened 2 2/1 inches. It made my leg crooked and I didn't want more surgery to fix it. So I left it a lone and in August my ankle started hurting so bad and sometimes I could barely walk. So after a few monthe of it not going away I decided to go to the doctor and figure out what was wrong. The doctor said that since my leg is so crooked it is straining the ligaments and grinding the bones in my ankle. And the only way to fix it is by getting surgery to straighten my leg. I am so bummed because the doctor is going to cut my bone and put a rod into the middle of it. I have staples in my other leg and he is going to take those out too. So, I am going to be on crutches for 2 1/2 months and then a boot or a cane. It will take about 5-6 months to heal. I am so sad that I am going to be away from my kids and not be able to take care of them by myself for awhile. I will be in the hospital for 2 days and I will keep you posted when I can, and let you know how it goes. Wish me luck!

I had to take a picture of him in his long johns

We went snowmobliling to the cabin this weekend and it was awesome! It was such a warm day on Friday. We didn't have to worry about the kids getting too cold. We heated up the cabin and just hung out for 2 days it was great. Colin had the bright idea of climbing on the roof and sliding down it like a huge slide. It was really fun but a little scary for me, but of course my kids just loved it. They are not scared of anything. I miss snowmobiling I don't go anymore because I always have a baby or am pregnant. I am glad that my kids are big enough to go now. Just like I did growing up! Seriously every weekend we went, my parents were snowmobiling freaks. We NEVER sat at home on a weekend. Enjoy the pics

First Tooth

Connor lost his first tooth! Now he looks a lot older. He was so brave and let his dad yank it out with some floss. Man, he is getting too old!

Connor's baptism

The most attractive outfits!

Connor got baptized on January 11, 2009. I am so proud of him, he made such a good decision. He sang a song all by himself at his baptism, it was the cutest thing ever! And Brennan almost fell into the font, but it was a good day. I want to thank all of the family and friends that supported him on his special day. We love you Conns!

Happy Birthday Col!

Its Colin's birthday today and I want to wish him a good one. He is the best ever and I want him to know how much we love him. You are such a good daddy and the best husband. I wouldn't change anything about you :).

Connor is 8!!!!!

Holy Crap, I cannot believe Conns turned eight years old. He had his birthday on friday and I am just amazed that the time had gone by so fast. I am wondering where my baby went. He has turned into such a handsome little boy. I am so glad that I am his mom he is such a great kid. He is the funniest kid you will ever meet, and is such a stud. He already has a few girlfriends, and gets love notes. He loves the ladies, and they love him. He can watch a movie once and quote a bunch of lines from it. It is so funny. He has a bunch of jokes, and makes up his own Chuck Norris jokes. He is a good older brother and always does what he is told. I never have to worry about him. He is sooo smart. He does his homework all by himself, and just finished reading Charlie and the chocolate factory all by himself. A hanger is his favorite toy, and he can play video games better than most adults. He cracks me up, and I just love him. We love you Connor, you are the best! I had to post a bunch of my favorite pics of him growing up. He was such a cutie I have to show all of you, how much he has grown!

Colin's Christmas present

We went to vegas to see Criss Angel's new show "Believe" this week and it was awesome! I loved going out of town without the kids. I felt like I kept forgetting something. But I did miss them lots and lots. I am glad that Colin enjoyed his present, he deserved it.
