Catch-up





We have been really busy since last I posted. We were able to go and visit my sister in Utah and we had a great time. We went flying in the my brother-in-law's airplane, boating and to the Hoogle Zoo we had a really good time.

 

 

Coloring and tummy time

Our little girl is so cute and growing so fast. 

 A couple of weekends ago we went to Twin Falls to hang out with our good friends and we went shooting and we had a great time.We are lucky to have such great friends that we enjoy doing things together.

 Kali and Carter are such good friends they play very well together!

 

Not a long post but I thought I should at least post every couple of months.

Blessing day

This last Sunday we were able to bless our little angel and we had a fantastic day! Both my family and Michael's family were able to come and joy the fun.



We were so blessed to have so much support on this very special day. Unfortunately my family left before the camera got pulled out, however we were able to get some good ones of the Williams side. This is a very special picture since I married Michael this is the first time we had this many Williams together and we are still not all together, we sure missed the Chad and Tosha family, who were in Ohio enjoying their new little girl! We are hoping to someday get all together.

 Kamry's blessing day could not have gone better. The temperature was amazing and everyone pulled together to have an awesome lunch. Michael did an amazing job on the blessing it made me cry it was so sweet and tender. I am so extremely blessed to have such a awesome husband who holds the priesthood which blesses our family so much.

Best Friends!

Our sweet little family!

I love my Kiddos!!

 

 

I was able to make Kamry's dress which turned out so much better than I was thinking it would, which usually doesn't happen when making your own stuff, however I was pleasantly surprised by the results, and I had a ton of fun doing it! 

                         Kamry is such a little cutie and we love having here in our home!

 

 It has been one amazing month! We may be tired but our hearts are full and we could not ask for a more beautiful little girl or a sweeter little boy! Life is GREAT!!

Little Miss Kamry

It has now been two weeks, exactly, since our little girl come into our little family. It has been a very busy, but not so busy two weeks. It all started on July 1st when I had a routine doctor's appointment. Everything looked normal until Dr.Cox measured my stomach, and I was measuring smaller than the week previous. He ordered an ultrasound within 20 minutes and before the ultrasound Mike and I were already preparing ourselves to have the baby within the next couple of days, because of our history with Carter. It was almost the exact same experience as Carter just two weeks further into my pregnancy. That afternoon we tried to wait patiently for the Labor and Delivery to have a room for us, apparently every pregnant woman in Pocatello decided to have their baby and the same day. We didn't get a call until about 2:30 in the morning. Carter was all settled at Grandpa Williams so we grabbed our stuff and head up to the hospital. We were all checked in, IV started and monitors on by about 3 then the very nice nurse told us to try and get some sleep. However, she failed to turn down the heart beat monitor and it was extremely loud and then at about 4:30 the monitor ran out of paper and every thirty seconds there was a obnoxious beep to remind the nurse to change it. I am not very good at sleeping in hospital anyway, but this night was particularly hard.
        When morning finally came Dr.Cox came around about 8:30 and broke my water. Then things picked up. I asked for my epidural at about 1 then it was smooth sailings. Right before 5 my nurse that I had had since the morning checked me and said I was very close. At 5 my nurses shift was over and she introduced me to my new nurse. I think my new nurse had other people to check on and did not understand how close I was because she came around at about 5:15 and checked me and her eyes got really big and she said, "I think I should call Dr.Cox, this baby is going to walk out." She call my doctor and came back in and started to get things ready. Dr.Cox came in about 5:18 the nurse asked me to try a practice push and as I pushed everyone in the room said stop, don't push, because Dr.Cox was not yet ready to literally catch the baby. He then turned around and I started to laugh because he was smiling and trying to hurry so fast then I laughed again, and there was my beautiful baby girl. Dr.Cox didn't quite have enough time to get his gloves on. It was a very quick and funny delivery and the nurse as she was leaving said "I have never had anyone laugh their baby out."

The Fourth of July!

Mike has been working so hard on our yard this year and it had paid off it looks great!

We went to breakfast the morning of the fourth and then we drove around to look for the parade not really expecting to see it we found a perfect spot about 10 feet away from the parade. Carter and I were able to walk up and get some candy while Mike stayed in the air conditioned car with Kamry. Carter thought the parade was pretty sweet and loved all the horses and loud trucks and of course the candy. 

 We went to Dad Williams house for the fireworks! The wind was really bad so the Fireworks didn't actually start until about 11, which was really sad because Carter fell asleep and would not wake up for anything not even for the amazing fireworks. However, we were able to see people lighting off illegal fireworks which he loved. Kamry slept peacefully as well. It took a while to get home after the fireworks, but it was a perfect Fourth!

My parents came down on the July 5th and took us to lunch then watched the kiddos while Mike and I were able to go shopping and get some errands done. It was very nice to get out and get things done.

 Kamry at one week old!!

 

Andrea, Melia, Brooklyn (holding Kamry) and Sarah. My sisters came to Pocatello to go to Ross park and see Kamry. It was perfect because I was able to take Carter and go swimming with them while Mike, being the awesome husband that he is, watched Kamry. It was a lot of fun and the girls loved meeting their new cousin!

Chelsea loves holding Kamry and the fact that there are more girl cousins!

 

It has been such a crazy two weeks. It has been interesting to transition from one little munchkin to two. I feel truly happy and blessed to have our little girl here, safe and healthy. I will try to be better about blogging, but like I said I am now busy with two.

 

Kamry is so sweet and we absolutely love her so much! We would like to thank all of our friends and family for their support and love!

Tongue

Things are going really good for us lately we have been so busy. Mike had only a couple of weeks left of school and then a couple weeks after that the long awaited MCAT. I am still feeling really good. Today I had a funny thought I started to feel like the Violet character on Willy Wonka who chews the food gum and slowly starts to swell and turn purple, becoming a big, round, purple blueberry. However, my feet are the only body part turning purple (due to poor circulation and sitting in church for three hours) I am growing. Which I keep having to remind myself is a beautiful part of life. I love the fact that my body is going through changes I am truly blessed to have the amazing opportunity to create and carry one of God's children to this earth. In Sunday school today we talked about how all of our 'substance' here on earth is not ours at all but our Heavenly Father's, and we everything 'on loan' is what our teacher said. That made me think of our sweet little son and daughter on the way, and I thought I'm glad I am able to teach and nurture God's children for him here on earth. To someday return back to him in heaven.
Carter is doing really good we did have a little bit of a scare this last week. Carter had climbed up on a chair, as he does 50 times a day, and for some reason this time it had slipped and he hit his chin on the table causing his sharp little teeth to go right through his tongue. I am normally a very calm person, blood however bothers me, I hate to admit but its true. Mike, on the other hand, is not even remotely phased by blood, which is a good thing obviously because then his choice of profession would be a bit strange. Anyway, Carter's mouth was full of blood and it wasn't stopping. To me it looked like his tongue was cut all the way from the middle to the side and hanging as if he has almost bit it off, of course this caused me to flip maybe a bit more. After closer examination once the blood had stopped we could see the tongue was still attached and he had only bit through it, and not almost bitten it off. He was a really brave and tough and cried a lot less then let's say I would of under his circumstance. The next day was probably the hardest because food and water irritated his sore and he is his mother's son and loves to eat, so he got pretty frustrated at times. Now it is healing nicely and he loves to show it off to people who want to look at it.

 

The pictures don't quite do it justice but here they are!

Carter's New Bed!

We have had a great couple of weeks! For starters Grandpa finished the bunkbed that he has been building for Carter and we moved it into his room, and he LOVES it he sleeps in it really well. He jumps and laughs and plays on it all the time. Whenever we go in his room he points at the bed and say, 'granpa'. We love it!!
Spring break was awesome we were able to relax and do a lot of yard work. Mike's Dad came over and helped us clean out our garden and now we are ready for spring. We can't wait to start planting our garden. We are so blessed to have Dad Willaims to come by all the time and help us. He is such a great part of our lives and we love having him so close to us. Carter loves being able to go and hang out with Grandpa.
Mike has been working hard and is getting ready to take his MCAT at the end of May. I have been feeling really good and this little girl is active. I feel as though I have about a million things to do before this baby gets here. This pregnancy has seriously flown by I can't believe I am almost 26 weeks.

Check Out the New Bed!!

 

Thanks Grandpa!
