20 Weeks & Counting....

Cute little baby belly! Ky & Mom


Jared can hardly wait!! Mitch with Bo & WinstonHalle, Ky & BrooklynKylie and her other baby Winston


Kylie is now half way!! She has had a pretty rough start with being sick..but hopefully the worst is behind her. She has the cutest little belly! We have really missed seeing them. Jared and the kids especally, (I try and see her every week or so) so we decided since they are soo busy with Kylie's school and both their jobs, we would go see them and take them dinner. It was a fun night. We took our dog BoBo with us, to meet their new puppy dog Winston. They were soo funny with eachother, at first they didnt like each other much..mostly beacuse they both wanted Steve's attention, but by the end of they night they were buddies! Me and the girls had crocheted some burp cloths and a blanket for baby Jack. The girls were soo excited to show Ky their surprise. Its soo fun to hear them talk about Jack and how excited they are for him to come. Im sure he will be here before we know it and our family will never be the same again! Cant wait!!

The Day A Mother Never Forgets!

It was Sunday October 23rd, we had invited Kylie & Steve over for dinner, nothing out of the norm...Steve says the prayer on the food....and during his prayer he says, "and please bless the baby inside Kylie's belly" What the heck? It took me a second to register what he had just said...that prayer could not end fast enough. I dont even think I said Amen.. At first I was in shock..then I cried. I was gonna be a grandma!!! The best day ever! - a day I will never forget!! She is due June 5th! Perfect because she graduates with her bachelors degree from the Uof U May 5th, and summer babies are the best! Steve also will be done and graduates in December of this year. Jared & I are sooo happy and can hardly wait! Jared talks about it all the time - he LOVES babies! And when Jared was first diagnosed with his brain tumor, his uncle Hal gave him a special blessing and promised him he would live long enough to have children & grandchildren, so for him, it's extra special! We love you Ky & Steve - Congrats!!!

Another trip to Huntsman....

Jared and I went up to Huntsman this morning for his every other month checkup. I felt like I had'nt been up their forever! At his last appt in December, Jared ended up cancelling it because he was too busy with work..(ha ha too busy to see if the tumor in your head has changed?) anyways he still had his MRI and Dr. Coleman called to confirm that everything looked great. And the appt before that Halle had broke her arm the night before, so I missed that one too! Anyways, soo it was great for me to go today and get the scoop! Again they said everything looks great. Dr C says it looks a little smaller here and there...but basically not any significant changes. Which is ok..he feels great and Chemo is still going good for him. He hardly ever gets sick, which is a blessing! So the plan is to keep him on the Chemo and go back in 2 months. I did talk to the doctor about my concerns with his short-term memory. He said its probably a side effect of the Radiation, bummer! But did suggest he carries a notebook around (because he hates electronic gagets), to jot down notes and things he needs to remember. Which is what Ive been telling him forever, but maybe he will listen to the dr!
